Libertarian Socialism. In the UK the closest parties/groups would be Black Rose Labour and/or Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour. The countries closest to my beliefs are Denmark, Iceland and Norway.
I see, Anarchism. I like it, mainly Kropotkin. Although I disagree with some points IRL mainly of my daily comrades are anarchists. I am what you would call a tankie even though I despise tankies.
However, the people on Lemmy.ml took further offence when I suggested DPRK wasn’t a democratic country and they trotted out a list of articles on how democratic it really was. Then I was given a bunch of Stalin emojis of him pulling heart shapes with his hands.
I understand, and I think this shouldn’t happen. A Marxist should be open to honest debate. On my view DPKR is way more democratic than say USA. I don’t like this apologetic view of Stalin too. But I don’t subscribe to Imperialistic propaganda neither. I think somewhat I am priveleged living outside the axis North America x West Europe, those places have suffered with A LOT of propaganda, and it is hard to see it from inside.
I’m not a fan of autocratic dictatorships and I was dog-piled and taunted with a bunch of Stalinist and DPRK memes. Because apparently you’re not truly left-wing unless you worship Stalin and Kim.
DPKR isn’t a dictatorship though. Kim alone holds less power in his country than Biden for instance. Also he was elected. DPKR have some sort of direct democracy that most western world doesn’t even dream about.
I would have been happy to debate these points with them but unfortunately my reticence of autocratic dictatorships was considered far worse than what was directed at me in response.
These people really gives socialism a bad name after all. I agree with you.
Here on Lemmy you prefer the comments
timeline?
I mean, mastodon doesn’t have a method for groups. It just happens to show federated ActivityPub note
type
seriously? do you follow any large group in mastodon? do you prefer your timeline flooded with a single group discussion?
I got downvoted to hell
What’s wrong with downvoting? Ain’t it expected when the community allow downvotes?
Do you think everyone should agree with you always?
Then I got a 4-day ban cos I suggested “Tankies give socialists like me a bad name”. Fucking hell fire. I’m not going near any of their subs again.
I am curious, what current of socialism do you subscribe to?
Akkoma only shows the topic OP in your timeline, when you click you can see all comments. While mastodon boosts every reply flooding your timeline.
Akkoma suports activitypub articles, So you can actually read lemmy posts without leaving akkoma. While Mastodon only shows the article title and link, you are obliged to leave mastodon to read it.
Akkoma support activitypub groups. Properly.
And akkoma works perfectly with Lemmy where mastodon doesnt even understand groups
Election year in the US and EU while Russia is invading a neighbor and China possibly preparing to do the same.
Interesting you don’t mention Israel doing a fucking GENOCIDE and the USA supporting it.
you are aware that what you linked is up to mastodon to implement? nothing to do with Lemmy.
Healthy competition can make them grow better too.
how?
Linux is growing!
There are lot of people working for free to make it work by trying to improve it. It is easy to complain from the confort of my chair at home. And so society becomes more cursed each day.
I hear you, but what make me stick with Lemmy and try my best to make it work is the whole concept of decentralized social media. We can’t just handle the power back to big techs, see what facebook did in the whole trump election scandal. or what Twitter is becoming. The fediverse now is the only alternative we have, it is the last stand against a corporate controlled internet.
And I am tired to pretend social media does not dictates the real world trends, it does and it is here to stay. There is no more separation from irl and internet.
While the researcher is someone with some really solid knowledge and experience I don’t think he was fair in his analysis.
