I work in software development. Almost all modern architecture would collapse without the open source ecosystem.

Also without open source the capitalist tech sector would collapse

1 and 3 are pretty directly political lol

In a transitioning economy where currency hasn’t been eliminated and people we consider disabled can get good employment that suits their capabilities it makes sense.

Is double genocide theory in the room with us now?

Yes, you repeatedly are equating communists with fascists which is the main rhetoric it uses to advance holocaust trivialization, you ass.

How does it justify the defense of ethnic cleansing you’ve engaged in this conversation?

Didn’t you just accuse me of gaslighting?

Lmao.

repackaged Russian fascist propaganda I see coming daily from the tankie community?

You need to open a history book specialized in how fascist systems exist and operate. Russia is literally just a belligerent bourgeois democracy. Putin is beholden to the oligarchs, a word for capitalists with an orientalist connotation. There is not the transition from primarily extracting increases of productivity from abstract surplus labor value to concrete labor value which marks fascism economically.

What “tankie community” lol? There isn’t a unified one. Do you mean us, who generally oppose the war and want a negotiated peace so Ukraine stops losing the war so expensively (in blood of conscripts)?

I am not lying about your words. I am telling you that equating communists and fascists (which you have repeatedly done) is incorrect, and holocaust trivialization, according to mainstream liberal historians, which you could literally look up right now instead of continuing to show your own ass and be incredibly offensive to a communist organizer who lost family to the fucking holocaust.

I literally lost ancestors to the holocaust. Stop carrying water for fascists by equating the people who ended the holocaust to them. You’re doing work to trivialize the holocaust, according to literally every prominent Jewish historian who studied the holocaust and has spoken about double genocide theory. This is literally a mainstream position outside of communist circles.

Either learn to prioritize not giving the nazis ammo over your desire to be a mini-mcCarthy or learn what the actual differences between communism and fascism are instead of relying on propaganda that benefits the nazis.

You literally called some communists fascists. You’re equating them with people who did the holocaust. Which is problematic.

You’re literally just carrying water for fascists, according to Jewish experts on the holocaust.

Which successful communists aren’t you insulting by comparing to fascists, which again, carries water for fascists

Oh, which successful communists are you talking about?

Also, double genocide theory being holocaust trivialization still applies as it refers to calling the USSR fascist, if you think it is an irrelevant insuniation take it up with the Jewish holocaust scholars.

Oh look, calling communists fascists

Surely people who do that aren’t supportive of double genocide theory, which Jewish holocaust scholars condemn as carrying water for nazism.

Deride us as woke next.

You do realize that the incentives of capitalism necessitate that right?

I agree but in this context I’m literally telling them to read about it.

I mean the stages of economic transition have been “fuedalism->capitalism-> socialism” as each one is progressively more efficient and supercedes the previous.

For more information, research “surplus army of labor”, “primitive accumulation”, and “accumulation by dispossession”.

No, it isnt. We at hexbear say “the illegal and undemocratic dissolution of the Soviet Union was the largest humanitarian disaster of the latter half of the twentieth century” and bemoan the loss for human rights(more notably for women, lgbt people, and ethnic minorities) caused by the destruction of the Eastern block.

What we say is that you have to look at the outcomes of weapon distribution by NATO to Ukraine.

Ukraine just wasted a lot of material on one last big push and they didn’t do squat. The Ukrainian state has exhausted its ability to conduct offensive operations, and attrition in both absolute quantity and in percentage has been on the Russian’s side since the second stage of the war, so what’s going to happen now is that Russia will slowly encroach on the rest of Ukraine until they meet their military and political objectives.

So, do we give them more weapons, make their losing war even bloodier for them and the Russians, or do we accept that they’ve lost, and stop giving the government more time to keep killing conscripts?

Don’t forget putting the OUN… er… ukrainian trident on that old monument.
