Well, not the same level (conservatives are clearly worse) but the line is increasingly becoming blurred in this day and age. Maybe I am looking at this wrong, but they are far more likely to shit on communism (while calling themselves lefist) and making excuses for the United States

I know "leftist infighting" has been a thing since forever, but it really seems like they're closer to reformed capitalism than anything resembling socialism...

    We don’t get to write off 99% of people as “too far gone”. We agitate, educate, organise. We bully, pontificate, cajole, do whatever it takes. If the communist dream is to have any hope for a future we simply cannot afford to emulate the Western socialists of yesteryear and passively watch from our high towers as the world burns

    :xi-clap: here here.

    This statement does not exclude shitlibs, succdems, hogs, your gramp-gramp that shouts at his TV, veterans that hated what they did, the annoying protestants that knock on your door to ask you if you know the good news - and the answer you give is that you realized Jesus was the first communist and that salvation for humanity comes through emulating his actions of uplifting the working poor -, your apartment neighbors, your coworkers, etc.

    Communists speak to anyone who listens and listens to anyone who speaks to them in turn. Be tactful of course lol. Don't screm about how you want to make Stalin or Mao look like Jesus with the amount of society reforming you want to do

      I mean, if anything Jesus was even more radical than Stalin. Basically just walked around pushing the big communism button.
