The comments are even better

We’ve got

Casual transphobia

Outright revisionism and denial

and Zionist cringe

Ngl I regret getting my reddit account banned because this would have been prime material for both r/ShitLiberalsSay and r/shitfascistssay

    The West is bad but that doesn’t mean everyone else is good

    The CIA doesn’t give a fuck if you hate America, as long as you hate every alternative more. They know that whitewashing the US in the eyes of Americans is a fool’s errand, because it contradicts their lived experiences. So they rely on vilifying their foreign enemies, which Americans never visit. Then smug left-liberals and right-liberals will laugh at you when you push back against those ridiculous portrayals even a little, while fancying themselves immune to propaganda in the process, because they know “the US is bad” too (as if that were subversive).

      I keep looking deeper and holy shit it keeps getting better

      Sometimes they have better geopolitical takes than 90% of mainstream reddit subs, interspersed with takes like these

      They’re incredibly dogmatic with their religiosity which leads to predictable reactionary politics, no different from how reddit atheists are dogmatic in their anti-theism and chauvinism.
