    The fact that you think that genocidal scumbag had good ideas means your opinion can be safely discarded.

      He had some good ideas. He was right about Poland being the hyena of Europe.

          Any chance you can share your ideas without personal insults?

          It makes you look flustered and insecure.

              For real though, please dial it back. You didn’t have to turn Churchill into an attack on someone who may not even be aware of Churchill’s crimes, and then continue to ratchet up the personal insults. It’s bad even by Reddit debate bro standards, and it doesn’t invite anyone to explore alternatives to bourgeois democracy.

                I think it’s awesome how on Lemmy the mods actually treat their users like people to correct and not like subjects to control.
