It just feels difficult to have meaningful conversations on here sometimes. Like yes I dislike America, but I don't need to act like nothing good has ever come out of it. Maybe China is better than America, but I don't want Xi nuking American cities. I don't think war is suddenly cool and good because Ukraine has some nazis in it. Not everyone I disagree with is some bumbling mass of idiocy, a lot of times we just differ on certain core values.

    On the flipside, I've introduced a couple trans comrades to it who aren't very politically aware, but are very wary of online spaces generally. And they were so happy and relieved that we go hard, basically. It make it an obviously safe and welcoming space for them.

      Fuck this. Radical inclusion means not fucking tolerating “earnest posts” from uneducated bigots. If they genuinely want to learn, they’ll read through the site and self-crit. Fuck ‘em.
