It is pretty evident that Western neoliberals have invaded Lemmy. Sad. The cancer just spreads everywhere because of their sheer numbers and the low intellectual barrier.
I find it funny, because on this instance's home page it says it is a leftist community
Well, neoliberals are not exactly leftists, but warmongerers and capitalists, which is quite antithetical to the true socialist left. Liberals are left only to the right wingers, just like centre-right is treated as communism in USA.
Neoliberal /=/ someone who isn't a tankie.
And what do you mean by tankie, mister imperialist/capitalist?
Someone who supports the Chinese government or other brutal state capitalistic states under the guize of 'communism'. I am also defiantly not a capitalist lol. Just a anarchist.
In that case, you are just another internet anarchist who still lives under the framework of Western fantasy world where the white Anglo man is the master race, and where you live with all the crappy cope Western MSM feeds you daily subconsciously.
Get out of the Anglo fascist dream, my sweet child. The world is slightly different, and getting out of their hands for ever, thankfully.
I don't reed the news lol. I only ever really go online to read and talk about Linux and technology. Every single government, including China and the USA are all run by fascists and useful idiots. I oppose Capitalism, much like I oppose the ruthless state capitalism that is prevalent in China.
I really suggest you avoid talking about China and what goes on in there, since all you are ending up as is a "useful idiot" for USA foreign policy and their Cold War 2.0 against China. Neither is the government there fascist (spoiler: it is ML communist), nor is it state capitalism but a market based socialist economy.
In China the government owns the means of production, not the people collectively. It is state capitalist. Not fascist? Remember the Tienanmen Square Massacre?

Also china isn't a democracy, not even a bad one. For it to be communist it would have to be a democracy.
Time for some shock treatment:
