My friend made me install Bumble. I want something that leftists will recognize but that won't immediately scare off liberals (I can fix them)

Does anyone have any cool Lenin quotes for this purpose or something

sure thing just put this in your bio:

"The Maoist uprising against the landlords was the most comprehensive proletarian revolution in history, leading to almost totally equal redistribution of the land amongst the peasantry"

Can't wait to match with the leftist love of my life only for our accounts to get terminated before exchanging phone numbers because we're inciting violence against landowners

smh my head, this is why we need open source dating apps

(but like if we could get everyone on dating apps to use one that unironically would be infinitely better than the shit we have now)

I would match you immediately.

[-] [email protected] 24 points 2 years ago

if anyone has this in their bio, I'm sliding straight into their DMs with "death to landlords, wanna grab coffee?"

I did this once and shortly thereafter had the hottest date of my life with a dope commie

[-] [email protected] 20 points 2 years ago

So corny they would've been advised for use by the Kruschev admin

"hey leftists can you gimme something subtle"

"lead off with denouncing US propaganda against the soviet union, yknow, to test the waters"

[-] [email protected] 40 points 2 years ago

If you don't shout "Joseph Stalin saved the world from fascism and the reactionaries who formed the Nazi Arming & Training Organization will never forgive him for that!" at everyone you're attracted to you are basically a liberal ngl

A more genuine answer might be the Debs soul in prison quote. It's a really clear statement of values without being frighteningly radical.

[-] [email protected] 31 points 2 years ago

That's actually a pretty good suggestion

A yellow Parenti filter on the pfp should work too

"Looking for a fellow traveler"

It's kind of an older phrase though

[-] [email protected] 44 points 2 years ago

I wouldn't recognize that one as a leftist dogwhistle, I think

"looking for a maoist fellow traveler"

[-] [email protected] 22 points 2 years ago

at least where i live, like two thirds or more of dating profiles included some reference to travelling or travel buddy

[-] [email protected] 19 points 2 years ago

I would assume this means you're a gay guy in like 1945

[-] [email protected] 31 points 2 years ago

I can fix them

bold words, Cotton

[-] [email protected] 28 points 2 years ago

this is a terrible suggestion

[-] [email protected] 31 points 2 years ago

I think any sort of play on "workers of the world unite!" Or even a conspicuously placed use of the word "union" would trigger my leftist alarm.

my dating bio is just the Maoist cult pizza slave story

Texting my matches like "Hey bby Imma make you feel like the women of East Germany before reunification ;)))"

I used to have surprisingly good responses on tinder by starting the discussion with "what's your opinion on Palestine?"

Most didn't have one but almost everyone responded and gave a good indication of their values with it (this obviously depends strongly on your area)

"Women hold up half the sky" would probably fly under the radar for most libs, and if they recognize it, they are most likely going to be annoying

[-] [email protected] 25 points 2 years ago

I think you’re overthinking this. Literally just say “I’m a communist”, that’s gonna weed out pretty much everyone you wouldn’t want to get with anyway.

"I don't date conservatives or liberals, but I'm repeating myself."

Mine just says queer anticapitalist poly. Folks get the hint. The worst I ever get with that is Warren libs but they can be fixed.

I met my wife by just putting that I was a communist in my bio. She had that she liked to read communist political books. You could just outright say it but that might be dangerous depending on who you're meeting up with.

[-] [email protected] 20 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I did a bit about adding "inspiring eco terrorist" to my dating profile a while back.

Obviously it was a bit... and parody.. a joke.

“I only sleep with communists. I will test you”

More of a foghorn i suppose
