A while back, I infiltrated a far right message board.

I happened upon a conversation between two Neo Nazis arguing about the holocaust. One of them was arguing that the number of victims were exaggerated. The other was arguing that it didn’t happen, that it was a fabrication, but it should have happened.

First as a tragedy, then as a farce.

        Lefty Twitter isn’t great either. It’s not horrid shit like this but it’s lots of Maoists or Orthodox Marxists telling you that you know nothing about Marx. Fun on occasion with the right follows but lame people are everywhere on Twitter, I like the ‘Grad a lot more for many reasons

          It’s basically this 99% of the time.

          not only bizarre political positioning, also overall toxic behavior, I’ve seen people with palestine flag and hammer and sickle unicode characters that can make you think thrice before calling it comrade, anyway fuck twitter

          IKR. Bunch of them are quite young tho. Not an excuse for obnoxious behaviour ofc, but it’s understandable as they’re finding their place. Give them few years and they’ll calm down.
