    Well the blahaj.zone instance blocked me because I suggested that they shouldn’t celebrate “kys posts” and then stood up for myself when they insulted me and for what I said.

    I’m not a tankie, but people on lemmy get upset when you can seriously challenge them

    Absolutely fitting that Australia on this map is a neoliberal infested ideological hell.

    It always weirds me out how blind people are to the status quo. People will see it as intolerable that critical support for AES is a thing or that some people hold fringe opinions like “the dprk is good”, however will view people having positive opinions on the USA, Australia, the UK, or France as acceptable despite the horrific violence those countries export and direct internally.

    It seems very inconsistent to me, how people apply criticism to leftists they disagree with.

      Someone had a quote about how white supremacy is the black hole at the center of liberalism, invisible to the naked eye but observable by all their other ideas orbiting around it. These people do not appreciate just how suffused their upbringing has been in the polite kind of racism

        Good article, expresses the same frustration I have felt.

        People also memory-hole their own complicity. Like the invasion of Iraq in 2003(4?) was immensely popular in coalition countries (e.g. usa https://www.pewresearch.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/20/2023/03/PP_2023.03.14_iraq-war_00-04.png)

        Active dissent was rare. Yet there has been no reckoning, no addressing of the flawed ideology that lead people who consider themselves reasonable to support an illegal war that slaughtered around half a million people directly and has lead to many more deaths.

        But someone says “death to America” or whatever? Better start catawalling over the “correct” way to discuss your grievances. Heaven forfend someone say something like “I hope Iran brings the western world to its knees”. Then you’re supporting authoritarians.

    Its clear that Ada has chosen a path regarding this matter, and that is fully in line with the reactionaries. Its 196 and LibertyHub, ironically the two communities which I was one of the most central figures in.

    Im making a new community altogether, hopefully soon it will grow larger than anything I have ever made before

      Excuse me? Ada didn’t remove you as mod of LibertyHub because of any supposed tankie sympathies, she did it because Cassa and I asked her to.

      Cassa and I didn’t ask her to remove you as mod becuase of said sympathies either, we had to to prevent you from shutting down the community unilaterally without discussing it with either of us, the other two active mods.

      You literally made an announcement post, locked the com, and made a new com with the same name/banner on another instance without saying a word to either of us. How are we supposed to react to that? Need I remind you that despite your insistence to the contrary, LibertyHub was not originally your community. Just because LinkOpensChest.wav stepped down doesn’t give you unilateral control over it, at least as long as Cassa and I are still around.

        They didn’t say they were a reactionary just that they have aligned with their side in this matter. Subtle but important difference.

An international (English speaking) socialist Lemmy community free of “ML” (read: Dengist) influence. This is a place for undogmatic shitposting and memes from a progressive, anti-capitalist and truly anti-imperialist perspective, regardless of specific ideology.

Serious posts, news, discussion and agitprop/stuff that’s better fit for a poster than a meme go in c/Socialism.

If you are new to socialism, you can ask questions and find resources over on c/Socialism101.

Please don’t forget to help keep this community clean by reporting rule violations, updooting good contributions and downdooting those of low quality!

Rules

Version without spoilers

0. Only post socialist memes

That refers to funny image macros and means that generally videos and screenshots are not allowed. Exceptions include explicitly humorous and short videos, as well as (social media) screenshots depicting a funny situation, joke, or joke picture relating to socialist movements, theory, societal issues, or political opponents. Examples would be the classic case of humorous Tumblr or Twitter posts/threads. (and no, agitprop text does not count as a meme. Please post agitprop here)


0.5 [Provisional Rule] Try to use alt text or image descriptions to allow for greater accessibility

(Please take a look at our wiki page for the guidelines on how to actually write alternative text!)

We encourage alternative text (from now referred to as “alt text”) to be added to all posts/comments containing media, such as images, animated GIFs, videos, audio files, and custom emojis.
EDIT: For files you share in the comments, a simple summary should be enough if they’re too complex.

We are committed to social equity and to reducing barriers of entry, including (digital) communication and culture. It takes each of us only a few moments to make a whole world of content (more) accessible to a bunch of folks.

When alt text is absent, a reminder will be issued. If you don’t add the missing alt text within 48 hours, the post will be removed. No hard feelings.


0.5.1 Style tip about abbreviations and short forms

When writing stuff like “lol” and “iirc”, it’s a good idea to try and replace those with their all caps counterpart

  • ofc => OFC
  • af = AF
  • ok => OK
  • lol => LOL
  • bc => BC
  • bs => BS
  • iirc => IIRC
  • cia => CIA
  • nato => Nato (you don’t spell it when talking, right?)
  • usa => USA
  • prc => PRC
  • etc.

Why? Because otherwise (AFAIK), screen readers will try to read them out as actually words instead of spelling them


1. Socialist Unity in the form of mutual respect and good faith interactions is enforced here

Try to keep an open mind, other schools of thought may offer points of view and analyses you haven’t considered yet. Also: This is not a place for the Idealism vs. Materialism or rather Anarchism vs. Marxism debate(s), for that please visit c/AnarchismVsMarxism.


2. Anti-Imperialism means recognizing capitalist states like Russia and China as such

That means condemning (their) imperialism, even if it is of the “anti-USA” flavor.


3. No liberalism, (right-wing) revisionism or reactionaries.

That includes so called: Social Democracy, Democratic Socialism, Dengism, Market Socialism, Patriotic Socialism, National Bolshevism, Anarcho-Capitalism etc. . Anti-Socialist people and content have no place here, as well as the variety of “Marxist”-“Leninists” (read: Dengists) (actual ML’s are welcome as long as they agree to the rules and don’t just copy paste/larp about stuff from a hundred years ago).


4. No Bigotry.

The only dangerous minority is the rich.


5. Don't demonize previous and current socialist experiments or (leading) individuals.

We must constructively learn from their mistakes, while acknowledging their achievements and recognizing when they have strayed away from socialist principles.


6. Don't irrationally idolize/glorify previous and current socialist experiments or (leading) individuals.

Notable achievements in all spheres of society were made by various socialist/people’s/democratic republics around the world. Mistakes, however, were made as well: bureaucratic castes of parasitic elites - as well as reactionary cults of personality - were established, many things were mismanaged and prejudice and bigotry sometimes replaced internationalism and progressiveness.


  1. Absolutely no posts or comments meant to relativize(/apologize for), advocate, promote or defend:
  • Racism
  • Sexism
  • Queerphobia
  • Ableism
  • Classism
  • Sexual assault
  • Genocide/ethnic cleansing or (mass) deportations
  • Fascism
  • (National) chauvinism
  • Orientalism
  • Colonialism or Imperialism (and their neo- counterparts)
  • Zionism
  • Religious fundamentalism of any kind
