Is it me or is this new digital edgelord leftism primarily concerned with "gotcha" ad hominem attacks rather than like actual policy, practice, economics, or material conditions?
Like X was in the same picture as Y, who is an imperialist, so X is an imperialist? So lazy.

And its not just tankies either. It'll be dumb spurious insults like "X is a cop". Like what does that even mean? Can you use your words? Do you mean they used coercive force? Do you mean they are a prosecutor (not a cop)? Like distinctions kinda matter you know?
There are so many norms that have been accepted and validated which end up entirely destroying information spaces and breaking down reality. People supported even when they lie repeatedly without consequence. It's no wonder that there is so much alt-fascist entryism going on.
And if you are entering a space that you don't really know what the fuck you are talking about, shouldn't you like listen to those who are most directly affected and the stories of those most intersectionally vulnerable? Isn't that leftist praxis that everyone learns?
Like if you are vehemently opposed to those principles, I suspect that your politics aren't really leftist, your politics are probably just dogshit.
