:yea:

I probably hadn't thought about that awful podcast in over a year. Went over to r/redscarepod out of curiosity, and this was there. I guess they've done a full reactionary heel turn, to literally no one's surprise.

Comments on this indicate it's real, and the commentators, as awful as fans of that podcast are, were dunking on her, too.

      My 2 cents:

      Not "patriotic socialists" or nazbols. People who like leftist policies but don't really put it all together in some sort of coherent political ideology because caring about things is for losers.

      And I think the whole red scare / cum town community is like this site's Oort Cloud for wreckers, if this site was earth and wreckers were like comets. I really don't think we get any chuds or liberals who try and wreck shit. It's people whose politics might be a bit closer to our own but think that wrecking is "funny" because we care about things.

        The folks most interested in wrecking always come in with this intense partisan passion, posting troll-bait and calling everyone a cop or a pedophile or whatever.

        The Red Scare / Cum Town crew never seemed to have that kind of energy. They're more the cynical :sit-back-and-enjoy: wing of leftist politics. Just kinda whining about how everyone sucks and Leftism will never actually work.

      I'd say they're contrarians first and foremost. If a mainstream figure says something there's going to be some users that oppose it. Other than that, a good portion are apolitical, another good portion are Marxists, with a minority of conservatives.

      Most of its users are anti-imperialist, economically liberal and socially conservative
