im so proud of you for this one, at least I know you're not in deep enough that you repeat the "LG and Hexbear are all chinese bots!?!?" cliche.

Still it hurts, can't you stroke our egos more like normal liberals do by pretending we're important enough for China to pay attention to us like that rage-cry

From comment section of this funny clip where a second thought clip plays while 2 dudes road rage and then one of them starts a fist fight and gets his ass beat.

Anyways, people who listen to him are telling others about him, and then I stumble on this part…

(Also, here’s discussion about the clip/comment section as a whole on LG already:

If they support the promotion leftist propaganda?

Lmao y’all don’t normally go mask off like this. Scratch a liberal ig

(Psst you’re supposed to say “Tankies aren’t really leftists!!!”)

Im an evil tankie out to control the other instances, you caught me!?!?!? Only thing I’ve come to do is ask your admins to be consistent and say this is for ideological reasons. Are you going to call the other .world commenters with concerns tankies too lol

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Well you really weren't having a conversation in good faith, dumb of me to expect better I guess, I'm a tankie after all

I'm not going to keep talking to someone who refuses to admit that people use extreme hyperbole. I'm not going to sit here and fucking tell you another 30 times that is obviously not a fucking plan of action that user wants to commit.

You also totally sidestepped my quote, which wasn't really about his little comment. it was to explain why I believe violence will be necessary to take power, my belief in which this quote was your response

And this doesn’t start your spider sense tingling that maybe you’re on the wrong side of things? Holy shit, do you do even half a minute of introspection? I’m sure fascists would say the same thing. Are they also justified in violence

I'm not going to keep talking in hypotheticals. this is debate pervertry of the worst kind, I'm a marxist we believe in keeping things grounded in the real world, which is why I linked you that quote. I have actual hard fucking evidence (of which that quote is literally just the smallest part, we could sit here for fucking days going over everything the United States alone has done to maintain power) that the capitalist world order will resort to extreme violence greater than any socialist state has ever dreamed of using to kill all who stand in their way of profit.

I dont give a shit about redeeming myself, I didn't advocate violence against you in the slightest, but I'm saying how could you believe I'm telling the truth? I'm trying to follow the rules of this instance, so if I were to answer that you do deserve violence I would be breaking the rules, why do you keep concern trolling like this

Anyways I'll let you have the last word, done engaging after this

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago

Yeah I just don't really care about this part of the thread you can be right or whatever have a good day

Nazi blames the Jewish people for all the wrongs in the world

please for the love of god stop equating political ideology and ethnicity, absolutely baffling behavior. I would ask you something about Nazi's but I'm going to tiptoe around the .world rules here

And this doesn’t start your spider sense tingling that maybe you’re on the wrong side of things? Holy shit, do you do even half a minute of introspection?

More than you would think I bet. do you think I just stumbled onto these beliefs happily? I've never even been in anything as violent as even a fucking fist fight in my life, I wish more than anything that it didn't have to be this way. Here's a quote from the Jakarta Method that sums up why I believe this quite nicely:

Please read long quote below (emphasis mine)

This was another very difficult question I had to ask my interview subjects, especially the leftists from Southeast Asia and Latin America. When we would get to discussing the old debates between peaceful and armed revolution; between hardline Marxism and democratic socialism, I would ask: “Who was right?”

In Guatemala, was it Árbenz or Che who had the right approach? Or in Indonesia, when Mao warned Aidit that the PKI should arm themselves, and they did not? In Chile, was it the young revolutionaries in the MIR who were right in those college debates, or the more disciplined, moderate Chilean Communist Party?

Most of the people I spoke with who were politically involved back then believed fervently in a nonviolent approach, in gradual, peaceful, democratic change. They often had no love for the systems set up by people like Mao. But they knew that their side had lost the debate, because so many of their friends were dead. They often admitted, without hesitation or pleasure, that the hardliners had been right. Aidit’s unarmed party didn’t survive. Allende’s democratic socialism was not allowed, regardless of the détente between the Soviets and Washington.

Looking at it this way, the major losers of the twentieth century were those who believed too sincerely in the existence of a liberal international order, those who trusted too much in democracy, or too much in what the United States said it supported, rather than what it really supported -- what the rich countries said, rather than what they did.

That group was annihilated.

  • Vincent Bevins, The Jakarta Method

Do you think it’s wrong that the ““status quo”” uses violence?

I don't oppose the status quo because it uses violence, I oppose it because it uses it against the working class, communists, minorities, really anybody who threatens the status quo. I would support the status quo if it was using that violence to protect the working class, communists, minorities, so that we will one day achieve a communist society where the state no longer even exists to use this violence. As long as the state exists, someone is going to use the violence it holds, and I want that violence to serve the interests of the working class, not the likes of billionaires who are currently hurtling us towards manman climate change disaster, if not extinction.

