Wasn’t it confirmed some time ago r/socialism was run by feds or something?
Wasn’t it the ACP or something like that?
It was ACP people, yeah. But it might have been either AskSocialists or Socialism101 or something.
Edit: No, this person who’s defending them is a mod of:
r/socialism
r/Socialism_101
r/TheInternationale

Looks less like defense and more like being a stickler about definitions, and I don’t disagree with what they said. The actual fascism of America is inside the center, the blob, the mainstream parties both. The ACP is likely a Russian psy-op tbh, and thoroughly a joke without any consistent principles, but I wouldn’t call them fascists so much as extremely confused and incoherent - reflecting the confused and incoherent nature of the modern Russian state that funds it and provides its ideological basis. They are tiny and extremely irrelevant, and anybody who spends all their time clutching pearls about them while encouraging entryism into the Democrats or other electoralist strategies does not have a good gauge on actual threat levels. The DSA-types who encourage DNC entryism but cry about Nazbols all day are far more compatible with American fascism than ACP weirdos who post anti-imperialist content between their weird reactionary screeds.
I might be getting the subs confused but wasn’t it some weird group from the Balkans or eastern Europe that claims to be Marxist but only talks about the national question and the Jewish question?
edit: no (probably) different people. This was easier when subs didn’t hide who the mods are. Fun fact the head mod of r/socialism also moderates r/politics now.
Honestly this post and the r/socialism situation doesn’t seem so bad. I was thinking about EuropeanSocialists and some other subs.
All redit is run by feds and bots.
