Just saw a post that’s been hijacked by anti-China colonials. https://www.reddit.com/r/LateStageCapitalism/comments/xe7r8n/mentally_colonized_citizen_of_china_has_mental/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share
It used to. It’s listed in the sidebar (at least it was last time I checked - I quit that site a few months ago).
It should be noted that it got overrun by radlibs and plenty of well-intentioned-but-politically illiterate Western ‘socialists’.
Yeah most of the left leaning subs have been overrun by lib brainrot, and the fact that we’re seeing more of it on lemmy is even more concerning lol
If libs overrun Lemmygrad I may just get off the internet for good.
we’ll return to book circles like in the Lenin times (
They can’t. Verification is required to create an account and people on lemmy.ml can be cut off from lemmygrad by simply editing a file on the server.
🥲
I saw it happening. It was very strange. One day, I started seeing electorialists pop up, and then a couple weeks later, there were full-on libs. They were downvoted heavily, but then that just stopped happening and now it’s basically normal for there to be multiple libs and anarchists in every post of the previously communist subreddits.
I personally believe it was very intentional and done by some surveillance agency somewhere, because massive subreddits don’t just fundamentally change over the span of a couple weeks.
I’ve seen this happen in other reddit alternatives before. Usually fascists and/or feds will organize and set up themselves the communities for the communists with them as moderators. They let these communities fill up with actual communists, and then they call on their buddies to come in and brigade, while they do nothing about it or even silence the communists. The community is then taken over by them, the communists become demoralized and the platform loses the majority of its users.
I think it’s a scheme to both keep Reddit alive and to prevent communists from having their own place to organize. Sometimes they even brag about it as having “trollled” the communists.
Can’t have shit on a fed-controlled platform. I wonder how much longer will r/WorkersStrikeBack last, since it’s also modded by communists.
I think that site is beyond redemption at this point. I don’t see many advantages to participating in there in any form.
That’s good to know. Shame that it’s become like that.
That was like years ago, when i got on reddit in 2019 it was already like that, most content on that sub was always muricans being “healthcare pls” and it was the lowest common denominator with more basedness rarily achieved.
Now it’s probably even worse since it’s one of the last remaining big subs percieved as “commie” which most likely brings more brigades there.
This person was not being sarcastic or ironic.
I think I hate these types of western Vaushite piss-reeking leftists more than MAGA chuds. MAGA chuds often feel like uninformed idiots, these “leftists” feel like feds all the time.
I would be surprised if more than 50%ofthem weren’t feds at this point

Pretty interesting thread actually. You can see how much more easily the liberal redditors (assuming it’s not all just bots - which it may very well be) swallow anti-china propaganda as opposed to anti-african propaganda. What I mean is the comments who related it to former colonial sentiment in africa clearly got through to the liberals better than the ones directly talking about China. The propaganda/talking points and racism works. It really does come in waves.
That being said - that kind of thread gets overrun by feds and bots and shills of all stripes. And just neckbeards brigading.
