My favorite trope is how libs will inevitably start screeching about Russia when faced with the fact that their ideology is midwifing fascism.
Maybe i can think your meme is dumb while also agreeing that the people pictured are libs that I don't like. I just don't like dishonesty and your meme is just a dishonest smear instead of something with legitimate or logical basis. You're crowing about how societies self-govern while under invasion and idk how anyone other than fellow leftists are supposed to glean any meaning from this. How would your society select its leaders and continue to operate under such circumstances? I'm noticing the lack of any ideas being expressed here other than "liberals bad", which we all already know. This meme is just a lazy preach-to-the-choir meme and a waste of your propaganda efforts, really.
The only dishonesty here is in your own comment. We know what alternative systems to liberalism are, and there existing socialist states today. Pretending like nothing better is possible and nobody is offering any alternatives is the height of dishonesty.
Anybody who starts talking about Russia to distract from what's happening in their own liberal state descending into fascism is indeed a lib. It's amazing how intellectually impoverished you people are that you think your transparent straw man is going to convince anyone. Nobody was talking about Russia here at all. It doesn't matter what Russia is like, that's not the standard you're being held to. But of course liberal have no standards and stand for absolutely nothing.
What I find more amusing is that either is idiots trying to talk about Putin/Russia or people focusing on "doesn't hold elections", few people talking about the other leaders with abysmal approval.
It's always deflection with libs, these people are utterly incapable of honestly engaging with any criticism.
definitely a neoliberal
if platner can call himself a leftist; you too can call yourself a communist despite espousing unquestionably neoliberal points of view. lol
Subjectivism is common of liberals, who substitute materialist analysis with scary sounding buzzwords and moral phrasemongering. "Oligofascism" is an example, fascism is a well-studied phenomenon, "oligofascism" isn't a thing and it's being used to convey an emotional response.
lmfao nobody is supporting fascism to own the libs here, that's just an idiotic straw man you came up with being utterly unable to engage with the argument honestly
You're the only one talking about modern Russia here further highlighting your utter lack of intellectual integrity. Pathetic.
