There are three types of takes out in the trenches. Standard "tankie" takes, standard "vote blue no matter who" shitlib takes, and bizarre, idiosyncratic takes that exactly one person on earth believes, but which they'll treat as the most obvious thing in the world.

Most recently, I was informed that Marxism is not worth studying on the basis that Marx culturally appropriated communism from indigenous Australians. PugJesus, one of the most prolific shitlib posters, has some great material on Marxism too.

The bizarre, ideosyncratic takes always seem to circle back around to, "And that's why you should vote blue no matter who, also China and Russia are committing genocide," but they spice things up and you get to play this fun little game of trying to decipher the brainworms while they yell at you.
