Lmao this is a communist instance, what Nazi are you talking about?

This reads like satire. Are you on the right instance?

One of the things I hate about liberals is how they tone police people. The moment people who show genuine concern for everyone and are actually engaged in the analysis of issues affecting people worldwide is the moment they start condescendingly talk down to them.

They act like you pushing back against their arrogant self-importance and smugness is you being disrespectful. They're never interested in hearing what you have to say. To them, calling out their genocidal racism, chauvinist behavior, hypocrisy, tokenism, etc. is you "not being open-minded". Excuse me? Whenever I list a number of reasons for liberals being indistinguishable from fascists, you start acting like a fascist. You get all excited about how Trump is going to do mass deportations as if you've never done the same thing. You get upset about how I'm not platforming your fascist apologism. It's pretty rich of you to accuse me of "not being open-minded" when you literally dismiss all evidence of NATO funding Nazis in Ukraine as "Russian Propaganda".

These people love to infantilize entire peoples and cultures. They love generalizing entire populations because of their countries' political structures, instead of thinking about the material conditions of a specific country they obsess over.

Liberals are truly some of the most insufferable people. The fact that I'm the only communist in my mostly reactionary family, some of whom are liberals, is mentally exhausting.

I can't help these people anymore. I just need to avoid politics with anyone.

I'm with you on this. I try to be patient with people when talking about Palestine, but yeah. It's fucking exhausting talking to these kinds of people.

We went to our grandparents house to see our other relatives and I did not say a word to them at all. Most of them are reactionaries, and the only political discussion I heard was anti-China garbage. I didn't even eat at the table with them, I just stayed upstairs.

This is my second year of not talking about politics with my family.
