Unionize fellllloooooooows
SWE union when?
Charleston never went anywhere. You'll still see the step all over in other dances from breakdancing to pop singers. It's a foundational dance step like the t step. Which makes sense since it goes with many things. https://youtu.be/90TzDXjWTdo
Art Deco fucking slaps.
Flaps
Come to New York, where there was an obvious cohesive art deco style that was completely trashed by developers because they’re fucking soulless pieces of human ganarte yeah even your developer dad or mom are trash
I fell in love with it watching Batman: The Animated Series.
The Charleston song kinda slaps too

My comrade, we are nearly half way in. The Charleston is not coming back.
Dem flappers tho.
There's still time.
DANCE HARDER, DAMMIT!
Some Fortnite animator is going to hear you
Wasn't the Charleston one of the first dances in Fortnite? I've never played it, but I could have sworn I saw stuff about it being in the game a long time ago.
Literally none of those things are coming back, where does the person who made this live?
Like the only thing coming back from the 20’s is the rise of fascism and the Great Depression.
The original comics has the great depression there instead of Anarco Syndicalism
If you're not dressing as a flapper what are you even doing with your life. Get with the times, it's never been more acceptable to be a cute little flapper regardless of gender. I will die on this hill, or by a novel strain of influenza that gets blamed on an unrelated country, either way we're going full rip-roaring 20s doll.
People should give Kansas a LOT more shit than they do.
Why would you die on that hill? You're alone up there lol
Dress how you want, but the point was that virtually nobody else is doing it

It was originally posted in 2019. Joke of course being that things associated with the 1920s would be relevant again in the 2020s.
Comic then shared as a meme with the 3rd panel being replaced with other panels. https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/things-were-bringing-back-in-the-2020s
Crushing poverty and the threat of starvation
And the resulting fascism, of course. 😮💨
That flapper is way too curvy.
Make her curvier!
Who says that a flapper can't be curvy?
Complaining?
I'm a stickler for historical accuracy.
Historically, girls will pad that booty to trick the boys.
yes

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
That means 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.
- Absolutely no posts or comments meant to relativize(/apologize for), advocate, promote or defend:
- Racism
- Sexism
- Queerphobia
- Ableism
- Classism
- Rape or assault
- Genocide/ethnic cleansing or (mass) deportations
- Fascism
- (National) chauvinism
- Orientalism
- Colonialism or Imperialism (and their neo- counterparts)
