“You must be fun at parties.” Uh why would I want to party with Nazis?

“So edgy.” If I cared what liberals thought, I wouldn’t be a communist.

“You’re just a larper.” Larp it till you make it, am I right? Also, what have larpers ever done to you?

“Nazism and communism are the same.” Yes, Nazism is when you want to destroy Nazism forever rather than fund it the way you do.

    I think it's cause I just post here and nowhere else online, this just doesn't happen to me. Also generally speaking liberals are too decorum brained for insults which makes them pathetic weeny lovers, name calling and personal attacks are based. IRL, where I do speak to liberals trying to agitate at work and whatever, it's shooting fish in a barrel, there aren't many dedicated liberals working in a kitchen and exactly how hard you work vs your pay is reeeeeeal easy to see when you're making food, ordering food and doing the costing, the last bit of math is the sum of your wages, it's pretty fucking clear pretty fast. After that all you have to do is also be anti imperialist and be good at explaining history going back 10 years or sometimes as much as the early 20th century but that shit should be easy if you're a communist. Don't speak to liberals online, irl they're absolutely fuckjng paralyzed. If you're even sort of okay at rhetoric they will fold like superman on laundry day.

      i think you're right on this one. Liberals online like to pick apart sentences and scream at you to stay on topic or adhere to some complex rules of etiquette. In real life it's far easier to fluster them, especially if they can't link you to their favorite Medium article or whatever. I can't ever imagine a liberal trying to call me a tankie in real life. The idea of them speaking the word aloud is ridiculous and they'd know it. I think we'd both die from embarrassment on the spot.

      I've done union organizing and while most have been reactionary Trump types because of the area, we did have one smug liberal type. All we really had to do was say, "Hey, now's not the time." to the liberal and they'd always shut up just from that.