“ebil tankies”

I threw in the part about evil tankies because you seemed to be taking that comment as them seriously 100% wanting every single neoliberal to die and that there's no hyperbole there, which is very consistent with what people who throw around the term tankie say, they say we're the scum of the Earth who just find joy in murdering puppies or something. Seemed like where the conversation was going, forgive me, I've seen way too many people from .world head down that path so I had my guard up, it's annoying to have a conversation derailed by it

tell me if I personally deserve violence.

I have no clue if you "personally deserve violence". I don't really like playing the hypothetical game, and tbh even if I wanted to say so I wouldn't be able to because of the rules of this instance. If you're really truly interested in that part of the conversation we could take it somewhere else. I wouldn't be any more mean than I am now, I reserve that for people who come in to troll on lemmygrad and nazis

it's a post about getting hexbear back to the rest of lemmy, not federating. Don't know if you're lying or just didnt care to actually read the title of the thread: Scheduled downtime: 17th June, 9am CDT/2pm UTC

from the post:

Whilst we'll gain the ability to federate with other Lemmy & Mastodon instances, federation will initially be disabled. More on this in future posts.

you'll notice that this was explicitly not about federation, they weren't even sure if they were going to federate at this point in time, this was just to make development easier on Hexbear's devs

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago

yes, saying John Brown did nothing wrong, etc. That is a common theory yes.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago (3 children)

in Lemmygrad believe NATO to be a apparatus created by the capitalist US to spread their “capitalist” imperialism which means talking about anything in favor of NATO is capitalist apologia

stalin chad yes balloon

Begging you to read Lenin so you know what we mean when we say imperialism, it's not "when mean country does mean thing"

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago

I've been pretty good faith in my interactions in this thread, kept my temper for the most part. This is about as bad as it would get in .world threads.

 

Would like for us to get ahead of this instead of having to scramble

Mostly focuses on shounen and how it appeals to boys and young men, he links some other more femme centered vids in the description

 

Hexbear is far more likely to have users entering and using our comms, being another large socialist instance, albeit dedicated to left unity rather than Marxism like ourselves. I think there is enough of a culture change that we need to have a pinned post for hexbear users coming here explaining what kind of content/attitudes they might see here/what different rules to follow

There should also be a section dedicated to explaining to lemmygrad users to respect hexbear comm rules and what to expect from their users etc.

I think this would help ease any potential cross site struggle sessions

Some of the instances that we have chosen to defederate with have explicit political stances and ideologies. Their political stance and ideology had nothing to do with the choice to defederate. The choice to defederate was based on the amount of hate speech present on the instance and/or explicitly endorsing it.

What fucking hate speech, you weasly, lying shitlib. Your kind cheers on Russian deaths, calling them “orcs”, then you have the audacity to accuse us of hate speech? Go on, make more orientalist posts about China, and then come back and lecture us on hate speech.

The only “hate speech” I have is the hate for your dogshit, genocidal politics.

Our instance explicitly disallows and bans bigotry, and he’s going around posting this shit

Edit: And thinking about it more, the admins are basically agreeing going "fuck the devs we would switch off if we could", after everything the devs did to placate them, offering to pay for server hosting, putting them and not us on the reccomended server list, explicitly pinning posts asking people to go else where, and they're still shitting on them for "muh evil tankies!!!". The devs should have never listened to these whining liberals, and I think should maybe defederate from beehaw themselves like holy fuck you can't trust liberals for anything

Hey everyone, I've created this community to hopefully help facilitate the spread of socialist fanfiction!

I've been an avid reader of fanficiton since I was 13, but since becoming a socialist I've become more and more disappointed with how liberal the vast majority of fanfiction writing is (fiction in general, really). So, maybe by having a community dedicated to it here, we can combat some of that!

I've never moderated anything before, so any suggestions on better rules or events to run to grow the community are very welcome! Also, I'd like help designing or finding an appropriate icon and banner.

Sorry if this is a little spammy, I'd just like everyone to have the chance to see this!

 

Thanks admins, for keeping the most deranged anticommunists and others out of here, it's made being here an awesome experience <3

I’d like to hear thoughts from more informed comrades on this, is this real (and when will I get to see more billionaire executions if it is), or just more bullshit?

 

Watching heavenly delusion with my friends, one of the main characters is trans, transphobic "woke west is ruining Japan" weebs in shambles

I really hope beehaw is slow to block them, those shitposters are feral

edit: bad news, they say they're not even going to be federating at first and when they do it will probably just be with us :( I wanted to see the confusion from libs interacting with maniacs on that instance
