Everyone in the comments is going “yeah well who’s your favorite historical figure?! I bet they weren’t a very good person either!” and I’m just replying “ whataboutism”
I know it’s petty but nothing is more satisfying than using smug liberal d i s c o u r s e against them
Such a good emoji
Its been popping off rn
“Everyones favorite person in history did something wrong” is such flattening apologetics. This is the same as double genocide theory. Its only use is to make Nazis look better and smear communists.
Its not that a figure like Stalin was perfect, but their is a difference between any critism of him and any US president, because he was involved in a socialist project (building up and safeguarding the USSR, and defeating fascism). US presidents “doing something wrong” are advancing the intetests of a white supremacist empire, or personal enrichment (like owning slaves).
Sure Nixon might’ve commited sexual assault, but have you considered the fact that Castro also had sex?
“I want to remove our violent oppressors by any means necessary so we can be free and happy” - Bad violent leftist who ruins parties
“I knowingly sent material support for a genocide resulting in the deaths of 300,000+ people literally being gunned down in the street, oopsie doopsy everyone makes mistakes” - “Wholesome” “Nicest fucking dude”
Liberals: Nice try tankie, but all of our leaders and popularised heroes commit genocide, so it can’t be criticism
My favorite historical person is John Brown and he only did two things wrong. He should have brought more soldiers to Harpers Ferry and I read somewhere he would yell at his kids sometimes.
Everything else he did was cool and good
He should have brought General Tubman and let her lead the thing
General Tubman is my other favorite historical person. Am I allowed to have multiple favorites?
: Sorry in communism you are rationed only with one favorite historical person.
:left-unity-4: Anarcho-communist Polycules: Have as many favorite persons as you’d like!
I thought about it but it was more fun just to out smug the smuglords
I dont think he just yelled at his kids
Aw man, did he beat his kids? I mean I know it was the 1840s and times were different but that’s sad.
I ran a stop light once because I was on my phone and didn’t see it. That makes me literally the same as Hitler. I don’t make the rules I just follow them. Well except when I don’t, and that also makes me literally the same as Mussolini.
You know who else followed rules? Nazis. Bet you don’t think you’re so high and mighty now, do you
Oh shit oh fuck I’m doomed
Neoliberalism began with Carter, not Reagan. I hate when liberals blame Reagan for the world’s problems. Yes, Reagan sucks, but much of why he sucks actually comes from Carter. They are both monsters who have been rehabilitated like almost every other fucking dogshit president. (The only presidents who did good things were FDR and Lincoln and they still deserve prison time for the bad things they did.)
Yeah, you have a point but Reagan is the more natural target since while Carter did start to implement certain neoliberal policies, for Reagan it was his calling and religion since well before he became president (back when he was campaigning for Goldwater and when he was governor of California), he was a zealous convert to neoliberalism and is the one that established it as the state religion of the United States.
I mean…
American presidents. People who assisted with genocide.
I got in an argument with some lib on twitter who insisted that their personal forgiveness of his crime of assisting in the genocide of east timor should have been enough for me to rehabilitate him.
Libs just dont want to divorce themselves from America.
If only this person could take a second and thi k about why it is that every US president does war crimes worthy of Nuremburg style treatment including the “nicest guy ever” Jimmy Carter.
Like, maybe there’s something wrong with the office of the US presidency and the US government in general and perhaps both should be abolished for, at least, the sake of world peace and peoples liberation???
But you don’t understand, Obama had no choice but to drone bomb anything brown and keep Guantanamo Bay running a concentration camp
so your fav leader did a fucky wucky, we all make mistakes

The first red comment there got to -60 before the thread got locked, I consider this to be a finer award than any Reddit badge
Wow I didn’t know that you could set an overly verbose leftist meme to such a catchy beat
Why does that dancing duck look so familiar?
It’s from a Hololive meme, someone made a gif of a vtuber dancing with the duck and it got big from this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ccoZhuNlls
The finest piece of Hololive related media, however, is not a dance at all
I did not expect Kenneth Branagh, but I heartily approve of his inclusion into the holo-lore and Korone’s inclusion into the Kenneth Branagh Shakespearean performance group alongside legends such as and Denzel Washington
Not sure. They get around maybe?
the upvotes ties it all together
