I am a Marxist Leninist ,can you believe the username Mohammed is not taken ? ,my friend told me that this space was too “white” but I didn’t think he was that right

We also have a more mixed demographics over at the news megathread (Bulletin and News Discussions, pinned at the top) but that’s only if you’re interested in international geopolitics as that’s what most of the discussions there are about.

[-] MohammedTheCommunistPalestinian@hexbear.net 41 points 8 months ago

Ofc I am interested in those things ,I’m just sick of seeing the comments of reactionaries

Glad this exists

[-] nat_turner_overdrive@hexbear.net 31 points 8 months ago

The reactionaries on the lemmyverse will often show up to do single drive-by comments here on Hexbear, but they never do it in the news mega because they fear our power and effortposting

You have our full support whether your resistance is violent or nonviolent.

We don't have demographic data for obvious reasons, but yeah, we could stand to have more non white members join, but unfortunately that's the state of the western left in the US.

Also we're really gay and trans and we like memes and pictures of owls

Saludos Mohammed. The resilience and strength of the Palestinian resistance is being watched by those of us in the global south and has become a source of inspiration to many. Some of our governments may be beholden to Israel but there are many of us who wish to see Palestine be freed from colonial rule and oppression.

Welcome fidel-salute-big we have our problems, but it's usually fun as long as we're not doing a pointless struggle session on something silly or confusing new users by speaking in weird terms that exist only on hexbear.

Also we love posting PIGPOOPBALLS to lib/fash trolls that wander in trying to start bad faith fights with us (though some think we do it too much).

Enjoy our oversized emojis denguin

[-] MohammedTheCommunistPalestinian@hexbear.net 26 points 8 months ago

I look forward to seeing you around comrade. What sorts of books and manga? Chess is interesting but I am lousy at it, anyone who knows how to play that without losing miserably every time is someone to respect...

Palestine will never die, partly because there is someone with Dr. Tenma as their pfp living in the West Bank.

this is a pretty white space but that's because all non-white leftists are busy getting shit done in their home countries
