An international (English speaking) socialist Lemmy community free of the “ML” influence of instances like lemmy.ml and lemmygrad. This is a place for undogmatic shitposting and memes from a progressive, anti-capitalist and truly anti-imperialist perspective, regardless of specific ideology.

Rules:
Be a decent person.
No racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, zionism/nazism, and so on.

Please tell me this isn't AI...?

~~edit: given that the legs under the tables line up well, and the oar handles are oriented correctly, I think it's not.~~

Just going in circles, like one of those fancy restaurants at the top of a skyscraper.

Hmm, who's holding the leftmost oar, the one pointing towards us, so to speak?

And the boat is sailing in circles, too!

But if one of the rowers were to put a hole in the bottom of the boat........

Then they'd be the first to die while the nobles make it off on rafts. Now if all the workers stopped rowing they could throw everyone else overboard.

The workers are chained down, they will first need to break the chains of authority on themselves if they wish to make a move on the rulers.

Unfortunately, they have liferafts up on deck. And they don't share.
