Leftist Infighting: A community dedicated to allowing leftists to vent their frustrations

1283 readers

The purpose of this community is sort of a "work out your frustrations by letting it all out" where different leftist tendencies can vent their frustrations with one another and more assertively and directly challenge one another. Hostility is allowed, but any racist, fascist, or reactionary crap wont be tolerated, nor will explicit threats.

Thesis: bananas

Antithesis: potatoes

Synthesis: plantains

That's fair. Plantains have about 50% more potassium than bananas which is also around 50-60% less than a potato. Lmao

I always saw plantains as potato-like bananas.

They really are. More starchy, better if you cook them. Don't get me wrong, bananas are delicious, but man are they sugar/carb heavy. Only time I eat em now is when it's a Friday, I've had some beers, my diet died 2 hours ago, I have no shame, a jar of peanut butter, and there just so happens to be someone else's uneaten bananas on the counter about to go bad.... I know this sound really specific, but it's not an uncommon occurrence.
