/r/ChapoTrapHouse getting banned reminded me how fishhook theory is the dumbest Reddit meme...

In Germany and Spain liberals and social democrats formed popular fronts against fascism, and this position was endorsed by the Soviet government. The US government actively took the side of the allies with economic aid even before joining the war, and when it had no real reason to get involved. Many liberals do side with fascists, but many others do not. The statement that there is no such thing as genuine liberal anti-fascism is objectively untrue, even if liberals are not the most reliable of anti-fascist allies.

These "popular fronts" only showed up after the Third Reich had turned against the liberal nations. Before that point, most liberal countries refused to work with the USSR and were basically aiding Nazi Germany in what they thought would be an inevitable attack on the Soviet Union, until they were blindsided by the Nazis and Soviets signing a non-aggression pact and trade deal, and the Nazis started marching west. Working with leftists only became an option for the liberal powers after they started getting eaten by the fascists, and ended pretty much at the same time the war did.

they're just liberalism anyways

If by "genuine" you mean liberals flapping their gums about how much they don't like fascists, sure. If you mean actually doing something about it, then no. It's only after Holocaust came to light that nobody wanted to be seen next to fascists or Hitler. And even afterwards, liberal condemnation of fascism is centered around the wars, the racism and genocide, so any group of fascists that watches its mouths can slip on by.

I think it's also because a lot of "far right" mislabel themselves as such, you see a lot of this shit on Zig Forums: "I used to be a lefty but then Anti said she didn't like muh video games". A lot of people's economic views simply follow their social views. If you explained Marxism, without using Marxist terms, to coal miners they'd be radically left, but [identity] politics makes strange bed fellows.

Bullshit. Former Marxist here. The problem with Marxism is that it's mindless. You take a false dichotomy: Capitalist bad/worker good, you then spin that the "haves" are the cause of all the ills in the world and that everything is "rigged" by them and for their interests - and worse you offer zero proof that but take it as a given and then offer the "solution" to this is to murder tens of millions people.

It's extremist black and white thinking, us vs them. The only difference between you and Hitler is that he replaced the term "capitalist" with "international Jew."

What is this, 1930? Fascism arose out of a unique set of circumstances that no longer exist. There's no USSR lurking on the fringes of Europe with millions of union/communist sympathisers.

Assuming we're talking about actual fascism not Vox-tier "Here's why Alabama's new abortion law is the ugly face of a resurgent American fascism" liberal hysterics

What you describe is a typically non-Marxist position. Classes are defined by economic relations, not cultural values.

Lol ok bud. Marxism is not about character morals.

This was literally pointed out by capitalist thinkers before the modern ideological apparatus was set up which just cheerleads the liberal status quo.

This is what happens when you don't read theory.

No you're not. To be a Marxist you have to uphold Marxist theory, and in order to uphold Marxist theory you have to understand it. To understand it, you have to at least have read it which I bet you haven't done.

What you are is a former liberal or a (conscious) lier.

I don't think he's being honest here.
I think he's a Zig Forumstard pulling the "Hello, fellow leftists" card.

...

Bullshit. You're either deeply confused or a liar. You don't even need to discuss "capitalist bad" at all.

Everything you're descirbing is contradicted by Marx himself.

I would like to know more. How'd this happen?

They have like 100k subscribers compared to this place that gets 1000 visitors at most, even if like 90k of them are socdems or libs that still means 10k lefties.

Read theory

It didn't. 4 moderators were removed for 'encouraging violence', because leddit will remove basically anything that jeopardizes their profits. I really don't know what people expected.

...

Amerilards think liberals = communists and are baffled by (fake edgelord) leftists getting banned on any public site, since it contradicts their victim complex worldviews.

This is more of a result of people with fucktones of money trying to recreate their childhood fantasy of sic-fi that they read when growing up, than profit seeking.

I don't think so, there's way more raw minerals in space then there are here. Once you escape Earth's gravitational pull space mining becomes economical in theory.
Space mining has been seriously contemplated way before these Silicon Valley titans became famous.

Blue Origin’s total budget is less than 1% of Bezo’s net worth, if this was some galaxy brain scheme to control the mining Industry, he would be investing more in this.

Doesn't change that it's science fiction at this point. To use Zizek's usual analogy, being jealous of your wife is pathological even if she's really cheating on you.

Yeah but the government has been selling off it's technology under Trump. I'm not sure about space in particular, but tons of research that was previously either in the public trust, or was about to be added, has been re privatized.
It's poetic to think that these billionaires are so staggeringly myopic with hubris that they literally to make goofy science fiction reality, but it's just not reality.

