i lean towards the latter but want to hear hexbears thoughts on this. pic unrelated it’s my DS3 SL1 character after beating the dancer
It’s originally actually a Trotskyist epithet with basically the same meaning.
i can’t tell the difference between alleged campist anti-americans and people who are anti-america on principles because
just keeps being evil all the time every time.
also fwiw campist and campism are flagged by my spellcheck so they’re not common enough to be legit (and no concerted effort to call us that by “legitimate” analysts.)
It’s not really a thing, and to the extent that it is, it’s projection of the orientation of the people assigning the view to others in the first place
Liberal epithet
If it’s not just a liberal thought terminator, I’ve never heard it used as anything else.
Came here to say this. “Tankie” doesn’t feel new or clever enough, so lib-lefts need a new word.
Campism is a real thing, but it’s what happens when we go hang out in the woods together and the liberals aren’t invited. We can only carry so many vegan marshmallows.
Invite me to the camp or I’m telling mum
:
It’s one of those things that I can imagine hypothetically but doesn’t seem real in practice. Of course liberal political analysis seems to only take place in hypotheticals so it’s real to them.
there are pro-US campists for sure but we have better things to call them
Yeah, like I’m sure there’s some people out there that applies to, but as practical matter not enough to justify the use of the phrase in the discourse.
Every time I’ve been called a campist it’s come from a person who also wants to say Cuba and China are fascist dictatorships
In my experience it’s the more polite thing people to my right on international issues call me irl instead of just calling me a tankie or something.
Did the liberals steal another marxist word when I wasn’t paying attention?
Idk what “campism” even is… Cool as fuck that you’re doing a ds3 sl1 run tho!!! I had so much fun doing mine it really is an incredibly rewarding challenge :D
Is that raw broadsword?
yea got it to +7 for dancer she was tough but we got there. never done SL1 before
Hell yeah. Idk how far I ever got SL1 in 3…
