I don’t have any one political view I make my own and follow no one
how do you get to the age of being a grown, functional adult and still believe this
political education is down the shitter
this is the kind of guy who looks you dead in the eyes and describes himself as a “lone wolf” without a hint of irony
Political education in the US is designed to churn out peoole who unironically say shit like that and simultaneously believe that they are radical and unique from everyone else saying the sane thing
That’s not unique to amerika. Its a Liberalism thing. kkkanadians are no better.
We’re arguably worse on that front
I know some canadian leftishists and their nationalism is very strange compared to their professed beliefs.m
Same person is convinced they are 100% impervious to marketing and propaganda.

This is just the smug centrist line these people say, when in reality they agree with 99% of the fascist online discourse and think “the left” are the big enemy.
That’s so funny and based lmao, they just give them this random looking link but when you click you get this big THE PRINCIPLES OF COMMUNISM popping off taking half of your screen like some kind of screamer for libs 🤣🤣
OH GOD I’M ON A WATCHLIST
I was always under the impression that the .ml stood for Marxist-Leninist
The comments on the .world post read like an advert for .ml. “They banned me for being a piece of shit, and tried to have slurs blocked in the source.”
That’s cruel. Liberals burst into flame upon reading the holy writ
I review these. The
of them respond with “No.”, which technically is a complete sentence in Engel’s text.How many people just copy pasted the footnote about the Chartists? Or hell, just typed a number?
that’s something smuglords and hexbears would do lmao
Yeah that’s the Poe’s Law of it 🤷
So did you let them in then? lol
🙊
no, no, i’m not a maoist, i just happened to reach the same conclusion as maoism from first principles reasoning, as an independent free thinker
I was wondering if they had introduced some javascript to invigilate people actually retyping a sentence which would be funny. But it literally just says copy/paste. And if you really felt badly about this text you could find a sentence like this one:
No.
And if that’s not good enough, well, I guess it’s just not the instance for you.
As someone who started on lemmy.ml because I wanted a Communist/Leftist instance:
if you follow no one why are you surprised no one cares
i keep being banned by lemmy.ml admins when i get into arguments with tankies.
one day i will stop procrastinating and roll my own instance
Looked through the modlog and it looks like most of your removed posts are just you being a belligerent asshole, so
and yet here YOU are throwing barefaced insults and not getting banned for it
helpful, thanks for your input
lol this was reported as linking a reactionary source (rule 2)
That’s no good. Can you provide a link to these arguments so we can make sure that the admins aren’t abusing their power?
well the same admin deleted those posts at the same time so… no
So what was your source? Was it the black book of communism?
it was an essay that it’s self referenced the black book of communism and talked about the limitations of that particular text; then went on to talk about other obscenely large figures of deaths at the hands of maoism from other sourcea. so yeah, the 70 million figure may have been incorrect, but that doesn’t mean a lot of people didnt die.
i’m not getting into this conversation again though, i got banned last time, so dont reply expecting me to take the bait.
then went on to talk about other obscenely large figures of deaths at the hands of maoism from other sourcea.
Ending the practice of footbinding alone justifies every single thing Mao ever did. You don’t even have to include the fact that life expectancy was 33 years old at the time of the revolution starting, or that it went UP during the revolution, during a period of 2 civil wars and a brutal fascist invasion, because the communists were still somehow improving more lives under those conditions. Life expectancy was in the 60s by Mao’s death.
Did he make mistakes? Sure he did, he shouldn’t have killed all the sparrows and the cultural revolution was kinda hit n miss mostly miss. But come the fuck on lifespans do not go UP while people’s lives are getting worse, shorter, or whatever.
Footbinding on the other hand was a brutal horrific practicing affecting 50% of all poor women and 100% of rich women. For a thousand years. Holy shit yes Mao was justified.
This is ultra basic stuff mate you’re better than this. 70% good, 30% bad. Overall an obviously positive effect on China. Taking “a lot of people died” out of context and into isolation instead of comparing it to how many people were already dying and how things improved is pure hog brained propaganda and you shouldn’t fill your head with that method of looking at things, it’s the analysis of a literal child or someone that is criminally thick.
I really don’t understand why lemmy.ml’s instance description no longer has “leftist” in it as it once had. That probably would have prevented a lot of the confusion. (and probably would have somewhat preserved the “culture” of the instance even after the reddit flood)
There are a lot of American liberals there who think that being centre-right is actually “leftist” so I think it’s related to that. It isn’t really a leftist instance anymore and hasn’t been since the big reddit exodus, so that’s probably why.
what could the .ml mean?
it is a mystery
Non “commies” dont spend all day thinking of either lenin nor marx and are unlikely to make that connection.
Lemmy.ml advertised it’s self as a foss/dev community during the reddit exodus last year which is why i signed up for it.
god, i wish, instead i think about ice cream, tea, and guitar tones all day.
seems it’s still in line with foss principles though, though i’ve been very vocal about my disdain for open source nerds for not knowing how to make a program people can figure out without having used anything else first.
Foss devs document literally anything challenge yadda yadda.
anything to avoid learning how to make a good UI i guess.
I feel hurt we didn’t think of this first
They have to name 3 reasons America deserved 9/11
Please rewrite the following in Maoist Standard English: “Death to the United States of America”
Death to the uniturd StateS of ameriKKKa?
*SSnake$ of AmeriKKKa
See me after class
Ah fuck I told Langley I wasn’t ready, but they wouldn’t listen
mfers too lazy to google marxists.org for a copypasta
Lmao, how is that worse than “click every picture that has a [thing] in it”
