I normally don't mind political memes, but I draw the line at genocide denial and whitewashing history. The mods there are complacent.
I recommend other memers who feel similarly to place their activity in other meme pages around the fediverse.
@PugJesus me too. If there's on other servers I go there. lemmygrad and lemmy.ml are servers owned by the same people who created Lemmy itself. When you get your first ban over practically noyhing (as I was in the past) this means that this is the server's policy.
(And yes, Lemmy creators are hardcore commies, but they candy wrap their server as being something general, while supressing any opinion that doesn't fit their tankie narrative)
I really do not mind other points of view, but as far as politics go when you choose one (form of government) over another and it becomes your whole persona, then (IMO) you are the product of that form of governments propaganda...and a weak minded diaper filled silly person.
Can someone fill me in? I just scrolled their top posts from today and everything looked normal and non genocide denialist.
A bunch of fascists are pretending discussing non capitalist ways of civilization are stalinist propaganda.
I was about to mark you down as a tanky but I scrolled through the first two pages in my browser without being signed in and didn't find any meme that was in any way related to Stalin or bolshevism (the closed quoted Marx).
Even though I wouldn't use the loaded term fascists, unless convinced otherwise I don't see Stalin apologists.
Nobody is going to take us leftist seriously with these mofos being so historically illiterate and apologist to mass murderers. Why do ya'll have to circlejerk same dead men all the time, can't ya'll like develop nuanced critique of current technological capitalist system on ya'll own?
I generally align with the left on most issues, and seeing the extremist propaganda all over the fediverse has without question pushed me towards the right.
I see why people say Hexbear is a bunch of right wingers masquerading as leftists.
Yeah, for some I might be hardcore leftist radical, and generally hold many anticapitalist, anticonsumerism sentiments. However reading opinions of these people, I can't see how world order they are proposing would be any better for anyone, except for those on the top, just like we have now. I also hate the assumption that communist society would be inherently more ecological than capitalist one, or more eqalitarian, like these people seem to think.
Reading pro soviet stuff is also infuriating for me as someone living in Finland, usually shit takes that totally oversimplify history of my country. Same thing with anti NATO stuff, I am not generally too fond of NATO but I am still OK with Finland joining cause, uuum have you notice there is fascist country right next to us that seems to have no problem attacking neighbouring countries, that are not in NATO.
Unfortunately this kind of nuance is impossible to these chronically online people, who just make up shit to justify their agenda. They just think we will have leftist revolution and then everything will be alright, instead of considering for one second how all this would play out in real life.
What Stalin apologist memes? I’m not seeing them. Maybe they’re being posted by someone I’ve already blocked?
A lot of the post come from lemmygrad and hexbears posters, which are blocked by many instances, thus not visible to everyone. As a kbin user, I see them frequently.
Lemmy ml is communist and should be avoided if possible. I have seen plenty of comments on other communities that complain of "pro capitalist ideas".
Complicit, more like
I've said it a while ago, memes here are better than at lemmy.ml or lemmy.world
I don't think I'll ever not upvote a "Capitalism bad" post. Keep'em coming!
Denying atrocities isn't the big anti-capitalist sell you think it is.
What?
This isn't about "capitalism bad" in the slightest.
