r/chapotraphouse (~150,000 members), a recently banned, extremist, and socialist-leaning subreddit

socialist-leaning

The feds just called us all libs lmao

utopian legends/narratives

damn even the feds think we’re libs

Quite frankly I’m offended that they classify r/moretankiechapo as “anarcho-socialist”.

Gems (also we should invite them to the discord where last night, 1 in 5 posts was about cum)

Though activity in Reddit grew overall by ~20% over the course of recent quarantine (see Appendix figure 6), we find surges far outpace that in these communities with increases of over 400% in activity on both r/chapotraphouse and r/socialistra.

Those are the numbers I like to see

On page 3 there is a chart that compares “anarcho-socialists” to ISIS and Boogaloo, with check marks showing we all commit lone wolf and cell terrorist attacks, as well as have “Utopian legends/narratives”

Anarcho-socialist militias which explicitly glorify Martyr narratives, classic authoritarian narratives, and revolutionary narratives are now formally organizing—and are growing.

Anarcho-authoritarian here ready to do a utopianism

Examining Twitter’s verified feed, we found that before the death of George Floyd, anti-police terms were not widely used on Twitter. By eye, the graph in figure 1 depicts a substantial change which occurs in the use of the term ACAB on the day the video of George Floyd’s death was circulated on social media.

Gee I wonder why anti-cop sentiment would grow after a high profile murder by police?

and socialist-leaning subreddit

Akin to the content we found when investigating the Boogaloo, dehumanizing memes and cartoonish calls for violent insurgency were present in all three communities and, by eye, r/dankleft appeared especially productive and creative in sharing these memes.

Meme subreddit likes memes, who knew?

Willem Van Spronsen… died in a shootout with Tacoma law enforcement while firebombing an ICE detention facility

Praise be upon him, but he certainly wasn’t a redditor.

I think my favorite part is that tankies get lumped in as anarcho-socialists, like they just fucking learned what the word communist meant but got confused.

The target of much of the recent outrage in these events has been the most visible institutional manifestation of state authority and raw power: the police.

Extremists use opaque memes and coded language

I’m pretty sure we say fuck the police pretty out and open

So apparently the Open Society Foundations, which is affiliated with the group that put together this report, is owned by George Soros. Ironic.

Acting as a public benefit corporation, NCRI is a not-for-profit organization that seeks to explore safe ways to audit, reveal challenges, devise solutions, and create transparency in partnerships with social media platforms, public safety organizations, and government agencies.

Since NCRI has no political agenda, profit motive or university reporting obligations, the Institute is well positioned to manage confidentiality in sensitive relationships.

🤣

During opportune moments of vulnerability, these groups take advantage of social unrest over major events such as the Covid lockdowns and George Floyd’s killing.

tfw anarcho-socialists (lol?) prey on the most vulnerable manifestations of state power, the uh… police.

is there any group on earth better at playing the victim than the ultra militarized police forces of western countries? bunch of actual pussies
