    That’s because much of this website (Hexbear) hails from Reddit.

    On Twitter and, I guess, Instagram, it’s much more positive and I’m pretty much a regular on “CPUSA twitter” or whatever we call ourselves.

    Unfortunately, I’m the only CPUSA member I know here and so I’m the only one giving “the other side of the story,” so to speak.

    It’s kinda lonely, ngl

      Hey i justed wanted to let you know that even though I’m not part of CPUSA and through years of lurking I’ve also noticed you are one of the few, if not the one, who gives the “other side of the story”, wrt them, I still always appreciate and enjoy your comments and I am sorry if you feel lonely or isolated from others here. I’m sure I’m not the only one, either, who appreciates your presence here. Party differences aside. Maybe I’m being too sappy, just wanted to send good vibes to you

        Too white, imho.

        Also, it’s common for certain subcultures to be bisected or divided depending on the community.

        After chapo was destroyed and /r/communisim was taken over by Maoists, lots of people moved to Twitter and that’s where lots of CPUSA members set up their social media accounts; communist Reddit hasnt’ changed much compared to communist Insta and communist Twitter.
