Please please please practice critical thinking skills and media literacy.

This is embarrassing.

Do better. Be critical. Be thorough.

      Bold assertion. I personally take several minutes per sentence because I'm neurotic as fuck and hate being wrong.

          I’m guessing you just watched my real time editing process lol.

          I did. And I relate. And why I never post on mobile lol

              The worst is when you catch your mistakes, and while in the edit window, you get three replies quoting the impulsive rant portion and it's like, "Fuuuuuuck me"

                  Hitting "send/reply" alleviates all anxiety. As a chronic gambler, I can say it's a dark tunnel.

          Occasionally i’ll scroll through my past post and comments to reread replies and see what got upvotes. If i notice grammatical errors or bad phrasing (of which there are often both) ill fix it even if it’s months old.

        My usual technique is to lay in bed with my laptop and try to respond to a post but accidentally fall asleep no more than a couple words into it, and then experience a timeless series of seemingly eternal night terrors, only to wake up and discover I was only out for 3 minutes, but somehow 20 paragraphs of effortshit has been typed out as if summoned out of the void.

        The AdamSandler post. If your only politics is "fuck america" that's perfectly valid. Especially if you're in the 3rd world

              no, criticism of america's enemies on a small leftist forum doesn't affect american foreign policy and their associated atrocities. how do fair bits of criticism carry water for the imperialists if it's actually fair (by which i mean not rehashed imperialists propaganda)

          Uncritically supporting the internal politics of an islamist nation is not, in fact, based. Religions should not have such institutional power

            But Ayatollah Khamenei will cry so hard if you call him a mean Islamist on an obscure leftist message board.

          Using regime is cringe in itself, its propaganda speech to differentiate "bad states"(regimes) from the "good states"(states/governments/administration), stop using literal regime change language if you're a leftist please.

        because criticism does nothing but provide support for the imperialists.

        So any ML mod that doesn't remove any criticism of China is being a hypocrite and should start right now. Do you think the chapo chat position of leftist unity is wrong and the ML mods should attempt to take over and ban anarchist posting?

            I'm serious, if you think criticism of non-American aligned states is THAT harmful, you should be arguing for suppression of those posts on this site. And holding anarchist views inherently unavoidably means being critical of those states.
