Neither is credible: they also claim that the weapons were made in Russia, not that they were given by Russia. Remember the whole “soviet union” thing, where a lot of Eastern European countries still have leftover arms and ammunition from?
I asked for a credible source for multiple assaults and you gave me one story from the NYT.
Theyre literally citing the new York times, I asked for credible sources regarding the SA claim.
I do when there is a risk of atrocity propaganda.
Okay, can you cite your new claims?
Rape happens all the time in war, but you’re claiming it is happening in a particular instance so I’m gonna need you to cite that or edit the comment.
Hey, please cite a reputable source for this or remove it.
I recognize some of these, do you have any proof they are AI generated? If not please edit your comment or delete it.
Hey, just as a heads up, “authoritarian” as a word is part of horseshoe theory and we don’t take kindly to that here.
Also saying someone is “just as reprehensible” as a fascist seems pretty damn trivializing of how bad fascism is.
You’re new here but this is stuff you’ll catch a ban for moving forward
Cite the sexual abuse stuff from a reputable source, or edit your comment.
I find this quite disingenuous. No one said that they are only thinking about the presidency? I sure as hell am not. I do everything I can in my local area to have socialist and leftist candidates representing me.
Expand your political imagination, this isn’t enough if you want to fight fascism.
Lol worker’s parties don’t need bourgeois elections to win power. See, China, ussr, Cuba
Literally expand your political imagination outside of the presidency please. Democrats are doing genocide right now, things are going to keep getting worse the longer we don’t build up a mass workers party. You can vote for Harris in November but building up a counter to Democrats and Republicans should be your primary concern.
A Japanese communist movement literally tried, they were put down by fascists.
Also Russia isn’t communist lol
Okay so you want a hot war between Russia and NATO and you think that would be less violent?
Where are you getting your information from?
That “lol” is quite unnecessary. There is no need to ridicule me. I would expect better from a mod of a community like this.
I dont need to, but I felt like it. I chose restraint and went with “lol” instead of really getting into how ridiculous and chauvinist of an opinion it is.
I didn’t say that is all fascism is, just that it is a tactic within fascism
You said this: “Murdering your political opponents is a fascist tactic.”
my point is just that political violence and murdering your political opponents does not work with democracy
I mean the Soviets murdered the hell out of nazis, so there is a counterexample for you. The cubans also murdered the hell out of high level regime collaborators when batista was overthrown. Another counterexample. I’m not advocating for murder within our political system but like, you’re not correct.
It literally isnt: fascism is capitalism in crisis and assassinations have gone on for most of human history, before the development of capitalism in the first place
Lol that minimizes what fascism actually is. Assassinations have happened throughout history, including before Capitalism and before the crisis within Capitalism that created fascism.
Hey, please refrain from horse shoe theory stuff in this community
Yeah no problem, and I appreciate your perspective on it as a Canadian. 😄
You’re going to need to show that you have a serious understanding here or you’re going to need to stop posting on the topic in this comm.
