Commies and “Fucking Commies” are two different categories. If we put them both on a spectrum, fucking commie would be at the extreme end while Commie would be at the lighter end. Dessalines is at the extreme end. Hence Fucking Commie!
I mean I was super happy to see when I first came to Lemmy and found out that communism and so on were common. It shows a healthy exchange of real differing views, it’s more similar to the old internet or BBS culture where you can find people who are for-real doing their own thing, not just Facebook or Google News or whatever other nightmare that the chaotic landscape that used to be the internet has become.
Since then, I’ve gotten more familiar with them, and the shine has come off the rose a little bit lol. But I say that because of the particular breed of hard-authoritarian communism and all these dishonest and hateful ways of interacting that they all seem to have, not because I have a problem with communism.
We already have a term for what you’re talking about, it’s called being a tankie lmao.
