      I've spoken with a few users, carefully pointing out how by being anti-Marxist but not also being anti-liberal, and further having no links to theory of any sort beyond aesthetic choices, opens them up to opportunism. They seemed to vaguely accept it, hope it can get through to them.

          See, it's entirely self-driven and egotistical, I get grim satisfaction from asserting my knowledge of theory against the smug liberals. It isn't healthy, nor is it out of any grander vision, I still haven't picked a party to join yet. It's just me being a debatebro, albeit less of one than I used to be on Reddit.

          I appreciate the sentiment, I just think my energy would be more productive elsewhere.

            Don't say that! i look up to your outwardly patient understanding when you handle them. I don't have the patience, so i respect your high effort

              I appreciate it! I do. However, I can't deny that I do it for selfish reasons, haha. The Lemmy.world mods started removing my comments calling out the democrats support for genocide though, so that's even worse.

        They blocked Hexbear immediately, hopeless, that place really does just have an aesthetic.
