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!

Perhaps you aren’t naive, but rather willing to risk being burnt, in trade for a life of trust.

Is it actually the case you got blindsided, or did you consider the betrayal as a possible outcome but decided to proceed anyway, and instead of explaining to people that you were open to the risk, did you just decide it was easier to play-act as a naive person?
