IIRC, leftists were some of the first people on Reddit to start exploring Lemmy as an option. I found out about Lemmygrad a few years before the APIcalypse, but there wasn’t enough motive to compensate for the inconvenience before.
Anyway, gotta love a platform that hasn’t been drowned in the tsunami of sewage that is 21st century imperialist ideology (yet).
As for Russian imperialism, I agree with you on this one, but it’s still a little bit of a debate even within the international communist movement.
Now, when we’re talking about China… I dunno, I don’t think I’ve made up my mind on this yet. It’s not clear cut, at least not for me. Right now, I think China is in a sui generis limbo between socialism and imperialist capitalism which could go either way.
Anyway, shilling for China and Russia is a rarer position on the Internet as a whole, so it’s refreshing even if it’s not necessarily positive. I’m just tired of US and EU propaganda machines completely taking over social media, especially the conservative propaganda.
What’s China got to do with the international communist movement? They lack both worker enfranchisement and decommodification. It’s not limbo - it’s just authoritarian state capitalism.
Shilling for Russia is the default alt-right neo-Nazi position.
China has the potential of being the shining example of socialism, but you can’t ignore Taiwan, Hong Kong, China rewriting maps to expand its own territory, or Xi ending term limits so he can rule indefinitely.
Shining example of communism, what with it’s Uyghur death camps are you kidding me?
See it’s this kind of blatant hate toward one side, while simultaneously looking the other way at your own beliefs, at China like some sort of shining bastion of hope that makes it obvious you’re a useful idiot.

Dunno what you mean bc there is plenty of Russian and Chinese imperialism, as though that’s somehow better than America.
Eh…

Communism has never worked, but this time right?
