I mean, if she wins a single primary delegate it’ll be her first.

Uh genocide in Gaza started under Biden. And Harris.

For one thing, the KGB stopped existing in the 1990s?

Look at you being authoritarian! You must be a fascist!

Hahahaha this shit is why nobody goes to your birthday party.

Fedora workstation can be a real nice no trouble install.

Personally love to add pop-shell extension to GNOME - if you use big monitors, it’s an awesome autotiler.

Give me one tangible, evidenced benefit

Deterrence. And unlike most criminal cases, these are people who do indeed have other options and can easily make a choice not to run rape rings for the wealthy, can easily choose not to fuck children, etc.

by suggesting that I respect my thinking on this topic.

Oh, so you don’t respect it either? Cool bro, fuck off now.

We can still make his corpse dance then

What you’re doing is no different from when the literal fascists say “You can’t just call anyone who disagrees with you a fascist!” I don’t. I call fascists fascists.

Actually it’s not. Because you’re calling people who are left-wing fascists. So either you don’t know what fascism is, or you don’t give a shit. Your nonsense about methodology rather than ideology is, per your own statements, meaningless.

And if you’re about to

You really do love playing with your little strawman dolls, don’t you?

If you’re incapable of making that distinction

No, your thought is just confused and stupid.

Have fun with your gymnastics to justify your defense of the status quo. Your arguments are just “nuh uh! tankies bad! everyone I don’t like is tankies!”. So nothing of value is lost when I block you now.

What is the basis for a charge of treason that you’re calling for? It sounds like you’re saying this should happen under US constitutional law, or?

Tankies are fucking assholes, fascists are fucking assholes. Both things can be true at once

Yeah, because you disagree with two things doesn’t make them equal. You want to bitch about tankies, go right ahead. You want to claim they’re equal to fascists, you’re doing the same stupidity liberals do with their horseshoe nonsense, and for the same reason - it lets you take the status quo as a best of all worlds, since anyone who opposes it is obviously an evil authoritarian asshole.

they think anyone who isn’t on their side is on the opposite side

I’m not a tankie, yet you keep referring to me as such. So.

I was criticizing tankies for accusing Mamdani of being a fascist, which is a ridiculous assertion on all levels

It is. You’re also pretending some schizo posting is an article in Pravda, which somehow still exists and is the party line. You make a strawman of what tankies believe, then claim anyone who disagrees with you is such, and pretend that’s not equally ridiculous.

I’m not so fucking stupid that I think communists and fascists believe in the same ideals

The terms you use certainly imply that. So you should probably stop doing that if you don’t want to be considered stupid in that regard.

Treason is defined in the constitution.

Fat man said it so it’s true, eh?!

What are you babbling about? I honestly have no clue.

Dems could pack the court as well

Cause I totally invented the term “red fash”

Oh, don’t worry, nobody’s accusing you of actually putting enough thought into things to invent that.

Lenin killed a bunch of communists after they beat him in an election

The bait and swtich of “all power to the Soviets” to “ummm actually the Party is the people” was actually Trotsky’s particular bullshit, but since the Bolsheviks took it, they own it.

so tankies gobble his dick

And you consider everyone who doesn’t swallow your particular brand of ineffective purity a tankie, it seems.

I don’t agree with plenty of things from the Bolsheviks - the critiques of Luxembourg I think were particularly apt and prescient. But, with that said, I also don’t let my very basic disagreement with that justify alliance with something far worse, the capitalist and fascist forces that the left as a whole opposes. And nonsense like “red fash” does exactly that. And usually seems to follow the Parenti phrased criticism of only allowing respect for revolutions that fail. You’re validating horseshoe theory, the most nonsense liberal rewriting of history.

You want, you can go kill all the Bolsheviks you really want to after the revolution. Until then, it’s the same counterproductive and idiotic posturing that the Stalinist for Fashion idiots demonstrate, except with a black flag instead of a red one.

Yes, Russia spent $100,000 on Facebook ads. And probably was tied in with stealing emails. And?

You’re moving goalposts here. There’s absolutely no evidence in Mueller or elsewhere that (a) Trump is a Russian agent (he’s quite possible of being an evil idiot on his own), or (b) that Russian actions in any way altered the results of the 2016 election.

and were found guilty lying about it.

They were found guilty of lying. The fact that’s ALL they were found guilty of is why the Mueller report was such a flop.

You go on defending them as much as you want.

I’m not defending anyone. I’m tired of watching supposed “resistance” to Trump and the GOP fascism be squandered on this idiotic conspiracy theory because it makes people like you feel like you’re living in a Le Carre novel.

Yeah, like I said, I grew up with this subject, so you can save the condescending bullshit. It’s pathetic. Apparently you can’t conceive that others can actually disagree with someone as amazing as you, and you alone, find your intellect to be.

and remains in line with fundamental values of liberal justice systems?

Start by actually enforcing laws against the powerful, with penniless and impotent lifetimes spent in prison

powerful interests hijacking the justice system?

The fact that those laws aren’t enforced against the powerful is exactly the “liberal” justice system - the best justice one can buy, and if you can’t afford it, you get none. That’s exactly the problem. It is hijacked now, by design. And why there does need to be a threat specifically against the powerful.

If all of these criminals thought they were facing the death penalty the crimes and corruption would just get worse

This is just a Louis CK bit of ‘at least you get the kid back’.

And no, I’m not calling for the death penalty in general for CSA.
