Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

Seen a lot of rightists with cringe lists, so I was curious to see what comrades identify with.

Mine are: Duncan Idaho, Nagito Komaeda, Moneo Atreides, Miles Teg, Kokichi Oma, Anakin Skywalker(not Darth Vader), Pavel Korchagin, and that one guy from Changjin Hu whose name I forgot who blew up the tank with the explosives pack thingy (I watched it a long time ago, OK?)

What are yours?

No one! :D Because while I can recognize traits of myself within characters, I get none of the internal life that makes up 99% of who I am. Media also has, and is not necessarily a bad thing, but it has a tendency towards simplifying complex nuances down to easily digestible sound bytes. There’s very few pieces of media that accurately reflect anything, how could I ever expect them to accurately reflect me? Maybe in a communist society, but movie studios aren’t about to make a genuinely radical piece, and liberal attempts at understanding and portraying radicalism come off as hollow and miss the Mark literally every single time.
