Comment on Is it me or is everyone in hexbear insane?

These pathetic foxes are pissed they’ve been neutralized by defederation. They’re mad that the contagion has been contained. That real lefties, even communists don’t take them seriously.
These guys aren’t fooling anyone. The online left doesn’t need their rotten discourse, and they don’t belong there.
It’s just 4chan cosplaying communism. Truly despicable.

Hexbear has been around for 4 years, unfederated. It wasn’t until 10 months ago that they started slowly federating. At least try to be honest.
Who determines what a “real lefty,” or a “real Communist,” if not Communists who regularly read theory, talk about it, and post memes that require understanding theory to even get?
Do you genuinely believe people would put in that much effort to meme amongst themselves something they don’t agree with?

Oh, they do agree with the imagery. Not so much with the actual left-wing values. Which is why I used the word “cosplay”.
Leftism isn’t just aesthetics, folks. It’s not enough to just hate american imperialism.

On what bounds do you say that? If they read Leftist theory, advocate for Leftism, and attack Imperialism and Capitalism, then they are Leftists.

No, because substituting one imperialism with another one you like more means you never understood any leftist theory to begin with.
