I took a quick look while it was up and it was just a user guide, similar to the lemmymigration subreddit

    Are you suggesting that there are no valid criticisms of communism, and then removing the agency of anyone who suggests otherwise? I’m genuinely curious as a socdem who likes a lot of liberal ideas.

      I’m suggesting this is cult-like behavior, yes. People (especially communists) criticize various Marxist thinkers as well as the positions of communist parties all the time. Of course I don’t think every criticism is invalid. As far as I can tell, they’re barely even doing any criticizing in the linked thread, they’re just going “tankie warning!!! do not hang out with these people!!!”.

        I’m happy to say that wasn’t the response I was expecting, but now I’m not sure what to do with my tankie pitchfork.
