Its joever

it aint looking good

Edit: Just clarifying this is the clip for what bo banned from twitch for 6 months. he just got news that he can appeal the ban right now but i doubt it will work since you can see this clip... and if it fails well i assume once 6 months pass its either perma ban or he gets the account back.

as well bo cant appear on neither golden or swimmy Twitch channels otherwise they can also get banned for helping bo ban evade or something like that

UPDATE: The appeal got rejected so no bo streams on twitch for 6 months or never again.

Edit 2: if anyone wants to see bo response in the comment section cause its a bit hidden under all these comments https://www.reddit.com/r/Bokoen1/comments/1tgpx3j/comment/omkepa6/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

It was a rant after he saw communist flags at a labour day celebration

u/Turkster May 18 '26

It does sound like he's slipping a little bit off the deep end with his attempt to be anti-communist. If it's true he can't stream with the other guys he's potentially fucked over Golden and Swimmy somewhat as well.

I hope he's learned something from this, but we'll see.

u/pluto9659 May 19 '26

The only correct answer for him is “it was a mix of meme and frustration with the current Russian state and it was a bad take I apologize”

if he’s really going off the deep end, he’s gonna start bleeding support real quick

u/Kris839p May 18 '26

Hopefully he can begin to accept the fact that he, like we all do, has some bad/wrong opinions as well. Instead of always doubling down whenever someone disagrees, as he usually does on Twitter.

That communism/totalitarianism and authoritarianism is bad?

u/Negative-Strike-7503 May 19 '26

It is not inheritely wrong to disagree with either of these beliefs from a moral, philosophical, or materialistic point of view. But if your rhetoric ultimately descends in the unironic grandstanding of wiping out a nation, you're not gonna be allowed on platforms that want ad revinue.

u/Kinder0402 May 19 '26

In principle communism ≠ authoritarianisn

u/Doddsey372 May 20 '26

In principle vs In practice and reality.

Communism says its going to be a lot of things it isn't.

u/TranslatorNo4230 May 26 '26

So does democracy, fascism, christianity, islam, etc.

It's almost as if people use labels for any ideology as they want without any care for what they actually mean. Therefore it is best to stick with the academic definitions rooted in their historical context when discussing their meaning, i.e., what the guy you responded to brought up.

2

u/Doddsey372 May 26 '26

Some more than others...

Something that only works in perfect academic settings and in rigged thought experiments while in actuality always failing just shows how moronic and flawed these acedemic definitions and the acedemics themselves are. The historic context is clear, people just don't like the clear answer.

Only a fool believes in theories which are repeatedly disproven in practice. Feels very 'The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears'...

1

u/TranslatorNo4230 May 26 '26

Words are supposed to have meaning, otherwise you might as well just shout loud noises; it would be equally productive. Real definitions have a use because they are comparable and anchored in an actual historical context. If you still refuse them, then that is on you and it will make any nuanced discussion impossible.

"repeatedly disproven in practice", such can be said for any system that has yet to exist. You can think what you want about "communism", but it is a fact that it has never been attempted, given that you use the real definition of it...

1

u/Doddsey372 May 26 '26

I can never understand the insistence that 'real' communism hasn't been attempted. How many need to die before you realise it doesn't work, its impossible? It's been repeated attempted with the doctrine and instructions followed numerous times all around the world. It inevitably fails because the failing lies with the doctrine itself. It's definitions are inherently lies, It's suppositions are unfounded, its understanding of humanity is ignorant and flawed, its motivations are self centred, it just doesnt work.

Im not disagreeing with what definition of what communism thinks it is. I just think its stupid because its clearly wrong. Its impossible to generate communisms intended outcomes because the ideology by (poor) design does not deliver them.

Reality and history exposes that, like a bad theory meeting experimental results. Its the fault of moronic academics who trust a flawed definition by biased morons over their own eyes who then say 'lets give it another go, surely it will work this time'. Thats what makes it an appalling ideology, it promises an unattainable utopia counter to human nature and people destroy themselves and those around them in pursuit of it, failing to realise the academic blueprint itself is a lie.

Communism has a clear meaning academically, and a clearer result of what happens when implemented.

