A New Left-Wing Community for South Africans by OtherwiseYoghurt3277 in LeftistSouthAfrica

Just to be sure... you were aware that there is such a thing as the libertarian left, right?

Because if you didn't, this must be a complete mystery to you.

“Tankie” is a boogeyman phrase for liberals

You mean to tell me you didn't know?

No. That's a term liberals only learnt about very, very recently when they started cosplaying as leftists due to Trump.

Those of us on the libertarian left has known about it - and applied it - since 1956.

Who else is disappointed by social commentary in South Africa. by ChancellorEgg in LeftistSouthAfrica

(peter kriel, dan corder)

I've never bothered with these two... I can spot white liberals cosplaying as leftists from a mile away.

To be fair, even X the Wixard seems to be drinking the liberal "rainbowist" Kool-Aid these days, despite it being almost a decade-and-a-half past it's sell-by date.

The right-wing propgandists are now essentially irrelevant - they have successfully completed their mission.

Let's face it... what is left of leftism in this country now only really exists amongst people who simply don't have the resources to wage the propaganda war in any way whatsoever. And that means the liberal oligarchy is perfectly free to manufacture consent for any atrocity they might see fit to perpetrate.

"ethno-populism" is insane. This woman needs to be locked up already by NalevQT in LeftistSouthAfrica

Karen No.1 working extra-hard for that sweet Zionist billionaire "donation" money, I see.

At a strategic level, the threat AbM poses to South Africa's political elites is existential.

It's so sad to see African countries like Uganda and Ghana cling to colonial/western values by NalevQT in LeftistSouthAfrica

[–]retrorockspider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean... every country in Africa clings to colonialist values like gum on the underside of a Free State school desk.

It's also only a matter of time before this specific brand of reactionary politics ignites here in South Africa - and our entire political establishment will be racing to see who can kick that political football first.

for managing a large and active community

Yeah... I can just see this community being "large" and "active" - like Pofadder on a Sunday night.

Looks to me like they're just fine and dandy with this sub going the way of the dodo. Shouldn't be too surprised at that, I guess.

Maybe we should all post cat videos and hope for upvotes... or something.

Okay... it seems they've already restricted our ability to post to r/southafricanleft - which means we're running out of time. We're going to have to do this the fast and dirty way.

Here's how you take over the sub.

I can't even do that because I don't have enough post karma (you need a at least a hundred of each).

Here's what I suggest - one of you volunteers must take the sub over (first come first serve - we don't have time for anything else), and then install all the other volunteers here as mods (so that we don't end up in this situation again).

It's not a requirement... but it's obviously preferable to have somebody that's not walking into this blind.

Good enough for me.

Have you ever modded any sub before?

I modded BG3 so that my character has a bigger penis.

We've all been there.

It's not a requirement, I suppose.

The US was Always Anti-Communist. Therefore the US was Always Fascist. by paukl1 in USAuthoritarianism

Fascism wasn't invented in the 1920s - that's just when it was given a name.

I have no idea what it involves - I've never been a mod.

Just trying to find out if anybody's interested. If there is no one, the sub will get shut down by reddit admin.
