malicious hexbears are taking advantage of people's trauma to turn them against the west folks (and judging by the recent survey, turning them trans too? kyle )

    you would fight half of hexbear at once if you thought it necessary just like the guy cyborg was talking about.

    Oh absolutely; but if I'm fighting you, it's probably because I still think there's something worth saving in there. It's when I become indifferent that you're fucked lmao.

    BPT when they first did that country club thing seemed like it had a relatively decent chance of actually being made up of mostly black people

    Not wrong! Also not wrong about the astroturf; reason I never felt cool around BPT was because I didn't know what to call it yet, but it felt wrong that so much skinfolk could be counted on to go to bat for people who even BEFORE the DNC's mask-off "go fuck yourself" energy, were obviously just taking our support for granted because who else are we gonna vote for, the party of the Klan? The me that exists these days knows them for the misleaders they've always been.

    (Honestly in hindsight, a lot of my bias against BPT might've been because I recognized the same manner of talking there that skinfolk on DemocraticUnderground tended to dabble in; and a lot of what started me down the path of ML was just rank, flagrant disgust for the misleadership I was perceiving on a subcon level even at that point in my life regarding the contradiction of being a Black democrat post-2000.)

      i'll always have a soft place in my heart for BPT though, seeing everyone freak out about how racist it supposedly was to try and make a subreddit about black people actually be majority black provided hours of entertainment even though I wasn't a socialist yet. just endless waves of my fellow crackers, as you would put it, showing their whole asses

        This is the heart of critical support. I'm not gonna sit here and front like watching stupidpol posters mald about them wasn't funny as fuck lmao. "Oh wah, they support segregation", "separatist" this and that aimed at the most milquetoast of misled liberals; my settler in white jesus 99.999% of your subs are white-dominated
