I love that sub, or I used to. After Chapo was banned, it became infested with libs just yelling at people to vote for Biden and how he was going to magically make everything better (these people seemingly have disappeared now that their savior won). I've met some great Marxists on there who do a better analysis of materialism than anything I read on here. It's better than the edgelords who just clap their hands to anything China does and hope we all suffer just cause we are stuck in Amerikkkkkkkkkkkkkkka.
In the past few months however, it's become infested with ecofascists who make topics about "depopulation" and word everything about "over-growth" and "over-population" as to be what is going to cause the collapse of civilization. Some of them go full mask off about COVID being a blessing in disguise cause it's killing people. The most annoying posts on there are the ones about climate change that are framed around a personal responsibility as if it's all our own fault that the earth is being burned up.
That sub has a lot more realistic people who aren't denying how bad things are, but it's also got it's fair share of reactionaries.
Got a lot of genuine lefties too. It goes through ecofash waves, but those guys end up getting chased out. Can't speak for recently, I've more or less quit Reddit.
