What year do you think was the summit of the old CTH sub? I would say 2017. The response to the Charlottesville riots were fucking epic.

    The early primaries leading up to nevada. All of the meme candidates and seeing kamala/beto/pete get humiliated, classic. I was already disillusioned by electoral politics from 2016 but seeing the entire establishment and media class go from ignoring bernie to desperately clawing at literally any way to attack Bernie in real time was so surreal. Also the content on the sub was at its absolute peak

        Yes, although I look back with a bit of a weird feeling at seeing the Pete and Amy ones in the three days between SC and Super Tuesday. I was celebrating until I realized what that meant a few days later.

          I remember laughing when the first of them dropped out, then when I heard the second one dropped, I felt that pit in my stomach... :(
