i'm NOT even sure if this is the right community for me to post this on. that said, i got banned from hexbear (and now banned from posting stuff on !slop@hexbear.net from this lemmy instance) for "history of repeating us state department talking points, antisocialism and zionism" as well as possible "fedposting".

i DON'T usually complain about hexbear, but part is me's glad i got banned from hexbear - of course that site is mostly run by tankies.

of course you DON'T have to be a tankie to support marxism-leninism - i asked this question here, and some people said 'you DON'T have to support stalin to support ml'.

i think that the ussr would've been better off today if the ussr continued to led by a troika after lenin's death in 1924, but who am i to judge? i prefer lemmy.ml (another lemmy instance).

i apologize to any hexbear people reading this, and i'm sorry i called you tankies. seriously!

If a socialist revolution happened tomorrow in America, a whole lot of people would have to be locked up both for justice and for the safety of everybody else. ICE thugs, right wing militia types, police gangs, billionaire ghouls who would try to take back their ill-gotten riches, government officials complicit in the Gaza genocide, etc.
