Leftism

Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!
Rules:
- Absolutely no fascism, right wing extremism, genocide denial, etc.
- Unconditional support of authoritarians will not be tolerated
- Good faith discussion about ideologies is encouraged, but no sectarianism
- No brocialism/sexism
- No ableism
- No TERFs/ anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric
- No racism
- No trolling
- No insults, dunking, or personal attacks
- No posting of misinformation, disinformation, or fake news
- Mods have final say
Posting Expectations:
- Comics/memes/shitposts/propaganda are only allowed on weekends
- Try to avoid liberalism unless discussing electoral politics. Even then, try to focus on tactical agreement towards leftist goals
- Only one meta post seeking consensus per person per day
- Posts about a particular ideology are ok, but remember the rules above
- Remember that there is no “right way” to implement leftist theory. This rule does not prevent academic criticism.
- Try to avoid extremely sensitive topics unless approaching them with appropriate care for intersectionality. Use your best judgement, and be prepared to provide respectable sources when having these discussions. Wikipedia is not an acceptable source in these cases.
- Post titles must be meaningful and relevant, except on weekends

Yes. For you.
I can no more save you from capitalism than I can save you from an abusive relationship.
The real tell is when I point it out and you get upset with me; classic response by the abused.
Are you intentionally trying to be off-putting?
Nope. Just comes naturally.
Well, as long as you recognize your abusive behavior and realize that it isn't desirable.
Abusive behavior? Really? Because I'm saying you're being abused. Fucking hell. Stay asleep.
Thank you for demonstrating my point.
Being annoyed with you isn't abusive.
I'm going to take a guess here that you're right wing ideologist.
😂 I'm a socialist you asshole. Just because you can't put together an argument and you are an asshole to people doesn't make me a right wing nutter.
You seem intent on being offended and attacking me while playing the victim.
I'm sure you understand the confusion if you spent as much time as I have discussing these things with right wing ideologists.
You certainly have a knack for being an insufferable ass.
You have offered zero constructive criticism but as if you already a convert I see no reason to converse with you further; now or ever in the future.
