    Do you want a leftist sub but are tired of people criticizing Joe Biden? Want to pretend you're just like MLK Jr but don't want to be exposed to Russian misinformation such as he was assasinated by the FBI? Tired of complaining about Trump only to be reminded that Joe Biden is doing the exact same shit? Come on down to r/hugefuckingliberalswithoutedge

          TheAnalysis.news is the best leftist materialist online news source you'll find. They focus mostly on foreign policy, financialization, climate change, nuclear weapons, and unions. They do not carry water for Democrats nor do they practice the 'Drumpf two scoops Russia' model of criticizing American conservatism. Half of the Grayzone people got their start working for Jay at TheRealNews, which was co-founded by a Black Panther and a Chavista. When Assange was arrested, he was holding a book of Paul Jay's interviews with Gore Vidal.

          But take pride in your ignorance to own the libs

              I mean, by definition, you are being ignorant of the subject matter. Furthermore, you're bragging about not knowing about the subject matter.

                Have you not yet realized I never said anything about the video in my original comment? You're still here trying to push this argument when you didn't even get the point.

      That's not why this sub exists. P_K created it in contrast to the anarcho-edgelords that were threatening him at the time, and (along with /r/AnarchismOnline and a small cluster of others) they mostly served as his personal vanity project.

    ya, the name of this sub really didn't make sense to me

    at first I thought it meant something like 'to leftism and beyond' as in there is no 'edge' to how far left you can go

    then after looking at it a bit, it seemed to be more like 'leftish' civility libs that think they are the only 'true leftists'

    maybe I'm just too doomer-pilled to be tuned into 'inside baseball' US politics anymore - after the 2020 primary it just feels like self harm

      It was made specifically as a counterpoint to Chapo by that one nerd.
