The spectre of communism is haunting the Fediverse

Damn, this is morbid
"purity testing" more like them gaslighting people into believing that they are left wing and getting defensive when they are proved not to be
Google is trying to kill it
Sounds like Voldermor was inspired by her own persona
Democrats are right wing.
As a short black man, I have experienced all levels imaginable of disrespect and trauma, so I don't think that I want to have to tell to my kid. "Yeah, I hated my life, but I am bringing you here to deal with all these crackers so maybe your generation can keep making things better."
Also, yeah, I don't have the money for them.
I don’t want to give any of my info to Google though
Washington owned slaves. He was not some moral high ground individual. The only reason why they even got independence from Britain was that Britain wanted to stop the expansion of the territory and the people in the colonies wanted to continue it and kill all the natives.
Edit:
In 1784, Washington paid unnamed “Negroes” for nine teeth. We don’t know the precise circumstances, says Van Horn: “The president’s decision to pay his slaves for their teeth may have been a recognition on his part that teeth were something sacrosanct and personal.” On the other hand, being enslaved meant that any economic exchange was inherently not fair.
He literally took advantage of enslaved people to get their teeth and you consider it as just “bought”. Top tier cracker mindset. I guess that to you it was also fair for him to own his slaves because he “bought” them.
The Democrats are a right wing party

"If my country is evil while calling itself the leader of the free world, other countries must be super evil"
He increased the funding of cops and send trillions to wars abroad
Individuals don’t exist in a vacuum though. Ideologies and systems shape behavior by setting the rules of the game and defining what gets rewarded or punished. Under capitalism, exploitation, profit-over-people, and competition are incentivized, so it does cause patterns of harm — not just isolated bad actors. That’s why we see consistent violence, poverty, and dispossession under capitalism across the globe. It’s not random individuals — it’s a system rewarding destructive behavior.
I literally know undocumented immigrants that wanted other undocumented immigrants to be caught by ICE so there is more jobs left for them and rent prices go down for them, according to what they said. Individualism has made people cut throat af.
Dialectical materialism -> Scientific materialism to distinguish it from the common usage of the world "materialism"
imperialism is the highest stage of capitalism
