If you're feeling left out it's probably because you defend billionaires who would mince you into fertilizer : memes

Wow, this one touched some nerves.

I’d recommend posting a tangentially political meme at some point on Lemmy.

The amount of people who will come out of the woodwork to tell you ‘don’t post this’ and ‘don’t make things political’ will really be eye opening.

People don’t want to address systemic issues and think not talking about them is a viable solution.

Just making comments about rich people and their taxes seems to do the same thing here.

Don't even have to go THAT far, I get called a commie for saying a 40 hour work week should provide basic shelter these days. 🤷

If we want to live in boring reality, it doesn't happen a LOT but way more than it should.

Are you though?

Do you own the means of production and employ people to operate it, paying them a fraction of the value their labor produces?

Are you able to live comfortably without working for the foreseeable future? Do you exert outsized control over municipal, regional and state government far beyond your “vote” if you live in a place that claims to be a democracy? Does that control come from your power over the means of production that you control?

Supporting a society controlled by the people described above does not make you a capitalist, being one of the people described above does.

If you support capitalism, then yes, you defend billionaires.

Everyone time something controversial is posted, damn I missed out on all the discussion because Blahaj.zone defederated all these capitalist losers so I can just think about being trans and cracking jokes.

[-] Custoslibera@lemmy.world 31 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Honestly if this meme passes for controversial then the world has gotten a whole lot more lame.

These capitalist and billionaire cocksuckers sure love socialism when they socialise their losses and fucking take our tax payer money to bail themselves out. if you're working class and don't support socialism, you should look into it more. Propaganda from these blood sucking billionaire ghouls have made most of us blind to the better life socialism can offer us.

[-] OurToothbrush@lemmy.ml 16 points 1 year ago

That isnt socialism, thats the capitalist state doing its job of protecting capital. Socialism is when the proletariat own the means of production.

Capitalists need workers to oppress. Without them, they would have nothing to give them a feeling of superiority. Mincing people into fertilizer would surely be a fun pastime for the rich, but it's hardly a sustainable hobby

Never mind that not a single one of them pipes up when some lazy fascist bullshit gets posted here.

Only when it's left of like 1990s Biden then they all lose their fuckin minds.

Someone creating a specific community doesn't add rules to existing general communities. You should start an apolitical memes community!

[-] Facebones@reddthat.com 17 points 1 year ago

What? Using lemmy as intended and finding a community that fits my needs or starting my own?!

Then how will I inflict my will on all the people in existing communities as is my real intent?!

My dude. The capitalists are not the people who made those devices. Workers made those things.

It was made by inventors and workers. The capitalists own the company. They don't create.

You are not a capitalist.

So everybody on Lemmy is non-capitalist is what you're saying?

[-] Custoslibera@lemmy.world 27 points 1 year ago

A large proportion of Lemmy are not pro-capitalist, yes.

[-] Flumsy@feddit.de 21 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Thats still very much generalizing. What this meme essentially says is that if you're a capitalist, you're not part of Lemmy.

On a seperate note, you cant possibly know how many people on Lemmy actually support capitalism or not. It has a left tendency, yes, but I bet the majority of Lemmx users do support caputalidm in some shape or form.

[-] OurToothbrush@lemmy.ml 16 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Does anyone here own capital? As in being haut bourgeoisie? Probably not.

If you support capitalism and you're not a capitalist you're just a bootlicker.
