Considering this guy was not traditionally left leaning…

From his online footprint it seems like Luigi did not meet the mold many would have expected of a left wing revolutionary. Also considering I have been seeing a lot of “the right looks for allies, the left looks for rats”, I created a new group r/ClassConscious . It’s supposed to be a thread where we can share ideas/memes with people of different political beliefs to continue to solidify the idea of class consciousness in the minds of people who might just be waking up to it. Once people realize that one kind of oppression is wrong, they might realize that other types are wrong too (or at least that’s the idea). I can’t think of a better page to ask for help than the BtB audience. Being around here a while it seems like most people take a rational approach to the problems we face. I am not a content creator or very witty, or all that good at knowing what will grab people’s attention. So I ask you all to help me, with posting and bringing attention to the staggering wealth gap that has developed in our societies. It’s not something that matters just to the left… between Luigi and the elons bullshit, I think this has a fighting chance.

Please post anything you think will appeal to those not normally thinking about r/ClassConscious (ness) in the same way.

Why do you consider yourself a right wing populist?

Which "some of us" are your bros here? Genuinely curious.

By "fighting" he means shitposting so don't take him seriously.

I also took a look at his posting history and I'm not incredibly impressed by his political compass memes.

But I genuinely am curious how a right wing populist thinks he is somehow fighting with us.

I run a rehab center and I get a lot of assistance from irl progressives. That is what I meant from progressive bros. 

I am also involved in an organizing that is committed to ending prison rape. This organization is made up of conservative evangelicals and progressives. That is also what I meant by progressive bros. We actually have been fighting to end the private prison industry in my state

But whatever. This is why progressives don’t get shit done. I seen you guys put your own through hell, make them pass purity tests and then bash them when they don’t pass. Now you gout some guy attacking me and going thought my post history for my shitposting lmao. 

As a Latino this is why I dislike white progressives coming into our communities trying to help. For this exact reason lmao

Yeah the infighting a purity shit is a problem. One that I don’t think will stop (see above). But as a conservative I’d ask you to please reach out to others that might see some of the same issues as important. My point wasn’t to make another leftist board, but considering how I am I am sure that will come across. I’m hoping to find other posters equally upset about wealth inequality and open to the idea that the richest people in our society do not really deserve to live off the toil of the common folk
