i.e. even if the hypothetical trotskyist says "based", by saying he's a trotskyist he increases the odds someone replies asking them to develop on why they agree with the purge, and even if they just say "oh, well because they were guilty" that's still a brief conversation that wouldn't otherwise have occurred.
the accusation of being sect-brained is entertaining considering that i've stated several times that part of why i use the flag i do is to filter people who can't read the argument without being distracted by the flag.
