      Yeah most of the left leaning subs have been overrun by lib brainrot, and the fact that we’re seeing more of it on lemmy is even more concerning lol

        I saw it happening. It was very strange. One day, I started seeing electorialists pop up, and then a couple weeks later, there were full-on libs. They were downvoted heavily, but then that just stopped happening and now it’s basically normal for there to be multiple libs and anarchists in every post of the previously communist subreddits.

        I personally believe it was very intentional and done by some surveillance agency somewhere, because massive subreddits don’t just fundamentally change over the span of a couple weeks.

          I’ve seen this happen in other reddit alternatives before. Usually fascists and/or feds will organize and set up themselves the communities for the communists with them as moderators. They let these communities fill up with actual communists, and then they call on their buddies to come in and brigade, while they do nothing about it or even silence the communists. The community is then taken over by them, the communists become demoralized and the platform loses the majority of its users.

          I think it’s a scheme to both keep Reddit alive and to prevent communists from having their own place to organize. Sometimes they even brag about it as having “trollled” the communists.

      Can’t have shit on a fed-controlled platform. I wonder how much longer will r/WorkersStrikeBack last, since it’s also modded by communists.

      That’s good to know. Shame that it’s become like that.

      That was like years ago, when i got on reddit in 2019 it was already like that, most content on that sub was always muricans being “healthcare pls” and it was the lowest common denominator with more basedness rarily achieved.

      Now it’s probably even worse since it’s one of the last remaining big subs percieved as “commie” which most likely brings more brigades there.
