dear comrades living and dead, please help give me the self control not to try arguing with all the "Lemmy is anti human rights" takes polluting the fediverse rn 🙏
I deeply care about human rights
Must be one of the most nebulous and abstract things you can stand for. What rights? The right to die on the street? The right to monopoly?
The right to be airstriked by NATO peacekeepers, duh
outrage liberals are the worst
Just write one response and reuse it, and then don't engage further unless it's in good faith.
I wonder if it's struck them yet that, as their neoliberal platform fails, other platforms built on fundamentally better ideas and infrastructure are rising up. I wonder if this challenges their preconceived notions at all? Nah, it's just a bunch of tankies.
It is definitely inducing cognitive dissonance. The developers are simply are communists trying to collectivize social media, and that will live in their heads rent free as long as they stick around.
Most of these so called "libs" were probably just doing what they saw everyone else do. Now, "everyone else" means something different here. If I were them, I'd honestly pick up a book and skip the embarrassment. This is a learning opportunity.
Just you wait until US newscorps start advocating to ban the entirety of lemmy and its source code from the USA.
obviously the Chinese are making us all think for ourselves and talk amongst ourselves.. there could be no other answer
"China is a censorship dictatorship and we should ban all things that come from there to protect our free speech." liberals probably
That post on !196@lemmy.blahaj.zone got me fked up because one of the comments there was like “authoritarian communism” is an oxymoron actually 🤓 and another was like “Marxism is not materialism” and it had double digit upvotes.
Like jesus WHAT THE FUXK are you on about. Read Marx and Engels. Read Lenin.
It’s like arguing with toddlers.
Read Marx and Engels. Read Lenin.
Marx is a tankie, Engels is a tankie, Lenin is a tankie.
Everyone click on the All button and start participating in federation.
Worst thing that can happen is the liberals complain.
But if you're going to be participating on lemmy.ml please don't make the admins' job harder, respect the instance rules. They're already working overtime to handle the influx of new users across the software.
I’ve been browsing lemmygrad near daily for over a year now and had never clicked the All button lol there is a whole lot going on out there, fediverse is pretty cool
Wait until the liberals find out that free and open source decentralized networks like Lemmy align with the general direction of communism.
( At least, I assume it does. I may be very wrong. In which case, I apologize. )

This already happened and reading it was hilarious.
Man.. I haven't been on reddit in quite a while but I don't remember it being such a shitlibfest. It's really bad and it pretty well overran lemmy.ml immediately.
Reddit tends to ban commies. It's like a mini red scare: with the left removed, the right thrives.
It puts me in an odd spot because I care amd believe in Lemmy as a project and I want it to grow, but on the other hand it was kinda nice to not be called a fascist... because im a communist... because that somehow makes me the antithesis of communism
I think there will be an adjustment period, where the Reddit habits will continue to be exhibited. Most redditors have been heavily propagandized for years. Those that stick around and don't end up in defederated instances will eventually grow more and more deprogrammed.
There's currently a big push on reddit to keep the protesting communities away from a lemmy migration (downvotes, censored comments, highly upvtoed suggestions towards irrelevant alternatives that are owned by corporations and not part of the Fediverse). I suspect that the massive Western psyops mechanism is afraid to lose one of their most effective echo-chambers.
The only concern I have is that lemmy.ml is already leaning towards tone policing, which makes it somewhat susceptible to be taken over by the shitlibs and fascists.
They were in used that every time that they denounced our political-conscious content, reddit ultra-politicized mods acted in instants censoring and banning, but here there is not systematic persecution of ideas, at least in most of fediverse, so they have to cry a lot... Maybe in contemporary world liberalism is only a superficial denomination of anti-communism.
I had to remake an account on ml because I don't want to see nazi places and nazi comments. Nazi federations unfederating ml is free filter for me. c:
Lemmy.ml banned my account there lol. Why are they so concerned with a little bullying of liberals?
Lemmy is tone policed... apparently except when someone is calling us "red fash", that's not bannable.
You gotta get the normies on the network for the network effect to take off!
i hate to say it, but i don't want the network effect taking off. in fact, that's a sign it's time to leave. is it possible to ever just have a smallish community where real discussion and ideas can flourish without the rest of the US dragging everything down to the lowest common denominator?
Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.
A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities
