This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

Prob to late to say this but there is absolutely nothing to gain from voicing your political views online with your real name. You should hold a meeting with your vocal group of friends and have them stop, get strapped, improve shooting, etc... At this point, self-censorship is a skill that we must start developing and using, nazis have successfully used self-censorship to grow their movement, why can't we?

I agree, I have the occasional post or so in real social media but I keep that very separate from any of my social media on here or elsewhere. For me, everything is federated in a way with different passwords/emails, etc. Like, I might seem like a radlib or have the occasional commie tendency on real media but on here is where I have my more "succinct opinions" if you will.

Quite a few of my real life friends were celebrating Kirk's death, it isn't just like 5 or 6 of us; a bunch of my old acquaintances and high-school folk who I barely talked to came out of the woodwork to laugh at it with me or say they've received lash-back for laughing at it themselves.

get strapped, improve shooting

I'm not ever going to talk about any of this online, especially when I've talked about growing marijuana on this profile before. Self-censorship is indeed good when it comes to these things; but at the same time It's also good to have a general "no trespassing" sign on your fief, get what I mean?

At this point, self-censorship is a skill that we must start developing and using, nazis have successfully used self-censorship to grow their movement, why can’t we?

Honestly, as time goes on, the only reason I keep certain media is because the people I talk to aren't exactly...tech-literate. Family too. I've considered just shuttering the profile and keep it completely private, should probably do that.

I can't say I don't enjoy fucking with chuds as I've never actually experienced a lash-back from it. Paper tigers and all that, but there's a reason I know how to defend myself beyond "guns" which of course doesn't mean much when one is on the table.

I think that's the reality of living in America these days and is going to. You can just get shot, stabbed or blown up over your favorite niche tendency having a "war" against each other instead of actualizing any class consciousness; not that we don't try to for sure. It's funny, I think I've had quite a bit of success having a somewhat of an online presence to persuade some of my old high-school friends, acquaintances, work-mates to appeal to the ideals we have and it's worked quite well!

But yeah...on the flip-coin you get this. What do you think? Always appreciate hearing from you.
