I see it got deleted. Ho Chi Minh should have known better and organize Vietnam's liberation from colonialism through confederated and horizontally-organized municipal communes, I suppose.

"In lemmygrad they only post pictures of the supreme leader and you are forced to upvote them all and if you don't do it then the mods execute you and then they eat your body before the rats do it so they won't starve".

No need to resort to suppositions; just look at Thälmann.

The term of "red fascist" is not only (purposefully) insulting to the memory of actual MLs who came under repression and execution from the hands of fascists (and ignoring that in many fascist states they were the forefront of resistance against it, see: the PCE under francoist Spain), but also dangerous as it blurs fascism as a word with a meaning, making actual fascism harder to identify and, thus, to combat.

“i ain’t reading all that tankie shit”

"The joke is on you, as you see, I am illiterate".

Just do not bother getting angry over this type of stuff. Post it nonetheless because someone may stumble upon it and actually read it or engage in a meaningful (even if not always well-intended) conversation about it, but the snarky replies are best ignored as they add nothing of value.

Thinks that Reddit sucks

Moves to a new website

Brings into the new website the same mental diarrhea fuelled with empty copy-paste arguments for which Reddit is known to suck

If you want to behave like a redditor, go back to reddit.

I don't need to learn anything else in this world. I've got it pretty well wraped.

If they start answering “How do I control an ESCPOS receipt printer through Javascript?” with “Nuke Kyiv”, then maybe do so [defederate].

New response just dropped.

Animal farm

I'll tell 'ya hwhat: be very wary of absolutely any writer that primarily uses fiction to spread their political views. The main exponents of this are George Orwell and Ayn Rand, and that's all you should need to know to understand.

By the way, it seems that moderators in 196 are deleting those comments from lemmygrad posters in a way that appear as visible while seen from lemmygrad while they appear as deleted by mods from any other instances (or so I suppose, I do not know very well how does Lemmy work). This is happening even if there is no breaking of rules in sight.

There are communists in Sweden. Good and honest people. So there are in Norway, Finland, Canada and the USA; in Belgium, the UK, Denmark and the Netherlands too.

Cuba: starts a countrywide voting referendum for the entire island to decide to push LGBTQ rights further than the US and many EU countries.
