      I question if they’re even communists, considering most commie-spaces throw them out, and I’ve never actually seen them talk about communism in the modern day.

        Marxist-leninist is the term they use (.ml) which should be called stalinism as that’s it’s ideological father.

        If called out they can confront with huge diatribes with often ready maar copy pastes from red sails.

            Inability to create honest discourse. It’s why they rely on copy-paste responses for most comments and an image macros of a pig shitting on its own balls when you really get them cornered in a fallacy.

              Also why they rely on brigading/“dunking”. It shuts down any real discussion and makes it clear they’re out of actual arguments.

                Fortunately, they have never actually tried to ‘dunk’ this community. I think it’s because they fear they’ll be mocked and questioned.

            Easily sucked in an information funnel that’s very hard core. This is not unique. In the nineteenth century some hard core communists bored against help for laborers, as they felt it would happen their appetite for revolution.

            Mostly salon communists, mind you.
