A libertarian then? What are your views on the age of consent?

Oh man, I didn’t know the source. There are lots of bangers here, thanks for sharing

That’s right

So, I’m sure that as a proud lefty you understand the concept of critical support, but just in case: most of us are not pro-China/pro-Russia, but have support -with criticisms when warranted- of their role in ending the current global system of US hegemony. I won’t go into Russia too much, as I think they’re a terrible capitalist country with deeply regressive laws but I do support them in their fight against nato and in giving another option for global south countries to reach out to when it comes to trade and military support.

China to me is a much clearer example of a country that has the opportunity to become a superpower without the truly horrendous bloodshed that has been a feature of American dominance. They also, in my opinion, have shown themselves to take climate change much more seriously than most countries, and given the daily news stories of the devastation we’re seeing I’m very grateful that a large country is making the steps they are.

When it comes to the Stalin memes, some of it is ironic, but a lot of it is serious. Stalin wasn’t perfect and definitely made mistakes, but his leadership of the Soviet Union was instrumental in defeating nazism and for that alone he deserves critical support.

Hi, I just want to say that to many of us in hexbear what you see as an echo chamber is a safe space. Most of us live in capitalist countries and are constantly being exposed to capitalist propaganda.

Personally, I like having a place where I can discuss things important to me without having to be constantly contradicted by people with what I view as a very shallow understanding of history and geopolitics. It’s honestly kind of silly to pretend that people on the left don’t get their opinions and views challenged, we are absolutely inundated with different views on a daily basis

Because leftists understand that actual progress doesn’t come from voting?
