We're going to need to participate on normie platforms like reddit in order to get more users & content here. We're also going to want to have a place on reddit (and elsewhere) where some of our content can thrive and become more accessible.

Apparently, Facebook is already marking our URL as spam. I'd imagine reddit will follow if not already. So we can't just dump links onto every marginally left-wing space.

Let this be a thread to spitball some ideas.

    can't forget r/antiwork, a bunch of disillusioned folks with a scattering of socialists thrown in. prime grounds to radicalize people who hate capitalism but haven't quite gotten around to attributing their particular problems with capitalism directly yet

      Throw these on that pile

      /r/lostgeneration /r/studentloandefaulters /r/collapse /r/anticonsumption

      Edit. The whole /r/talesfromretail universe is probably good, too.

        Collapse is interesting, it used to be somewhat right-leaning, but has moved left a lot in the last couple of years

          Yeah, noticed that, too. Eventually it's hard to ignore capitalism as the villain if you are watching the world burn

          Really? I've gotten the impression recently that r/collapse trending towards malthusianism and eco-fascism rather than de-growth and sustainability.
