  • it originated as a shit posting site after reddit banned the chapotraphouse subreddit, but it has become its own thing over the past few years. Primarily it’s a left unity space - communists, anarchists, etc all welcome with no tolerance for sectarianism. Still a lot of shitposting, but also in depth discussions about news and books. We’ve developed a pretty strong site culture as well with an emphasis on discussion (we don’t have downvotes), and probably the strongest anti-bigotry rules you’ll find anywhere. It is 100% not full of trolls or fascists. I think a lot of liberals who have never heard from communists in any meaningful numbers are just very confused on their first encounter with us


  • The thing is though, most people do distinguish them quite heavily. The hammer and sickle is still frequently used as an international symbol of worker’s liberation while the swastika, black sun, etc are firmly attached to one of the greatest atrocities in human history. To compare them as equals, even without their direct relation in history, is extremely strange and something that only fascists would typically do in an effort to downplay the holocaust
