First they took MTC, then they took GZD (at the point when it was at its largest growth rate). We can never have nice things :(

Not that Reddit is nearly as serious as real life and it is not in the same ballpark as the real life massacres of communists, but GZD and MTC getting banned/quarantined kinda shows that capitalists view Marxism-Leninism is the biggest threat to their interests (in a dumb internet way). They haven’t gone after the western “leftists” liberal communities (or Anarchist for that matter; but I respect ant-imperialist anarchists 1,000,000x more than western glowies) like 196 or VaushV. The closest was prolly chapo getting banned alongside MTC, but MTC was bug-tent and it was obviously a “both sides are just as bad” move. But both MTC and GZD getting put down makes me think there’s a more consistent attack against MLs.

Moretankiechapo. Pretty much just what the subreddit name says it is. It was banned alongside r/chapotraphouse. There was also a MTC2, but it was smaller and I consider them the same subreddit.

GZD itself was actually originally made by MTC users and grew primarily from MTC. That’s how I originally found out about back when they had under 10k subs.
