As someone who has read the linked thread: it would be helpful, even for me, if you included a quote that shows he blames the left for everything wrong. I think you’re referring to (link):
There is obviously a big difference in historical experience. In Czech Republic, we had naciz occupying us, then the communism followed by 20 years of occupation of USSR. We have a very close experience with censorship, propaganda and totalitarian regime. There was a lot of deplatforming going on, when people would go to prison or would be executed because they listened to the wrong radio station. […]
but I’m not sure because here he seems to blame fascism too here. Do you have a better quote that I didn’t see?
He’s literally equating militant fascism with the culture that seeks to deplatform the kind of people that support fascism. Hope that clears it up for you.
In the quote I showed he’s equating the censorship/authoritarianism of nazi germany to that of the USSR. Of the comments he has made, I actually find that apt. Your interpretation only makes sense if you’re equating the USSR with leftism generally which says as much about you as it does him.
I understand boycotting the game because of uncouth comments of its creator, especially when it comes to women’s rights / sexual assault / etc., but please be honest that’s the reason if it truly is why. I am at least not convinced he’s a fascist based purely on what I’ve seen him say.
When did kovarex do any of that? I just see a couple of out of context now deleted posts and conclusions drawn from them. Hardly militant fascist.
Yeah thanks for letting us know you didn’t actually read it. Blocked.

Why is it that whenever I see someone announce they’ve blocked someone else for disagreeing with them, it’s always @lemmy.blahaj.zone?
