yeah, smh @ people other than me on this site calling each other comrade, I am the one true leftist.
fr though I don't think that one's a problem — if feckless libs and succdems want to launder historically communist terms to make them more main-stream palatable, that's fine with me. Makes it easier to talk to them and move them left, and I don't think they'll be able to change the meaning of "comrade" in any meaningful way the same way that they might water down or misuse terms like "imperialism" or whatever
Lol yeah fair enough. In my experience, "liking communist aesthetics" is a pretty good gateway to "liking communism" so personally I find it easy to engage with that type of person, but finding that exhausting is super fair.
