Reply to comment by Amorphous in Real socialism! by ziq

I took issue with my comrades being called fascists

Who are your comrades? The government of China, CCP? Or am I misunderstanding?

If you are really saying the CCP are your comrades... Do you...know these people? I guess my question is, what do you mean with a statement like this?

Also, /u/ziq does a significant amount of organizing work, i think you are out of line and just plain incorrect in assuming that they do not and instead spend all their time criticizing authoritarian communists on the internet. This is one of many things they do with their time, but the little window I have had into their efforts they have done far more than most people I have interacted with in radical spaces over more than a decade of living and organizing with communists, anarchists, and other fellow travelers.

Also, I believed you about ziq when I initially read this comment. I thought, "You know, maybe I'm out of line. Maybe posting shenanigans bring out the worst in /u/ziq and they do good work IRL. I hope that's true!" Then I wrote my reply to this comment, and /u/ziq immediately threw a full-on tantrum, randomly insulting me, all-caps spamming me, and then rapid-fire posting no fewer than eight (probably will be closer to ten by the time this comment is actually posted) different anti-china memes.

I then scrolled back through their history to get a feel for how often they go on these ridiculous posting tantrums. There are pages and pages of posts in their history for every single day.

After reconsidering the facts, I must say I simply cannot believe your claim. There is no way /u/ziq has time to organize IRL.

You are misunderstanding, as I clarified in another reply to you. I'd like to take this moment, then, to point out another thing I noticed. You talk like a liberal. That's something I notice in anarchist online spaces and only in anarchist online spaces.

What I mean by that is that "CCP" is not a real thing. The party is the Communist Party of China, or CPC, and this is how they self-identify. The fact that you think of them as the CCP reveals that you only hear of them from western liberal media or, worse, from western liberal/fascist randoms who you hear talking about them. And that's what I mean when I say that you consider people "fascists" for not believing everything CNN or the BBC says. You (not necessarily you specifically, I don't know you, but some radlibs calling themselves anarchists on this site and other online anarchist spaces) identify people as fascist for supporting a group of people you don't even know how to speak about without proving your ignorance.

I don't think of them as an acronym, I think of them as the Chinese Communist Party, which seemed pretty neutral and unloaded by being plainly descriptive. Any inference of malice or ignorance i think is misplaced, I read their own press releases in translated mandarin, read news articles from Chinese sources and include state-run media in my information diet about this government.

this is really just symbolic posturing, and i think it is less substantive than the rest of what you and others have to say about this issue.

Can you fuck off? I'm trying to have a serious discussion here, something you are far too immature to manage. Butt out.
