    I don’t even know what you are talking about. reactionary?

    Wait, are you getting involved in political discussions without any familiarity with actual politics? Or even a willingness to google terms to pretend you know what people are talking about?

      What terms should I google then? I’m familiar with the terms i’ve seen in the thread this far… Like, I know what reactionary means, I just don’t know why they are using that word. … Are they suggesting disliking communist content is… reactionary?

        Like, I know what reactionary means, I just don’t know why they are using that word. … Are they suggesting disliking communist content is… reactionary?

        Are you suggesting opposing progressive changes to society isn’t reactionary?

          I’m suggesting that communism is not progressive. But i’m not here to argue politics with fools, just to be clear.

            Well tough luck, because I am, so explain. What about communism, a system that extends democracy from just the government to the entire workplace, seems regressive or part of the status quo? What past condition is it trying to reestablish? Or is this one of those vibes based “akshully Xi was allowed to stand for president more than twice so that makes him a dictator” analyses?

                  Yes, doubly so, because it applies to you. You two jokers have been derailing this thread so bad.

                    Derailing this thread by engaging in discussion about the topic the OP posted about. Yeah sure dude.

                    Let me guess you also are one of the losers that thinks we brigade your posts because they just naturally show up in our feed and we have to dunk on you for being shit.

                  I told you i don’t want to discuss politics with you fools. Being “tough” is not going to negate that. I’m not going to engage with your nonsense nevertheless. Apparently you fail to understand that.

                    And I told you that I don’t care. You’re the one claiming communism isn’t progressive, all I did was ask some very simple questions about how you came to such a ridiculous conclusion and you started throwing out accusations of nonsense. The call’s coming from inside the house buddy.

                    If you don’t want to discuss politics then you should go live in a cave away from civilization because what you call “politics” is literally just socializing.
