I literally said this yesterday, Lemmygrad is the instance preventing fascists from invading Lemmy, and they will never forgive us for it.
Ah yes, very amusing that CIA-compatible people “on the left” and libertarian tech bros are allowed on places like Reddit and Marxist-Leninists aren’t, who could have predicted this?! How could it be that the people aligned with capital get ample platform everywhere?
Their “you use technology” thing is weird too. We’re not Amish. We just want to end the domination of the world by capital, not get rid of all capital goods.
I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that people can be so reflexively and unthinkingly wrong.
Smells like the classic:
anarchist technology
What are they talking about
I think they’re suggesting it’s defederated and not centralized
That’s just one aspect of the communication protocol though. What about admins, mods being able to censor content without any mechanism of accountability or direct democracy built-in? How is that anarchist?
Hah I’m not saying they’re right.
I like the comment in that thread from someone saying “I don’t like politics precisely because of polarization and extremists.” while having a Ukraine flag profile pic lol
In communist Beehaw, the unelected strong men admins censor political content, keeping their people from knowing what true freedom looks like. I once talked to a Beehaw user and they told me that the people in Beehaw don’t even know how to read news articles, they just believe whatever is written in the title of a post from their ruler-sanctioned media sources. The people of Beehaw yearn for freedom, if only we could break through their authoritarian governance and brainwashing.
lmao yeongmi park got memed so much I recognized the template from the first three words
I mean if anyone deserved to be nothing more than a joke its her
“Yes exactly, I call myself very left but the minute I tried /kbin a thread about china from lemmy.ml showed up and there full of Tianomon Square deniers I tried to engage but just after half an hour I was almost done with the whole reddit alternative and was on my way to delete my account.”
…Man can’t even spell ‘Tiananmen’ right and wants people to believe they are ‘very left’, and considers people who’ve actually seen the whole video ‘deniers’. Okay, friendo…
Uncritical support for liberals deleting theit accounts at the first quiver of cognitive dissonance.
Big “how do you do, fellow leftists” vibe from that comment. I mean what’s more leftist than repeating CIA propaganda about a failed color revolution attempt?
