        I really need someone to explain all the random marxist leninists bogey-man bigotry that happens on this site at some point. Like this is a completely weird-o comment, about a political ideology that’s effecting a word filter for possible rascism? and on .world people still label it marxist?!

        I’m aware there is deep historical connotations which I haven’t spent years researching so I try not to defend or participate but it feels like since people push back against “instance hating”, we’ve gotta pour on any political hatred we could possibly see in the shadows. I’m just gonna assume this is another bad faith comment striking up fear and hatred till I learn otherwise.

          Man, it’s just classic tribalism and confirmation bias. People assume the most obnoxious voices are representative of all Communist spaces and that’s poisoned a lot of perception here. Folks love having a villain to pick on and reddit.world here has decided “tankies are the bad guy”.
