Marxism doesn’t call on the state to do that. That’s leninism. Marxism is highly unobjectionable. The problem is how we get there. Marx himself spoke of an evolution over a long period of time in Society to arrive there. However humans desire immediate gratification. And thus that was unsatisfactory for most people. Which is where Engles, Lenin and others enter the picture. Who thought they could jump start communism/marxism using the very thing that kept communism/Marxism from being possible. The state.
In my experience the kind of communists who want to shoot all the anarchists …
You’re confusing Communists with communists. They’re very different. Anarchists tend to be communist. Therefore if communists were shooting anarchists they’d be shooting themselves. Anarchists want a classless stateless society based on Mutual Aid. Which is exactly what actual communist want. Communists on the other hand are a heavily class based society. With an overarching crushing state that commands everything. Destroying and slaughtering any dissent against the Vanguard party and it’s oppression of the proletariat.
Communists are in no way communist. They are a completely different ideology. Often referred to as ml or Marxist leninist. And Lemmy is rife with them. They would get away imprison or Slaughter any communist or anarchist who spoke out against them or their perceived Revolution
Aaaah the Herman Cain method. Be the best, like no one ever was!
Please elaborate. How much is AIPAC giving in total. Who are the groups who could give more, but aren’t. And why aren’t they.
Not all Israelis are zionists. Not all zionists are israelis. You are still refusing to understand the full scope of things.
When Reagan broke the unions, single-handedly neutering the largest base of support for Democrats at the time. Groups like The aipac moved into fill that void. If Democrats could easily abandon aipac money by now they would have. As much as it would be morally correct to do it. It would be a bit of a political death sentence as long as money is considered speech.
Any distro can do this. However the “user friendly” ones would tend to be the worst about it. Wanting to beep boop to get your attention for updates etc. I won’t say which distro I use “by the way”. But with Linux you are the admin. You own the system. You can disable noisy update notifiers or things that would wake the system. I had an HP elite book with garuda on it. I accidentally left it on and “charging” for several days. Thought it was unplugged and off. Didn’t show any signs of life till I dropped something on the KB.
Why would you think it was negative? My only guess would be the way Leninists like to cosplay as Communists. And the way the west likes to smear communists by associating them with leninists.
Then they are Zionist institutions. Not Jewish ones.
As the other poster pointed out. They’re using the term with reference to economic liberalism. What the US was founded upon. What we today generally refer to as capitalism. Economic liberalism is a mouthful. It was generally shortened to liberalism and it’s adherence called liberals. The modern use of the term is a warping of that. Realistically wealthy Democrats and Wealthy Republicans are both liberals. Just not the Liberals you would be referring to with the term liberal. You’re using it as slang they’re using it as a proper noun/term.
Realistically they don’t exist. But it messes with their narrative. They need to feel Superior. So they need to feel that the people who disagree with them must worship her or Trump. Because it certainly couldn’t be that they have bad takes. Or thay people have reasonable things to disagree with them on. They know in their own minds that they are absolutely 100% correct. And if you disagree with them. It doesn’t mean that you have anything about to say or a point. It just means to them that you are wrong.
Aye that was the next part of the bit you quoted that I mentioned that. And I am definitely subscribed to it.
It just makes far more sense for open Source projects. Than associating themselves so closely with toxic political ideologies like capitalism or leninism.
Thankfully now that there are lots of viable alternatives. Plenty of those communities are moving or winding down. I would like to see more do what the KDE devs did. And have their own official communities whenever possible. Of course Mozilla only tried Mastodon but took theirs down already
Probably in relation to the blue maga name calling. Many of the low intelligence or high self radicalization people rely on as a crutch. Any time someone points out the vitriolic and illogical parts of their rhetoric. Ole Linky seems to be banned from most the communities I visit. Or at least don’t post there anymore. Kinda had forgotten about them honestly. But linky was definitely the one to say things like that.
It doesn’t at all. It was a nothing Burger the whole time. And if you were ignorant enough to believe the Twitter files. Well that’s on you.
They didn’t ban it. They were the ones spreading it. Literally I can give you page after page after page of evidence. Twitter and Facebook were the main vectors it spread through unabated. The Biden Administration rightfully asking for them not to make exception to their revenge porn rules. To no avail was not the same thing.
In a rational world? Perhaps. But if this were a rational world and that were actually the reason. They would have done it after the Clinton campaign leaked documents. Or 30 times before that. So I highly suspect that isn’t the case. It’s that it’s impacting the people they want to win personally. Therefore it must be censored. And for all the many faults Democrats have. They’re not being hypocritical on this point at least. The Biden campaign was contacted with this information previously but didn’t publish it or run with it. Not like any Republican or specifically Trump officials would have.
Interesting how documents from democratic campaigns are fair game. Even dick pics of the president’s son are fair game. But when it comes to Republicans Suddenly It’s all off limits. Strange.
People want to believe that they’re informed. Want to believe that they know things others don’t. That they are wise. And will push back when challenged. Because they don’t know the one thing every wise person knows. Just how much they don’t know. Fools are confidently wrong. The wise are cautiously correct.
