Am I the only one who gets bunch of posts from leftist and even communist subs/circlejerks in their feed? It’s kinda weird to see genzedong and similar popping up in hot/rising feed. This just hopefully some of the growing pains of a new platform.

    Hi! I’m a dirty communist from a dirty communist instance. Consider that these things aren’t circlejerks, consider instead that generally we have the opinions that we do for a reason and when we discuss things, it might be a good faith discussion but your guard may (possibly for warranted reasons) be up. Please grant us the faith that it’s not a circlejerk. I’m also open to answering any questions that might alleviate your (or anyone else reading’s) notions that we are a circlejerk.

      I said I was a capitalist and a 70% tax was absurd - nothing else - and the next three comments direct to me had the most horrific insults and threats of physical violence against me and my family, the server owners removed them. If you’re level-headed and want to debate the merits of each system, you’re by far the exception.

        I don’t think the average terminally-online Marxist-Leninist revolutionary larper is representative of all communists.

        I myself am a communist, and will gladly discuss these issues, without threats.
