Nah I’m with you. It’s pretty fucked, especially considering its history. Have you read “against the logic of the guillotine”? I’d check it out if you haven’t.

I mean, nothing says “I’m an anarchist” like supporting mass executions by the people’s state.

I don't think this is a fair assessment. A guillotine doesn't require a state to wield it.

Yo, same. I've already said my piece on anarchists co-opting it; but it doesn't look that much better on Socialists.
It's a device that appeals to the grosser parts of the moralist that gleefully supports "punitive justice" because "bad people deserve to suffer and I want to watch another human being die but I still want to be a good person".
Frankly, it should be met with the same revulsion one would hold for a medieval torture device or a noose.

I hate debating using cellphones, it somehow blocks my ability to think and express myself as I want to. Does this happens to anyone else?

Lots of people (myself included) are not very comfortable communicating by phone. I've never tried debating in particular, though.

It's tiresome having these people coming here to debate yet being completely unable to have their ideas questioned.

to debate
That's a generous way to put it.
They came here to educate us lowly counterrevolutionaries in the ways of Lenin, Mao, and/or Stalin and got mad because we know totalitarian communism is fucking awful we aren't enlightened enough to recognize true anti-imperialism and historical materialism.

I like getting my ideas shredded when talking to people in this website, it helps me deepen them.

It's fine.
I'm sure another one just like them will pop up sometime soon and you can your licks in.
Give it, like, a week. At most.

Dialectically speaking, there’s no difference between well-founded accusations backed with sound evidence and furiously typed ridiculous trash informed by cultish groupthink.

When you know what imperialism is.

Might not be a particularly popular opinion, but I'm so sick of the fetishization of guillotines in leftist spaces.
It's reminds me of the way bootlickers fetishize military equipment, which is fucking cringeworthy at best.
