    C@ is (or at least was, I haven't checked lately) run by the top mod from r/neoliberal, and there was at least one other mod who was literally just some socdem who constantly made sectarian bait posts and carried out aggressive purges of anyone who opposed the coup in Bolivia, only to get removed because they were also sexually harassing people on Discord. The whole subreddit is explicitly curated to stir up sectarian hatred. A lot of reddit is astroturfed to shit in order to whip as many people as possible into anti-communist frenzies.

    Fortunately I know of at least one person who snapped out of that, someone I knew from an unrelated discord server whose reddit account was all sectarian anti-ML shit on C@ who wound up deleting that account and identifying as an ML within a year of that.

      We have some successful Reddit ops running where subs are salted with anti-imperial and revolutionary communist mods. No doubt that’s happening in the opposite direction. We for sure know Nazis do that shit for fun and r/neoliberal has always been an astroturfed shithole
