Be civil

No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
Posts should be memes

No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
If Marxists, socialists, anarchists, Maoists and Leninists continue to practice campism, then we have no hope to stand against fascism. This isn’t personal, just consider who the real enemy is before posting divisive content.
I’d rather live under a liberal democracy than a stalinist or maoist state.
I’m an anarcho-communist. I support the abolition of hierarchy. Not the creation of new ones.
I’m disabled. While I’m allowed a meagre but survivable existence under liberal democratic welfare states, I would have been murdered in Stalin’s great purge or the Maoist cultural revolution.
I will not turn a blind eye to people who murdered my kind just because they are also against capitalism.
You can say all you want about unity. But once the bolsheviks took power they executed anarchist dissidents. Similar things happened in other authoritarian “communist” states. You can’t shame me into supporting people who would kill me once in power.
The irony isn’t lost on me after watching this video this morning.
