Sounds like you want it to be an echo chamber.

Western countries never face any consequences for their atrocities.

They were describing your process for judging countries, not endorsing it, lol.

A German posting Holocaust denial? What a non-surprise

Actually a huge number of people said it was fine that Harris supported Israel, as well as a huge number who engaged in heavy denialism about Harris' support of genocide.

Another reminder that BlueMaga don't consider Palestinians human; their complete extermination is just "boring corporatism"

You shouldn't treat politics as parasocial celebrity drama

Nah, there are plenty of people on unfederated instances who still obsess endlessly about hexbear.

If you'd actually read my post, you'd know my point wasn't about it being used "incorrectly".

people defending or denying historical acts of political violence. That’s what we mean when we say tankies are authoritarian.

Defeating the Nazis was an act of political violence, freeing slaves was an act of political violence, over throwing the feudal system was an act of political believe, driving out colonial empires is an act of political violence, enforcing property rights is an act of political violence, ceasing the means of production is an act of political violence.

See? This is exactly, exactly what I was talking about.

Not really, no. To a capitalist, all forms of leftism is 'authoritarian,' because they consider private property natural and oppose leftists 'stealing' in.

'Authoritarianism' just isn't a particularly useful term because nobody who uses is is ever actually categorically opposed to forcefully compelling people to do or not do things. They will always have a build in exception for what ever they consider to be 'legitimate authority', and what they consider justified authority will just depend on what political philosophy they ascribe to. So really calling the word just means "someone with a different political theory to me with regards to legitimate authority."
