One of my lib friends has been radicalized by this stupid stock shit and me gently nudging him along which is awesome but the fact that fucking admins on this site are STILL encouraging people to waste their money on this performative garbage is telling.

Making a fucking stocks gambling comm when users (including myself) have been requesting a personal finance comm for months is a slap in the face.

It’s deeply disappointing that “we can radicalize them!” has been used as an excuse to encourage poor people to throw away what little money they have to pointlessly demonstrate something that’s already been clearly demonstrated. And even more concerning is the encouragement of doing it for the chance of getting more money (which is extremely unlikely at this point).

I guess I should’ve seen it coming tbh, beatnik has admitted to being a PMC ghoul. Extremely cringe.

HAHAHAHAHA and just a couple weeks ago I got dogpiled when I criticized an unironic AOC 2024 comment. Feeling smug as fuck right now :elmofire:

It’s pointless performative self flagellation that is basically just insecure whites looking at poc and saying “See! I’m one of the good ones!”

Remember when MSNBC had a “body language expert” on to basically say that Bernie was a conniving jew that was up to something sinister

This is only tangentially related but it’s extremely troubling to me that every woman I know has either been a victim of sexual violence or has at least had multiple close calls. It’s so fucking common and it’s barely ever acknowledged, let alone anything done about it.

The biggest :bruh: moment of the Sino-Soviet split was when China backed the US against Vietnam because they were big mad at the USSR.

I remember back when the coup in Bolivia happened, there was a highly upvoted post on the front page of completeanarchy that was celebrating the coup. It was posted by one of the mods, I think. Also one of the mods (or former mods, idk of they’re still a mod) is a pedophile and literally the top mod of neoliberal lmao.

I had been somewhat disillusioned with the sub for a while at that point. Most of the posts were just pointless sectarian shit with a lot of galaxy brained takes like calling for unity with libertarian capitalists against state socialists :wut:

But seeing them celebrate the Bolivia coup was a big bale of straw that disintegrated the already dead camel’s back.
