  • Why would any government ever do that? It benefits the ruling class to have illiterate people.

    “I love the poorly educated!” — Donald Trump

  • We’re defederated on Beehaw if you want to go there instead

  • Maybe they actually meant Hoxhaists like Wisconcom?

  • Any short coming of their favorite communist™ state isn’t an internal fault, but something the evil “west” has committed against them.

    To be fair, as you said, many of these problems are because of the International Community™. As for the rest, maybe all support should be critical, with increasingly less “critical” the less there is to criticize.

    Both tankies and Maga heads will preform mental gymnastics to try and rationalize why the gays can’t be married

    I haven’t seen anyone on Lemmygrad express that view, and I certainly support our LGBT comrades.

  • LGBT rights in China are admittedly at a frustratingly slow speed. Other comrades more familiar than I am with Chinese politics have suggested that the democratic centralism means that as they do advance, it will be collectively, and without a conservative backlash as we see in the US

  • Ah the classic pretending to invoke fallacies instead of just telling me what a “tankie” is supposed to be…

    If you really just mean “commie,” just say it

  • You’re welcome to read about socialism with Chinese characteristics if you’re interested.

  • Let me be blunt then. Has the People’s Republic of China achieved the final stage of communism? Of course not, that would be ridiculous.

    Are they trying to work towards communism and improve the conditions of their population? I would say so.

  • No, I genuinely don’t consider the US a democracy.

  • Spoiler alert: “Tankie” is just a buzzword like the conservative interpretation of “woke”

  • How do you define “democratic?” Would North Korea be democratic if there were two candidates instead, where they fought in a pretend culture war, but one of them really just deferred to the other if they won? North Korea has different parties too, you know.

  • Can you please explain how the Communist Party of China isn’t communist?

    Also, are you suggesting the US isn’t “authoritarian” or do you just mean countries you don’t like?

  • EDIT: Wait, by state do you mean American State?

    They mean a sovereign territory which you would probably call a country.

  • So you’re saying communists are fascists now?

    In before you say Stalin’s spoon actually killed 100,000,000 Ukrainians

  • The above poster said “anarchocommunist” not “anarchi capitalism”

  • The most obvious example in the current conversation is lemmygrad hosting a sub called Ukraine war news that has 0 news on active events in Ukraine.

    The community became more general about NATO activities in general because we changed the display name to “Death to NATO” which you would know if you visited !ukraine_war_news@lemmygrad.ml.

    With all due respect, some of your comments are giving off the vibe that you would have accused anyone who wanted to stop the Vietnam War as being Russian propagandists.

  • You’re not banned on Lemmygrad.

    We get a decent amount of bad faith people, and it’s possible mods mistook you for that. Use the search bar to look for answers we’ve already given to some of these questions, and use federation to explore Lemmygrad :)

    That’s what I did before making my account request there!
