eh....they're closer than the average american, but the vast majority are DSA "activist" types who are much closer to starting a petition than doing anything truly revolutionary.

With that being said, their fan-base is large enough that there are probably a good chunk of them that are more militant and ready to become more militant.

It's where practically all online socialists have migrated to tho. You can't engage with socialism online any more without feeling their influence. And as usual, tankies used entryism to seize control and ensure that sub will never breed anything but shit pseudo-radicals.

Also, I thought it was pretty telling that the Gravel Teens, who come from that sub and embody much of it's ethos, have one of their leaders planning on joining the US military... I don't think the theory is very deep for the vast majority of people on that sub or who listen to the podcast.
