Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

In their first comment too. I mean I know Reddit is a cesspool and I know r/communism is Gonzalo Central, but damn, it's infected far. I went back on the platform to promote my articles because despite the malding, it drives a lot of traffic lol. Otherwise I would never touch that website (though the TrueAnon subreddit loves them and it creates interesting discussions, I'm not gonna lump them in with the rest of Reddit like that).

I forced that person in a struggle session over their take and they moved the goalposts until they decided to disengage lol. But it's okay, they know what they said.

r/TrueAnon is basically the only left-wing sub still worth engaging with at this point imo.

Every other one is either full of vaushite radlibs or the most annoying twitter maoists possible.

Eh the Deprogram is servicable.

Yeah that's true, but I'm old enough that most of the people active there could be my kids lol

The TrueAnon crowd seem to be more my age, older millenial/younger genx, so I suppose that might be why I prefer it

Yeah that's why I kinda prefer the Deprogram being twenty and all. Generational gaps exist whether or not someone is a commie or not lmao

is trueanon expressly communist or is there like all sorts of anti-imperialists in it? The subreddit I mean, I know sometimes discords/subreddits/podcasts/youtube channels for the same thing have very different communities

The core group of users are all commies, but of course random strays will wander in from time to time
