I’ve been trying to find a good Marxist instance, but Lemmygrad and Hexbear are widely hated. Why is that? Are there any good leftist instances?

With how much anticommunism goes down in the federation I sometimes wish the developers would hide some code that would kick people who do this off the entire federation. Don’t use a fucking communist platform to get away from the failing capitalist one and then spend all your time being McCarthy’s left nutsack. I know that’s never going to happen because that goes against the developer’s values, but god damn would it be justified as fuck if it happened, and it would stop like 99.9999% of the toxicity and CSAM that gets posted here.
Who said this is a communist platform?
It was literally created to be reddit without the capitalism. You didn’t think what the implications of that meant?
It’s a federated platform… it can be whatever the instance hosts want it to be.
Yeah but the anti-corporation and anti-capitalism aspect plays deeply into federated free libre open source platforms and software. The culture of FOSS is inherently communist. You think corporate bros love freedom, privacy, piracy, all that shit?
I don’t think the average person cares about the FOSS principles that the instance software was built upon, they probably care that it just works and receives updates. People will come for the content.
True, buuuuuut the FOSS community is a bit militant with being anti-corpo and anti-capitalist. Even if it is not a direct concern for people who give 0 fucks about FOSS tribalism, the culture’s benefits directly impact them in a good way. Besides, capitalism is not something many people like lmao. Most capitalism lovers either are big business leeches, or kids belonging to those families or are Instagram dronies.
Not how FOSS works. If devs tried that, lemmy forks and splits, basically defederating but more steps and more pain/forced defederating as people choose between two camps.
Who said this is a liberal platform? USA/NATO loving liberals can have Reddit.
Nobody. You’re the only person trying to define what platform you believe lemmy to be.
You asserted this is not a communist or any -ist platform. You got no answer to my rebuttal, and pretend to cry? Fuck outta here with that shit.
Liberal westerners and crybullying, name a more iconic duo that isn’t crackers and misquoting failed philosophies of non-violence
Anglo nationalists and fascism (like real fascism)
Sorry had to beat ya
