Dunking on Liberals from a leftist, anti-capitalist perspective.
This community has moved to !libjerk@anarchist.nexus.
Dems keep working with trump to approve his picks, but what they won't accept is that if you sit down at a table with nazis, the only thing that's changed is the number of nazis at the table. @_cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com
Rules:
- No bigotry of any kind (except towards liberalism).
- No liberals (unless you are a masochist and enjoy the abuse).
- Strictly no downvoting (downvoters may be community banned, 4 the lulz).
- Bernie Sanders is still a liberal.
- This is a genAI friendly instance, so no complaining about genAI content.
We allow posts about liberal behavior even off fedi, shitposts, and rational, leftist discussion.

I’ve completed turned off vote counts because of this. I just scroll lemmy with votes hidden now. I have to say it’s a very different way to approach social media. Can’t tell if I’ll stick to it but interesting experiment.
Yeah very fair. I have that a bit aswell. It kinda feels like I’m yelling into a void when I don’t get the vote feedback.
Slowly trying to find a way to use lemmy that doesn’t get me stuck in a debate with a lib or a tankie every second comment …
Glad you’ve worked it out. I should take inspiration:)
I don't think it's .world users. It's the red fasch. Try posting progressive/leftist comments in an .ml thread and get pounced on by people screeching about how their brand of imperialist, hyper masculine fashion, rugged indvividualist authoritarianism is acktually the best kind of communism.
I do, I do. I don't want to poke the hornet's nest or argue for no reason. It can be hard to log off sometimes when something so incredibly hypocritical gets posted.
In my experience with dealing with authoritarian or state communists, they act like their communism is the only communism. They believe that state violence is necessary to achieve freedom and equality, among other things, and that anybody who believes different is naive.
Yeah, new deal with chinese characteristics/gottasuckstalinsdicksohardimsafefromthepurges is cringe, but they've been pretty stable. The libs are changing.
