@leilashami the entire DNC protests in Chicago were full of flocks of Authoritarian Communists hawking newspapers that regurgitated pro-Putin and even pro-Assad stuff, citing this crap.
@aoife @leilashami only shitposting teenagers are explicitly pro-hamas here so far afaik
@thufie @leilashami They try keep it kind of on the down low with generic social justice terminology, but just about anything organized in New York by the "people's forum" can be assumed to be tankie trash at best and active disinfo at worst. They explicitly refer to Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis as the resistance and just about any event organized by them (alot because they never seem to run out of money 🤔) has people showing up with those flags.
@thufie @leilashami Huge chunk of the protests here are the same at this point which is why I won't go to most of them. Like, Hezbollah and Hamas solidarity is a thing now :/
