    I’ve never seen a socialist call an anarchist a liberal, and I’ve been both at various points. Also you forgot the liberal calling all 4 radicals and terrorists.

          Tankies. The .ml is short for Marxism-Leninism. Leftists for sure, but they get very nasty if you criticize China or voice anarchist thought, and will definitely call you a liberal for it.

          I’m generalizing of course, there’s many different people there. But campism is definitely huge.

          lemmy.ml is the most popular one, there is also hexbear and lemmygrad.

      The hammer and sickle is a tankie symbol. Tankies call everyone they disagree with a lib, which absolutely includes anarchists.

        The hammer and sickle is a socialist symbol, of which tankies are a tiny subset, if you’re even using the word correctly (to mean people who unironically support everything authoritarian communist regimes do), which I doubt on the basis of your ‘knowledge’ of socialist symbols. Also I’m an anarchist, and while we have our disagreements, I’ve never been called a liberal by anyone on the left.

          The symbol originates from Soviet Union, and was adopted by other “socialist” regimes around the world, so I guess describing it as a ‘symbol of authoritarian socialist regimes’ would be more accurate idk

            It is also the symbol of many socialist movements, some of which has some pretty major issues with said socialist regimes around the world, so no, that wouldn’t be more accurate. It’s just a socialist symbol.

      You’re not hanging out in campist spaces enough. I have been snarled at and banned from hexbear comms for “liberalism”

        Over the last ~10 years i have spent a shitload of my not-insignificant amount of free time in various far-left spaces on the internet, but I suppose I haven’t seen every last crazy mofo out there. Also, calling an opinion ‘liberalism’ is different than calling an anarchist a liberal.

          A lot of people got trolled by hexbear users when they migrated here from Reddit by posting pictures of pigshit and calling anyone mad about it a shitlib.

          Some are still angry, two years on.

            Ah, what a lovely bunch of human beings. Sorry on behalf of we leftists who aren’t giant flaming assholes.

        I have not, but I spent a shitload of time over the past ~10 years in numerous leftist spaces on Reddit and elsewhere. I suppose there’s a chance the socialists on those instances are more cranky and less accurate than everywhere else on the internet, but I’m skeptical.
