Lots of moments of people looking into the camera and going "how could communism do this?" which is cringe, but otherwise it's a fantastic story of human drama and how bad shit can get. Funny, I read this morning that Gorby is now dead, weird timing.

The r/communism and r/communism101 subs are so fucking annoying. Like someone will come in with a question and immediately be attacked.

Most recently I saw someone on the 101 sub asking if they should join the DSA if it was the only option in their area. The top response literally started with "it depends how much damage you want to do to the world" and then went on a screed about how obviously the question was in bad faith, how the OP had already made up their mind and why even ask the question if they didn't want answers... the OP literally hadn't commented in the thread outside of their initial question.

I'm fully convinced those subs are an op to turn away budding leftists.

It's pretty sickening to watch, isn't it? And if you try to offer a more reasonable response - permaban.

Oh yeah, I have zero doubt that is exactly the case. And it fucking works. :agony-shivering:

If I hadn't already been a leftist who knew a little theory and had been exposed to genuine communist people online, I would have left the thread I mentioned above with a very low opinion of communists, modern online ones at least. Which is why the complete lack of real leftism allowed on reddit (and other social media) really concerns me. They have realized online radicalization can really work and they're working hard to shut that down immediately. There's no way a sub like the chapo sub could start, let alone grow now.
