“Here’s a link” “no” “then look it up yourself” “no.” At least I got to entertain myself with some quality anti-intellectualism I guess.

Then look up EU neocolonialism? At some point you have to learn things if you want your opinions to make sense.

Which one should they be summarizing?

Whichever comment they think likely contributed to the ban? As it stands we’re basically being asked to take their word that their ban is unjustified, and they absolutely sound like the kind of person who’d rightly get banned under rule 3. Yeah not exactly a case I’d argue in court, but in the absence of better evidence I’m far more inclined to believe the ban is justified than otherwise.

What makes you think they’re above petty or absurd bans?

Maybe they’re not, but if this was a petty or absurd ban I’d expect to see more petty or absurd bans in the same thread given the large number of pro-Mamdani comments.

Also, thinking the EU is imperialist is a sign of poopy-brain.

Or maybe, just maybe, there’s context you don’t know that makes their position make sense? There, from a quick Google. Or you can look up EU fishing in West Africa.

TIL that saying “imperialists bad” makes one a tankie nowadays.

“[] The “civilised” Evropa in action, death to the (neo-)imperialist/colonialist fortress that is the EU”

“Death Death to the IDF!” (and the USA of course)"

This only raised my opinion of them so… Why exactly should this make me conclude they’re a tankie? I’d expect any leftist worth their salt to share a more or less similar sentiment.

you don’t need to be a detective to see that the person is a tankie, with a heavy bias towards russia.

If you have an argument that they’re a tankie make it; you’ve said nothing of substance in your response.

Still, they likely know the contents even if they can’t repeat it verbatim. Either way I doubt the mods on c/leftymemes decided to single them out from all the people defending Mamdani in the comments.

I’m saying it displays a bias.

Yeah… no. Even if that made sense, which it doesn’t, you know full well that that’s not what the average bystander will think when they read “sporting a Russian flag in their bio.”

They’re very keen on “freezing the conflict” (beneficial only to russia),

Assuming that’s true, sure? That’s a shit take, but not exactly tankie material. People are allowed to have shit opinions. Besides, the mod that banned the OP is Flatworm, not Alsaas, so that’s a moot point.

and any criticism towards russia is “russophobia”.

Literally never seen that happen.

What was the comment?

I have no idea, but the fact that OP hasn’t posted the comment here is more than enough evidence, not to mention how they absolutely sound like the kind of unapologetic liberal who would say unapologetically liberal shit and get banned for it.

I think I know which mod you’re talking about, but while they do have more tankie sympathies than I’d like I haven’t seen them do any of these things save for the Russian flag, which is next to the British and German flags to indicate the languages they speak.

It is, final volume came out in English last year.

I know LN readers can be annoying when they say this, but you’re seriously missing out by not reading the novels. They’re on a completely different level, and probably would be even if the anime got a Frieren-level budget, which it almost certainly won’t.

Let’s just hope it gets a decent budget, or at least enough for twelve episodes stares at season 3.

Karl Marx?

Yeah that worked, thanks for the help.

They’ll never understand that while most everyone outside of their echo chamber thinks their politics may be ignorant and entirely misguided, people don’t hate them for it. No, they are hated for their hypocrisy, their arrogance and their condescending narrative that while sharing the exact same sewage system- somehow their shit doesn’t stink.

They are every bit as bad as MAGA, and in some cases… so much worse.

-Them. If this is what they think, expressing their political views even somewhat honestly in the comm would run afoul of rule 3, which says

Anti-Socialist people and content have no place here,

Now you can feel however you want about it, but the rule is clear, and the mods over there aren’t especially trigger happy about removing liberals, so realistically OP would’ve had to do something pretty blatant to catch a ban.

That link isn’t working for me.

Uh… first I’d need a link to the thread?

Wow this community really went to shit. You definitely broke rule 3.
