Most of you are MLs right? Did you do a patsoc purge? Probably.

I'm surprised at such the large userbase, we have around 300-500 active in total. (don't really take my word for it)

I'm @Adoraism-Stalinism on Lemmygrad.ml btw if you want to verify

    For whatever reason, the online Chapo 'fanbase' has never really been the quasi-marxian demsocs of the podcast. It's mostly always been tankies, as long as I've known. This is where that subreddit moved to. It was also kind of the only good left sub at the time, the way GZD was more recently.

      Oh there was still a good amount of struggling over China on the old sub. /r/moretankiechapo started for a reason, after all

        yea I would say the sub got increasingly more tankie during the 2020 primary cycle as they ratfucked Bernie in slow motion

          The subreddit 2020 primaries meme of

          "Where did that bring you? Back to me :lenin-shining: "

          definitely did, in fact, bring be back to Lenin, as I'm sure it did for many others back then

            Yup. I will never forget it. I would have gone down this path regardless after Super Tuesday, but it so happened that seeing that post was the moment I gave up on electoralism. I wonder if whomever posted that knows how many people were affected by that fucking Avengers meme.
