I've opened Lemmy today to lots of anti Canadian sentiment on any recent comments about how messed up 'murica is and it's constant attacks on Canadian sovereignty.

Don't get sucked in. Let them yell into a void. The online campaign has begun in earnest on Lemmy and it's time to point it out and recognise it for what it is.

These are not real people. They are actors trying to affect our decisions as always happens when American exceptionalism is challenged. Our government had the balls to stand up and say no. We have the balls to do the same. They do not like it and will attack you for it.

Don't fall for the bait.

What? Communists, at least Marxists, ARE anarchists in a way. The main difference between them and what we usually call Anarchists is that communists believe we need to create a transitional system of socialist government that will slowly "wither away" into a communistic society - a moneyless, stateless society. i.e. a form of anarchy. Anarchists believe that no state can ever be trusted and we should overthrow the current system directly to a anarchic system. Of course there are many types of anarchists but the ones most people think of are "Anarcho-Communists". There are other types like Anarcho-Capitalists which are like even more extreme libertarians, but that's even more niche. The biggest, most typical group that use red/black flags are Anarcho-Communists.

Yea maybe i just need a poli sci degree to understand what you're saying because what i heard was, anarchist believe that communist will devolve into an anarchy which makes no sense to me.

I thought communism was a state of commune. Everyone contributes and everyone benefits, but there is still very much rules to abide by. Anarchy means no government, no rules, fuck the system

Edit: this is probably why i can't understand what hexbear stands for
