I'm trans and not a fan of what nutomic has said either, but have had no issues with any of the other admins. I certainly haven't seen those comments reflect in how they moderate, I even got made a mod here because I was calling out and reporting transphobia.

If he says anything like that in a comm I control I'll be banning him myself though.

You’re from .ml

I'm an anarchist, I have done anarchist organizing for years.

why be bringing mental capacity into this?

I'm definitely biased as someone living in US though. The country I'm living in is participating in a genocide so I'm going to be a lot more concerned about that.

China has plenty of issues without needing to go through a German fundamentalist on a "mission from god" against China.

I have literally never run into anyone in real life who says any of these as any form of communist, other than 'communist' parties full of pensioners or maga communists.

  • LGBTQ+ identities are bourgeois degeneracy
  • Trans people are a capitalist invention to divide workers
  • Nazis have a point when it comes to nationalism
  • Assad and Putin are leftists
  • Killing millions of people is necessary for a better world
  • The socialist state must uphold “traditional values”
  • “Socialist” police are a good thing because they don’t serve capital, they serve the people
  • The only valid leftist theory is the one that argues Marxism-Leninism is correct
  • Stalin exclusively killed Nazis

I have run into people saying things like this:

  • Anarchism has never been tried successfully

  • Anarchists are all children who don’t know better

and I'll push back on it, but it's not a monolith, Marxists with decent enough social skills to not insult allies do exist

Animal farm is propaganda, by a social democrat with a clear agenda.

Believe it or not, these are almost never relevant to actual organizing work:

spoiler

  • China is communist or will be communist by 2050
  • Ukraine is a Nazi state who deserves to be invaded
  • Russia taking children from Ukraine and relocating them is just them being nice and removing them out of the warzone
  • States are 100% necessary for the development of socialism

this is terminally online behavior. Marxists I've run into in actual organizing work are generally pretty chill and more interested in the work than trying to tell me I have the wrong opinion.

Anyone complaining about "tankies" when there's actual Nazis around is doing their work for them.

Downvoted comments being auto-hidden seems like a pretty deliberate choice to censor dissident speech on the anti-communist lemmy spinoff.

Weird how USAID funding got cut and suddenly this guy had to shut his channel down because it wasn't making money.

The gas price comment you made was just silly and you got pushback on it, the horror.

The only time you got one of your posts removed it was because it was nonsense blaming Putin for Israels US-backed genocide campaign in an unrelated thread.

ooo anticommunist Lemmy looking lit

If there's evidence that isn't entirely filtered through one German fundamentalist who doesn't even speak the language I'll consider it.

Absolutely wild to still be pushing this narrative from the first Trump admin when Gaza is getting leveled and starved en masse though.

well I'm just going to continuing hanging out at the bad kids table since there's a ton of trans people on hexbear.

The nice thing about .ml is I get to be federated with both blahaj and hexbear, I'm a centrist like that.

my emotions? like April weather catgirl-sorry

It's anecdotal but my mood regulation got way better when I switched from pills to weekly shots, just more consistent and predictable hormone levels
