    Sounds like someone else has already explained the critical support thing to you, I didnt really understand the term at first either and English IS my first language, so I actually understand this one.

    I hope you can see that my comrade's defensive stance is because of past experiances and not anything personal.

    I actually dont disagree that people here sometimes make unfair assumptions about the person they're talking to. I remember the human and understand where they're coming from and why that assume that though (past experiences with people who are like that). I wish my friends would try to remember the human more too, but I get why they can forget because of their experiences. I hope that makes sense.

        I can actually understand all that very well. Sorry about your negative experience

        I do want to mention one thing though

        it’s this that made me consider your community dangerous, especially for minority groups.

        Our "weaponized anger" is quiet frequently used in defense of minority groups, particularly trans people. She's gone now but one of our original admins, TransComrade69, was militantly defensive of trans people and it really shaped how our community formed. We also do our best to do the same for other queer people, bipoc, the disabled and nuerodiverse, women, the poor, and (most relevant to the arguments we get into here) people from the global south.

        But I actually do understand how our community's stance can be offputting for some people and wouldnt recommend it to just anyone, even leftists.
