I think this is an issue of tone being lost over text, and the fact that us commies genuinely have a lot of experience dealing with people who unironically think WaPo and WSJ and the Guardian and all their favorite YouTubers make a holy amalgamation of truth and reason.
I think I understand your point, although I don’t agree with it in these terms. assuming you’re talking about the edit, I still think that in a literature context you should be able to understand what you’re reading. failing to do so, it’s a grave matter. put in the fact that chances are that I’m older than the people writing in this thread - and just by this I’ve been on the far left point of view for a lot much more time - you understand why I get to cut to the thick of it and stand my point.
that said, “us commies” as in “we commies” or “U.S.A. commies”? imho, there’s a huge difference.
Many of us on lemmygrad are young, but some of us (not me, 26) are older, I’ve heard people reference being in 30s, 40s, there might be a token or two older.
I meant “we commies,” but seeing as we’re in the English-speaking web this also means a lot of “USA commies.”
