Taintrunner posted:I'm not gonna tell anybody what to think, but it does seem pretty funny that people talk about some lefty subreddit in hushed tones and then every time someone attempts some epic brutal Medium takedown it only grows more popular. So I checked the top posts of the past month out of curiosity and it's, like uh, here: I’m sad that I understand most of the twitter references in this list. also “culinary imperialism” is a quality username.

i would like to take this time to point out that the Soviet union had excellent results with local solutions to a global problem, enough that it inspired revolutions in other places. Counter revolutions are apparently hard to pull off if you just get tired of playing softball and either kill all the capitalists or throw them into a labor camp

Lightning Knight posted:Jesse Singal writes TERFy articles for the Atlantic, this is not some great mystery, he’s well known for it. okay. so i read the stupidpol thread about it and they seem to be having a bit of an issue with this stuff as well. so i think writing off a sub based on hosting someone who you disagree with about trans issues is kinda dumb, especially when the sub clearly isn't in full agreement on those issues either.

Oh I don’t read this poo poo either way, I gave up Reddit last year because it’s just a dumb website. I just think hosting Jesse Singal is a pretty poo poo thing to do and he has nothing of value to say for leftists.

the biggest thing on stupidpol by far is the appropriation of woke language by capital which I feel like gets a hell of a lot of play here so it’s funny to see Twitter people say stupidpol is gonna incite mass shooters and every user needs to be doxxed and exiled from DSA

the comments were calling singal out at least and reading another thread about trans issues they were arguing TERFs are awful for doing idpol from the right, which is an interesting take to consider.
