Lemmy is a community of communism and Marxism–Leninism enthusiasts, isn’t it? :D

    Beehaw added !socialism@beehaw.org if you want to talk about leftist topics, but the rules there are that you have to be nice to everybody. It is basically the opposite of the tenor of r/socialism, so take that under advisement.

    I say this as a passive observer who has no skin in the game one way or another, I’m not a socialist.

      It’s highly hypocritical to advocate for socialism while blocking Lemmygrad.

        Did they block Lemmygrad? I thought they just blocked Lemmy.ml and Lemmy.world. you may be right though.

        I wouldn’t try to make too much sense out of Beehaw’s decisions. I don’t quite understand what they’re going for. Regardless of whether or not they blocked Lemmygrad, I agree with you that there’s a contradiction inherent in the whole idea of having a community about socialism (a topic about overthrowing the current political/economic order) but saying to “be nice” lol

        MLs are not the only socialists, much to their dismay. I will never support anyone in any capacity who denies human suffering, I will never support anyone who believes that inflicting pain and suffering on innocent working class people is ever justified.

          I’ve been reading them for a while, and I’ve never heard anything like that. Your account is only 8 days old, so I don’t think you have much of an idea about what they’re talking about. You’re probably just making things up.
