Comment on Has anyone else noticed the strong pro CCP and anti-west vibes here?

Unfortunately there are just enough asshats there to taint the entire userbase. I find myself looking askance at any @lemmy.ml, also @hexbear - IMO it’s well deserved. I’d recommend another instance besides those if you want to be taken seriously.

Oh it is deserved, it’s bad leadership, along with a sort of hierarchy, they have like enforcer types as well as their partizans.
If you say the wrong thing they will endlessly troll you, not just from their instance, from other non tankie instances.
Hexbear is the worst.
That said, they have a lot of cool users, you just have to stick to certain issues, politics is a waste of time. Yes things are bad in the west they agree, oh you want to improve it? Fuck you, (their attitude towards me and others not you personally,) there is no making it better only full scale revolution will help, they will say.

All the cool communists are out in the real world, robbing banks or something.

I though they were running food banks and offering legal aid to poor folks.

Anarchists. Those are anarchists your thinking of.
The communists are doing the thing they do best. Enjoying comfortable positions in western democracies.

People who think Anarchy can actually work are dumb, though. It could only ever really work within a small community and where you can just kick people out when they suck.