See

You are the one high on your own ideological supply. You think because you can see the meta dialectics of capitalism that all it's scheming is open to you. It's not, and there's more going on that I never even see leftist touch.
You all been spooked by Alex Jones into avoiding analysis that is socially unacceptable.

I don't believe there will be a space mining industry in the near future though. My point is that it's beside the point. Whether that nonsense is viable or not has no bearing on whether Silicon Valley's space exploration business is based on *sniff* pure ideology. It obviously is. You can see it in the way they act. Why else would Elon Musk have to be such a memelord?

That isn't the meme though, the meme is that liberals will always break for fascism if the alternative is socialism, or 'scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds' both of which are true.
Popular fronts existed to fight fascism as a mutual threat to both liberals and socialists, not to bring socialism. Liberals obviously, tautologically, prefer liberalism to fascism. The question is what they order when Liberalism isn't on the menu of history.

A big part of raising funds, and getting proles to accept privatized space is public relations. There's a long game among porkies to privatize absolutely everything and this is a part of it. This is only ideological in that's it's a continuance of being cucked to capital. Not that Bezos and Musk watched "Star Wars" one too many times.

Wait What?

Yeah, I'll try to dig up some articles on it. Off the top of my head a bunch of research that went into a lot of new drugs has been privatized even though the research was publicly funded and should have gone into the public trust.

Thought you meant that laboratories were being privatized, still incredibly shit though.

Correction. This might have been the intention, but the effects were always the same: postponing or outright destroying the only movement that could eradicate the very socio-economic conditions that bring about fascism in the first place, capitalism.

An alliance with the smiley face side of capitalism against evil_emoji_capitalism.gif is still an unprincipled one if you are not a traitor like your ilk.

Chapo hasn’t been banned yet, nor will it be banned as long as the moderation team starts doing their jobs properly and no leftist mass shooters pop up. The libertard Reddit admins don’t give a shit unless something draws negative, advertiser-unfriendly attention towards the site.

The first time I ever saw fish hook theory was here. It's a humorous counter to horseshoe theory, which makes fun of "centrists." Present day "centrism" is frequently just a front which often gives way to or disguises fascist talking points. That's the joke.

That and "fuck liberals." But, yes, there is some underlying truth to this, but afaik it was never intended to be fully serious.

You forget the part where workers get absolutely shit on, while bourgeoisie have their profits protected. You know, the actual reason communists struggle, and get opposed. Remember? Class struggle? Worker ownership? Doesn't ring a bell?

Mussolini could have not gassed Libyans, invaded Ethiopia, tried to genocide Yugoslavs and dangling him upside down would still be the right thing to do.

Chapofags are on suicide watch

I think you misspelled "homicide". Sounds like it's a hill they're perfectly willing to die on. I guess we'll see.

I'm guessing you're not very literate in economic statistics…. This is not a very good argument against Nazism here

You wanna know how I know you were never a marxist? Not even capitalists work for their own interest but for capital itself

Might want to look again at how those wages even at their peak compared to before and how much they made up a percent of the national income. Also, if the hourly wages are going down but the weekly wage increases marginally, that isn't usually a good thing.

lel cucko cuck house isn't even quarantined

it's pretty obvious they're just going to get off; no timetable, no quarantine, only asking to remove mods not force adding new ones. The list of banned subs is entirely right wing. They're going through the song and dance of their process with them to legitimize the process. It's gotten so bad that the process is no longer considered legitimate and no longer successfully pacifies the cattle which is the whole point of a bureaucratic veneer. So far no subs placed under it have not been banned.

I have no idea what you're trying to say, but far left subs have been banned in the past.

HAHAHAHA

What’s this violence they’re getting banned for?

I always find this popular front fetishism preposterous and idealistic. The popular front idea totally collapsed and failed in Spain, resulting in the total squelching of the Left for decades if not indefinitely. The left never really recovered from the extermination of the Socialist movements. The Fascists did succeed. And where coalitions elsewhere formed the ultimate result was Communists merely being used by Socdems or Left Libs to institute welfarism, after which the Left was sidelined or persecuted

I guess he thinks all lefties are trans

40% people are trans? Who is the stoned fucker who produced that number?

[arguments not found]

At least they know.

[sound of communists butchering anarchists in the background]

...

Are you arguing for or against me? Is left unity the same thing as popular front? I thought it was more left libs/ soccdems and communist parties allying each other, not anarchists. But even so the communists lost in spain basically because the Liberals couldn't even get funding and materiel from Liberal France US or Britain while communists could not consistently get Stalin to supply them enough

They kept joking about murdering slave masters is what people said on r/stupidpol.

Imagine calling yourself a former marxist but never having read nor understood Marx.
