"#russia tries to forget, but!"
From https://t.me/Pravda_Gerashchenko
Two regimes, two names, one face: we tell readers of @Pravda_Gerashchenko how #Nazis and #communists fraternized in #Brest
On September 22, 1939, a parade took place that people in #Russia still don’t like to remember.
Meeting on the Bug
On September 1, 1939, the #Nazis attacked #Poland. Seventeen days later, under the pretext of defending "#blood_brothers," the #Soviet army carried out the same actions.
Next time liberals bring up the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, bring up the Enabling Act.
The #libs don't like being reminded that they wanted to stop the #communists at any cost. This meant enabling #Hitler to rise to power.
Don't think they won't do this again with Trump.
There's nothing inherently #western or #chauvinist about criticizing #China for very clearly and obviously not practicing #Marxism. Plenty of genuine #communists in the #GlobalSouth have criticized China for these same reasons.
The people screaming for a “popular front” are liberals. History tells us what happens w/ these coalitions.
We need a “united front” of #communists, #anarchists, #marxists #leninists, #abolitionists, #antifascists, etc. #Libs are excluded
Don’t rely on people who will be peacefully clapping as we get taken out by the state
I'm not interested in #communists holding power just to hold it for no reason. I want them to make transformative #actions that improve society's well-being. What's the point of winning just to win? #AOC has been one of the least productive members of #Congress since she was elected.
Say what you want about #communists but most of them don't sell out their beliefs. Communists fight for the right things because they're the right things to fight for not because they feel they need to win some popularity contest.
@alienghic @hannu_ikonen after the #bolsheviks decided set a stop to the true #communists in #Kronstadt in 1921, there not been anything that resembles of #communism
The #sovietrussia was an #authoritarian state pretending to follow #socialistic norms.
Waarom noemen we Stalinisten (autoritair communisten) "tankies"? Lees het hier https://peterstormt.nl/2023/09/06/over-tankies-en-tanks/ #tankies #authoritarians #communists
@wdlindsy
There are many people who call themselves #Christians & ignore parts of the #NewTestament. Let's look at the story of Ananias & Sapphira in the book of Acts. This tells the story of the earliest Christian community where the believers #shared all of their #wealth, clearly they were #communists. But Ananias & Sapphira conspired to sell some property & keep some of the money for themselves. They both were struck dead. #Jesus isn't the problem it's us Christians.

#america i speak to you as a combat #veteran who FOOLISHLY yet stubbornly, honored his vows and put his ASS in the fire on three tours in #Iraq for your Pathetic , so - called #AmeriK3an way of Life :
YOU have been SOLD to the Highest bidders and YOUR FKN PRESIDENT is a FKN TRAITOR and Useful IDIOT to the #Russian Dictator. He is far WORSE than A N Y of the ALLEGED evil #Communists or LEFTISTS you have so desperately maligned and feared.

ready for a small #ww2 #nazi #Germany #history lesson?
1. #fascism is simply the CONCENTRATION AND ABUSE OF POWER IN THE HAND OF A FEW #UNELECTED #ANTIDEMOCRATS (it usually ends in #catastrophe)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fasces
2. this #bs #historian https://youtu.be/kbWLE07NGcw?t=402 says #god was killed by the #nietzsche and the #bolshevik (the #communists #commies #soviets) and thus the so well educated #civilized #Germany did the #holocaust (ok does not make sense but well!?)
no the reason is much simpler, #Germany had SEVERE #economic problems and 1929 #stockmarket crash #USA demanding all loans back from #Germany made it worse + a (#money) #corrupted #Democracy (yes it happened before) destroyed a lot of #trust of the people
in #economic (!) desperation (and possibly other problems) they voted for #extremists as a kind of last resort (stupid) idea to fix things and in the beginning #Hitler did fix some things like #unemployment and #hunger in the #cities, but of course the #madmen had bigger goals, like rule the planet, no matter if he killed everyone in the process
also it seems like powerful elites in the #West #USA feared #communism and the nationalization of assets as #realestate and #factories, so these #elites welcomed a #radical #Germany that would fight #communism = the enemy of the rich to death (and they believed their #Hitler and did and died, #German soldiers that survived LITERATELY stated that they were not fighting the #Russian population but #communism !!! )
check this out: "So there are a lot of #American #elites who were involved in helping #finance and helping rearm and helping rebuild the #German #economy during this period. It’s a shameful episode. Oliver and I go into it in some depth in the documentary Untold History and the book of Untold History because we think it’s a very important story that gets swept under the carpet when we’re talking about these people being the greatest generation. A lot of those folks who we call the ‘greatest generation’ were #Nazi enablers, and many of them saw the #Nazis as a #bulwark against #Bolshevism, as against #communism, and were therefore happy and willing to support and allow and tolerate and turn a blind eye to the rearmament of Germany during this time, because they saw the Nazis as the way to stop the #Communists and the #SovietUnion”
Among those who explicitly stated that was Senator #HarryTruman, who on the floor of the Senate said if the #Germans are winning we support the #Russians, and if the #Russians are winning we support the #Germans. And that way let them kill as many of each other as possible. That was not #Roosevelt’s attitude."

At present, I think most people just view us as #book nerds who want to kill people. We need to get out there and convince people why #socialism is the correct path & why #capitalism is a dead end. Most people who hate #communists typically don't know any.
Not just #food, but #household supplies like #toiletpaper or dish #soap. Anything that helps people in need. Make it so people don't have to rely on food banks at #churches for this stuff. We want people to associate #communists with the people who help them out in their time of need.
Sorry #liberals, but anti-communism is fascism.
All the other "isms" that arise out of fascism is a consequence of the anti-communism. Why were #queers and #Jews targeted in #Germany (and all over #Europe, for that matter)? Most of them were #communists, or at least sympathized with #communism.
@chris
I would try that if I had an instagram account.
What happens if one tries to"#communists"? Inquisitive minds need to know.
I see no problem searching for "#democrats" on mastodon, BTW.
Dear fellow #leftists (but especially #communists): replace the word #tankie with #woke, and you’ll suddenly understand liberal discourse a lot better.
"Liberals have consistently sided with #fascists before ever giving ground to #communists. We saw it in the Weimar Republic, and we see it today with the US #Democrats. #Fascism does not challenge the status quo, i.e the #capitalist system, like #communism does. As such, #liberals will immediately side with those who wish to preserve #capitalism."
@Radical_EgoCom We are talking about #crimes of #communists, which modern communists try to silence. About this was my initial post. The man-made #famine in #Ukraine killing millions of people was a notorious example of such crimes committed by the #soviet authorities of the #USSR (to which that part of Ukraine belonged in the time of question), constructed following the ideas written in the works of #Lenin you are so intensively distributing. And it is only one on the list. I don't know which kind of happy experience of some ex-citizens should "statistically" overwhelm this.
In Ukraine, the totalitarian soviet regime is condemned by a law adopted by freely elected parlament, and I am not aware about any non-marginal group of citizens questioning this decision as of now. https://zakon.rada.gov.ua/laws/show/317-19#Text