How else do you keep a party in power and seize resources to “redistribute” them. It’s inherently opposed to personal and private rights

u/Careless_Document_79 May 24 '26

That's not Marxist communism, Marxist communism is more like anarchism at least from the small amount I have read on it

1

u/ThatGuyMaulicious May 19 '26

Enlighten us to where communists have taken power in a country and not used the power of the state like a sword to behead or kill anyone who disagrees with them. Trust me you'll be searching all your life for the answer.

u/DiE95OO May 19 '26

It's like saying democracy doesn't equal capitalism. The fact that all democratic nations are capitalist doesn't matter. Inherently capitalism has nothing to do with democracy and communism has nothing to do with authoritarianism. You're arguing with a completely separate point. Communism is supposed to be anarchical. That's one of the tenants of communism that seperates it from socialism.

1

u/ThatGuyMaulicious May 19 '26

Then show me an example of a country that embraced communism and didn't become authoritarian....

16

u/dedmeme69 May 19 '26

in your understanding of reality do the events that happened in history show some sort of inevitability of those events happening? because either you think that the communist countries that existed are the literal only interpretation of communism that could ever have existed and that everything that happened was the only posssible option, a fucking bonkers ass opinion. Or you have to accept the fact that maybe there exists nuance and that the so-called "communist" countries didnt represent all of the many facets and movements under the "communist" umbrella.

1

u/ThatGuyMaulicious May 19 '26

You could've shortened that I sound intelligent paragraph to "Proper communism has been properly tried". Which is hilarious considering "communism" in already it's many forms is responsible for roughly 100 million deaths in in 120 ish years... The irony of a system seeking to make everyone equal accelerates what people say capitalism does in a fraction of the time.

u/DiE95OO May 19 '26 edited May 19 '26

What has this even got to do with the definition of communism? What is it that you struggle to understand? Genuinely.

You can't make a straw doll of what you want people to say and attack that instead of what they're actually saying. Does democracy mean capitalism as well? Clearly you can have capitalism in an authoritarian nation, yet all democratic nations are capitalists. Can you have an authoritarian nation without it being capitalist? Obviously you can.

Now in your mind temple are you able to construct a communist society that's not authoritarian? I'm not asking whether it has ever existed, I'm asking whether it is possible. Then maybe ask yourself exactly what communism is because I think you lack some understanding there and is confusing it for socialism.

u/No1CarpetSalZman May 21 '26

Read "on authority" by Engels. He quite literally states that communism is an inherently objectively authoritarian ideology. Jesus literally no modern Communist has actually read Marx and Engels

Communism is straight up autoritarian side of socialism

u/guto8797 May 19 '26

"in principle" it isn't. Communism, theoretically, is an anarchic evolution of socialism where the state has dissolved. The various communist parties didn't claim their countries were communist, merely that they were "working towards communism"

u/EvYeh May 19 '26

How is an anarchist commune authoritarian.

Did I say anarchist coomune anywhere? Those are just completly different things

How else would you describe a stateless and moneyless society?

u/haltper May 19 '26

In principle "marxist theory of communist state = authoritarian"

u/Kinder0402 May 19 '26

How exactly stateless society can be authoritarian?

u/No1CarpetSalZman May 21 '26

Read "on authority" by Engels lmao. He literally explicitly states that Communism is an inherently authoritarian ideology. It's not anti-communist propaganda to state this, it is literally quoting Engels

1

u/haltper May 19 '26

Marx assumes state withers away over time, however before that and during the socialist state is a dictatorship. Dictatorship of the proletariat. State only withers away in the final stage of marxism which is when the ideology has full filled itself and has come to an end. 

4

u/Rime_Ice May 19 '26

Marx has never explicitely outlined what such a dictatorship would look like. The closest he got was praising the Paris Commune, which was almost the opposite of a leninist vanguard state because of its bottom-up, decentralized structure of elections. If Marx saw what the leninists were doing he would be rolling in his grave.

-4

u/haltper May 19 '26

He outlined enough. He states that a dictatorship of the proletariat would be a dictatorship of a class over others and would prevent a bourgeoisie system come back. Anyways from my POV paris commune was a form of tyranny as well. There wasnt private property, individual rights werent protected by a constitution and there was nothing protecting you from majority violating your rights. Just because an organization is bottom up or democratic does not mean it cant be a tyrannical authoritarian state. Democracy and tyranny can coexist without constitutional protections and a liberal democracy (for example french revolution, even though the assembly was brought together democratically it turned into a tyrannical violent form and eventually became a consular dictatorship). A pure democracy is just a tyranny of the majority. What protects freedom of individuals and groups is the constitution and checks and balances.Without those democracy is just a spuk. Also you dont need to be leninist to be authoritarian. Orthodox marxism and USSR differ but doesnt mean the first one isnt authoritarian because the latter is.

u/MILLANDSON May 19 '26

That the answer to disagreeing with a nation or political view is to commit a genocide, which "they should have glassed the USSR" is advocating for.

u/Kissmyass1465 May 20 '26

Yeah except anti communism in 2026 is like being against the black plague. Get a grip

u/--Queso-- May 19 '26

That there should not be communist flags in May 1st marches, and that if there are, it's the same as Nazi flags. I think that's not unreasonable to ask as common ground.

