What made you think of using drink making appliances specifically? Why didn't you for example use a different one, like a washing machine, a fridge or a microwave or even something else entirely?

It is impossible not to be authoritarian, if anything this case has been written about by Engels already. If anything this call to abolish all hierarchy immediately without any relation to material reality is bound to end up in complete and utter failure.

How does a revolutionary movement organize? How do we spread discipline amongst ourselves? How are we to know what to do? Where and when? How do we act when fascists take interest in destroying us? How do we organize local politics, then in a province and then nationally so that the revolution is protected from outside forces that wish to undermine it? These questions must be answered if we are to fight for communism.

Also! How does a stance on denying false accusations of genocide suddenly for some god forsaken reason make a person pro-genocide!? If anything on Lemmygrad you find people who are the first and most passionate at scrutinize genocides!

Next, Nutomic and Dessalines only control lemmy.ml. That's it. sh.itjust.works, beehaw.org, sopuli.xyz, lemmy.world and lemmygrad.ml are all independent from them! And in the world of AGPLv3 software it is impossible for a certain group to be a de-facto owner of a project. They may be the original creators, but the source code is out there for anyone and everyone to use, modify and share without end! That includes forking into and independent code base and making a lemmy alternative from itself. Lemmy isn't inherently Marxist, just because the devs are. Lemmygrad is, because that's what it was created for.

Come to Lemmygrad, we can teach you a thing or too. Just adhere to the rules.

The US was trying to "solve" Afghanistan through violent means which not only have failed for 20 years, but the conflict of today has been stoked even earlier by the US financing the current terrorists and calling them "anti-Soviet freedom fighters". So no, a right wing answer to the conflict has been proven by history to be utterly idiotic and only beneficial to american capital.

Holy crap the framework is amazing, but I'm still going to stick with my T400 for quite some time!

Yeah, sorry for that.

People sharing.

Whatever may it be: books, food, knowledge, experiences, feelings, opinions, hardships. Just about anything. Positive human interactions, that's what I like to see in this alienated age.

Hexbear would like a word with you

Stalin ate all the grain and paid the clouds not to rain.

And please don't forget that the tragedy, which was not an or orchestrated genocide, was the last of regular famines in these regions which includes more than just Ukraine.

Either way I've got work, so I'll just assume you don't and drop this 1h and 30min video by BadEmpanada on the matter. Even you decide to continue to disagree on the matter I urge you to watch for additonal context.

Edit: If you wanted to use some proper ammo, you could've cited post war deportations as those were a total shitshow.

Back in PRL times it was the danish who came to us for abortions. Kinda funny how shit the situation is for us now.

Cuba has the most progrssive family code in the world, that was voted in by a referendum.

DDR was a forefront for trans rights, which all have been regressed after the Berlin wall fell.

But because countries of yesteryear aren't holding up to your standards of today I don't see this as fair argumentation. Hell, afro-americans had very positive experiences when visiting the USSR, being treated like an equal human being for one. Not even talking about soviets pushing sex equality in every field of life. Things like these were very much unheard of in the US at the time.

One of the few things left over from socialist times for Poland and other countries is about a 50/50 split in sex participation in the sciences.

"Why are those ebil tankies the forefront of federation, this isn't adding up 😭😭😭"

It's funny that it's liberals who tend to block lemmygrad and not the other way around.
