      relax. even if that were the case, it doesn’t mean anything. nothing is going to change as a result of their hyperbole, serious or not. and in all likelihood they’re just blowing smoke for the fucks and chuckles. nothing is going to come from any of the shit any of us type on these random barely noticed message boards frequented by less than a hundred or so people spread out across several continents.

      it’s not like spez is on lemmygrad. you’ve got several threads going about this. if you really don’t like them that much, block them.

          I honestly think the best thing to do with them is just to leave them alone. They feed off attention, if nobody is there to listen or condemn them it’ll lose its novelty.

          Sure, some tankies will go on for ever, but isolating them is the best way of stopping recruitment and limiting the appeal of posting provocativist bullshit.

            You have a point.

            But I think it’s important to point out their bigotry and hatred. Since, yeah, I don’t think anyone can deny that capitalism and today’s market is incredibly unfair and wholly corrupt (though so are the few current communist states). It’s usually how these extremists operate, acknowledge a problem in society that everyone else recognises, but suppose radical ideas and solutions, unfortunately the solutions often end in bloodshed and violence.

          ok, but i don’t see any hate speech here. calling someone a “CIA shill” or “braindead cavemen(also known as liberals)” is pretty common political discourse these days. it’s lame and anyone saying that shit shouldn’t be taken seriously, but it’s not attacking protected classes or anything. to my knowledge, that doesn’t fall under any definitions of hate speech that i’m aware of.

          it’s just tribal cheerleading. boring derivative. but somewhat accepted, even if poor behavior.
