Get a load of this user, supposedly this comm is supposed to be making fun of reactionaries doing the “vuvuzuelaiphone” thing but suspiciously is posting nothing but anti tankie memes, curious 🤔

Edit: to be 100% accurate because I’m not a liberal, it appears that the comm name is misleading and it’s just a general meme sub for “leftists”, still quite funny that the only memes they’re posting are anti tankie memes

Another totally serious and not laughable community. Why do reactionaries like this think they’re leftist?

    I’d have to disagree, with my own anecdotal evidence. Remember, there’s plenty of people who aren’t staunch anti-communists but have had too much capitalist propaganda in the US education system. Reeducation takes time.

    I’m still working to try to figure out what the truth is and what I am, but I’m glad I found this community.

      Exactly comrade! It is so demoralizing when every person is so deep in their own shit to realize what the world really smells like, but a hint of fresh air can start anyone on a journey to re-education and realization. Even myself, as this is where I came from.

      I’m a self-selected individual for learning. I seek out knowledge myself, not everybody is this way. But with enough time and effort others will understand, especially when it gets so bad that it’s hard to defend the status quo anymore. And we’re getting there now, hence the rise in different flavors of communism.

        Yeah, also stinks that the education system has to be so full of reactionaries intentionally spreading capitalist propaganda while acting like only the communists do it.

        At least the Sanders campaign helped people wake up to the idea socialism is beneficial and not a dirty word!
