Marxist-Leninist are the most active IRL leftists. i know this to be true because they're always saying that. i find this to be odd given that all the IRL leftists i've ever known are anarchists or Trotskyists. the MLs i only ever meet online tell me this is because all the leftists i've ever known have been feds. i've always found this odd, too, since the only ML i ever knew in real life was an IRS agent who turned Trotskyist after her brother was killed by a soviet agent. the MLs i only ever meet online tell me this is because i'm a fed. i find this odd, too, since so many of my friends are in hiding, in jail, or out on bail awaiting trial and i'm powerless to use any of my fed connections to do anything about this. i wish i knew what we were ivestigating. until i find out i suppose i'll keep working to build a better world where i am however i can
