* Grimm TLH Comics
* Rat Form

Grimm, also known by many Grimmonyms, (born on the 9th April 2004) is a Staff Member, Cult Leader, Teacher of Anarchism, and Rat aficionado on The Leftist Hub.

## History

After a randomly scrolling through LOLSU, rat decided to click on Bonno's profile and saw the link within. On a whim, clicking it. This brought him into The Leftist Hub for the first time, within which she did verification, before getting banned for supposedly being a "rightist". After a bit of complaining within (the server they owned at the time) Spooksek Division (as it was named back then) he managed to get another chance. With a new invite to TLH and an apology in DMs from Bonno, Grimli was back in TLH!

## Politics

### Political Journey

#### Social Democrat Phase

In the beginning Grimli was a SocDem, as is natural of a swede. Having such "brilliant" takes as: "More taxes means more money to the government, which is always good!"

#### Classical Liberal Phase

Later though in life, acquiring a fondness for the free market, and viewing it as a truly fair system where the good companies would make more profit and therefore be more successful, vice versa for the bad companies. During this time, viewing himself as a Classical Liberal. After starting Swedish High School and taking the economics program, these views started shifting.

#### Egoist Phase

She then started being an egoist, that then being extrapolated into Egoist Anarchism. This was in practice just Anarcho-communism through a very individualist lens. The studies of economics continued to point out flaws and holes in the capitalist system, it being made clear that this is a system that inherently relies on the misery of some for its continued survival.

#### Anarcho-communist Phase

With the realization of the facts mentioned in the earlier paragraph, rat became an anarcho-communist. Believing in a popular revolution and a mass movement bringing us to anarchy. With the overall critique of capitalism just extending, but a basic view of the individual from the last phase still persisting. Some other basic parts of Egoism being preserved as well.

#### Platformism

With the studies of earlier anarchist projects, they became a Platformist, viewing it as the main viable form of praxis as the critique of syndicalism got more sharp. It was also during this period that he began properly reading more theory, only earlier having read The Unique and Its Property, and Stirner's Critics. There was later the development of Individualist Platformism, this though fizzling out as rat realized how all the extensions in part of it could just fit in with anarcho-communism already, no new label required. Then came the development of Social Platformism with the assistance of a few others. A manifesto was written, with the ideology mainly being based on integrating Social Ecology. After this though, it was realized that Social Ecology did not really need any accommodations to fit with anarcho-communist theory, therefore he returned to the label of Platformist only.

### Political Positions

As a Platformist Anarcho-communist, rat is radically progressive and as far left as one can go in terms of economics, advocating for the gift economy. Other than this, there's a general advocacy of expropriation and the building of mutual aid networks, and the formation of platformist organizations.

In essence, all of her politics are extrapolated from the basic principle of mutual aid.

## Personal Life

Grimbles started out as but a wee lad, born in Karlskoga, Sweden, but would then go on to engage in many rat-related behaviors for her entire upbringing. These of course including: Scurrying, climbing, and nibbling. This foreshadowing the future fate of his personality.

Later in life Grimbo went through many troubles and trifles, facing both joy and hardship, but in the end becoming an Anarcho-communist Platformist, and joining TLH.
