Discussion Community for fellow Marxist-Leninists and other Marxists.
Rules for /c/communism
Rules that visitors must follow to participate. May be used as reasons to report or ban.
- No non-marxists
This subreddit is here to facilitate discussion between marxists.
There are other communities aimed at helping along new communists. This community isn't here to convert naysayers to marxism.
If you are a member of the police, armed forces, or any other part of the repressive state apparatus of capitalist nations, you will be banned.
- No oppressive language
Do not attempt to justify your use of oppressive language.
Doing this will almost assuredly result in a ban. Accept the criticism in a principled manner, edit your post or comment accordingly, and move on, learning from your mistake.
We believe that speech, like everything else, has a class character, and that some speech can be oppressive. This is why speech that is patriarchal, white supremacist, cissupremacist, homophobic, ableist, or otherwise oppressive is banned.
TERF is not a slur.
- No low quality or off-topic posts
Posts that are low-effort or otherwise irrelevant will be removed.
This is not a place to engage in meta-drama or discuss random reactionaries on lemmy or anywhere else.
This includes memes and circlejerking.
This includes most images, such as random books or memorabilia you found.
We ask that amerikan posters refrain from posting about US bourgeois politics. The rest of the world really doesn’t care that much.
- No basic questions about marxism
Posts asking entry-level questions will be removed.
Questions like “What is Maoism?” or “Why do Stalinists believe what they do?” will be removed, as they are not the focus on this forum.
- No sectarianism
Marxists of all tendencies are welcome here.
Refrain from sectarianism, defined here as unprincipled criticism. Posts trash-talking a certain tendency or marxist figure will be removed. Circlejerking, throwing insults around, and other pettiness is unacceptable.
If criticisms must be made, make them in a principled manner, applying Marxist analysis.
The goal of this subreddit is the accretion of theory and knowledge and the promotion of quality discussion and criticism.

It stopped being a truly independent empire after Tang. Post Tang, it hovered between being a tributary state and being formally part of China.
Yuan also had a special imperial office for the head Tibetan Buddhist. This office was also the titular head of all things Buddhist within China, not just Tibetan Buddhism. So this imperial office, which had to be staffed by a member of the Tibetan clergy, was the final say with regards to Buddhism regardless of whether you were a Tibetan who practiced Tibetan Buddhism in Tibet or a Han who practiced other schools of Buddhism in other provinces. If people outside of Tibet had to subscribe to Tibetan religious customs, then you can no longer claim separation between Tibet and the rest of China.
Now that's just silly. Tibet's incorporation in Yuan was completely peaceful, mostly because the Mongols didn't want to wage war and the Tibetans didn't want to be waged war at. Tibet's incorporation in Qing was a struggle between the Dzungar Khanate, a Mongolic polity. and Qing, a Chinese polity, over Tibet. While Qing would go on to ethnically cleanse the Dzungars, Tibetans were left alone.
