And plz, can we have a Hexbear community for TheDeprogram podcast too? And even for other things like Communalism, Libertarian Socialism, Proletarian Democracy, Council Democracy, Spirituality, Paranormal/Supernatural, NDE, Astral Projection, and the like?
1000 wars never happened
Let’s just ignore all the ones that did because they don’t affect me personally, of course.
Grenada? Sorry we don’t speak pinko in this house, Vlad.
"Uh well, mentioning that war is just whataboutism, red fash tankie. How much does XiPutin pay you? "
Whataboutism? What about deez nuts?
“The west also ended colonization of our own accord”
Anti-colonial revolts across the world:
I could’ve won if I wanted to! I lost on purpose!
The west also ended colonization of our own accord
By the way, I stopped beating my wife of my own accord
… after she started beating me back.
Damn, I got whiplash reading that line
“Communalism, Libertarian Socialism, Proletarian Democracy, Council Democracy”
I can only take pretending to not be sectarian so far
What too much Paradox games does to a mf
If a bully decides to stop beating me, the most reasonable thing for me to do is to thank him and show my appreciation for his kindness instead of striking him while he’s walking home alone.
And he didn’t even stopped beating you.
No, see, I stopped stealing your lunch money and beating you up when you signed that contact to give me your lunch money or else get beat up. I am kind and progressive. You’re welcome.
Perfect metaphor actually
And even for other things like Communalism, Libertarian Socialism, Proletarian Democracy, Council Democracy,
This is way too show-and-tell brained. All of these fit under the anarchist and/or marxist comms, subdividing into endless boutique sub-sects for the sake of having some kind of post-fordist flavor selection is pure polcomp-style brainrot
Also wth would “Astral Projection” merit its own comm? We have spiritual/pagan comms already, just use one of those. When you develop a practical use for it, then perhaps there can be a basis for pushing a new comm.
Brand new users and requesting we make massive sweeping changes to core aspects of the site, name a more iconic duo.

There’s several wars and a genocide happening right now but by all means keep sucking the dick of western hegemony.
Here is the response from the r/TankieTheDeprogram comrade
Even if they could say they ended colonialism they absolutely cannot say they ended it on their own accord
they ended colonialism because they’re so racist that everything they run ends up falling apart
This is what every empire ever has said about itself lmao
American kindness
is when le white man is unanimously acquitted by a jury for unprovokedly beating the shit out of random Asian grandpa
Strong “we in the West (white) are doing this for your own good” vibes which is classic colonial apologia
West Man’s Burden
somebody ate up all the slop in their public education
the deprogram pod kinda fucking sucks. anyway we dont have comms for specific pods just use c/podcasts
I like the Deprogram boys but they’re not great at podcasting unfortunately
Yeah, I see.
I can agree with you on that btw.
And, what about other leftist tendencies like Communalism, Libertarian Municipalism etc?
Are those tendencies even held and practiced by living people? They sound like stuff you bought from the supermarket of ideology.
They’re ideologies birthed from Bookchin, and are generally synthesized with other thought, rather than used as is. The Zapatistas, for example, practice Libertarian Municipalism, but it isn’t exactly right to call them “Libertarian Municipalists”. Having a Democratic Confederalism or Bookchin comm would cover most of what he mentioned.
you could make a request I think there is a comm for that
I listen to it sometimes but a lot of the time its just them reading an essay and saying fuck a lot. They’re fine but not really that entertaining unless they have a guest on
