I think it’s fun to make very socialist comments in subs that are very much not socialist, but like not use any socialist words, and then get a lot of upvotes from people who would call me a tankie in a heartbeat if they realized. I don’t think I’m changing anyone’s mind btw, I don’t think I’m doing anything important, I just think it’s funny to write one of those a couple times a month lmao.

I also just need some outlet to disagree with libs on the internet, as lots of sorta-libs-who-don’t-follow-politics surround me irl, and I don’t want to be that guy to them, as they are my friends. It’s also just fun to practice arguments at random people, so you can see what works, and what doesn’t without any real consequence. There are people I actually want to convince in real life, might as well prototype my arguments when I can.

Also it’s entertaining to yell at fascists. Like yeah, I should touch grass, but Redditors being mean to me doesn’t really bother me, so it’s not like I’m losing anything doing it. It is nice however to have this place, where I can go to relax a bit, if I don’t feel like having /r/europe people in my replies.
