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

You are being manipulated by your fascistic government, led by your fascist prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Almost 2.4 million inhabitants, half children, are incarcerated inside Gaza. At only 41 kilometers long, the Strip is among the most densely populated regions in the world.
Gaza is blockaded by land, sea, and air. No one and nothing enters or leaves, except by permission of the occupation.
Israel entirely controls access to clean water and electricity. Conditions are of abject deprivation, and have been described as like a concentration camp.
Everyone living in Gaza has lost multiple family members from bomb raids. The same population has been incarcerated for three generations, since the ethnic cleansing campaign called the Nakba, perpetrated in 1948.
Racist tropes about Palestinians are widespread and largely unquestioned within the culture of your apartheid state.
Humanitarian abuses have been extensively documented, perpetrated by your Israeli Defense Forces, and administrated by your Likud government, under leadership by your fascist prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu.
The settlements are condemned internationally as illegal actions for pushing the condition suffered by the Palestinian people into greater humiliation and deprivation.
It is beyond absurd, and a reflection of the depth of indoctrination you have endured, under the propaganda pervasive throughout your society, that you believe there is any validity for you to lament the lack of "working economy for citizens" of Gaza.
You have no understanding of the suffering in Gaza, and I believe you prefer not to learn.
