What is going on on the website?! Before Chapo was banned, I enjoyed scrolling through main every now and again. Now I'm afraid my brain mght rot from all the Chuds. But it's not only regular subs that are going to hell. Every second post on anarchist or lib-left subs is about the Uhygur genocide or a general China bad. I know reddit is beyond repair, but the broken pipeline is very sad. When I found Chapo I thought it was a "the left can't meme" sub and thought "this but unironically" for a couple of days before I understood you are all just libs. I learned what left anticommunism is, I started to get involved with real theory and my wordview has widened so much. I wish younger Comrads could go through the same.
Thats it, that's my rant.
Yeh, it wasn’t just chapo that got purged, it was so many left subs. Reddit wants their user base to be 80% libs and 20% chuds, and it looks like they got their wish. I haven’t looked at it since we got banned.
Except porn. Sorry @VolcelPolice.
Read the Art of War. Retreat is critical to guerilla warfare. Your enemies fight because of pride, you fight because of purpose. Keeping up a front there longer than necessary means we risk not fortifying safer ground.
You are so wrong. Reddit is a piece of shit,it is not comparable to the Mainland of China
Every second post on anarchist or lib-left subs is about the Uhygur genocide or a general China bad.
Not just China bad, but also a fuckton of unironic blue maga bullshit. r/COMPLETEANARCHY and r/AntifascistsofReddit have been particularly libby in the last month. r/DankLeft has flip flopped every other post, and we all know that LSC has been pure libshit for a long time.
r/COMPLETEANARCHY went private because the blue MAGA people couldn't shut up.
I mean, who would've thunk a sub for anarchists is, in reality, filled with fucking blue maga libs. Such a strange website.
Sometimes I go to the true anon sub, but that's mostly lib qanon now.
Otherwise, that place is essentially dead to me. I think they wanted 80/20 libs/chuds, but they got 20/80 at least in terms of post and comment creation.
Reddit has been very bad for a long time. As far back as 2014 the "most popular city" was a US troll farm.

Only subs worth visiting that aren't chock to the brim of Anti-Sino/Anti-Chinese/Anti-Communist/fucking chud propaganda
old.reddit.com/r/Sino
old.reddit.com/r/SendInTheTanks
old.reddit.com/r/GenZeDong
old.reddit.com/r/EuropeanSocialists
The rest of Reddit can go die as far as I'm concerned
Edit: Can't forget my boy old.reddit.com/r/FullCommunism
That place has been quarantined for years at this point and still keeps chugging
/r/GenZedong and /r/Sino are only places worth frequenting now, at least for me.
/r/gdz/ is the closest to the old chapo sub energy. i don't post though because they might find out i'm a millennial and i'll get the wall :(
Ah, r/fullcommunism... the last remainder of the golden age of r*ddit leftism
Where's my spray bottle, we don't mention that cursed shithole here.
Apparently thinking that China will most likely never reverse its market reforms equals that I support liberal democracy or anarchism. :deng-cowboy:
Yes, of course. While I might have doubts that China will return to a non-market economy at this point, it is the job of our Chinese comrades to determine what socialism is and act accordingly and siding with Liberals and Reactionaries against China, like the pro-HK-Protest People, like I was accused of doing, is cringe.
Or /r/okaybuddydengist if you're a filthy ultra who doesn't trust the plan
It was important for your curated ecosystem within reddit.
Social media is a plague on human psychology, I type into a hyper-bubbled reddit alternative.
lol we were playing "reddit or stormfront" back in 2011 and when it started being popular it was almost all very lib programmers with a few conservative/libertarian programmers. then the digg invasion with dumb gamer 14 year olds made the comment sections on defaults complete trash and there's never been good discourse on main parts of the site since then.
Lol was just thinking this scrolling through r/ironfront yesterday when the top post was just an anti-Stalin meme from r/neoliberal
Eh I guess not, but for a sub that purports itself as anti-fascist in 2020 they’re awfully cozy with Pinochet sympathizers and make a pint of distancing themselves from the left
I just got downvoted in r/gamingcirclejerk for posting a Xi send the nukes meme
It was always that bad you probably just avoided spaces where it was blatantly visible.
I've stayed subscribed to defaults like the news subs and OOTL specifically to track the general trends. Its fucking bad, folks.
