I went there and was shocked to see them spreading disinformation about China and North Korea.
I pointed out to them that both countries have a double-frowny-face McFreedom™ rating from the billion-dollar non-profit Institute for CIA Facts, but they just laughed at me!
These people are as bad as Republicans when it comes to denying facts!
IMO we must remain steadfast in protecting ourselves from their way of thinking. Who’s with me?
While I hate tankies I love more. We should defeat them in the marketplace of ideas
Oh right sorry I that’s what I say about fascists, not communists
The scary commies are impossible to defeat in the marketplace of ideas. Instead, we must kill their leaders and force them into living conditions where they will never have the time or energy to organize.
Oh and don’t forget to brainwash the various groups of the working class into hating each other.
Ooh i like your new avatar

Fucking hexbears and their tankie shenanigans
I saw an unkempt owl making beans with the hexbear in the lemmy closet and one of the beans looked at me.
it’s the beans that really worry me. all that mexican propaganda cant be good for the soul.
Yes something something Ukraine. Russia bad. Something something save democracy. Russia bad. China bad. Ukraine wholesome. I don’t know anything about Iran or Persians but yes Iran bad.

yes iran bad, nuke them. they oppress women, bombing them will definitely fix this
in order to save women, we must obliterate countless women

Whoa whoa whoa whoa. I am NOT down with defederating from kitties.
Naw, it’s a Pokémon who is a cat
I think we should keep hexbear around but only if they restructure their arguments into burger analogies so that it’s less alienating to the American audience
look at this dope-ass burger
hexburger
Yumm!
What a banger emoji
We have the best emojis folksthe tie down to his crotch really ties it together for me
American Karl Marx (cw: meat):
According to our assumption the burger has double the value of fries. This, however, is only a quantitative difference, which is not yet of immediate interest to us. We recall, therefore, that if the value of a burger is twice as great as that of 10 fries, then 20 fries have the same amount of value as a burger. As values, a burger and fries are things of equal substance, objective expressions of similar labour. But cooking and serving are qualitatively different kinds of labour. Conditions of society, however, are found, wherein the very same person alternately cooks and serves; and both these modes of labouring are therefore merely modifications of the labour of one and the same individual, and are not yet specific definite functions of different individuals: just as the burger which our cook makes today, and the chicken sandwich which he is to make tomorrow only presuppose variations of the same individual labour. Appearance itself teaches, moreover, that in our capitalistic society a given portion of human labour is adduced alternately in the form of cooking or in the form of serving on each occasion in accordance with the shifting direction of the demand for labour. This changing of form which labour endures may occur not without friction – but it must occur. If one disregards the determinacy of productive activity and therefore disregards the useful character of labour, it remains true about it that it is an expenditure of human labour power. The labour of a cook and serving, although they are qualitatively different productive activities, are both productive expenditure of human brain, muscle, nerve, hand, etc., and are both in this sense human labour. They are merely two different forms of expending human labour power.
Did you show them the Freedrom graphs made by the American Burger Eagle Institute? Or maybe try the wikipedia page for those countries if that doesn’t work!
This is my go-to source when a tankie tries to act like they know what they’re talking about: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Totalitarianism
Whenever someone tries to call a humble democracy like the US a ‘regime’ like those evil Asian countries I just hit them with this bad boy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regime
Lol
dang i want to try an eagle burger now
They brought millions of Uighurs back to life without any memories of being genocided just to make me look gullible
Getting in before they inevitably brigade this thread 🙄
Their site is actually structured so they can see all the threads in one space and brigade them extra efficiently. That doesn’t sound like how Lemmy works to me.
Get this - one of them asked me to provide sources for my claims. As if that wasn’t bad enough, when I googled and posted the first four links I saw without reading them, they actually clicked on the links and went through each of them point-by-point and explained how none of them provide credible support my position.
At that point it was clear that it wasn’t possible to have any sort of reasonable conversation with them, so I just did the usual and called them a bot, then made a thread where I made up a story about them defending Pol Pot and said they were worse than fascists.
Source? Um, have you seen all those headlines from the past two years?
No, stop! Don’t analyze the text! Just glance and internalize the narrative.
I sent them the wikipedia for tianamen square and they told me wikipedia wasn’t an acceptable source! Then they linked me something and I said I had already read that they told me I was lying because it was the unabombers manifesto (incredibly bad faith to lie like that!) then they sent me a 1.5 hour long video “debunking” the claims about china and I said I wasn’t gonna watch that they sent me a picture with a pig with poop on it’s balls and called me a fascist for misgendering them! They’re completely unserious
I sent them the wikipedia for tianamen square and they told me wikipedia wasn’t an acceptable source!
The real play here is to scroll down to the bottom and see how many sources are cited in the article, and then say, “I provided 90 sources that prove I’m right and they still deny it!”
How unreasonable, just because all of your sources were just quoting shit Adrian Zenz made up for his God-given crusade against the evil CCP
Quoting zenz? That’s almost a primary source. These dorks don’t know who that is.
What you’re gonna see them do is quote an article that reports about reporting done by Radio Free Asia about the work of a scientist (if you do enough searching you’ll then figure out they’re talking about Zenz)One of my favorite “arguing with lemmyverse libs” posts of all time was something like “If I ctrl-f ‘Zenz’ in your sources how many hits will I get?” It was from @[email protected]
Lmao. I know robinn (don’t know his current @) has had quite a few takedowns like that too
That was my alt actually
So it was! Well done, excellent posting.
Yes PLEASE I went on hexbear and they were so MEAN to me please dont check my mod history

Honestly, to be honest, I am sorry to say this, I hate to say it, and I’m as leftist as they come,

Ironic someone calling themselves “Civility” would act this way

I once saw a Hexbear slap a baby and they LAUGHED when the baby started crying!
