"getting into reddit posting fights is a waste of time" is hard to argue against
But come on, you basicaly used that springboard to rant about how any leftist strongly holding an obvious and relevant for most communists worldwide and historicaly position like the one OP mentioned ("social democracy sucks and socdems arent to be allied with") and arguing for it anywhere rn in America (including when you see some releveant discussion online) is some counterproductive heavily ideological messianic pathology that puts material conditions second
I think what's getting lost in translation here is I'm making critiques of individuals, not organizations. I want and expect left orgs like DSA and PSL to have an explicitly anti-imperialist position and announce so to the world.
But individual actors arguing with each other online, especially on reddit, is just jacking off in the wind. It's a demonstration of loyalty to your chosen ideological tribe, which on an individual level is about as meaningful as arguing over whether xbox is better than playstation
