In all my years of riding trains, I've indeed never witnessed that. Usually everyone just tries really hard to ignore them.

I believe OP has yet to see concerted action against minorities. Good luck to you.

Why wait for the next stop? 🤷🏻‍♂️

You shouldn't have to, but unfortunately the doors won't open otherwise 😁

Either I don't get it, as a non anglophone. Or did people force you out of a tram, OP?

bigot: a person who is obstinately or unreasonably attached to a belief, opinion, or faction, especially one who is prejudiced against or antagonistic toward a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular group.

The people getting forced off the train are the ones being bigots. For example, people who make comments against gay people, women, trans people, or black people. People who act like that get forced off at the next stop. Not just bigots, but I've seen people taking creepshots of young women get pressured off the train/bus as well. No cops needed. Does this make sense?

It doesn't happen every time, but it happens enough in certain neighborhoods. I've seen it multiple times.

Well that's a good thing. But after also googling 'STEMlords' I'm sure you're confused because the level of education has nothing to do with that. If anything, it's fair to say that intelligent or educated people rarely bother others compared to.. well idiots

Edit: i mean i like your meme but the bottom text is stupid

[-] LinkOpensChest_wav@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 8 months ago

This sounds very classist to me. Level of education has nothing to do with being a good person. If you're educated, but you're too cowardly to stand up for what's right, then your education is a complete waste.

THis sOunds vE.. stfu bigot lol.

Knowledge and self-confidence are two different things, not necessarily related in that way

[-] horsey@lemm.ee 1 points 8 months ago

I don’t get it, how is this a lefty meme? It’s saying we don’t need a functional government? Isn’t that anarchist or libertarian or something?

[-] LinkOpensChest_wav@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 8 months ago

Yes it's anarchist, which is leftist

You could Google that instead of asking someone you obviously just want to dunk on

Lefty Memes

4261 readers
1514 users here now

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.

Serious posts, news, and discussion go in c/Socialism.

If you are new to socialism, you can ask questions and find resources over on c/Socialism101.

Please don't forget to help keep this community clean by reporting rule violations, updooting good contributions and downdooting those of low-quality!

Rules

0. Only post socialist memes

That refers to funny image macros and means that generally videos and screenshots are not allowed. Exceptions include explicitly humorous and short videos, as well as (social media) screenshots depicting a funny situation, joke, or joke picture relating to socialist movements, theory, societal issues, or political opponents. Examples would be the classic case of humorous Tumblr or Twitter posts/threads. (and no, agitprop text does not count as a meme)

1. Socialist Unity in the form of mutual respect and good faith interactions is enforced here

Try to keep an open mind, other schools of thought may offer points of view and analyses you haven't considered yet. Also: This is not a place for the Idealism vs. Materialism or rather Anarchism vs. Marxism debate(s), for that please visit c/AnarchismVsMarxism.

2. Anti-Imperialism means recognizing capitalist states like Russia and China as such,

as well as condemning (their) imperialism, even if it is of the "anti-USA" flavor.

3. No liberalism, (right-wing) revisionism or reactionaries.

That includes so called: Social Democracy, Democratic Socialism, Dengism, Market Socialism, Patriotic Socialism, National Bolshevism, Anarcho-Capitalism etc. . Anti-Socialist people and content have no place here, as well as the variety of "Marxist"-"Leninists" seen on lemmygrad and more specifically GenZedong (actual ML's are welcome as long as they agree to the rules and don't just copy paste/larp about stuff from a hundred years ago).

4. No Bigotry.

The only dangerous minority is the rich.

5. Don't demonize previous and current socialist experiments or (leading) individuals.

We must constructively learn from their mistakes, while acknowledging their achievements and recognizing when they have strayed away from socialist principles.

(if you are reading the rules to apply for modding this community, mention "Mantic Minotaur" when answering question 2)

6. Don't idolize/glorify previous and current socialist experiments or (leading) individuals.

Notable achievements in all spheres of society were made by various socialist/people's/democratic republics around the world. Mistakes, however, were made as well: bureaucratic castes of parasitic elites - as well as reactionary cults of personality - were established, many things were mismanaged and prejudice and bigotry sometimes replaced internationalism and progressiveness.

7. Absolutely no posts or comments meant to relativize(/apologize for), advocate, promote or defend:

(This is not a definitive list, the spirit of the other rules still counts! Eventual duplicates with other rules are for emphasis.)
