i wasnt saying an individual shouldnt label themselves as communist/anarchist, but that the movement as a whole shouldnt use those labels. i dont know the full history of that sub except that it turned into a shitshow.
sure it's smart if you just wanna have a forum for people to bitch about their jobs, fine, nothing wrong with that I guess, but then you can't be surprised when you say something radical and the users all want you kicked out.
they could have, but they wanted it to be popular and that wouldn't have done it. it's smart to do anarchist or commie shit and not label it as such.
They were also actively banning communists and revolutionary anarchists (in particular Syndicalists).
I get not labeling yourself as communist on reddit, but they also were pruning out the leftwing of their community

yeah for sure, I’m agreeing with you, sorry if that wasn’t clear. Probably still salty about being banned from there hah
They were banning Marxists and “tankies”
