So you’re a liberal. Facts.
What the fuck are you even talking about. Go back to bed. I'm not an idiot and I'm not falling for your shit.
But you want people to fall for your shit. This isn’t Reddit. We’re not all idiots.
No, I want you to shut the fuck up and go back to bed. I don't care what you fall for except maybe out a window.
Your hostility belies your intentions. Just accept that you are a liberal. And that’s okay. Own it. But stop pretending to be an actual leftist while spewing liberal propaganda.
I haven't even said any propaganda. All of my comments are just telling you to fuck off: I'm being hostile because you've been disingenuous from your first comment and I don't engage with tankies. Anyway, go back to bed. Ideally forever.
I’m not disingenuous. I asked a question you never answered. I don’t even consider myself a Marxist Leninist. You throw out words like they don’t have meaning.
You asked a completely irrelevant question to deflect to a different subject, presumably because you thought I was American. Unfortunately I've slayed a lot of tankies and I know your tricks. I'm not falling for your misdirection.
I am American, you are not. That’s irrelevant. Still not a tankie, and you still haven’t answered the question which actually implies the answer by deduction. I’m not trying to trick you. I don’t even care if you’re a liberal. I’m surrounded by them. They aren’t bad people, just undereducated.
Edit: How many tankies have you slayed in 3 days?
About to be one more. (In case it was unclear, this is a metaphor and an alt.)
You slayed me so hard, metaphorically. Now answer the question:
If you don’t want to answer it, that’s fine. But maybe think about what that means.
I don't live under and don't want to live under either, because I am a radical anarchist and don't believe in states or borders. So, I did kind of answer your dumb, misdirecting, whataboutist false dichotomy with my first reply. Hope you are happy with the answer. It's bedtime now.
Was that difficult? I understand, that would be my view too. But as an anarchist, if it was a binary choice, and it might be, I would reluctantly choose to live under socialist Chinese rule. They are not perfect. But they at least have nationalized healthcare and house their homeless. That’s how I know I am a leftist. But labels don’t really matter when lives are concerned.
