I’m guessing they did this because my comment didn’t have the correct positive vibes for them on their post when they’re the moderator.

It’s funny because 196 and almost all of its derivatives are rightfully anti-tankie because tankies promote centrism and conservatism directly harmful to trans and gay rights.

    I’m not certain this is what happened, but are you aware that “cultural Marxism” specifically is a right wing conspiracy and not synonymous with being a tankie. Because to me a “cultural Marxism” tag on a post like that is almost certainly ironic. I could see someone mistakenly thinking troll since your comment doesn’t make sense to someone familiar with the term.

      Nah I didn’t know, I can never follow all these trends where words have different meanings than the actual meanings of the words.

        It’s from r/196 on reddit. Short version is “cultural marxism” is the new term for “cultural bolshevism” (dogwhistle for jews in WWII era) and 196 stole it to use ironically for “this is what the left wants” style shitposts.

          This is another problem with all these ironic postings. They end up being repeated by people who don’t understand them, and then we get into these situations. I really dislike when people use fashy dogwhistles like “degenerate” and “cultural marxism” ironically.
