I feel the same. Is there no communist online community that doesn't promote trans drivel? I know mostly nothing about politics, and communism seems interesting so I want to learn about it, but all leftist places are so pro-trans. I even saw a r/stupidpol mod saying they wanted to ban "TERFs". I don't get it? Isn't most of the world "Trans Exclusionary"? Pick any random woman in China or Africa and surely there's a 99% chance she thinks only women can menstruate?

you’re not allowed to be against trans bs nonsense unless you wanna be kicked out, if you do it online you get banned and cancelled, I can’t take this shit anymore

Yeah, trans activists make the left completely toxic to people. Ladydick and the jewish question are both moronic subjects, but I'm having a more pleasant time interacting with literal fascists on saidit than lefty trans activists on reddit, cause most of the nazis won't run crying to the mods and attempt to get my account banned for disagreeing.

Want my advice? Just read actual communist lit if you wanna get into it, maybe try working with a union or some party. The only leftist space online I find remotely tolerable is a board called leftypol, but you probably wouldn’t like it. As for readings, you’re better off just reading either classical marxist texts or reading people like Paul Cockshott and John Smith for contemporary theoretical work. One good recent book is Socialism or Extinction by Ted Reese.

And yea, idky Reddit got devoured by trans mods in general

Thank you for the recommendations, I will note them down.

I can handle rude and edgy behaviour, the only thing I can't stand about 4chan style websites is that they tend to be infected by pedos who like little cartoon girls. Leftypol seems to like catgirls but as long as they aren't too creepy about it, it seems ok to me.
