Indeed. I find that a lot of us tend to have hostility towards outsiders. Even myself am capable of it at times. A lot of people/outsiders aren't curious or interested in the content like you and rather think they're sticking it to the "evil tankies" or leaving behind some smug comment about western propaganda they consumed. It's genuinely a 9 times out of 10 thing.

As cfgaussian said. Do stick around and learn about us. Even if you don't agree with us or have a distaste with us, you'll find yourself with a litany of new material to learn and educate yourself on outside of political theory. Simply just other perspectives, the diverse community we have here and our collective struggle.

Thanks for being kind, have a nice day.