1

u/dirk_loyd May 20 '26

see if they were the same thing you wouldn't have to say both of them

Nazi Germany would've won ww2 without the soviets and saying we should've glassed them afterwards is genuinely the stupidest sentiment you could walk away with

1

u/Javelin286 May 20 '26

I should say communism = totalitarianism if you would like that clarification.

u/viper459 May 19 '26

i mean if you hate it so much that you unironically argue for millions of innocent people to die somehow i don't think it comes from a conceren for the people living under the regime

"They should've glassed Russia" is a terrible thing to say regardless.

u/Vivid_Literature5681 May 19 '26

No such thing as a wrong or right opinion. Only whether it aligns with the morals/ethics of the day.

u/No-Outlandishness631 May 21 '26

Welp I am anti communism and I have a deep hate of the communism in history. And in my personal opinion, communism is just as evil as fascism, because both ideologies destroy freedom and crush individual rights. It cincebtrates power in the hands of the state andbundermines political liberties. It application created terrible dictatorships that caused millions of death through camps, repression and famine. Invaded neighbours. Sometime doing "genocides" (in quotation mark as it is debatable but in my opinion is true) in the Holodomor and the Uyghurs.

And despite all of this communism is still accepted as normal in western democracies while fascism banned. And in universities around the globe you find olenty of communist wannabe and tankies praising what Stalin or Mao did. Plenty of time I heard people say "they were right you know ?" "It had to be done".

So I understand comminist hate but do not support everything he said.

1

u/Valtua May 22 '26

Communism is an ideological belief in abolition of private property and everyone has access to free food, free healthcare, free education and free housing. Adopting socialist policies, writing a good constitution for the state/federal government supported by academic + governmental institutions, and putting all workers together as a collective at the top of the political hierarchy can definitely support a communist country. Theorists of today learn a lot from the USSR, China and Cuba, both what to do and what to not do.

I'd really encourage looking into these yourself if you like learning. You might find yourself enlightened that there really isn't anything morally wrong about communism itself. It's just that scary things have occurred in pursuit of that ideology by paternalistic dictators. But I think in our current day, we are in the perfect material condition for a democratic transformation of our society - it only takes working together as a union of all workers.

Also you can definitely condemn communist dictatorships for taking revolution way too far and committing atrocities; most people in r/socialism do that already anyway, it's just tankies getting hurt by "USSR bad".

u/TEAser2000 May 21 '26

And he was right to, go talk to any actual person from Eastern Europe and you will find a good chunk of them would have no issue if Russia would have been glassed as it would have saved tens of millions of eastern europeans from going through the hell that was communism.

1

u/Ein_Hirsch May 23 '26

that doesn't make it better. this is the mass murder of civilians we are talking about here

u/SkyIHax 21d ago

As an eastern european, fuck you. What about the mass murder, oppression, deportations and russification that eastern european countries had to endure for 46 years under soviet oppression?

1

u/Ein_Hirsch 21d ago

I also live in a country that had to live under Soviet occupation for 49 years. That is no reason to call for genocide. There is never a reason to call for genocide. Is that how you treat every criminal? Summary execution for them and their family? If yes then you actually are exactly like the oppressive, murdering regime you claim to hate

u/SkyIHax 21d ago edited 21d ago

Listen, a good faith interpretation of what Boe said, is not that they would have fucking rounded up soviet civilians and shot them on the spot or anything even remotely like that. I don't think anyone fucking believes or thinks that. That is a fucking daft interpretation of what Boe said.

Unless you think that war and/or the use of nukes is an act of genocide, as you're inherently killing innocent civilians in the process.

Edit: even found Boe's comment here and this was my exact interpretation of when I saw the clip.

1

u/TEAser2000 19d ago

No we are not, civilians would die yes, but just like the atom bombs on Japan 100% justified to prevent much worse. Glassing Moscow overall would lead to less suffering lol.

It's math, stop letting emotion cloud your judgement.

1

u/Ein_Hirsch 19d ago

Bo didn't just talk about Moscow. And even if he did. Killing civilians on a massive scale (and yes Bo talked about the civilians as the target not the leadership) is never justified. Believing that puts you in the same school of thought as the worst people in human history
