Death threats are an inappropriate and disproportiate response but have you considered that it is because you’re more irritating to the left than you are to the right? Especially given how right wingers historically are massively more violent?

You’re literally buying into the idea that politics can be separated from life which is what capitalist media benefits from in a roundabout way. Capitalists don’t want us to think “everything is political” because it threatens their power.
Humans are political animals, “my life isn’t political” is just denying yourself agency so you don’t have to worry about exercising a part of your consciousness that is healthy and normal to exercise.
Also you’re going off mainstream liberal dictionaries and not how the left as a cluster of organized movements has come to definitions for its working purposes. So you’re coming at it from an outside (liberal) perspective which reads as an indicator you’re a liberal.
Coming onto your property. And half of it is theirs now and you’re refusing to call a truce even though youve failed your big push to retake that half and are slowly losing more ground.
Here is the full context which still permits slavery so long as you’ve done a crime(and what counts as a crime can be modified to get the exact amount of slave labor you need)
Section 1. Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
Section 2. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.
I mean that is literally what they’re doing on a larger scale
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime
Yeah, it is only a couple million deaths and several million cases of long covid. /s
It didn’t abolish slavery though.
Do they have a right to live in a society that takes pandemics seriously so they don’t end up socially murdered?
Lemmy was written by literal communists and was full of literal communists until all the ledditors came over. You weren’t expecting the memes community on the communist reddit clone to have any political memes?
And you weren’t expecting it but were exposed to it, why are you complaining instead of blocking the community and going somewhere else. Do you feel like existing communities should bend over backwards to suit your preferences?
What about the rights of the immunocompromised, the sick, and the children and elderly?
True, I came into a general meme community not expecting it to be politically charged (common sense)
You’re really falling back on “common sense” huh?
to which it seems like people agree with me and had similar expectations…
I can see the same thread you can. This is a mischaracterization of the feedback you’ve received.
what’s your point?
Not everything is catering to you. You’re coming in to this with a really entitled attitude.
Yeah I might be pushing for universal liberation during the day but at night I put on my maga hat and try to create fun new unjust hierarchies /s
Honestly it sounds like you came into an already existing place and are upset that it doesn’t cater to you. Presumably this means you assume the default of things is catering to you.
“Tankie” is to liberals as “woke” is to conservative liberals and fascists.
In a transitioning economy where currency hasn’t been eliminated and people we consider disabled can get good employment that suits their capabilities it makes sense.
Okay but Stalin mostly walked the walk. 7 good fingers 3 rotten fingers and all that.
You’re calling a mainstream jewish expert on the holocaust insane for having a more informed opinion than you.
Remind me what happened with Allende yesterday in 1973, and what happened to the Indonesian communists?
