Hey Zig Forums, new lurker here. I don't really feel like I fit in with the left or right and I've had trouble finding a community that shares my views. I don't know what you would really call my ideology. I am economically communist, elitist / paternalist, not biologically racist, anti-feminist, against sex work, progressive leaning on LGBT issues, and a neo-luddite. Zizek, Christopher Lasch, and the Frankfurt School are some of my favorite lefty theorists outside of the typical Marxist canon. Is this board a good place for me, and would you welcome me as a comrade in the fight against capitalism and liberal fun?
Yeah you can stay lol whatever We're not a secret club

From a basic moderation perspective, the mods only sperg out when they find anything they think it's "imperialist". Even though the board is dominated by Marxist-Leninists there's a good variation of takes, though as I said the heavy moderation fucks that up a bit.
Austin Richardson
I too oppose imperialism, so this shouldn't be an issue. Any other tips on not getting banned? The rule "Don't attempt to cloak reactionary politics in left-wing rhetoric" in the sticky has me a little nervous, along with the warning that non-leftists should be on "better behavior."
Josiah Cooper
i wouldnt worry about getting banned unless you are illiterate, capable of multiple typos per post, racial epithets, and grossly ignoring another's arguments oh wait… people like that never get banned, nvm lol. it's just like any other boards on a chan, the moderation is inconsistent and like other user said, probably because some of the volunteers are spergy about trigger topics.
Angel Collins
Honestly? simply find ways to avoid bans, moderation here fucking sucks, and like any other place in the entire internet you should be allowed to keep posting, as long as it's not spam or being intentionally obtuse.
Now, for the real answer, as you've said, you don't have any particular "reactionary" stances regarding anything to do with race, gender or sex, so I think you will be alright.
Landon Gonzalez
Don't worry, as long you don't post obvious nazi stuff like "Gaz teh nigga Kikez" it is actually impossible to get banned. This isn't r/socialism
Samuel Gomez
Read the literature in the Reading List sticky.
Samuel Reed
Thanks, chief.

The moderators give out bans freely and arbitrarily. Making too good an argument from a POV not straightforwardly communist will do it. I haven’t kept an exact track, but I think I have three bans for egalitarian capitalism, two bans for no apparent reason, one for objecting to thread consensus, three for posting garbage rhetoric of low quality, and three for openly discussing the frequency with whoch I get banned for posting.
Caleb Edwards
Even if it offends the mods, unless your take is horribly egregious your topic will just get anchored or locked or deleted most likely, we have a fairly wide range of crazy opinions.
Probably the reason you get banned so much is that it obviously doesn't stick, eh? There are designated topics for tourists from other ideologies, I'm sure if you stick to them you'll be fine enough if you are open and honest.

Fuck dyslexics am i right why should we tolerate a missing comma?
Inb4 ban on a legitimate criticism for possible discrimination on dyslexics…
Xavier Myers
The reason you get banned is becuase you're butthurt and rather than taking a ban for what it is, which is essentially telling you you're retarded and should stop being a faggot, you instead choose to get all indignant and then start trolling to own the jannies epic style. Have you ever considered that if you are continually getting banned for attempting to consistently lawyer and troll, that it might actually be you that is the problem and not the moderation team? Wait, of course you haven't, because you're a child angery that someone other than your parents are disciplining you.

LGBT is mostly genetically based outside of some LARPing non-binary troons and d-generate promicuous pansexuals, and the minority of crazies who want to "dismantle gender" have little mainstream influence. Feminism, on the other hand, is an advanced mind cancer with no basis in reality that has successfully infected many aspects of western culture. As for the Ludditism, read based Uncle Ted.
We haven't banned that one guy yet so I don't think we're gonna ban dyslexics.
Robert Nguyen
i'm just saying my dude… i dont use any proper punctuation or grammar, but you can still catch fash making obvious typos because they are incessant phoneposting normies. it's more about that womanly thing, "it's how you said it, not what you said." see the guy two posts after you? total retard shitposter.
the gender containment thread is for you to go ruin, retard. go there and be dumb there instead of here. see? like i said you can spot the fashie easily by their silly canards and cliched buzzword use. then he goes on to tell people to read the unabomber manifesto as if it compares to actually reading marx, engels, lenin, stalin, etc. ted didnt work within dialectical materialism, even if his manifesto is a fun read, it's worthless to us. it's "read settlers" but for cranks and tinfoil hats.
Carter Miller
RIP me. At least that means someone is reading my shitposts though. Here's your replacement meme.
