It’s just a suggestion, and I wasn’t saying that there were necessarily a lot of fascists on the fediverse, I meant antifascist action in general. In my view it would be more useful to put in energy to fight against that or poverty or hunger or any other issue than just dwelling on and shaming internet leftists, if one’s goal is improve the condition of society.
Yes actually, the mutual_aid comm is one of the most active on hexbear, I have personally helped comrades through it. Others have posted many times about the food they and their crew made for the community for free, or union organization efforts, or plenty of other actions.
Yeah some, there are fundraisers for people in Palestine or people in global south countries that post plenty as well. I wasn’t saying that was the most effective of the ways people are trying to help, just one form
Oh, so now it’s charities. But tankies donating to Palestine isn’t unique to tankies; any political ideology has done this. In my opinion, to fight poverty and hunger, I think volunteering to help the local homeless is better than clicking a button to send glorious money to others.
Plenty of us volunteer too, it’s not like people can only do one thing. Some people don’t have time but they have money, others vise versa. People do what they can. Why are you so hostile to this?

Are these internet leftists fighting poverty and hunger?

That community is people begging for money.
That’s not fighting poverty and hunger lol – That’s lazy westeners who are asking for shoutouts on… Bus tickets.

Because you’re defending tankies. Donating to charities or giving money away does not exclude hatred and bigotry
I see, you just don’t know what you are talking about, my mistake.
