   @MarkAssPandi i see... i don't know much about russia, to be honest. But yes, the hammer and sickle symbol has got that bad reputation because of all the atrocities that happened in the name of "communism". And i don't want to use it either, i prefer to use the ancom flag instead.
   As for the states that call themselves communist, i'm personally as against those as with any other state out there. It's just my opinion.
   By the way, i saw the original post more like a shitpost, to some degree because of the hammer and sickle. :neocat_evil_3c:

     last time we had this debate you were defending lenin and the red terror, what's up about that btw?!
     
     do you still defend him?

     @getimiskon@fedi.getimiskon.xyz @MarkAssPandi@gejuchowo.pl @NeonPurpleStar@outerheaven.club the hammer and sickle were literally a bait because that's all capitalists can see when they hear the words "left wing"
     
     Also no, Soviet Union was not communist and Lenin himself said it's a "monopoly of the state for the good for the people", getting really sick of repeating myself on this one

     did i ever post a picture of his or anything supportive of him, so that you can accuse me for this? NO!
     
     on the very contrary you did defend lenin explicitly, as you tried to make him a positive figure who even allowed gay rights or something
     
     utter historical illeteracy

     @NeonPurpleStar@outerheaven.club @getimiskon@fedi.getimiskon.xyz @MarkAssPandi@gejuchowo.pl Do you still defend George Washington's genocide on native Americans?
     Also no, I did not "defend" the red terror. I just said it's better than the other guys were at the time
     But yeah, no, I get it. Given the choice between being on Nazi and Soviet side of the WW2, of course you'd resent the red terror so much that you'd join the former

     @witix @getimiskon you might just be part of the reason leftist movements keep having such a bad rep

     @NeonPurpleStar@outerheaven.club @getimiskon@fedi.getimiskon.xyz I mean, I did point it out because Lenin... did make it legal and it's about on most sources that aren't made by billionaire think-thanks? There's even mention of soviet authors saying "that homosexuality was a disease, but not one that prevented normal functioning in society"
     
     Far as fuck from even remotely good, but definitely better than what hitler and the capitalist buddies in america were doing.
     
     Also untagging Pandi as she probably doesn't want to be too involved this, some people have sensibility instead of starting a political argument uncw'd
