It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow chapos. Wreckers/CHUDs are allowed. If they aren't banned yet then report them, don't post them.

The Communist Manifesto? Is that a video game?

Leon Trotsky? What's his Twitter handle?

Antonio Gramsci? Did he invent Instagram?

Jokes aside, we might have better success with Parenti or asking them to watch Klein's "Shock Doctrine" for a quick primer

Agreed, maybe add in David Graeber's 'Bullshit Jobs' and 'Debt: The First 5,000 Years' as a starting point towards leftist ideas. It might be a good idea to create a 'leftist 101' reading list to ease them into it. Theory is great, but it tends to scare newcomers.
