This is because some chuds are working class and just hate liberals but don’t know that socialists exist.

Liberals tend to be wealthier, so they have more invested in the system.

Old-fashioned conservatives also tend to be loaded, which likewise means that few would ever convert.

Thoughts? I wasted my day arguing with a bunch of libs on reddit. The only chud I talked with just told me he’s going to check out Revolutionary Left Radio. He started the conversation by almost threatening to kill me but changed his tone very quickly when I busted out my socialist clichés. The libs, meanwhile, just kept twisting their brains into pretzels.

    No.

    Your average chud is a racist homophone who thinks socialism is literally the devil. Talk to a lib, however, and it's likely they will hold the following opinions:

    • Racism Bad
    • Homophobia Bad -Global Warming Is Bad

    Some might even be able to point out some of the more obvious flaws in capitalism.

    Now, libs do uphold the system that perpetuates these things, but at least they recognize that they are actual problems, unlike chuds. Also, when chuds do move "left", they usually gravitate to Stupidpol or some shit. I'm getting weary of the outright hatred of liberals in leftist spaces recently. Like it or not, they're our main source of new "recruits", at the risk of sounding dogmatic. Hell, I've even seen "Better fash than libs" rhetoric which is the big yikes.

    Most of the time, i've had better luck with libs.

      I’m surrounded by libs so that partially explains my frustration. Gun to my head, I’ll take them over chuds any day.
