    There are two types of “patsocs” as people call them, they’re both extremely small groups who dislike western marxists for very different reasons.

    “MAGA communists” are like this, hammering home memes for engagement, they don’t believe in anything. Sameera Khan, Infrared, and Hinkle fall into this category. They have politics which are repulsive to everyone.

    “patsocs” write little books about how MLK Jr. made curtsies to the minor progressive aspects of the American Revolution. If they briefly appeal to the “MAGA communist” people, it is because they believe in talking to receptive people who have misguided ideas to correct them rather than scolding people outright. They run into the same issue there as dealing with NATO-anarchist people: it’s just a social media group that collectively attracts attention.

    The latter group is quite agreeable unless you read Settlers and refused to ever read volume 3 of Capital. It’s much easier to correct their ideas than “anarchists” for the same reason why you people can be seen demonstrating on behalf of “Israel” in “Germany”. It’s a way of being anticommunist while feeling good about yourself instead of hating women.
