I guess I'm too online, because these threads take something out of me. Cassa posted this one because she saw a user on 196 claim there can be no true democracy under capitalism. (hexbear.net)

The comments are what you expect. All agree that we're psychopaths who support genocide and just want authority as a goal in itself. All agree we do no leftist praxis, I guess just based on vibes. One user wrote:

let’s be honest, they should be removed from society

which is cool. One-on-one, online or in person, I'm pretty patient with people like this, but when I see a whole thread like this with hundreds of upvotes and no pushback it makes me feel tired.

That reminds me of the time I quit using Reddit entirely after getting into an argument under a meme that was just a picture of Syngman Rhee with the caption "Upvote to scare the tankies" and like well over a thousand upvotes. Also people saying that mass imprisonment and executions of "Stalinists" was the same as post ww2 denazification (ironically, the position of a load of 196 users I once argued with on post ww2 denazification in the ussr is that it was authoritarian Stalinism)
