You need to learn how to speak to reddit. If you do that you can achieve anything anywhere on the site. Reddit has a very specific tone and style that it likes and once you manage to find a style that sufficiently panders to reddit you can get just about anything to get upvoted.
It is pure practice. Learn how to pander for upvotes. Pander for upvotes hard.

If this sounds :cringe: and too online to anyone, remember that figuring out mass communication is an essential part of any successful leftist project.
It is legitimately a testing ground for your ability to phrase leftist ideas and theory in a manner that appeals while still being blatantly and openly communist. With immediate scored feedback.
We do not need to hide we need to learn to fucking communicate as completely open communists in a way that appeals.
Yup. And beyond the testing ground piece, lots of people do change their political opinions based on what they read online. So there's a direct effect, too.
To add to this -- this is why communists should be practicing, editing, re-editing and re-re-editing their rhetoric online.
On reddit when you find something that works, a specific style of phrasing things, a specific presentation method -- that will work over and over and over again.
Save what works. Re-use it. Edit it and edit again. Improve it.
Yes. And anyone that disagrees with that has to explain how fascists grew without the internet. They very clearly built themselves on it successfully, and continue to do so.
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to be a redditor. The website is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the posts will go over a typical internet user's head. There's also reddit's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into its characterisation- the site's philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. Redditors understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of jokes, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike reddit truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in reddit's existential catchphrase "Narwhal Bacon," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as spez's genius wit unfolds itself on their computer screens. What fools.. how I pity them. 😂
Yeah but also things like "If you only read one political book in your life, read Blackshirts and Reds by Michael Parenti" can get upvoted there.
