Lets be honest, its hard to find RevLeft when theres not many who knows it. I wonder what the most popular and known communist website is. :confused:

Anyways how did you found RevLeft and RAAN for that matter?

Personly i found it at a YouTube comment.

Well, che-lives.com. When I was 16 I thought che shirts looked cool and che was cool so I bought one. When I had devopled a more serious interest in radcial politics, I remembered che-lives and went there, there is a link.

Once, I used to post happily on the forum of the finnish communist youth. Then Sentinel stormed in and tried to recruit people here. Apparently he succeeded.

Was tired of reading retarded comments on forums left by centrist/rightist/nationalist fence sitting pricks. Searched for a Leftist forum on google, found this site with hammer and sickles all over the place, liked very much.

I searched for 'anti nazi forum' on Google and got this place lol. I was skeptical about all the hammer & sickles at first (as I was unsure what communism was) but I saw the Anarchy & Antifa logos at the top and thought I'd stay and check it out.

Some people who used to be my friends told me about this site.

I was initiated into RAAN by grandmaster Nachie.

Nachie, like others, is how I learned about RAAN. As for RevLeft, I think I first heard about it on YouTube, but didn't pay attention to it at all. Then a couple months later, I remembered and only then did I realize this site is linked to Che Lives. :lol:

I learned about this site from an anarchist forum.

I think I first learned about RAAN when I was researching Venezuela and came across the article 'The Civil War in Venezuela' on their website.

I was looking around online for a good, affordable watch. One of sunfarstar's threads (which somehow hadn't been trashed yet) came up in a google search, and that's how I found revleft.

:thumbup1:Typical sunfarstar eh? My story is (kind of) similar. I was reccomended this site by a friend who does have an account, although doesn't post much at all, when he showed me a thread started by him detailing how he wanted to go join the zapatistas to help them fight for freedom. :thumbup1:

I was engaged in some researches on National Bolshevism (I know, very fitting ;)) and Google linked to a discussion here. I clicked the link, saw the logo - and the cool grey background - and immediately signed up. And I've never regretted it! :D

I was reading comments on an internet news story. Someone made the comment that "revolution probably isn't going to happen for a very long time, if ever" (or something to that effect, can't remember what the story was actually about), to which someone else replied, "oh yeah, tell that to these losers" and posted a link here. I clicked it, and the rest is history.

That's interesting. But my story was a joke actually. I don't remember how I found this site; probably from a search.

I was looking up anarchist slogans for some flyers I was making (I lost all my files when my hard rive died last month.) and thought it looked cool, so I joined.
Quick fact: I wasn't a commie till after I joined here.

I was on another forum where they posted a link to revleft with the accompanying text: this is a forum you guys would hate.

as i hated the forum i was on, i clicked and stayed here instead.

I'm not sure. It was still Che-Lives back then.

Heh. No, from Indymedia, actually.... Wish I'd found it years earlier, and wish I'd been born later so that my early years around revolutionary politics could have been online-only -- it's just so much cleaner this way...(!) (Especially in dealing with less-than-revolutionary types....)

When I moved first left home, I didn't know anybody in the city I'd moved to. A friend in the communist party directed me to Che y Marijuanna, who convinced me a) to take up drinking (I quit again six or so months ago, after a handful of years of on-and-off alcoholic shit-show) and b) to sign up here.

Weird because that's exactly how I found it. Except for I didn't buy a che t-shirt I was just checking out the place.

Those were the days though when Che was the greatest person in the world.

I learned about this site back when it was the official Che-Lives.Com forum. This shows how long I've been around I guess, as that was a good 7-8 years ago.
