We are officially a left-unity community. Anarchists and Marxist-Leninists etc. all welcome, but we don't tolerate right-wing/liberal ideology that contributes to the suffering of the exploited workers of the world.
It's more so a place for leftists to hang out and chat and spread news/content. A bit of both ig.
The people calling us tankies and nazis simultaneously are mostly doing so out of a disingenuous liberal attempt to position anybody to the left of them as being on the right of them, while they are the truly enlightened ones. The shitposting is only ever a response to people who are being disingenuous with their arguments and refusing to have genuine discourse.
I guess I'm gonna hang out a lot with you guys, sounds like you're "the actual cool kids" while I'm just a .ml normie :'(
Also, the lemmyverse is a much happier place (for me at least) with you guys around!
we're glad to have you!
Hexbear's a years-old instance, we've developed a solid culture and genuinely care for one another, pseudoanonymity notwithstanding. We're good people and better posters imo
I'mma stick around and learn a lot (especially on how to pester and dunk on libs) ✨✨
Check out the News Megathread. There's a huge amount of analysis and discussion about current events in those threads, going back years and years. There's shitposts, too, but we've got a huge body of analysis backed up with the best sources we can find, often dealing with important local, national, and geopolitical issues from a very different perspective than major media outlets and western governments. It can give you a lot of ammo to back up your points in disscussions of current events. And even if you don't agree with some of it, you can look at the sources folks are pulling from and use those to test and reinforce your own positions.
I subscribed to most of your communities just to get more exposed to content from ML perspective. As much as I also love Lemmygrad, they don't (yet) have the sheer number of people. I want the few hours/week I spend on Lemmy to be both entertainment and enlightening, and from what I've seen the content you guys put up has plenty of both~
