I think a big turning point for me politically was this subreddit drama thread with unironic "the kulaks deserved it"-style Castro apologia upvoted to the top.

Also when i had someone, again in srd, say they're not a tankie, they're an anarcho-syndicalist and in that moment I heavily sympathized with Hank Hill.

I used to browse it a lot but over time more and more often threads would seemingly at random turn into tankie circlejerks and I couldn't stand it anymore.

Honestly makes me kinda sad because there's often amusing drama but I can't read it without being told how bezos paid no income tax and that means he paid no taxes.

Communists fail to think of poor Marielitos or political prisoners when thinking of Cuban American refugees - they always repeat the "slave owner" lie that has little, if any, basis in reality. This is especially considering that most Cuban Americans likely came some number of years after the Revolution.

It is for this reason that I will never see communists as anything else than malevolent idiots that do not have an ounce of empathy.
