Personally I think not having karma limits is nice currently! I understand why they were used but grinding karma as a lurker on reddit was frustrating.

    What is the connection between communism and the transgender movement? Is it as simple as there being significant overlap as marginalized groups fighting against the status quo? The interviews for the Marxist instances pointedly asked how I felt about LGBTQ, and now you’re intimating that discussing Trans athletes is indicative of someone being a liberal as opposed to a leftist. I don’t see how someone’s opinion about Trans athletes has anything to do with their opinion about the optimal socioeconomic structure of society.

      Trans athlete discourse is an obvious and very tired talking point that is a favorite among transphobes and conservatives. Also I did not mention communism or libs and I’m not interested in engaging in any kind of political discourse without an intersectional lens.

      Maybe the Marxist communities trying to filter people out based upon their views on queer and trans people aren’t meant for you.

        Ok. I’m very sympathetic to trans people and it’s good to hear that you’ve found allies in socialist groups. It doesn’t always show because I tend to rant about big concepts and skip right past the simple things. But I don’t hate you and I appreciate your answer to my question.
