    MAGA Communists exist nearly entirely online, yet the ACP manages to infiltrate leftist subreddits and get invited to international events. We need to be wary and vigilant against them and all PatSocs.

    Do people not known about the ACP (American “Communist” Party) branching off from the CPUSA and pushing for “patriotic socialism”? Do people agree with the ACP? Or is this getting downvotes because people don’t care about leftist spaces?

      It’s getting downvotes because it’s not a meme. Even if it’s true, it’s just limp propaganda.

          Memes can be propaganda, yes, but they need to be something more, otherwise they won’t reach people.

          You can make an image macro of a cat with the text “cucumber bad”, but it probably won’t be very popular. Even then, there’s a history of memes about cats reacting to cucumbers that gives that idea more traction than “Nazis did a nazi”.

          Someone asked “why the downvotes”. I explained “bad meme”.

            Go report the Wikipedia page for Kilroy Was Here for not being complex enough to be culturally significant (despite its actual cultural significance), I guess.
