Hexbear crashes whenever I try to teach someone a damn lesson so here:

My post on the "no red brown alliance" banner should not have been removed. I got a lot of smug and condescending responses and the site kept hanging when I tried to reply. You seem to think that because non-Marxists like Red Scare, Maupin, and Infrared (all weirdos into Heidegger who HAVE NEVER READ MARXIST WRITING! THEY ADMIT IT! EVERY SINGLE ONE! JUST LIKE ZIZEK! STOP ENTERTAINING THESE PEOPLE!), or the deranged Fourth Political Theory people exist that means there is some tendency for alliance between Marxists and fascists. You are repurposing a club that was used to beat the CPUSA for its politics on Cuba and the USSR, & to slander the USSR for making a treaty with Hitler (Matt Christman did this recently btw he called it an alliance, you all have goopy brains). You're repurposing it against people who are literally just brown-brown. There's no red-brown. Goddamn It's like "no genocide denial" - sure it sounds nice to you in your imagination, but it has history. In reality it means banning everyone who denies Stalin & Mao killed 50 billion people, banning everyone who points out China isn't sterilizing Uyghurs, wholeheartedly eating the Victims of Communism Foundation propaganda or you don't get to speak. Ironically the first time I heard this phrase was from Alexander Reid-Ross (before he got ousted from Portland State for sexual harassment) posting about the Chapo subreddit, using analytics to prove they were fascist by association. The same way he used dubious anonymous twitter account examples to pin guilt by association on things. Also was used during the Iraq war & Syrian war as slander against antiwar communists, it's the exact same kind of thing as "why do communists think russia is based??? It's not communist silly!" thing but applied to Saddam Hussein and Assad. Really just goes to show how well Twitch reality show politics trojan horses NATO bullshit into people's minds

What exactly is the problem with these people anyways?

First guy I heard this phrase from - bear with me please - is Alexander Reid Ross. He wrote articles about the subredditstats/etc analytics on the Chapo subreddit calling them all fascists. Seriously. He wrote articles on Juche Nazi and White Nationalist Maoist twitter accounts he probably made. He got ousted from his university (portland state?) for sexual harassment. Anyways that's the most legitimate use of it in history all the other examples are worse. It's used to sell a completely wrong version of WWII that absolves the allies.

Neal what the fuck are you talking about

[Neal Katyal] argued that Hennepin County’s position was supported by the Statute of Gloucester of 1278, which gave feudal lords in England the ability to recover their land from tenants. Justice Neil Gorsuch told him, “I just don’t understand what on earth any of that history has to do with this case.”

What incident does he refer to with the oil well?

bird.trom.tf

> Canadian police bombed an oil well to frame climate protesters, coerced a couple to carry out a bomb plot to frame them for terrorism, raided Indigenous camps on behalf of oil interests, watched while an angry mob burned a Mi'kmaq lobster pound, evict homeless people from camps..
