[dude with glasses in a communist t-shirt, arguing] I’m the only leftist here, your opinions are TRASH

[dude holding a theory book on smug, arguing] Read theory you losers, you’re all WRONG

[dude in an anarchist hoodie, arguing] Nuh-uh, I’m the only leftist here, you’re SHITLIBS

[the three dudes are now caught in a cartoon fight, glasses gone flying, punches everywhere, while a firing squad of nazis are targeting them with rifles]

[a confused nazi asks] Why… why are they still arguing?

    If you are focused on organization and outreach. Maybe it’s worth considering finding a new instance that would would help in fostering that.

    I’m not trying to be glib, I don’t think any instances are good for that, I use other platforms with more reach for that sort of thing.

    I come here because I can see what other anarchists and Marxists are saying about the news and shoot the shit with them. Plus I can access the largest trans instances from here, I don’t really have any ambitions beyond that.

      Fair enough. I can do that as well. Just without all the domain baggage. And if it is something that bothers you. It’s something to look at. Something I saw you actually cop to elsewhere on the topic.

        I mean while it is annoying getting called a red fascist out of pure tribal reaction, I’m also pretty stubborn when it comes to peer pressure emilie-shrug

            “you’re TRIGGERED lol!”

            Modern democrats really are just the Republicans of ten years ago.
