Just finished reading through that thread, was pulling the :sicko-yes: face the whole time, nice to know there are still some leftists on Reddit. Good shit.
There's still quite a bit of them. I stopped posting because I had enough but I see left or at least left-adjacent views dominate comment section on /r/politics and /r/news.
There's even perhaps a very slight drop in "CHYNA BAD UYGHUR GEYNOCIDE HONG KONK" posts.
Oh for sure, but it seems to have cooled down a bit. The peak was in like july-august I'd say.
I left /r/technology in May because it was literally all posts about Chyyyna and tiktok bad.
omg is that a hecking communism time to donate 15 dollars to reddit
I will not be mad if Parenti TikToks are what finally brings revolutionary consciousness to America.
man i really need to get back to left tiktok. i'd built up a really good collection of leftists to follow, but then my id was deleted and now i can't get back to left tiktok no matter how hard i try.
Lol this got crossposted to /r/anarchism and I’m currently arguing with a guy who thinks parenti is the “Ben Shapiro of tankies” and that “tankies should engage with their own theory more and anarchist theory as well” while two sentences before he said “I don’t care enough to read parenti”. Fucjing hate reddit omg
Now lets say, hypothetically, Nicaragua was being attacked. Now lets also say, for the sake of argument, that the US was funding these attacks. So it would make sense that the Sandinistas would set up a , lets say, a security force to prevent these attacks am I not correct? Now this could be considered authoritarian by some, but these libtards don't consider what would happen if they let their guard down now do they? Facts don't care about you're feelings
My whole life I’ve seen the definition of “socialist” slide more and more liberal, but anarcho-bidenist reddit is actually the most liberal community I’ve ever seen consider themselves socialist. Not a single anarchist I’ve met irl has ever been as hostile to socialism or other leftists as reddit “anarchists”.
I genuinely believe the average reddit/twitter anarchist would shoot Fred Hampton had they been alive in his time.
I got banned from r/anarchism for defending castro so I can’t really help them out
Oh believe me it is, it’s what happens when you only post in epic one true ideology echo chambers
This comment is pretty ironic given that people here assume that the site is under attack from the CIA itself because there are more posts critical of China.
this site isnt a monlith lmao, there are posts critical of china on here all the time.
Oh, sorry, how many heavily popular comments about this do i have to cite exactly for you to believe that there are users unironically believing in this shit? Because there were a lot from the last few days, i could do this for a while.
That's what I hate the most about random anti-parenti comments on reddit. I don't particularly like Parenti's writing very much because it's kind of pop history for socialists and sacrifices scholarship by polemicizing too much, but come on, if you actually read it you could at least criticize it properly. I doubt that "anarchist" has even read much anarchism (not to say you have to read a bunch of theory, but if you're gonna spout stuff about said theory you probably should).
The most upvoted post (by gothlaw) is trying to deflect to the leaders of 'those countries' and just posted to commiespam on reddit saying they are getting mauled, arguing that result for a left wing problem
some good laughs in their post history too
I still think a Federal marshal will be waiting on him as he exits the WH, with an arrest warrant and extradition writ to remand him to the State of New York pursuant to a series of indictments that have been held under wraps to date.
big brain guy
