Holy crap is that real?

Yup!

Well I found a fun new wallpaper, thanks!
He should frame it and put it on his office wall
I'd love to see it as the backdrop in the press office for any live event
And finish off each presser with the same pose
If he can get his hands on a copy, I hear it was quickly out of stock at newstands this morning. They're already up on eBay.
That's one way to sell papers, I guess!
God, how I wish that US Democrats were even half as absolutely based as the right wing makes them sound.
Amazing how they seemingly do not know what any of this means, as they're getting several symbols and ideologies/systems mixed up.
"Socialism = Communism" - The highly educated right.
social democracy = socialism = communism = USSR. Why do we even have some many different words?
Yeah, we should just, like, convert to 0 and 1, where 0 means no or bad, and 1 means yes or good, depending on the context.
It's to devalue the words themselves - if you do it fast enough the masses literally stop taking the concepts behind the words seriously. And stop talking about it. "Communism" is a great example of that.
And pre-cald-war's anti-communism propaganda (there still was anticommunist propaganda back then too) folk in the USA actually got educated (by their own independent citizens) what communism literally is, the meaning of the word, what it relates to and what it doesn't relate to (especially 'the political gov system').
I've noticed their president uses ~~"unconditional"~~ "unconstitutional" a lot (for everything against their agenda without any relation to the constitution or any explanation ofc).
Same thing.
they know. they are pandering to their audience.
If I ever become part of their target audience, somebody take me out back and put me out of my misery.
Just buy some Tide Pods. You'll know it's time when they start looking appetizing.
Sometimes the right does all the work of writing the satire for us
The Onion might as well pack up lmao
This year must have been really frustrating for those poor souls
I love how they put "The Red Apple" as though red isn't a natural apple colour.
I thought AAPL got new democratic leadership as all megacorps should.
Friendly reminder that the New York Post is a shit rag run by a shit family that prints shit articles read by shit people.
Thats what makes for the funny here
... I don't think I have ever seen the rightoids more triggered, shitting and pissing, crying and whining.
God damn.
Oh well, stay mad I guess.
Mamdani should troll them by instituting five year plans for the city’s development.
He already kinda' did - his plan for the minimum wage increase to $30/hr is a five year plan (supposed to fully be enacted by 2030)
Hats off to the graphic designer, that looks sick
The designer could be a secret socialist.
The designer mistakenly sent forward their personal fanfic project instead of what the boss asked for.
That just makes him look more badass
These people are so out of touch it's actually hilarious, for some reason they think that people still live in the cold war era, like throwing around some ancient language and random symbols should make the people afraid or something...fucken pathetic
like throwing around some ancient language and random symbols should make the people afraid or something
In my experience, it still does for conservatives and many born before the mid seventies. None of them can tell you why or even what any of the terms or symbols mean, but they've been told all their lives those things are bad and have never stopped to wonder why.
they think that people still live in the cold war era
Their target audience is boomers. Now if only they still had the Russophobia that they did back then…
At some point the smear campaigns go from frustrating to somehow funny.
"Ah yes, the "working people need to be able to afford housing and food and transportation" guy. He's the literal reincarnation of the entire Soviet Union. Don't ask us to explain how, something something socialism."
New York Post’s cover on Zohran Mamdani election sold out in NYC — and already being resold on e-Bay
We turned our pun-filled mayor Mamdani cover into commemorative merch
As a New Yorker, I urge you all to remember this is what lies below the surface of the NY post editorial staff.
Never, ever trust this rag I wouldn't even use as bird cage paper, as a source for any facts.
It goes beyond bias, they warp the truth in sometimes subtle, sometimes overt ways.
Fuck you, NY Pest
I can’t wait for him to change the name to Antifa Jihad City
Me too! Let's make some Conservatives cry!
“TNE YAED ARRLE” (Тне Яеd Аррlе) goes hard
Ah yes, the yaed apple
I'm printing this and hanging it on my wall.
vibes
The man had more detailed plans than I ever saw from Trump. From any presidential candidate, honestly. This just feels like the standard right-wing willful ignorance.
That's how his character on South Park should look.
The owner of the New York Post is News Corp, the media conglomerate founded by Rupert Murdoch. Murdoch first bought the paper in 1976, then repurchased it in 1993 after a brief sale.
Fucking rag
Man, those people have serious issues.
They're so fucking hurt XD. It's literally not going to affect 99% of the people who see this headline
An international (English speaking) socialist Lemmy community free of the "ML" influence of instances like lemmy.ml and lemmygrad. This is a place for undogmatic shitposting and memes from a progressive, anti-capitalist and truly anti-imperialist perspective, regardless of specific ideology.
Agitprop (I.E. everything that would be more fitting on a poster than a meme) goes here.
Serious posts, news, and discussion 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!
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] Use alt text or image descriptions to allow greater accessibility
(Please take a look at our wiki page for the guidelines on how to actually write alternative text!)
We require 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
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" seen on lemmygrad and more specifically GenZedong (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.
(if you are reading the rules to apply for modding this community, mention "Mantic Minotaur" when answering question 2)
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.
