"hostile foreign government" as opposed to the local government which is very cool and gets along great with you. FFS your own government is 40x more hostile to you than China.

I keep thinking of the Muhammad Ali quote when he refused the draft for the Vietnam War.

I do feel like the American government is becoming so blatant in its corruption and evil that it's worse than the fake narrative these libs have in their head about China. At least before it wasn't so obvious to a casual observer.

Also wtf is up with conflating China and the "far right"? Is communism the far right? What is going on in Reddit radlib town?

[–] Z_Poster365@hexbear.net 9 points 8 hours ago

Libs must believe they are as “left as it gets” or their own moral vision of reality breaks down. So those to the left of them either get ignored or demonized as “actually rightwing” so they can sleep at night

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

They do the same thing as the right, where their politics is defined by "maximum freedom" and any divergence is a step towards the opposite pole. This is why rightists call Hitler a communist, and why radlibs call Stalin a fascist. They are unreformed libertarians lmao.

Liberals in general believe themselves to be the furthest left you can rationally be. Anything to their left is unreasonable, counterproductive, and functionally right-wing.

[–] Biggay@hexbear.net 19 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Some liberals even call themselves socialists because they saw a facebook meme saying the fire department is socialist.

[–] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 14 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Even in undergrad humanities classes I see this all the time from lib professors. "Even in capitalist countries, some socialist policies like public education and healthcare are adopted" ??? I guess it's good because it makes 'socialism' less of a scary word but it also makes it impossible to gauge what anyone is talking about because I mean expropriation of all major industries by a dictatorship of the proletariat, while they mean UBI or something.

This is nothing new. People have been doing this since well before Marx. Marxism was a reaction against these types of squishy utopian reformists who seem extremely abundant in western societies

If CHY-NA isn't far right then why do maps of earth usually place them all the way to the right? Check AND mate, tankie!

People don’t typically understand what these words mean.

[–] CutieBootieTootie@hexbear.net 31 points 12 hours ago

It doesn't have to make sense, it just needs to fit their interests (social democracy, the left wing of fascism).

[–] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 23 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Far right according to nato leftists is when you have rules of any kind, just like hexbear apparently is

[–] Collatz_problem@hexbear.net 4 points 6 hours ago

"Rule" and "right" are descended from the same word, checkmate, tankies.

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 15 points 10 hours ago

Seriously lol

China isn't shooting unarmed Americans 15 times in the back, or refusing to give them universal healthcare, or arguing for the ability to do MORE terrible things to Americans
