Holla Forums

So is this board a leftist board or what? I'm new here. Being an orthodox Marxist, I was interested in this board's rejection of identity politics. But it just seems to me that the board is frequented mainly by Holla Forums-tier teenage edgelords that use "anti-idpol" as an excuse for their own crassness.

I can't seem to find a thread that doesn't at some point involves a bunch of cretins defending the "white working class", mentioning the Jews as capitalist exploiters, attacking homosexuality as bourgeois decadence, describing black people as worthless lumpens, calling for immigrants to be shot at the border because they accept lower wages — all in all, spiteful identity-obsessed populist rhetoric cloaked in vulgar Marxist terminology that sounds like a CIA agent trying to fit in the CPUSA.

Looks like you spend in fact more time whining about SJWs like you garden-variety alt-right mongoloid and derailing threads that don't than you do discussing actual socialist politics tbh.

But I'd be glad if you could prove me wrong.

We have those too yes, but thats just you having a sampling bias.

Look harder, faggot. Theres tons of em. And you need to realise that there is no gatekeeping to the eventual lost polyp or edgelord will talk about his stupid shit.


It is and stays an image board, so there is always going to be an element of "tfw no gf" and "fuck these people".

There's threads about theory all the time. They're not always great, but they're better than the equivalent on reddit or elsewhere.

nah, he's kind of right, there's too much of them. mods should have ended all shit tier Holla Forumsyps larping as leftists a long time ago.

It's gone to shit recently, thus the numbers dropping by several hundred posters. You can report people doing the things you listed and supposedly the mods ban them. I'm pretty close to being completely done with the place myself, it's a complete tip of autistic former Holla Forumsyps asserting their point over and over and over and over and dropping out the thread for a few posts when some sort of theory for their rambling shitposting is requested, only to drop back in as soon as one of our resident spergs responds to their shitty bait in earnest.

Theres a lot of them yes, maybe a little bit of culling is in order. But the last time we did "a little culling" BO banned anyone who said that assad isnt cool either.

That's kind of accurate.

We tolerate a lot of bullshit here.

We have more good people, probably, but a lot of fuckers who are just Holla Forums trolls. Part of that is just a consequence of being on Holla Forums. We're pretty much one of very few boards on this site where people are actually willing to openly disagree and engage with with brash Holla Forumstards, after right-wing newfags flocked here and halfchan because Breitbart or somebody told them about it. Current Holla Forums owner actually heard about the site from his son, who saw it on TV.

this is an example of Holla Forums bait

i think it was worse before, though the emphasis is still much deserved
example a

Tbh Nazbol are actually hilarious. It's the actual Holla Forumstards who are the problem.

ok
Think what you want fam. I see those people staying around as a lesser evil compared to what r/soc and the like have become through excessive modding and ideological purity tests

They're getting a bit much tbh. It's getting to the stage over half the posts are by them. They need to be shot out of a cannon into the sun preferably, but more realistically they need to be banned for shitposting constantly.

don't break your neck falling off your high horse

a lot of jews are capitalists, they need to stop that
I haven't really picked up an anti gay vibe from the board.
nothing wrong with lumpens
I don't think I've ever seen that.
are you speaking from experience?

how do you justify being this stupid in real life

Yes I'm sure if you were doing the modding it would be perfect and only hit pol etc but in the real world we have to rely on other people to hold the power, you can see even now the stupid anti imperialism bullshit on this board, even against the will of the entire community the mods do that, imagine how much worse it could be if we accepted the kind of thought control that Reddit does. Would it be bad if there were less polyps, probably not, but every piece of power the mods get is a risk.

A lot of whites are capitalists, too. Yet nobody here ever pretends there's a specific problem with those white people because so many of them are capitalists. Pretending Jews are a somewhat unique type of exploiter is the core of economic antisemitism.

Tbh Jews are more of a "Slavs" kind of "race" than a "blacks" kind of race.

We all know it's the bloody Irish, though.

Of course

Can you take the logical leap in rejecting the retarded american race system instead of making more and more "races".

I mean, we're a leftist board in a chan. We have a lot, and I mean a lot, of false-flagging morons here, and right-wingers trying to sell some of their worldview as the logical conclusion to some of concerns.

