jesus, they're gonna bring back "campists"? I thought they already exhausted that one past its expiration date back in 2020 or something?

"Campism" in practice always just looks like "knowing what side you're on and rooting for outcomes accordingly."

Streamers and other e-celebs who make their money off of "challenging people's ideas online" (contain your laughter!) hate the idea of people making up their minds and moving on.

Endless Debate Club is what they want. Endless content drama.

Liberals keep raiding the Trotskyist piggybank for left-punching terms. Once campist gets used up in 10 years they'll go with "left-deviationist" or something.

They'll circle back to Stalinists eventually

Libs will use "ultras" in 5 years.

I've already seen it use sometimes. They're definitely using "purist" in the exact same way.
