Something about .ml and MLs in general is that they really just aren’t that large a group. If we want larger communities, Reddit is still much bigger than Lemmy. If we want a flawed ally in politics, progressive liberals outnumber Leninists and are far less likely to deliberately betray us. (That’s why MLs always equate Liberalism with fascism; if people can ally with Liberals MLs have basically nothing they can bring to a coalition, and so they can’t seize power.)
Damn right, remember when the communists helped nazi brownshirts root out and kill liberals? Or when communists helped install Pinochet and he threw liberals out of helicopters?
Liberal-Fascist bargain denialism is a new one for me, I’m honestly excited to see what sort of bizarre new ideologies and stances emerge from the churn of this psuedoleftist cesspit.
from the looks of it, it was pretty much over them continuing to follow the “one china” policy according to natopedia, which seems typcial for Chinese foreign policy. why did you attribute this to deng though? i thought gang of four still had power in 73
I was referring not to the fascist coup but much later when Pinochet visited China and concluded that SWCC was of a nationalist character, unlike the communism of Mao. Sorry for being unclear.
ah i see, thanks! tbh just sounds like pure bs from pinochet, trying to reconcile his anti-communist stance with having relations with china (because like, he worked with china under the “communism of mao” too), i would curious to see if any chinese official reacted to that statement back then

How do they dig out such perfect cases of historical projection despite knowing nothing about history? It’s amazing

Ah yes, liberals allying with liberals, what a shocker.
I think that China actually did back Pinochet, unless you want to say it doesn’t count because of Deng
China did a lot of really stupid shit to piss off the Soviets. So many Ls.
China, backed Pinochet?
The Sino-Soviet split and its consequences have been a disaster for mankind.
backed him after he was already in power or directly helped with the coup?

They supported each other’s territorial claims, did a failed “joint venture” to build up the fascist military, and things like that.

I suspect all they did was recognize him as ruler, like literally most countries on the planet at the time.
