I maybe don't get the meme, but why would western communists like modern russia? the most supporters of russia I know irl are far right

[-] frezik@midwest.social 56 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

It's not a very good label for this. There's a certain subsection of the left that sees anti-Americanism as an ideology, and therefore any state that opposes America is categorically good.

They're not common, and they tend to overlap with the sort who's mom found their weed stash and made them throw it away. Lacking weed, they turn to making a lot of loud noises on Lemmy.

They're not common, but annoyingly a shockingly large number of them use Lemmy.

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 12 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Lemmy exists because of them. Dessalines and crew didn't make Reddit for Leftists as a mere coincidence after r/ChapoTrapHouse got banned.

[-] mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 months ago

Didn't most of r/ChapoTrapHouse end up on hexbear.com instead of lemmy.ml? Or was it just the 12-14 year olds on that sub that ended up on hexbear?

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@literature.cafe 3 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Hexbear is more sane than it seems but their loudest voices are... Quite loud. Generally because of the tools they had that other instances don't and just come off as annoying to anyone outside of the community.

The problem with judging where the Chapo diaspora ended up is that while Hexbear started from the sub ban it has become a fairly different community and there's also quite a lot of shared users between Lemmy.ml, Lemmygrad, and Hexbear, and then there's the fact that the exit of the radical left from Reddit was about more than Chapo alone.

Yeah, autocorrect is a bitch. Makes all of us look like fools. Especially if one types with swipe.

Original/uncorrected: original/included: Yeah, autocorrect is a bitch. Makes all of us look like folks. Especially of I've types with swipe.

If I didn't go back and edit every mistake autocorre CC t made, none of my comments would ever be legible

My favorite thing is when my thumb goes too far down while I'm typing "because," and it thinks I wanted to say "be a use"

[-] Asafum@feddit.nl 3 points 3 months ago

Autocorrect is the most arrogant technology I've ever had the misfortune of dealing with...

It's one thing to correct spelling, but this mothefucker completely disregards correct words in place of what it thinks I wanted to say....

No motherfucker I said what I wanted to say!

Cat cat cat cat cat cat cat cat cast!

Hi, western communist here. Russia is a christo-fascist state but some fellow commies have accepted the position that any faction against US global dominance is one worth supporting regardless of their actual policies and humanity. The idea being that the #1 goal should be the distruction of the hegemony that has oppressed many of the worlds nations in the hopes that communism can rise out of them now that they would be free to make that choice.

Most communists in the West are not like this. This is a specific subsection of communists who want to knowingly support christo-fascists. Most western communists fucking hate Russia.

Which is basically ' I'm only pretending to be an asshole' aka 'it's just a prank bro'

Anyone claiming to be fucking things up because they belive it'll magically fix everything is a liar and an idiot.

[-] psmgx@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago

It's literally foreign propaganda aimed at the mid-wit segment; a way to lever the vaguely leftwing-but-angry via formal sounding philosophy.

It's also why you really only find it discussed on Lemmy or 8chan, etc.

[-] FlorianSimon@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 months ago

To be clear: I'm not defending them.

Accelerationists are just Socialists who accept reality.

[-] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 9 points 3 months ago

Accelerationists are socialists who think it's fine if a ton of gay people are killed right now, as long as it means there's a chance they won't be later

Fuck accelerationists

[-] Vendetta9076@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 months ago

I used to be an accelerationist when I was 14 cause I hated everyone and everything and wanted all the people around me to be as depressed as I was. Then I went to therapy.

A community for your defence shitposting needs

Rules

1. Be niceDo not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.

2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes

If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Random twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Low Hanging Fruit thread.

3. Content must be relevant

Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.

4. No racism / hatespeech

No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.

5. No politics

We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.

6. No seriousposting

We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.

7. No classified material

Classified information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.

8. Source artwork

If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.

9. No low-effort posts

No egregiously low effort posts. These include Social media screenshots with a title punchline / no punchline, recent (after the start of the Ukraine War) reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Low effort thread instead.

10. Don't get us banned

No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
