Beat me to it. First thing I thought reading this list.

Idk still a pretty good band name lol

While I think that’s inevitably true for some, I also think that sentiment gets exaggerated/overblown for others. Tankies are definitely prevalent, but there are also a lot of non tankie communists, and communists who will readily admit the failings of the dictators claiming to be communists throughout history. Genocide is an important issue for many of them, and is what pushed them away from Democrats most recently

Either way though, im not trying to argue any of these are morally correct or better than any other viewpoint. But I do think it’s undeniable that the left needs more unification globally if there is to be any meaningful resistance against the rise of fascism, and we have more in common with each other than we do with any of the oppressors in government now or the Nazis who support them

That’s pretty much it, yeah. It’s worth noting, there is a lot of animosity on here, particularly from .world, for .ml and .hexbear instances. Both are heavily communist, far left communities, and get a bad rep because they are known for not accommodating liberal or other not as left viewpoints. This was particularly heated around the election with disagreements about voting for liberals vs protest voting.

Fwiw I’m a strong believer if we are to organize against literal fascism we will need the liberal and the farther left to find enough common ground to work together. It’s a…work in progress on here.

Meta has been quite naughty indeed

Maybe a helpful starting point, if this is a real question, is for you to define what it is you mean by Marxism and what you find unethical about it more specifically. I’m asking the ideology as a whole, not a specific instance or country that claims to have it. For example I don’t think all marxists would be in agreement about if China’s government is a good representation of marxism (even if they call themselves communists).

I appreciate your dedication

I mean the woman posting there identifies herself as a follower, seems on brand for the platform

The joke there is that Elon is functionally the real president, since Trump is bought and paid for by him

I’m always a bit dumbfounded how many people are apparently fine with this sort of thing. I wish this was obviously a death sentence or pr nightmare for the service but in practice it must not be for a lot of people, enough to make it worth attempting.

I’m guessing there is a decent amount of overlap between the demographic that denies climate science and the demographic that denies medical science (antivaxx, the former anti-mask mandate group, etc)

“interesting” is certainly one word for it

I would be more sympathetic to this if they actually maintained their grid. It’s been shown time and time again that the company doesn’t replace parts that badly need it while paying their c suite enormous bonuses. I have no sympathy for this situation whatsoever

I’m not better than that. I find it at least mildly therapeutic , and damned if I don’t need the little things right now

Luigi’s Mansione

This is honestly just as good as the original post

User name checks out

You can trust her she is a professional smoker. Kid is doomed

What if they were 9 inch nails instead? I’ve heard people like them

At the very, very least, they are guilty of lopsided financial support and advertising dollars behind each candidate. The rest is largely supposition, though certainly COULD be true. Sometimes it’s easier to accept that than that the other voters are dumb. I have no idea which is actually true
