They have no interest in dialogue, and they have been consistently attacking us, our communities, and harassing our members.

Let’s use this post to share threads which we could intervene with comments, not attacking anyone but by unironically responding to their arguments, engage with each other’s comments, upvoting, imperializing EnoughCommieSpam into becoming a new GenZedong.

This will piss off many anti-communists and we will have fun in the process. It’s a win-win.

    What about posting links to videos of Chinese military exercises, or Russian strikes on Ukrainian army positions, and labeling them “tankies get destroyed?”

      Probably short term until they actually catch on. I’d be sure there’s some ambiguous enough footage out there that can be posted under the guise of Russian losses while they’re in fact Western. Quite simple enough considering their narrative has continuously been that “any Russian armor that does good is from Ukraine, any Russian armor that does bad is from Russia” which led to numerous accidents.

      As an example the person getting crushed inside their car by a transport vehicle. It was first a Russian vehicle; you’d point out the lack of marking; so their next fall-back was that it was a saboteur-commandeered vehicle. It was not. They really like to do a lot of mental gymnastics and that is what should be exploited.

    This will not last, in one or two weeks they will be bored. If we would do that it would draw more attention and the outcomes will be worst.

      EnoughCommieSpam will always be EnoughCommieSpam - they’re not going anywhere and don’t suddenly stop being against communists on Reddit once we’re gone. Not defending the idealism of the OP, but they are a cesspool requiring our attention.

      Our efforts would be compounded by focusing on friendly subreddits where our accounts won’t be banned as frequently, but that hasn’t happened yet and this is at least some move in the direction of action

        I’ve never said they will stop being against communists, but doing this will not help them stop doing attacks and it will draw more attention, they surpass us highly in numbers and it would be pointless to try and do shit over Reddit since they can ban us in an instant. Getting other communists here is a good step, but trying to go and attack liberals is not.

          Part of the magic behind doing those kind of things is that you don’t need a certain allegiance or affiliation; it doesn’t have to be known it’s anyone from here or anyone else. Black ops are fun.

            Making a post in a public forum is the opposite of a black op, if someone wants to do it that way it should be done in private, imo.

          Also, let’s work together to make a more long term plan. I have a heavy work day today but can set aside some time during breaks to strategize

          It will soon get to a point where the attacks they make will be categorically ineffective, and so I only see gains, albeit small ones, from doing it.

          @ana had a good comment here about how we might avoid negative consequences

      Great comment. Now if only they could read.
