    I do it all the time. Done it several places in this thread even. Though lying and dishonesty from a joke like you. Who’s shitty hot takes are regularly posted on and laughed at in many communities. That’s completely on brand.

    For every weak and tepid bit of support I’ve ever given the DNC during the presidential election. I could give you 10 to 13 calling them out. Because I do it all the time. However terminally online little trolls like yourself aren’t interested in facts or reality. And your disapproval is a badge of honor.

    Or Marxism and Marxist-leninist.

    Say what you will about Democrats. Outside of the elected ones. Most of them don’t have a strong ideology. Just actually wanting things to improve. But I’m sure of how to go about it. And when you approach them like that. Are plenty likely to be sympathetic and allies.

    Oh God yes Jubilee and that surrounded bs. Though the recent one with Jordan Peterson was somewhat cathartic. Yeah they get some of the most toxic ones.

    Yep the majority of them are more like my brother-in-law or my SO. She at least realized back in February the mistake she made. Though I can understand it. As a military daughter who spent her life going from Base to Base as her father moved them around the world. Republican bullshit is sort of ingrained in her family. And she doesn’t actually engage with a lot of the news personally. Instead it gets filtered to her through family.

    Brother-in-law came from a privileged bougie family. They own a number of stores in the area. All the fancy tchotchkies as a child. Summers and other regular holidays throughout the year at the lake. Started out from 3rd and thought he made a home run. With a very similar story. Hereditary republicanism. No critical thinking. For One Shining Moment talking about how Democrats and Republicans both suck. On which we could agree. Only to inevitably return back to the Republican talking points. That situation is a whole other shit sandwich unfortunately though.

    First I agree that marxists are generally chill it’s the hyphenated ones that typically are not. And because we can agree on that. I think we should be able to agree that they aren’t who is being pictured above in the comic.

    Perhaps it was misunderstanding, perhaps it was talking past each other. Either way fair enough.

    Others get the same treatment. I can count plenty of times where I’ve been told similar because I post from a .world domain. The difference being, of course correct me if I am wrong. That our administrators don’t tend to be as problematic. It isn’t 2019 anymore. ML isn’t the only server. If you are focused on organization and outreach. Maybe it’s worth considering finding a new instance that would would help in fostering that.

    As I syndicist I absolutely gave some thought about joining an instance that better reflected my sensibilities. Though some recent events have definitely made me reconsider on that. I honestly think I’m happy an a much more diverse platform. Even if on the fediverse our diversity is pretty homogenic.
