    This will make its way to the right wing circles and get passed around unironically.

      Wait till someone says “you know that pic is ironic, right?” and the right-wings are surprised

    Be careful, your child may start to take extremist actions with their fellow lefties such as:

    1. Organizing or joining a union.
    2. Voting for increased taxes on the ultra-wealthy.
    3. Marching to protest police militarization and restrictions on women’s rights.
    4. Pushing for better pay, hours, and benefits in their workplace.

      Equality of outcomes is impossible. Equality of opportunity is the only the anyone every asks for. Aka, equity not equality.

    While I’m here:

    • Nazis can fuck off.
    • Commies can also fuck off.
    • Fuck capitalism
    • Cooperativism is the way.

      They actually are the symbols of the workers and do belong to the descriptions.

      It’s just that many bad actors have and are trying to steal the symbols, such as the Soviet Union and China. Those have no correlation with leftism but people associate them to the symbols

        Same response as a “Swastika is just a sun symbol”

        A symbol can change meaning depending on history. Hammer and sickle is the symbol of oppression, suffering, dictatorship, imperialism and inequality, and it’s meaning is influenced by the actions of soviet union and china.

          I didn’t say against that. The fascist powers have made their mark on the symbols that is true. As I said, it is what people associate.

          Do swastikas, hammers, stars etc. have positive meanings originally? Yes

          Have fascist dictatorships ussd those symbols with horrible atrocities in the past and even today? Yes

          Do people generally associate the latter? Yes

          I’m usually brigaded by fascist-minded and reactionary accounts

          Not allowed to call out dictatorships

            Wow, imagine thinking you’re so important, that people take time of their day to organise to organise downvoting some rando opinion, on a network that has no karma.

            Delusional.

            Easy to explain shitty opinions by crying “brigaded”. Equivalent to “fake news”.

              Lol I don’t care about them. They waste their time targeting us.

              There is no karma but it’s easy to push dissident content out of sight that way. They do that on every platform – attempt to silence.

              I don’t even share opinions (shitty or non-shitty) regarding these topics. I don’t matter that much

      Landlords are deemed worthy of oppression because they decide to let people die in the streets for their ideology. So yes, reasons.
