The nazis famously sent unionizers and socialists to the camps. They even started an anti communist pact.

Fascists combine socialist ideas with racism and nationalism

They really don't. They just steal some of our rhetoric

Deeply tragic

Smart lights did wonders for me! Specifically having them slowly turn on to wake me up without alarms has been very nice. Provided I went to bed early enough it makes waking up very gentle and automatic. I only still use alarms just in case the light somehow doesn't wake me

Edit: ah, but that might not help with falling asleep, but might help you maintain your schedule in the long run. Having automation turn your lights off when you're supposed to go to sleep might do something, so long as you are also good at not looking at bright screens prior to going to bed.

haha, I love this. Would these flags work (on paper) in other areas in the US where pride flags are banned? Surely other states and cities can't ban city flags

Perhaps they should study all the anarchists your ideology has murdered, or all the revolutions it has ruined. Most of the regimes you support are the result of military coups of actual revolutions. Why support that? Why support the genocides or the oppression of workers? You don't support socialism, even if you call it that. How great that your ideology is successful. Still doesn't make it socialism.

Like imagine spending all this effort to try to escape oppression by... implementing more oppression.

You assume quite a lot and then start jabbering on about dictatorships. You're no better than fascists

Edit: why do you keep assuming I am against revolutions. Tankies are extremely disingenuous

[–] thief_of_names@beehaw.org 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (7 children)

How irrelevant. I'm talking about the end result of the revolution. You want to establish dictatorship. I want to establish worker democracy. I am a socialist. You are an authoritarian.

Edit: Never understood why tankies are so obsessed with quoting old dead authoritarians as if that somehow changes the present in some way. I don't let auths redefine my words. Also how about quoting the anarchists they are so fond of murdering instead.

Classic. Assuming I'm against a socialist revolution despite me never having made this claim.

Edit: To be clear I am very much in favor of socialist revolutions. Unlike a certain someone else I am however not in favor of military dictatorships which pretend to be socialist,

 

Hi! I remember there beings talks about beehaw planning to eventually move to a lemmy alternative with proper moderation tools, and was interested in following the development of this alternative, but I've forgotten the name of the project and can't find the specific posts about the subject. Anyone remember what I'm talking about?
