Where did you get that feeling with your 2 day old account? O.o
You made me curious to go and see what triggered this—dude got one downvote on a comment
And right before that, they claimed some horseshoe bullshit.
First, communism is a nebulous term that is used a lot of different ways by lots of different people. So I don’t think it’s meaningful to condemn or endorse without first defining what you mean. I would encourage you to be more specific about the ideology or political faction you are describing and you might get more support.
Second, don’t confuse Lemmy.ml with the rest of Lemmy. That place is weird and everyone who’s not a bootlicker gets banned, so it’s a very “special” group of people.
Usually people dislike the authoritarian communists.
They don’t necessarily even hate communism. They hate the people that call themselves communist.
Yes, I’m talking about .lm and hexbear
Yeah that’s what I was alluding to. Maybe I should have been a little more explicit but I think there’s a broader point here about how nebulous and contentious terms like this divide people unknowingly, when they may not even disagree on the underlying issues.
For example, anarchocommunists might feel criticized by this post, but I doubt that’s who OP had in mind.
Hmmmm we really need to create a capitalismvsocialism community here so that there can be more discussion
But I fear the hexbear broskis will brigade it with spam images 😅
I can’t seem to find how to create a community with the app. I guess I need to log in via computer
Edit: aight, created it… Time for me to provide free labour and be an entrepreneur 🤨 best of both worlds
You could create it on an instance not federated with them (mine isn’t so I don’t have to deal with their antics). Where did you make it? I’ll check it out I guess.
Lemm.ee (capitalismvsocialism)
I want them to be federated. They are more than welcome to share their opinions. I just don’t want them to censor anything.
I’ll never censor an opinion.
Capitalism bad
Socialism good
communism is bad for capitalism.
Anarchism is bad for authoritarianism
Authoritarianism is bad for anarchism
I wonder if the people down voting this understand the irony…
Saying something stupid on purpose and getting flack for it is “irony” now?
I downvote because it’s low quality engagement.
I genuinely don’t understand. Can you explain it to me ?
The meme is that saying communism is bad will get you downvoted.
The meme is basically saying that communism is bad.
The post is getting downvoted.
It’s ironic
I don’t get it. It’s like kicking the hornet nest and saying getting stung is ironic.
I downvoted it because they got the colour of the arrow wrong.
Ahahahhahaha ah, yeah, that’s basically my experience on this platform
Lemmy W
LOL I had similar experience when I responded to this post https://lemm.ee/post/61781690 saying that it is the same thing, just wrapped differently.
The same people who pop sieg heils and then cry about nuance and squeal about unfair labels think that everything to the left of Bill Maher is a communist.
