While I think that's inevitably true for some, I also think that sentiment gets exaggerated/overblown for others. Tankies are definitely prevalent, but there are also a lot of non tankie communists, and communists who will readily admit the failings of the dictators claiming to be communists throughout history. Genocide is an important issue for many of them, and is what pushed them away from Democrats most recently

Either way though, im not trying to argue any of these are morally correct or better than any other viewpoint. But I do think it's undeniable that the left needs more unification globally if there is to be any meaningful resistance against the rise of fascism, and we have more in common with each other than we do with any of the oppressors in government now or the Nazis who support them

That's pretty much it, yeah. It's worth noting, there is a lot of animosity on here, particularly from .world, for .ml and .hexbear instances. Both are heavily communist, far left communities, and get a bad rep because they are known for not accommodating liberal or other not as left viewpoints. This was particularly heated around the election with disagreements about voting for liberals vs protest voting.

Fwiw I'm a strong believer if we are to organize against literal fascism we will need the liberal and the farther left to find enough common ground to work together. It's a......work in progress on here.

I also reported it as hostile and inappropriate. I am sure Google will do fuck all with that report but I enjoy being petty sometimes

Adding to this windows attempts to end all support for windows 10, obsoleting a large number of computers later this year. I never thought I'd say this but Linux has never looked better....

Maybe a helpful starting point, if this is a real question, is for you to define what it is you mean by Marxism and what you find unethical about it more specifically. I'm asking the ideology as a whole, not a specific instance or country that claims to have it. For example I don't think all marxists would be in agreement about if China's government is a good representation of marxism (even if they call themselves communists).

I don't think it makes me feel better to know that our descent into fascism is because gru promised 1MM rizz for it

This is good information, a few follow up questions:

  1. what does China gain by influencing the US to elect a fascist? It's clear what us billionaires gain, less so for China

  2. where are the breaks on choo choo train to Nazi America, based on this trend?

I'm always a bit dumbfounded how many people are apparently fine with this sort of thing. I wish this was obviously a death sentence or pr nightmare for the service but in practice it must not be for a lot of people, enough to make it worth attempting.

To be fair especially on that second accusation it probably depends how old "that girl you like" is
