I keep thinking of bad things and then say “wow I bet Hexbear would like this thing” and then I smugly smile while shit leaks out of my pants. Both ends.

      I don’t believe communism = bad. I like the idea of Communism (or atleast what Marx says). Saying “Opinion discarded” just means you don’t want to have a discussion and you have nothing to say. If you block every opinion you will never learn anything new and no one will want to listen to you. Disgarding people is not how you make people agree with you. I don’t how this movement you have here is ever going to succeed if you can’t convince others to join you.

        this movement you have here

        my dude, this is an internet forum. despite what some may think, this site is not in fact the front lines of the movement that will bring about communism.

        so I don’t think anyone gives two shits about convincing you of anything. best I can dream of is getting you to learn the definitions of words like “prole”.

          The lecturing on how we need to be better to achieve our supposed aims by making sure we don’t hurt others’ feelings is so common I don’t know why. It has the same energy as when men complain to women or feminists telling them ‘if you were a bit nicer, maybe I wouldn’t be misogynistic’.

          I’m having a hard time understanding why people engage with us in that way. Do they think they are helping? Is it to put themself on some sort of moral high ground or to indicate the extent of how polite society works?

          I don’t engage negatively, but I can hardly blame comrades who do especially after one can see their patience wearing thin after several exchanges with similar rhetoric in sequence.
