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.

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.

Yeah you are right. 

I run a rehab center and I am involved with an organization that is committed to ending prison rape. This organization is made up conservative evangelicals and progressives.

But whatever, this is why I dislike reaching out the aisle to white progressives on Reddit lmao

Your mistake is assuming I'm white and that "I" reach across the aisle to deal with white progressives

My organizing and support is largely for the black and queer community tho I have donated to bail bonds as well.

Prison rape is heinous and I fucking hate prison rape jokes
