An international (English speaking) socialist Lemmy community free of the “ML” influence of instances like lemmy.ml and lemmygrad. This is a place for undogmatic shitposting and memes from a progressive, anti-capitalist and truly anti-imperialist perspective, regardless of specific ideology.
Rules:
Be a decent person.
No racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, zionism/nazism, and so on.

Fun fact. If trash pickup stopped in your town for a month, people would go apeshit. If police stopped working for a month in the same town, most people (90%+) wouldn't even notice a difference
I don't have trash pickup, though, lol!
Too expensive in my area. (Seriously, $95/mo for the smallest can, and recycling costs extra!? Fuck off with that shit.)
Some of my trash gets burned in the wood stove -- free heat. Some can be fed to the chickens. The rest gets tossed in an old trailer that I drive to the dump myself 2 or 3 times a year. (We don't generate very much trash in our household in the first place.) For me, nothing much would change. I guess, presumably, if the trash pickup workers were on strike, the dump workers might also be. If the strike went on long enough that my trailer was getting overfilled, I guess I'd have to find somewhere else to dump it.
