This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

This community is for posts about Marxism and geopolitics (including shitposts to some extent). Serious posts can be posted here or in /c/GenZhou. Reactionary or ultra-leftist cringe posts belong in /c/shitreactionariessay or /c/shitultrassay respectively.

We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information. If you believe the server may be down, check the status on status.elara.ws.

Why do people still continue to use this shit site and then act surprised when this happens?

Got permabanned over a year ago for telling Jordan Peterson to blow his brains out and my life has genuinely improved

If only he took your advice. More lives would be improved worldwide as a result.

Every time I remember he exists I mourn that he didn’t perish in Russia.

I got permabanned from pre-Elon Twitter for saying Donald Trump Junior should live up to JFK Junior's legacy and get in a small plane.

Yet people still tell me that Twitter was a leftist cesspool before Elon bought it.

People be addicted. I've seen some argue that Twitter is a necessity. Any excuse to stay on it.

[–] QueerCommie@lemmygrad.ml 42 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I was addicted Reddit. I left after the gzd purge, and looking back it’s not at all appealing.

Like it's not rose-tinted glasses right? It's legitimately gotten worse (more ads as posts, 'unapproved subreddits' needing an account??, etc) right?

[–] QueerCommie@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 10 months ago

I think after taking breaks from some things that weren't great in the first place they lose their appeal, but yeah theyre getting worse too

[–] KrupskayaPraxis@lemmygrad.ml 16 points 10 months ago

Yup, in a just world, Twitter is blocked/banned

[–] SpaceDogs@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 10 months ago

I personally use it because of how many comrades I follow, I wish they were on here but it is what it is. I assume they’re on Twitter because they don’t know of any alternative and the wide reach they can have.

I use it for some of my other more mundane interests still (music and cooking stuff predominantly), but not politics. Trying to be a leftist on twitter is a special kind of futile. I don't actually post much of anything on it, but there are some good recipe and music resources I keep an eye on from time to time, it remains decent for that.
