        Someone who claimed China was better off as a semi-feudal semi-colony and had family there, someone bringing up the Black Book of Communism as a source on China Bad, someone who referenced the Wikipedia page title “People’s Democratic Dictatorship” to claim China has a sole dictator, etc.

        removing reactionary racist shit is to the benefit of marginalized people, not to the benefit of white people

        Do you think that if the mods did not ban people, that I would not still be more supported than not? Why do you think it’s to my personal benefit?

        Not just to his benefit, but to the benefit of workers across the globe.

        When reactionaries spit anticommunist propaganda, shutting them down is a service to womankind.

        I would need to see their comments before celebrating because nah nah, naaaaaaaaaaaaaah, we’re not just going to celebrate mods mass-banning opinions they don’t like.

        Unless it was actually hateful or filthy in some way. “Communism is good actually” does not count as hateful.
