there is something to what recently both Trillbillies & Cushbomb have said about the disconnect between online left communities that traffic in Gritty and guillotine memes and what leftism means in a practical application to a world outside of online left communities

the cringe aspects are whatever because that's always going to be there and sometimes ideas need to be spread, but I think especially since Bernie decisively renounced being a movement figurehead in April this stuff is puerile at best and actively detrimental at worst

Marc Ribillet isn't an epic online leftist but this thread lays out some of these ideas in academic language https://twitter.com/PYeerk/status/1299366825512316928?s=19
