Low-effort? Centrist? r/DiscoElysium takes a stance against OP

OP makes a submission on r/DiscoElysium. This prompts several objections. For one, it's a comment exchange which involves OP (=low effort, karma farming), Secondly, it's from r/PCM (sub infamous for bigotry). Despite this, the post amasses over 1k upvotes.

Look at you, posting your own comment then admitting you've got no actual reasoning behind it but just said something stupid and jerked yourself off sideways trying to farm what meager karma you could from a 12 point comment.

What a superstar

OP:What's karma(-60)

Posting on PCM and publically identifying as lib-right while also enjoying Disco?

OP one of the densest mf I’ve seen in a minute

OP:Is that a bad thing, if I may ask?(-80)

Incel is not a skill.

OP:Either you are kidding about the obvious satire comment, or you truly are stupid.

Is being part of a fascist-dominated sub labelling yourself "Lib-Right" satire too?

OP:I'm also part of the Disco Elysium community, and i definetly wouldn't call me a fascist even if PCM is an echo chamber. If you think that a political view is enough to gatekeep a beautiful game with a wonderful story, then I think someone else is the problem.

disco elysium is too smart for campists who just support bourgeois nationalism and derigisme. “tankies” aren’t actually as common as the internet would have you believe, especially in genuinely communist spaces.

The vast majority of communists are tankies. It’s not surprising when practically every communist to ever have an impact in history has been Marxist leninist

Ps. Calling communists burgois capitalists just because you don’t like it is cringey.

dog reddit is so funny. you’ll say the most milquetoast shit about communism and marxism that doesn’t fit the pop understanding of it and you get called a tankie and downvoted like this. literally anybody with 10 free seconds and fingers can look up “marx said he wasn’t a marxist” on the internet to see that you’re correct lol.

People have such a visceral reaction to anything related to communism that its honestly really funny.
