Long story short but I finally caved and made a TikTok account.
I’m looking for commie and anarchist content creators. Theory bro stuff too.
Oh and any neurodivrgent creators is also a plus. Autism, ADHD, OCD, depression, anxiety, etc. related content would be great.
Any creators you think are just all around chill are also welcome.
TIA.
E: For some reason I wasn’t able to follow anyone but logged out and back in yesterday and was able to follow 14 more people before it shit the bed again. Is this a common thing?
You must log in or register to comment.
Madeline Pendleton and Seize The Means Shirts are both pretty good.
Sweet thanks.
Ah, just remembered (because one of his videos came up) Dante Muñoz is pretty good too.
Dante is alright. Went full Kamala stan and was probably taking them DNC bucks to shill tho.
Comrade ash on TT found him liking Kamala posts on… Insta (I think? I have never used that site in my life) and he made some half-arsed excuse about it.
I meanI followed Kamala accounts to get a measure of things and to understand the dem strategy and messaging, both to get a view of US politics and as research for agitation and education; only a fool chooses not to study their enemies. But I wasn’t in there liking all of their posts the way Dante was.
Dante has some good takes but I would view their messages with skepticism especially after what came to light after the election season.
Oh wow, I hadn’t been aware of that. I mostly see him shutting down baseless criticisms of AES (got reminded of him by a “yeah, what kind of business was it” video he made of some gusanos crying about how Ana de Armas was dating the step-son of the “dictator” of the country that “stole their businesses.”)
I’ll watch out though, lotta grifters out there.
I think it’s not letting me follow any more today because it thinks I’m a bot or something so I’m gonna save this comment and NinjaGinga’s and try again later.
Li Jing Jing is a good follow to keep up with China’s accomplishments.
Followed. One of the things I really like about the Hexbear/lemmygrad space is news from China that isn’t “China bad” all the time.
when i had tiktok, “actually existing socialist” and “socialism with a human face” were good. informational stuff about AES
Sweet, followed.
My vibes-based list: Molombo; Wizard Bisan; AmazonTeamsters; aotearoaliberationleague; TradesUnionCongress; BDS.movement; Afeni; The Forest Jar (not Marxist per se, I just like the vids); GWJones; Republican Socialist (Irish); IfNotNow Movement; ComradeFrida; whakaatamaori; Empire Files; Yellow Parenti; Commie Trucker; Labor on the Line; therednationpodcast; theredpine; tikkunolamorbust; sinnfein; pslnational; marxistmiguel; commietrashh; theladyizdihar (my personal fav); offthemarx; jrehwald15; Non-exhaustive list, some are just labor news, lib coms, an coms, and other tendencies
Isn’t Midwestern Marx that guy who founded the american communist party backed by feds, or am I thinking of someone else?
You are correct, he’s gone full hinkledink
Indeed they are, so I’m gonna remove that one.
Gonna keep this comment in my inbox until I’m home and will add them. Thanks for all the suggies!
I went through and followed all you suggested but they never registered and now TikTok won’t let me add anyone…
Everything
and breakthrough newsIs “Everything PSL” an account or are you saying just any PSL affiliated accounts? If so send them my way lol.
The latter. PSL National is the main one. Then I’d follow any in your general part of the country - just search for PSL[city] and it’ll be there.
Cool thankies!
Though it just occurred to me most local branches probably won’t have their own tiktoks the way they do Instagrams.
There aren’t any for Texas that I could find but the national one should be fine. I might check to see if Claudia or Karina have accounts later when I can follow more.
The voros twins, one of them is on the left, the other is on the right, I don’t remember if they switch around
Khalid, his account rn is “hghspdalt” i say rn because he gets banned very often for rustling up white peoples feathers
Chris kunzler
Groovy, thanks!

saint.stereo.1Some of these users aren’t explicitly Marxist or ML but they have good anticapitalist/anticolonial takes. Don’t take this as an endorsement of them in particular but they make for a good feed. (Ash and Saint both took the anarchist to ML pipeline like myself which is an interesting thing to note.)
sienna.stims has good autism content, there are others but I forget.
lifeactuator
olivialutfallah For ADHD.Idk I haven’t really been on TT recently and I know faces but I don’t really know that many names off the top of my head.
Basically what you want to do on TT is to like and engage with creators that you really appreciate. Scroll immediately on trash content or even long-press and click that you aren’t interested in this content for bad stuff.
It takes a little bit of training the algorithm but you’ll fall into a few niches really quickly. Those US senators who show TT and it’s all teenage girls dancing scantily clad? Yeah, that’s a self-report; those fuckers are spending their time watching and interacting with that content. My feed is all leftist infighting, dunking on reactionaries, cute animals, neurodivergent content, and more unhinged content like the guy who dances to Rasputin in ridiculous heels in a star costume and shit like this.
Also use the block function. ACP patsocs? Immediate block. Fuck those clowns.
Just checked and I’m still unable to follow people. Added this all to a .txt file with the rest that has been suggested. I might already have my feed under control actually, but it was fucking rough the first 2 days.
