Chapo.chat is a popular one for leftists that formed after the chapo subreddits were censored/banned a couple months ago. Fair warning: most HN users aren't going to like it because they advocate for things like food and shelter and healthcare for everyone, no matter what


Most HN users aren't going to like it because it is for far-left "tankies" that promote violence. One of the top posts right now is:

>Some people deserve their heads to be displayed on spikes


To be fair, that posting is largely tongue in cheek because they're bitter for getting banned on reddit under the false pretense of violence. I'm sure a couple people believe it unironically but no one is actually organizing to hurt anyone.


>false pretense of violence

It was pretty real

I don't think anyone associated with y combinator or for that matter, enjoy posting on here would be welcome there.

I would even wager a large chunk would happily wish death on people here for "perpetuating a broken system" or some odd thing.


As a leftist myself I'd be inclined more to this one, although I wouldn't condone any violence that is not for self defense, nor attacking anyone just because of their ideals - unless their ideals consist in endorsing the opposite of the above. My take on food and shelter and (basic) healthcare for all is that I agree until this can pose a (real, proven) problem for others. Judging from current military expenses and top manager leaves, I'd dare to say that there's enough wealth out there to guarantee most of that to the entire planet.
