yeah i was a newly minted socdem coming from vague left-libertarianism that often posted in r/politics and kept hearing about how scary r/cth was.

so i made a different account to go check it out (because god forbid i get banned from everywhere for touching the forbidden subreddit)

some of that stuff shocked me a bit at fiorst but only took me a few days to realize everyone was far more progressive then the so called "left as it gets" libs. also there was none of that reddit smarm and "personal responsibility, FAFO" BS.

then I was riding the sub along with the pod during the Great Bernie Ratfuck finally made the stalin, lenin and mao posting no longer seem shocking but instead deeply prophetic
