I’m not on Twitter, so I get my news elsewhere, but most of the actual pictures I see are from here. So is there some kind of bias where only the fascist imagery gets posted here in the the dunk tank? Or do the libs scrolling through Ukrainian posts on Twitter literally see and ignore fascist imagery on every single post? Like, if they see 1000 Ukrainian soldiers, will they see 1000 fascist symbols?

Liberals saying everything that’s not liberalism is fascism again.

Illiberalism ≠ fascist.

This is why you see liberals that are as afraid of antifa as they are of Nazis.

Everything unlike them is the same to them the same way they can’t tell the faces of non-white people apart lol.

I don’t even know why I respond to federated liberals to be honest, they never get the picture and I usually just give up

It’s not a command economy like you’re interpreting here. It’s a grift economy. Basically, it’s a freak hybrid of public/private company structure that functionally allows Putin to reward his favorite cronies with high-rolling executive positions while also providing shitty, expensive service to the Russian people. It’s really not all that far removed from a lot of what we’ve got going on in the US.

What is the differentiation between grift and profit maximization for the individual participants of the free market economy?

To be fair, they did close with “It’s really not all that far removed from a lot of what we’ve got going on in the US.” I think this person is pretty much on the right track, they just haven’t been exposed yet to enough actual theory to rid them of the more pernicious liberal brainworms.
