Two things to say here, one, the "trains ran on time" line was for Fascist Italy, not Nazi Germany, and two, it was never anything more than propaganda made to make people think that the fascist regime was efficient, when in reality it was quite the opposite, it was horribly corrupt and disorganized

The way that "at least Mussolini made the trains run on time" is still treated as fact by so many people isn't proof that terrible people do some things right, it's proof that too many people still fall for literal fascist propaganda

But I suppose it's fitting, because "Trump is going to take out the cartels!!" is also little more than propaganda to support a US invasion of Mexico

Awesome news

Edit: They got banned from Hexbear too

Me irl

If it isn't the biggest harassment campaign on the internet, then it's at least one of them

My thought about the person herself is that while she's a pretty garbage person, it's very clearly a result of the world around her treating her like shit on every level for basically her entire life, she grew up in a horrifically abusive right-wing household just to end up in constant attack by the worst people the internet's had to offer, with those people shaping every aspect of her "growth" from that point forward, to the point of the 4chan harassers even going so far as to give her multiple fake friends and people trying to "help" her just to end up being part of the harassment campaign so that she can't even know who she can trust even among people she knows IRL

Just a shitshow on every level and it's undeniable that she's a massive victim here even if she hasn't exactly been a good person herself (but again, that's largely because of how she's been a victim the whole time)

(I think CWC still uses she/her? Someone correct me if I'm wrong, it's been absolutely ages since I last checked for obvious reasons, I don't like looking into this stuff lol)

I have to be honest comrade, when the events that are going on are "a trans person is being harassed by one of the biggest bigoted serial harassers in the community for enforcing basic code of conduct rules", I think this kind of comment is unnecessary at best and harmful at worst, this is not a "both sides" issue by any means

This person you showed isn't even the freedesktop member responsible for the decision

Edit: To clarify, this isn't a "liberals vs alt-right" two-sided conflict, this is a "Nazis attacking vulnerable minorities" one-sided conflict, if this kind of behavior from Vaxry is tolerated and allowed then that puts all such people in the community at risk, including people like us

"Stop with the doom and gloom posts already! As bad as the situation can be it's never a good or smart idea to demoralize Ukraine supporters and defenders."

I just find it so hilarious how these people literally admit that their ability to pretend everything is alright is more important than the actual facts even if they're true 🤣 And of course, it's not even about the morale of Ukrainians, but the morale of the western Twitter users cheering for more bloodshed, it's funny how honest they are about it now

People were joking the other day that people would start calling Kyiv Independent "Russian propaganda" when they run out of other sources to complain about, I didn't think it would happen so soon lamo

Finally, they'll leave us alone instead of shitting up our threads lol

Going door to door to hand out printed copies of the entire ProleWiki

Welp, just blocked another person I thought was cool over on Mastodon because they were boosting concern trolling about "Israeli civilians"

Just a reminder that if you're a western "leftist" and you're suddenly against Palestine now that they're fighting back, you're literally less radical than a lot of libs lol

"Wait, it's all Palestine?"

Always has been

God I'm so sick of anarchists directly comparing Marxists to Nazis while pushing literal Nazi propagana themselves when they shit on the USSR

And then they call us a "cult" when they literally operate on an ideology of vibes and aesthetics

Oh, and can't forget how they spend more time attacking communists than they do attacking capitalism, fucking CIA "leftists"
