I say "crank" because the person's posting history is...intriguing to say the least but then they just say something like this and you're like, "Holy fuck, even the cranks can see right through the neoliberal ghoul-slop"
Of course, not all of them are like this; but in response to the whole "drone debacle" that's going on right now over the U.S a lot of obvious lib-leaning types are quick to jump on it being "RUSSIA N CHINA!!" while these fellas are already jaded to it. Neat.
Then they go on and post about Sistine lizard people or whatever. Does anyone else know what I mean by these nuggets of consciousness?
Idk I feel like getting into stuff like communism and conspiracy theories can sometimes have the same origins but the person just took a wrong turn somewhere. After all we're also yelling about stuff like 'the elite is ruling us all' and shit.
Right, investigating what that wrong turn is was part of the point in asking I suppose. I think you're pretty much right in that there's some similarities, albeit with more nuance and constructive thought behind it. A lot of liberals seem to be even more clueless and/or less constructive than some cranks which is certainly saying something.
