I’m in my early 20s 💀

Do you disconnect your EOL machines from the internet then?

Bc using an OS that doesn’t get security updates is just asking for trouble, especially if you connect it to the internet

I just looove how ppl believe that switching from one VC-funded centralised corpo platform to another VC-funded (slitghly less) centralised corpo platform is a good thing /s

Just because it’s (partially) OSS doesn’t make it good. The corp still hold all the power and might sell out, but at least they got free volunteers to program for them so the C-level could get more money!

(Now don’t tell me that Bluesky is “federated”. They still hold all the power over site rules and moderation. The only little concession you get is that you are allowed to host your own data)

Apparently virtue signaling about pseudofederation is enough for libs to “get hope for the future of the internet” while they happily lick the boot of yet another centralized “trust me bro this isn’t going to eshittify itself, not this time” corp

nothing in particular, I was just taken by surprise that a Roblox meme was in my feed lol

This is the first time I’ve seen a Roblox meme template 💀💀

I just meant to add to your post, not dispute it. It just reminded of utopian solarpunk idealism that has no meaningful longterm vision despite vibes. Hence my perceived harshness

also the second part of my comment should make it clear that I think of community as being vitally important

Your community won’t stop global capitalism. Toppling your reactionary governments and striving for internationalist socialism, however, will.

Although community care and help is an important cornerstone of building dual power!

To me the mirrored version just looks wrong

like you don’t mirror or otherwise mutilate well-established meme templates

it’s like an unspoken rules of the internet

You see wild shit on lemmy .world

““rare””

you mean common symptom of capitalism :p

Bunny joined the SRA and local socialist/communist party/org

be more like bunny!

It is semantics, I agree. But tainted semantics and objectively wrong.

You could instead say “communist-led country”, “socialist country”.

The mainstream usage doesn’t understand the nuance you mentioned btw

It’s such a common term of capitalist propaganda…

This is a leftist community just fyi

You can look up the answer to your question by yourself: leftist theory, often in the form of books (or even just watching video essays, listening to podcasts etc. etc.)

You can start over on here https://www.marxists.org/

One could argue that there are too many different socialist approaches to revolution or rather that it’s not all that easy finding the correct one to your situation

If you had made any honest attempt to look into socialist politics, you’d know that there are a lot of actionable ideas there

And unironically using it shows every leftist that you have no idea about socialist politics 💀💀

and even if they did get in power, they’d still support NATO and imperialism in general, still support capitalist exploitation, and still would only pay lip service to or fight symptoms of systemic issues instead of ripping the cause that is capitalism out by it’s root

my sibling in Christ, it’s still the same topic of Democrats having done this to themselves by catering more and more to “moderate Republicans” 💀💀

who would have thought that fucking the average working population and literally funding and arming genocide would make you unpopular with reasonable people, while the crazy ones would still vote for the more consequent carrying out of those policies

Almost as if they are doing it on purpose and are just the more culturally liberal of the two Wall Street parties… 🤔🤔

It has always been a distraction. You always have only been able to choose between different representatives of capital

bourgeois “democracy” is just a distraction to legitimise the dictatorship of capital
