The White Army was a group loyal to the Tsar, and fought the Red Army in order to reinstate the Tsarist system. After the Soviets won the Russian Civil War, many former White Army members were persecuted for their crimes by the Soviet Justice System.
The authority on who was or was not a fascist was the Soviet Justice System, and the people of the Soviet Union. I linked Russian Justice since it does a good job laying out how the USSR’s justice system and courts worked. I think you’re deeply confused if you’re insinuating that I am the one who made those decisions, or intend to do so.
The White Army was a group loyal to the Tsar and blah blah blah commie BS
My man, I am a libertarian. Fuck whatever your interpretation of a big government utopia is, because it is most likely wrong.
That being said, I am fully aware of the flaws in my ideology - and there are many - but I enjoy libertarianism because it allows me to tell people like you to “GET OFF MY LAWN!” and not feel morally wrong for it.
“I like being a libertarian because it allows me to be selfish, ignorant and rude while still feeling morally justified in all my actions” at least I know my party is a fucking joke, unlike those weak, useless Democrats and fascist Republicans who wouldn’t know what ‘freedom’ actually was if it bit them in the ass.
You didn’t really disagree, though, you just refused to actually respond and then called me a “fucking commie.” You do understand how that can be percieved as being irrationally angry, right? You showed no rationality, and were throwing insults at me.
Though I am a Communist and don’t really take offense by it.
ou just refused to actually respond and then called me a “fucking commie.” You do understand how that can be percieved as being irrationally angry, right? … Though I am a Communist and don’t really take offense by it.
LMAO you can’t seem to make up your mind as to whether or not you’re going to take being called a communist as an insult or a compliment.
Seems you can’t even figure out if you’re mad or not. Maybe figure that out first, before continuing this conversation.
It’s more that I’m aware that the purpose of calling me a “fucking commie” was not said with kindness, though I am a Communist so that “insult” doesn’t really hurt. I’m not really mad, just disappointed, was hoping you would respond to my points instead of plugging your ears when shown irrefutable facts.
LMAO you can’t even figure out that communism doesn’t work, so your opinion on what is and is not an ‘irrefutable fact’ is highly questionable at best.
That being said, I am fully aware of the flaws in my ideology - and there are many - but I enjoy libertarianism because it allows me to tell people like you to “GET OFF MY LAWN!” and not feel morally wrong for it.
Lmao I’ve never seen someone so explicitly accept that they picked their ideology out at the supermarket.
See, ideas generally fall into two categories, which I call “manmade” and “natural.” “Manmade” ideas are ideas that are specifically crafted to have mass market appeal, to fulfill some psychological urge of some demographic, whereas “natural” ideas are just reflections of the world as it actually exists. Libertarianism is a perfect manmade ideology, it allows you to tell “the man” to fuck off, to “GET OFF MY LAWN!” Who cares if the ideology is actually correct or capable of producing a functioning system? All that matters is that it makes you feel good. It’s no different from people who believe in quack medicine or crystal healing or whatever, it’s “I want to believe.”
People just want to go down to the supermarket and look through all different brands of ideologies until they find the one that really suits their own personal style, and then they bring it home and put it up on the mantle and polish it every day and keep it there, they would never dream of actually using it because they might get dirt on it, and anyway it would probably break since it’s not designed for that, it’s just there to look pretty. A proper ideology should be used so often it’s kept in the toolshed, where it’s rough and worn and not pretty to look at, but it’s designed to actually get the job done, and that ideology should be just as suitable whether you’re a nuerodivergent trans software developer or a Guatemalan dirt farmer. Because the truth is the truth no matter who you are or what your style is.
If you recognize that you only like libertarianism because it makes you feel good to believe in it, then you need to reject it immediately. You don’t just go through live believing whatever makes you feel good regardless of reason or evidence… do you?
Lmao I’ve never seen someone so explicitly accept that they picked their ideology out at the supermarket.
And you still haven’t, because they don’t sell ideologies in supermarkets.
Let me put it this way: Democrats are weak and useless, and - let’s be real - I’m a white man, so most of them don’t want me around and don’t have any respect for me.
Furthermore, there are many, many American voters out there who will simply not vote for a Democrat no matter what. Therefore, I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s more constructive to try and persuade Republican voters to vote Libertarian instead of MAGA, rather than work with commies and Democrats who don’t really even want me around in the first place.

Hey, beats being a fucking commie.
“I like being a libertarian because it allows me to be selfish, ignorant and rude while still feeling morally justified in all my actions”
Fixed that for you.
Instead of malding, coping, and seething, would it kill you to engage in the “marketplace of ideas” libertarians tend to love?
You people really are obsessed with the idea of people who disagree with you getting irrationally angry, huh?
Why does it bring you joy to know that you made someone else’s day a little worse?

In your libertarian society, what happens if I’m on your lawn with 3 of my friends? And we refuse to “get off your lawn”? Then what will you do?
Ever see that movie “Gran Torino”?
We have guns too
Why are you so obsessed with trespassing on other people’s property with guns?
Sounds like you and your friends are just out looking to cause trouble and pick fights like a group of hoodlums. Are you and your buddies in a gang?
We would kick you out of your own house and there would be nothing you could do about it in your libertarian world
