        I mean, personally I started rolling my eyes when I saw the comment section almost immediately turned into .ml users simping HARD for China and North Korea, despite literally no one bringing them up.

          simping

          I’m not a political expert, is it good or bad when your political ideology uses incel lingo to lie to itself about what it’s opponents think?

        Maybe hold off on using terminology like “degenerate,” it has fascist implications. I agree with the sentiment, but we should be careful with wording.
