Reality has a “left bias”.
This is why all conservative subreddits have to curate who can post there because it easily shows that they are really a fringe group that don’t reflect the general population.
takeda@lemm.eeto World News@lemmy.world•CIA deputy director’s son killed while fighting for Russia in Ukraine, investigation claimsEnglish1·28 days agoOk, then it looks like we are on the same page on that.
Though, seeing tankies support Russia and China tells me they don’t care about social aspects of communism, so the only thing left is authoritarianism.
The term might be even more appropriate now as it originates, because they basically supported using tanks against the population to squash Hungarian Uprising. A totally authoritarian move.
At that point there’s not much difference between them and today’s far right. I mean tankies will openly say they support communism, but their actions shows that’s not what they are truly after.
To me it looks like tankies were product of Soviet propaganda while MAGA is a product of Russian propaganda, and that’s why they both share so many common views.
takeda@lemm.eeto World News@lemmy.world•CIA deputy director’s son killed while fighting for Russia in Ukraine, investigation claimsEnglish1·28 days agoThat’s because of corruption. As of now communism to be implemented requires authoritarianism. Authoritarianism is the main reason why communism is bad.
Currently both, tankies as well as far right don’t really care about socialism (if tankies cared about socialism they wouldn’t support China or Russia). All they are supporting is authoritarianism.
What far right labels as far left (in US at least) are people who support liberal democracy with protections and safety nets for working class. The “most radical” Bernie Sanders is exactly for that.
There might be actual communist parties in Europe, they hardly have any support.
takeda@lemm.eeto World News@lemmy.world•CIA deputy director’s son killed while fighting for Russia in Ukraine, investigation claimsEnglish22·28 days agoYes pro authoritarian far left that’s basically communism.
China is hardly a communism right now, Russia definitively isn’t a communism. So the current tankies that are worshipping Russia and China aren’t really for communism, they are only pro authoritarianism.
They are actually more aligned with MAGA than anything, the only difference is just that they don’t have problem openly supporting Russia and China.
Since this is world community there are people in other countries, and might be different definition what’s far left. But in US what authoritarians are labeling as far left are people who still want liberal democracy, but with social programs (what you have in EU, especially in Scandinavian countries). The “furthest left” politicians, Bernie Sanders is basically advocating for medical care for all Americans and taxes on rich. Basically so the government works for the people but against them.

Even China isn’t truly a communism, but they are both authoritarian.
takeda@lemm.eetoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•Elon Can’t Save Tesla By Leaving Washington0·29 days agoAs far as I know the VW CEO is not a Nazi sympathizer, only Elon is. The person is being purposefully misleading.
VW had it’s history from Nazi Germany, but it isn’t run by Nazi like Tesla.
But yeah, Tesla got infamous for poor quality, especially with cybertruck.
takeda@lemm.eetoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•Elon Can’t Save Tesla By Leaving Washington0·29 days agoCan you provide source on the VW CEO being sympathetic to Nazis?
It doesn’t have to be invisible.

Today’s programmers…
Back in the day people knew how to configure their code editors.
Make was created for building code, but many people are also using it as a command runner.
Just addresses that use case, but it’s not a replacement for either of those makes.

It was unthinkable that brexit would happen back then. But a lot of things described happened, because Putin is following this plan.
War in 2022 kind of put things sideways, but now it’s resuming with trump.
Those oligarchs have no loyalty to the countries they live in, they do whatever makes them richer. They are the most bribeable people.

Russia successfully was able to make UK withdraw through disinformation, and this only made UK weaker.

First of all, this is about being PoC not about having certain political view.
Or do you think there is a reason that people with different skin color vote certain way?
Second, if this was the community I encountered some time ago, then it was mere tagging so people couldn’t pretend to be someone who they aren’t. You still could post there without being black.
But anyway this was about political groups. I don’t see “leftists” subreddits requiring a purity check like I see on nearly every conservative subreddit.
