I got on lemmy because I just wanted to ditch reddit. I can’t be bothered to set this convoluted shit up again.
See this comment with PieFed code analysis for context: https://lemmy.ml/post/42415919/23662293
Also featuring extra serving of drama slop
i use both and don’t give a shit. 🤷
Now that Piefed is getting popular tankie users are feeling threatened so they sling the mud.
This user is [email protected] and is a serial harasser who has attacked multiple community builders off the platform.
Is piefed some other aggregator?
If so I’m not sure how that threatens us tankies. If it gives libs some other place to congregate, all the better
Just a reminder that even other commies don’t like tankies.
It’s been very funny to see the rhetorical slide in the last decade.
- Sure I’m a progressive but I’m not a socialist
-Sure I’m a socialist but I’m not some communist
-Sure I’m a communist but I’m not some kind of tankie
The overton window will continue to shift as conditions deteriorate, reform continues to fail, and us “tankies” continue to be proven correct about everything. Enjoy the ride
What is now happening to Marx’s theory has, in the course of history, happened repeatedly to the theories of revolutionary thinkers and leaders of oppressed classes fighting for emancipation. During the lifetime of great revolutionaries, the oppressing classes constantly hounded them, received their theories with the most savage malice, the most furious hatred and the most unscrupulous campaigns of lies and slander. After their death, attempts are made to convert them into harmless icons, to canonize them, so to say, and to hallow their names to a certain extent for the “consolation” of the oppressed classes and with the object of duping the latter, while at the same time robbing the revolutionary theory of its substance, blunting its revolutionary edge and vulgarizing it. Today, the bourgeoisie and the opportunists within the labor movement concur in this doctoring of Marxism. They omit, obscure, or distort the revolutionary side of this theory, its revolutionary soul. They push to the foreground and extol what is or seems acceptable to the bourgeoisie.
All the social-chauvinists are now “Marxists” (don’t laugh!).
I am for an armed revolution I just don’t think installing a dictator at the end of it will help the people in a meaningful way long term. Putting a single person in charge will always lead to corruption eventually.
Thank goodness we don’t install dictators but instead elect from a council democratic system
thank you for your vote. Would you like to finish the child I’ve been eating?
