Just got swept off of Reddit completely, only a matter of time of course. What do you guys use to keep up with current events? Lefty subreddits (if you can call any subreddit that much “left” anymore with the tankie crackdowns) were my biggest source of current events and comrade’s perspectives on such.

So what do you comrades use? Any good newsletters? Other social media platforms?

    r/trueanon is aight though the opinions there are sometimes too cis straight hipster white male burnout in his 30s for me and it’s incredibly doomer

    r/sino is aight though not really that ML

    r/shitliberalssay is meh since there’s a lot of fuck both sides sentiment for Ukraine war and calling Russia imperialist

      r/ShitLiberalsSay was actually the instigator, got banned for criticizing anarchism and got caught for the sub ban evading Shit almost immediately as I used two different accounts

      i wouldn’t bother with r/sls anymore honestly, the mods there are nuts

      use r/gzd for as long as it still lasts, and otherwise r/sino, r/newswithjingjing, and r/informedtankie

      also r/liberationnews seems to be a decent source of leftist US news, and of course for their respective countries r/russia and r/palestine
