    I don’t know why this is getting downvoted. Communism is a pretty bad thing.

        The sickening irony of “theOSINTguy” talking about “one or two more genocides” when America has been complicit, has aided, and is abetting two genocides rn, with one JUST in the rear-view after Obama left office. You settlers are not slick.

          I think you forgetting rule number 1 of genocides. Its not a genocide if you win the war. Winners write history. Not saying its right that’s just how it is.

        According to them that’s not real communism as its never been tried properly. They are missing the fundamental problem that it can never be tried properly cos it can never be implemented successfully. But they don’t let that stop them.

              Considering you spelled “colonizer” with an ‘s’, you are really not doing yourself any favors

                Its called “English (traditional)” as opposed to the yanks who use “English (simplified)”. Remind me again what you Americans did to your native population? Three words pot kettle black.

                  and wow promoting that unhinged naming scheme for US/UK English, really another incredible echelon of coloniser-brain

                  Imagine asking a Black guy what crackers did to the natives. Exactly what they did are still doing to us, peckerwood.

                    Imagine assuming I’m part of the British minority who did the colonising and not the majority who got colonised and also learned proper English. I mean I’m neither so ur point is even more idiotic.

                  “what […] Americans did to [their] native population” you mean continuing the genocide that the British colonists enthusiastically started?

      I said it as a joke cos someone said capitalism its an excellent example of lemmys political bias. I find it very interesting that lemmy embodies so many of the ideals of the marketplace of idea a fundamentally libertarian concept yet it has a bias towards the extreme left that fundamentally hate the concept.
