I've noticed that whenever we get trolls, they uh, well... they're not great folks. They're not sending their best.

In order to help our struggling trolls, I have complied a list of things that make us angry, to give them a head start.

  1. Claim to be a leftist and then insist Joe Biden is the lesser of two evils that we all need to vote for. Debate this topic calmly and confidently no matter how much you are proven wrong.

  2. "Although it's a good thing that Thatcher/Kissanger/Regan is dead, I think it is poor taste to celebrate anyone dying. We are better than this and should respect the dead no matter who they are."

  3. On a similar note, civility policing in general is a good way to piss off Hexbear. "Nobody is going to accept the left if we antagonise everyone. Let's at least try to get along with liberals and change their minds with kindness!"

  4. Defend the Cybertruck. Defend Elon Musk in general.

  5. Anything pro-capitalist tbh

  6. I can't think of anything else, what do you guys think? Help our poor struggling trolls! (Or maybe that's just troll singular, we don't have many. Poor things are starving.)

Read Lenin looking for specifically the names of people he's dunking on, then look those people up and take their exact stances.

While you're doing it, also look for stuff Lenin said that you can take out of context, like, "Lenin said you should participate in bourgeois democracy so that means you have to vote blue no matter who."

No I'm not trying to trick trolls into reading Lenin, what would make you think that

Lenin said you should participate in bourgeois democracy so that means you have to vote blue no matter who.

They always omit "with your own organisation and political program" part.
