The US has never been close to that, and has been far worse than the USSR in that the US is formed on genocide of indigenous Americans, settler-colonialism, and massacring millions all over the world such as in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Cambodia, and more. It’s incomparable.
Wrongs that could be righted. But honestly. You’re not changing my mind. I’m not changing yours. I’ll fight against communism, just like I’ll fight against this proto-fascism forming in the U.S. I’ll try and keep no one from lining up in gas chamber or being pushed out of helicopters. Your ideology sucks ass. And so do Fascists. Good day. 🎉
Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.
I hope you never meet a real fascist in the flesh. Just as I hope to never meet a tankie/fascist in the flesh. Nasty people. Much better to be a keyboard warrior.

You’re not going to be doing effective fighting if you are afraid of engaging with raw data and discredit it on vibe alone.

Too sides of the same deluded coin.
