Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
Well, just based on one country I have personal experience living in, it seems like a multi-faceted issue. It feels like the people have their heads down and don't speak out of fear of retribution.
I am not flawing the communistic ideal in this case. I just wanted to point out, that no, it's not just capitalism that is causing the problems, and I wouldn't be posting on a hexbear server if I think capitalism is a solution to anything besides problems caused by it. Hell, I say down with democracy in it's current iteration, we have reached its limits.
Just to drive the point home, when Hungary wanted it's own flavor of socialism (I guess like Tito), soviet tanks came rushing in. I am all for the common win, but this looked more like imperialism than spreading the message of love and sharing.
The Hungarian revolution understander has entered the chat.
Thank you.
CIA documents have been released recently proving this “revolt” was a CIA backed fascist putsch
Surprise, surprise the red tankies were right again.
Oh sorry, it's a meme about people who clearly don't know what they are talking about being sure about the subject matter. You just put "the x understander" where x is the topic the person is acting like they understand, but doesn't.
Lots of users came in to explain why, check out some of their comments!
I replied sardonically in kind. Sry if it was too tame.
you want to know how I can tell you've never read any Marxist theory and have no idea what historical materialism means?