And yes, we definitely care for the "white working class", not for racial but for political reasons. So lurk more and stop freaking out so easily.

no one pretends there is a problem with people in the west and their culture? Pretty sure your wrong about that.
I'm not suggesting there is a genetic trait in Jews that make them capitalists, but clearly there are a number of issues with Jewish culture, including tribalism and economic exploitation.

Well we are the most hated board on Holla Forums.
In my country the saying goes "Lots of enemies means lots of honour." But in our case it also means lots of attention and lots of (r)aids.
Be the chemo and don't reply to bait.

This. Edgy faggots tend to be attracted to imageboards so they can troll people for lulz or whatever

...

you mean good old nepotism?

Whoops forgot my flag

yes, and so is stealing.
It exists in other cultures to of course, but jews are slightly worse.

no, nepotism mostly referrers to family, I'm talking about the idea of jews as tribes and chosen people. It's worse among the orthodox jews, but prevalent elsewhere to.

I'm not a nazi. I don't mind jews, but i'm not going to make any apologies for the shitty parts of their culture either.

Holla Forums stop

lurk more


Hi Angela Negal

This other than the "don't ban the Holla Forums shitter" vibes.

not Holla Forums, but fine, I'll stop. Talking about jewish culture on 8.ch is bound for failure anyways.

The entire second paragraph is just pure lies. Do you even realize how many threads have been derailed due to some nativist twat saying something about how "We need to limit immigrants to prevent them from hurting the native working class." And we all have to drop everything and argue with the class collaborationist in our midst.

The third line is more lies. Just look at the Soviet Cybernetics thread, or the Empirical Marxism thread, or the /leftydesign/ thread. I know they're all defunct now, but those were maybe the three best threads on the board in which we discussed complex socialist literature and art and concepts. They were all popular. If the user base reflected your narrative, these threads would not only have never existed, they would have remained obscure with maybe 1 or 2 replies before 404ing. Instead, they did the opposite.

You are nothing but a condescending idiot. There is nothing worse than that. Go back to wherever you came from and go misinterpret someone else because you and your falsehoods are not welcome here.

Jewish porkies, liberals, nationalists and religious fundamentalists are already going to the gulag. Which puts Holla Forums above Holla Forums in the amount of jews that we condemn. There is no need to make it weird.

It is. When are you being an incessant shitposter?
When you post 19th century pseudoscience? When you think socialism is "when the government does stuff"? When you still think identitarian struggles are important to abolishing capitalism?
You do know that the filter option exists right?

Lurk moar faggot

Angela's a good girl who dindu nothin, I've talked with her on Twitter

It's another episode of scumbag feminists from plebbit show up and demand the board is turned into a safe space for idpol pushing.

...

Cruel dubs confirmed

what did he say that was Holla Forums.
please return to whatever safe space you came from.

Implying that "economic exploitation" and "stealing" are traits of "Jewish culture". If you can't tell that's plain Jew-baiting trash, then OP is right.

Short answer, whatever kind of half decent lefty board you're looking for. We're as good as it gets

not stealing per se but banking and finance itself has definitely been a part of their culture since the greater part of the middle ages.
bankers also tend to be criminals who leach off of workers exploitation and are extremely nepotistic, who knew?

Chomsky's words were a warning, not an instruction manual.

+push

I know that there have already been a lot of posts in this thread and you have probably already left, but I am going to say something that I think you(And everyone else with similar concerns to you) need to hear.
This is an Imageboard. It has a heavy base of its culture in Crassness, Juvenile behavior, and edginess. All of those things (and the freedoms that comes with them) are part of the charm.
If you do not like that or cannot handle that, than literally every other leftist forum on the internet would be more than happy to have you.

Kindly fuck off and stop trying to destroy the only Leftist imageboard on the internet.

Are you even a materialist? This is nonsense. The Knights Templar pioneered modern banking and the House of Medici was the wealthiest family of 15th-century Europe. Are "economic exploitation" and "stealing" not traits of "Catholic culture" too, then?

wew

Did you miss that the pecuniary nature of the western church was a major factor in the causes of the reformation?

It was, but no one here pretends that "there's a problem with Catholics" specifically.

This is anti-antisemitism.

I mean anti-semitism
