    Between this and the fake news comm, I'm rethinking trying to get comrades more involved on this site. Like, it's just embarrassing and too much trouble to have to explain "oh yeah those really active comms that appear completely indistinguishable from reactionary trash are actually just ironic."

    The fact that all of these "jokes" could be posted on reddit-logo with complete sincerity makes me suspect a lot of this content isn't even ironic. I mean, if I was a reactionary trying to cause trouble for a leftist community, creating and participating in these kinds of comms is exactly how I would go about it.

      I like the fake news comm. Genuinely funny from time to time.

      This is just a joke sub like love for landlords and other spaces. They're not spaces I use, although I mod gamingcirclejerk which has a similar vibe in doing irony-posting here and there but I do think subs like it have done good work over on reddit in helping develop people's understanding of what to oppose.

      I don't necessarily think it holds the same value over here on lemmy, but it might do later?

      They're both because of one person. This is completely sus and is exactly what a smarter reactionary would do.
