- Talanes 6y agoI think all time travelers should be welcomed on Twitter with welcome arms, be they from 1933 or 2933.

- manux 6y agoFirst of all, from this link: > was a militant anti-fascist organisation, emphasis mine. People who self-identify as anti-fascist nowadays have little to do with communism. Why not link this page? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-fascism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-fascism Second of all, is "communist" a slur on HN? Is that supposed to sound scary or something?

No, it's supposed to sound accurate. > People who self-identify as anti-fascist nowadays have little to do with communism. From your own link: "This article has multiple issues." Mine doesn't and accurately describes the group's origins.
- hindsightbias 6y agoIt’s a slur, a belief that these people are extreme card-carrying Marxists educated at Karl Marx University and completely conversant with Das Kapital in the original german. But I’ve never met someone complaining about them who could name one of them. It’s like some Boys of Brazil meets George Soros thing with them.
