Pls entertain my curiosity: Usually the term (“AmeriKKKa” and variants) marks someone as a Maoist, from what I know. I think it came from those circles. Do you know? Curious where folks pick this stuff up. I think it’s pretty hilarious, my father had the KKK burn a cross on his lawn in Mississippi, back in the day apparently,* so I do not take a lot of offence to the critique. I just assume everyone that uses it is a Maoist lol.
* He was a lawyer that took on cases from non-whites, I think this was the 1960-70s. We’re from the NE, so we don’t play like that.

I do know that Maoists use it, but I think I picked it up when I read about some Black Panthers using it (I mean they probably were Maoists). And also I started doing this when some snarky shitlibs were like “oh you shouldn’t say ‘America’ because Central America is ‘America’” so I’m just like “then I guess we’re doing this now” 😆.
I’m an anarchist so of course not a Maoist, but I absolutely do not disagree with Maoists about the particular issue of America not being a good thing. Sorry if I’m being a bit annoying but this stuff is super important me, i.e. it’s important to have a good understanding of recent history.
That’s fair. If you like the Black Panthers and Anarchism, find the podcast Colonial Outcasts on YT (look in linktree attached). One of the duo works with them and they are both ex-spec ops anarchists. The other led the veterans boat with Greta to Gaza this summer: https://linktr.ee/greg.j.stoker They have some interesting perspectives.
Man you really need to work on your communication if you ever want anyone to listen to you.
This is very much so a you problem because you’re not going to get far acting like this to people who agree with you.
No I’m pretty sure you’re a liberal, right? We probably do not agree almost at all. See this video for more information.

Being “slightly less than servile to AmeriKKKan sensitivities while anarchist” is not being “a tankie”.
