This is the way you troll right-wingers.
I would love to as those comments
Pro level shitpost.
This has to be a troll.
95% sure is trolling. Yet, I’m also 100% sure a lot of those buffoons will not notice.
Not many smart people left on the sub. Just yes-men.
They’ve done so many purges in /r/conservative that it’s basically communism
I really don’t think there were many smart conservative redditors to begin with.
It was:
I did the math
Followed by a logical conclusion that sold this as trolling to me
My thoughts as well, surely there’s no way.
But… America.
It’s true, but I feel like the dumb ones wouldn’t have bothered to read Animal Farm.
Maybe Atlas Shrugged
It’s a pretty common assigned reading in schools these days
In American schools? Neither myself or anyone I know has ever been asked to read anything from Orwell.
My experience in middle and high school (yes in America) we had a lot of Orwell and Vonegett as assigned readings built into the curriculum, and the books were sufficiently worn and yellowed, the projector transparencies sufficiently photocopier burned and the tapes sufficiently scratchy and worn to indicate these books had been part of the curriculum for at least a decade or more before I went through it.
It was going great until “I’ve come to the conclusion…” Gave the whole game away.
Most likely, since he uses communism, socialism, and Marxism interchangeably
Post up for 2 minutes, no votes shown. Definitely a troll post and probably screencapped by whoever made it before it was removed.
This has to be a troll but I’ll be damned if r/conservative isn’t dumb enough to bite
We should troll them like this a LOT more.
The problem is that their ability to ignore obvious contradictions is so immense they sometimes embrace it unironically.
Accusing people of being communist is just fun as well. It is not all that inaccurate with our political leaders either.
The president is taking stock in companies and taking payoffs from companies. Because he’s a fucking communist.
It is absolutely inaccurate to call the capitalist fascist Trump a communist.
Duh. That’s the whole point.
are you autistic?
Shit I’m autistic and even I got the social nuance of the post.
I think old mate might just be plain old fashioned Forest Gump level stupid.
Notice we’re in a comment thread and I was not replying to the original post.
at least they got their heart in the right place :')
Can you read?
It is not all that inaccurate with our political leaders either.

No dude he’s a fuckin commie
He would hate being called communist though.
Of course. I’m just trying to shut down this notion that it’s “not inaccurate” to call him a communist because of the Intel thing. By all means, do a little trolling, but don’t drink your own kool-aid.
“Russia will take the US without firing a single shot”
The post is satire/trolling.
I was interested, so I found the original post, and the mods there removed all the comments, so you can’t see the people falling for it.

Boy, conservatives sure love their free speech.
They really do. Some speech is more free than others.
This is suspiciously close to the famous “some are more equal than others” from my favorite book, <removed by moderator>.
I got banned from there years ago for asking a question in a comment.
They are the most banned happy I have heard of. They know how susceptible the audience is to manipulation so they won’t abide any counter manipulation.
well that’s your first mistake. Only communists question stuff.
As we speak people are losing their jobs because they said some shit about Kirk boy.
Hell, I’ve seen people losing jobs and shit purely from posting direct quotes from Charlie Kirk, nothing more
People who respond in an extrajudicial manner to being fired like that are well within their rights.
Yeah the comments were also trolls https://www.reveddit.com/v/Conservative/comments/iig9uh/is_my_boss_a_communist/

Unfortunately it looks like the commies on Reddit are a bit smarter than your average conservative.
I think this post needs to go on truth social or some Chan type thing.
I just realised I don’t know where I would find a den of white supremacists… And I guess thats a good thing. I want to say the words telegram but I’m not sure? Huh. Til
Does voat still exist? Or twitter
Once upon a time this worked, not for new Reddit threads, sadly.
Gonna start calling landlords “socialists”, see what happens
Peak satire 👨🍳👌
I wish I could see how many of those mouthbreathers actually took this bait.
I did and I’m not even conservative, just autistic
I’m ADHD but not autistic and had me too until
Unify our power and demonstrate that we understand the full value of our labor
This guy/gal’s got the right idea. Turns out conservatives agree with a lot of leftist ideas when you don’t use their Boogeyman trigger words.
I’ve been saying that for decades but a lot of marxists are more into the aesthetics of marxism than the actual goals.
marxists are more into the aesthetics of marxism
Sort of a selection bias.
“The only Marxists I ever see are the ones advertising themselves” implies you might not be looking very hard
Funny how you quoted them twice yet neither one is actually a quote
More into Groucho than Karl?
Then again, Groucho did say something like ‘I would never want to join a club that would admit me as a member.’, so perhaps not.
I mean, IIRC Karl claimed to not be a marxist. Guess it runs in the family.
After the programme was agreed, however, a clash arose between Marx and his French supporters arose over the purpose of the minimum section. Whereas Marx saw this as a practical means of agitation around demands that were achievable within the framework of capitalism, Guesde took a very different view: “Discounting the possibility of obtaining these reforms from the bourgeoisie, Guesde regarded them not as a practical programme of struggle, but simply … as bait with which to lure the workers from Radicalism.” The rejection of these reforms would, Guesde believed, “free the proletariat of its last reformist illusions and convince it of the impossibility of avoiding a workers ’89.” Accusing Guesde and Lafargue of “revolutionary phrase-mongering” and of denying the value of reformist struggles, Marx made his famous remark that, if their politics represented Marxism, “ce qu’il y a de certain c’est que moi, je ne suis pas Marxiste” (“what is certain is that I myself am not a Marxist”).
Kind of crazy how so much is still to do really, like the last point
Abolition of all indirect taxes and transformation of all direct taxes into a progressive tax on incomes over 3,000 francs. Suppression of all inheritance on a collateral line [8] and of all direct inheritance over 20,000 francs.
I wonder how much that is in today’s money
They accuse you of their bogeyman trigger words whether or not you advertise it or are even actually doing the bogeyman thing in the first place. I fail to see how this would address that. The words need to be rehabilitated, not avoided, so they lose the knee jerk reaction that the right wing counts on.
I’d be a Marxist if only I had the money they always seem to have laying around.

Dude definitely never understood Animal Farm.And I missed the satire in this. OP knew what he was doing.
The difference between communism and capitalism is who gets the money without working.
would have been better to not use the word “unify”. too transparent.
Even ‘labor’ is a bit of a giveaway, IMO. Still funny tho
Form an employee company
Like, cooperating at work?
I think being somewhat transparent is the point. You want them agreeing untilnthey get to the end and say “oh”, and feel angry/annoyed by the satire, but deep down you’re sowing doubts that maybe this does all make sense and that you should investigate it more and get educated.
Missing nsfw tag for memetic agent with acute physiological aneurism vector.
Nevertheless, excellent shitpost.
Capitalist’s workers should rally behind such a great example.it kinda shows that labels have become a tool to obscure thinking.
No right winger would think that. They like their hierarchies, their classes of people, and some being worth more than others so there is someone to punch down.
Just so long as they are at least one level up. It is why they like to demonize non whites because it’s easy and let’s the rubes be content to sit at the bottom.
“You have to work your way up! If your stuck at the bottom, it is because you didnt pull your bootstraps hard enough!”
Back in 2016,my BIL told me, “I could be as rich as Trump, I just don’t want to work that hard.”
…Still lived with his parents at 40.
I could also be rich as trump if… my daddy was a wealthy slumlord.
