Translation:

My personal opinion, for those who are interested, is that these two instances (Hexbear and Lemmygrad) are filled with what we call here nazbols, tankies, or even left-wing fascists.

They are primarily authoritarians who like to call themselves leftist, but use the same tools, have the same political vision, the same organization, and politically and historically tend to ally with “official” fascists as soon as a truly revolutionary leftist movement emerges.

I found it tolerable to “do nothing” as long as they stayed in their corners, but I had somewhat forgotten that an authoritarian remains an authoritarian and that the only place they deserve is down a well, not forgetting to strike the hands that try to escape with a big stick.

    "Leftists" who never read theory and live in the Global North inevitably side with Empire and Colonialism, and see people pushing for national liberation and revolution as dangerous to them personally. Anansi is the premier example of this, to the point of death threats against Communists.

    Let's analyze this.

    My personal opinion, for those who are interested, is that these two instances (Hexbear and Lemmygrad) are filled with what we call here nazbols, tankies, or even left-wing fascists.

    Extremely serious claims (among the ridiculous like the idea that there could be a "left-wing fascism), let's see how they justify it.

    They are primarily authoritarians who like to call themselves leftist, but use the same tools, have the same political vision, the same organization, and politically and historically tend to ally with “official” fascists as soon as a truly revolutionary leftist movement emerges.

    Primarily "authoritarians?" Who forms their political ideology around supporting use of authority, and not based on analysis of material conditions and who modern structures serve? This claim is left unsupported as though it is natural and obvious, as though people decide to be "authoritarian" by siding against Imperialism and colonialism, seeking power from siding with the people with less power. It's nonsense.

    Secondly, there is a claim of using the "same tools," as fascists, which is false. Communists are revolutionary, fascists work with the establishment. Communists support democracy via Democratic Centralism, fascists crush democracy. Communists are internationalists, fascists are nationalists. Communists support violence against oppressors as a tool of liberation, fascists support violence against the oppressed as a tool of submission. It's further nonsense.

    Finally, the idea that it is the Communists siding with fascists, and not the liberals and Social Democrats siding with the facsists against the Communists, is entirely absurd and historically revisionist. From the SPD siding against the KPD and with the NSDAP, to any major historical current, Communists have sided against the fascists.

    Anansi, read Blackshirts and Reds. You fundamentally have no idea what Communism and Fascism are, who the Communists and Fascists serve, and their adversarial relationship. This clouds your entire worldview.

    I found it tolerable to “do nothing” as long as they stayed in their corners, but I had somewhat forgotten that an authoritarian remains an authoritarian and that the only place they deserve is down a well, not forgetting to strike the hands that try to escape with a big stick.

    Ending it with a call to violence against Communists, a time-honored tradition amongst fascists. In context, Anansi was projecting their own tendencies towards authoritarianism and fascism on the antifascist Communists. Shocker!

    I don't understand why they keep linking to your original comment as if you said something unhinged. I'm french myself and I agreed with what you said:

    • Yes, France should stop occupying the Sahel

    • Yes, France should give back all the gold it stole from Africa

    Anansi and Camus keep saying that they are leftists, but leftists are anti-colonial, so what does it make them if they disagree with that?

    Honestly, if the Lemmy userbase wasn't that small, it wouldn't surprise me that jlailu is a DGSI operation to stop french people from going too far left and actually start threatening the geopolitical interests of the french bourgeoisie, because the things those guy say really don't add up with who they say they are.

    Update:

    These brainless fascist morons want to report the site to whatever the fuck "Pharos" is (probably their equivalent of the SS - YEP literally the fucking SS) because they're angry at the france-cool emoji i-cant

    Imagine calling yourselves "leftists" while throwing a hissy fit and threatening to report some obscure website to the fascists bastards directly arming the genocide in gaza because we have an emoji of your precious imperialist symbol burning.

    Shout out to whoever https://lemmy.world/u/soumerd_removedataire is what a legend.

    historically tend to ally with “official” fascists

    Historically its always liberals who allied with fascists. 'First they came for communists' and all.

    et ont tendance politiquement et historiquement à s’allier aux fascistes “officiels” dès qu’un mouvement réellement de gauche révolutionnaire émerge.

    Is this even gaslighting or just pure fantasy? Any time "MAGA communists" (who it sounds like this person is referring to, although their brain seems to be smashed potatoes incapable of thought) are brought up they get instantly shot down as the grifting, disingenuous pieces of trash that they are. Also, there's like 4 of them.

    If you're gonna try these lies... try harder? I guess? Or don't?

    Also.......... French. Come on, guy. If you're French, speaking French, maybe also just don't do this. Extra layer of embarrassment.

    Historically-speaking anansi tend to associate closely with extremely young people and wear an open hair-on-your-chest-BHL shirt

    damn you can write any thing with "historically-speaking" before it and it becomes true!
