Also known as "Yangster", "Yangie Commie", or even "Yangist Communist", a Yang Commie is an
Internet user who is a self-proclaimed Marxist-Leninist (Authoritarian Communist) and a notorious
simp for the character Yang Xiao
Long from the American-produced
anime series RWBY. They emerged on Yang Xiao
Long's
birthday celebrated on July 28th, 2023 on Twitter (known also as X) and are also present in Mastodon.
They are often spotted with profile pictures of Yang Xiao Long with communist imagery. Their goal is to make Yang Xiao Long be in a relationship with a boy after having witnessed Yang kiss Blake in Volume 9 of the series. They often make satirical and trollsome statements such as Volume 69 (a satirical chapter where Yang Xiao Long would most likely end up being married to a young man of her age) or shipping them with their own male OCs but they also provide some truthful information such as Yang not being in a romantic relationship during Volume 1.
Yang Commies tend to be often anti-
LGBTQ+ due to their views on RWBY and Yang Xiao Long.
"Dude! This
guy is spewing shit on the
Internet about Yang being attracted to the opposite sex. He's probably a Yang Commie."
"I've never seen crazier homophobes than the Yang Commies who think that Yang Xiao
Long from RWBY should have kissed a boy instead of Blake."
"I guess you can say that they are a 'Yang Commie'."
