Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

I'm not disagreeing with you. I was just noticing some people replying that they didn't know what the word means. I would agree that the anti-US position is the correct position 95% of the time.

I believe that "ultra" has probably already reached the media-sphere. I've seen the word "ultra" used by liberals to describe socialists who are against participating in US electoralism. Also seen the phrase "purity test" used in a similar way.

"Trotskyist" would be funny but I think main stream media would view Trotskyism positively.

This is the verbiage version of the hantavirus cruise ship.

I think ""trot" could be seen as it's own thing by libs though.
