I’m leaving this forum, and I’m never, ever, ever coming back. Don’t worry, I’m not going to stop being a leftist; I just think I get more value out of reading theory, engaging in real-world praxis, and discussing things with my activist friends than on this forum.

So, why am I making such a big deal about it? Because I want to burn this bridge by making it utterly humiliating for me if I ever returned. I want you to remember my username and make fun of me mercilessly if I ever post here again.

Also, you should know that I have another account called /u/JohnnyMcFakename. If that account posts here, make fun of that one too. (I’ll see if I can make a comment on this post under that account so you know it’s me.)

If you REALLY want to go the extra mile, you could go through my posts and analyze my way of posting (writing style, time of day) and be suspicious that any new accounts might be me trying to come back.

So long, libs.

EDIT: I notice I’m getting downvotes, as though you’re sad to see me go. I’m hoping to get upvotes so that a lot of people see this post, this making it maximally humiliating for me if I ever return.
