“Arguing” by listing a long list of fallacies that they don’t really even understand.

Fallacy fallacy!

They are on TikTok and not Lemmy

Nah, TikTok is mostly GenZ and younger millennials. Gen Alpha is mainly on YouTube.

Excessive edginess

It’s important to differentiate it from like. Having extreme opinions. There are plenty of adults with extreme opinions and they are a whole other conversation. – But only people under a certain age (not strictly kid, mind, though most people have shaken this off by their mid 20s) have a penchant to arrive at extreme opinions specifically because they are “edgy” and “cool”.

This tends to also come with a particularly needless hostile attitude, where they very quickly and easily start with the verbal abuse.

Reminds of the dead baby jokes from my day. Like why? Too horrible to be funny.

Vertical filming, putting music into videos when you could just use silence

@MataVatnik@lemmy.world avatar

I abandoned horizontal filming years ago. Only use it if I can’t fit something

locuester ,

When everyone watches your content on a vertical screen, it simply makes sense.

There was a time period before the modernization of video sharing apps when vertical video was annoying because it was primarily consumed on a PC. But that changed years ago.

The only people still making the vertical video arguments haven’t reevaluated their stance in a decade, or don’t get out of the house much.

Sounds more like you’re describing ai generated content than kids.

The thing with a lot of the methods mentioned is that I’ve seen both teens that are more mature than me, and people in their thirties that should probably have their internet privileges revoked.

They like people like Lenin and Stalin.

It’s a wakeup call for a lot of young people when they start to recognize the absurdity of anti-communist propaganda, but a lot of kids swing too far the other direction and figure all the bad things they’ve ever heard about history’s worst communist leaders are lies.

It doesn’t mean that Communism is uniquely bad, but these men were violent tyrants who don’t share values with most mainstream western leftists today.

Some never grow up and say dumb shit like that radical gender expression was common in the USSR or something…

LOL

chobeat ,

Larping as a tankie is definitely a thing of immature, terminally online kids, but I wouldn’t throw Lenin in the bunch. While Stalin is mostly condemned as a reactionary psychopath by pretty much everybody except a few leftist basement-dwellers, Lenin is still read and taught throughout the world. Nothing edgy in reading Lenin.

Edgy kids on the internet worship other psychopaths like Pol Pot or Hoxha.

MataVatnik ,
@MataVatnik@lemmy.world avatar

It was always a thing, had a tankie friend in high-school. Though you’re right, most people grow out of it. But I don’t think this guy did last I saw him

AsherahTheEnd ,

Stalin maybe. Lenin? He was a hero to the working class. I’d really like to see your sources on how Lenin was one of “history’s worst communist leaders”.

Some instances on Lemmy are going through a Red Scare, I doubt they can explain.

AVincentInSpace ,

I feel like someone who has an account on .ml might be biased

Also I’m not sure I’d call it a “red scare” when Hexbear is openly praising Putin and Xi Jinping

Cowbee ,
@Cowbee@lemmy.ml avatar

I am a Marxist, yes.

Hexbear doesn’t praise Putin, but they do praise Xi, quite a bit.

socksy ,

I suppose there’s not a lot of communist leaders to choose from in general, but Kronstadt happened on Lenin’s watch and it would be a bit disingenuous to pretend this was controversy free amongst the left and working classes.

The kulaks and the monarchists and the nazi collaboraters deserved it. Communists have been vindicated by history every single time.

oatscoop ,

Late teens, maybe early 20s.

How close am I?

foofiepie ,

Some people take longer to mature.

ssj2marx ,

True. I didn’t become a commie until I was almost thirty, young me was so idealistic.

foofiepie ,

😂

Great reply. Respect.

todd_bonzalez ,

This is exactly the kind of shit Republicans say about growing older and becoming more cynical. Same regressive bullshit, different ideology.

ssj2marx ,

As we all know, getting more militantly progressive because you see the repeated failures of the liberal worldview is exactly the same as getting more conservative because you own more property 🤡

Cowbee ,
@Cowbee@lemmy.ml avatar

Ah yes, if a Communist is young, they are naiive, and if a Communist is older, they are cyncial and regressive.

The double-think is strong with you.
