I was wondering if anyone has any Marxist literature related to this topic, if it exists at all. Talking about “treats” is very much a part of the site’s culture, so I’m wondering if this part of hexbear has any grounding in the Marxist understanding of the world in the 21st century.

This is not a shitpost, I’m genuinely curious. Thanks! stalin-approval
