    Fascism is not growing anywhere. But a lot of “lefties” behave like fascists for sure, so people turn away from anything that smells left.

    On the other hand, modern definition of left includes authorisation ideologies and regimes, so no wonder that happens.

      This comment is making it very hard to follow my personal lemmy rule which states that I should not just comment ‘you are a fucking idiot’.

        We ought to ask the mod of this sub to just ban people like him on site and to stop giving hate speech a platform. That’s what we really ought to do

          Getting too ban-happy is one of the reasons people hated powermods on Reddit. I don’t think we should repeat that here.

          That guy just expressed an opinion (which I completely disagree with) and isn’t actively offending anyone, just downvote and move on.
