    I always love when people tell tankies and other people in the "AuthLeft" to read more.

    Like, isn't reading and reading more, like the "AuthLeft" stereotype?

    Isn't the joke that tankies can't get anything done because they spend all their time fighting in book clubs?

    Also, lol at pointing out 1984 and Animal Farm, as if every American isn't forced to read one of those in high school.

      When where you fall on the political compass is nothing more than an online aesthetic completely detached from any real world political involvement, or even an online attachment to real world activism ffs, you end up with people who identify with a square in a political compass and nothing more.

        "I clicked similar things to you, we should kill the people who clicked different things" is the future of ideology

        I agree, but especially with these pcm types, they're at least aware of the stereotypes of each of those over simplified political spectrums. So like even a slightly aware pcm'er would know that telling someone of the "Authleft" to read is pretty unaware and shows you have less political knowledge of those outside your own political belief than even the average pcm'er.

      There was that time cops released a statement that it was too hard to infiltrate Socialist groups because "they read too much"
