I unsubbed from the "MeanwhileOnGrad" comm because it's getting so repetitive. We get it, those instances are full of psychos who say psycho shit, so there's no point in doing anything else other than blocking or better yet defederating. PugJesus in this case is not much different than those hexbear crazies calling everyone they don't like "liberals". They just call anyone they don't like "tankies"

I'm using Blorp for my piefed and lemmy accounts and it's working pretty well.

There's no way this guy wrote "Fuck his prostate" with a straight face on his phone

"See! Told you it would fail!"

No war but class war

As an anarchist I find this authoritarian

Buddy this is an internet community not a nation-state 💀💀💀 Please touch some grass

A monarchist abusing his position of power.

Who. Would've. Thunk.

If you don’t mind, I’d love to chime in with my own perspective :)

My path to anarchist ideas was pretty organic. I grew up in a rural area, lots of farmers, my school was just a short walk away, and most of our food was locally grown or raised. It struck me that even if the government had suddenly disappeared, our community probably would have been okay. We already relied so much on each other.

I’m not here to tell you what to believe or what label to adopt. Over the past four years, I’ve done a lot of reading and reflecting myself, and what helped me the most was trying to apply different leftist ideas to the place I knew best, my own hometown. That process helped me figure out what might actually work for the people there and for me, that led to anarchism.

So I’d suggest doing something similar: take the ideas you’ve encountered from socialists, communists, anarchists, or whereever and ask yourself "If we did this and this, could this work?" "If we stopped using money in these areas and these areas, could that work?" Even just exploring things like reducing reliance on money in certain areas can be revealing. (It’s worth noting that many anarchist ideas hinge on an optimistic view of human nature, but that’s a whole other conversation.)

At the end of the day, if you’re trying to identify both an ideal society and a realistic path toward it, I think the key is understanding that socialism, whatever shape it takes, requires a culture built on cooperation. That has to come first.

I'd rather see em under a guillotine

It's no secret that anarchists are being silenced in China. A lot of it is underground and for good reason. You might have a tough time looking for these circles.

Yup, The Association of German National Jews or Verband nationaldeutscher Juden.
