    The number of pro-communist posts in here is comical. The amount of anti-capitalist posts is almost comical. Obviously related to some degree.

    The lack of posts outside of a few main news and politics communities is frustrating.

        It’s far from perfect, but it isn’t the cause of every single issue anyone’s ever had like people on here would have you believe

          What’s funny is these tankies are making the whole left look bad and I have to remind myself that these people are a tiny minority of disaducated extremists and not to let them put a bad taste in my mouth for anything socialist. I noticed their existence and rhetoric was pushing me right and now I’m realizing they’re very likely conservative trolls, fascists trying to make the left undersireable. A social democracy is what I look forward to, not licking putin’s aashole.

            I once stumbled upon a declassified CIA document about how to squash leftist movements from the inside (I haven’t been able to find it again)…a lot of online communists act just like that document said to.

            You wish. And that sounds like something one of them would say, “left is when good, if they do a bad, they’re on the right.”

            At some point, we have to face the facts that there are also bad people on the left. It is what it is, it doesn’t mean the whole left is bad, we can squabble about proportions of hexbear/lemmygrad user types to liberals all day, but to pretend that any leftist that says dumb, authoritarian, or downright immoral things is just a right winger trying to discredit the left is Q level “Crisis Actor” style conspiracy horse shit, with all due respect.

      It’s sad so many capitalism cheerleaders migrated here, considering most of us are literally here fleeing capitalist greed rot.

      Some just refuse to learn. The sunk cost fallacy of “I’ve committed my life to this thing, and no amount of evidence will ever make me accept my mistake as a mistake!”

      Should have just stayed to be disrespected by Spez in the name of his profit. He’s a good capitalist.
