Wanna pass these out folded so that they just show the words on a college campus, lol


Thanks!


G’night.


Truly we are blessed 🐶


Amazing, lmao! I’d feel less bad about the implications of using an example of the horrors of industrialized farming to shock libs, but at the same time I wouldn’t want to presume ownership over the original artist’s creations.


Haha, I feel bad, but the art is TOO CUTE I can’t not use it (unless they personally ask me to stop or mention that it can’t be used, which I haven’t seen). The vibe of the one I use is too perfect for explaining how I feel every day, lmao


Thanks for the kind words, but no, I’ve got a long road ahead in my studies before I consider myself educated in the field of Marxism-Leninism. I’m just one person, I just like to yap!


Thank you! It’s from a Korean artist, yeyepainting on instagram! Shamelessly stolen though.


There are 3 others!



Cowbee is just a stupid commie


Thanks for the kind words! One thing I want to say, though, is that it’s less that humans are greedy, and more that we are shaped by the way we live, produce, and distribute. Capitalism expresses and reinforces greed, we aren’t intrinsically greedy. Social democracy, ie capitalism with large safety nets, is unfortunately both unsustainable and also relies on imperialism to subsidize the safety nets, which is why socialism itself is necessary.


Some apps don’t display modified usernames, so it would just show “cowbee” instead of “cowbee [he/they]”


Nobody genuinely thinks the USSR or PRC can/could do no wrong, but the strawman image of someone who believes that is used as a club against those that uphold them, Cuba, Vietnam, Laos, DPRK, etc. as validly socialist countries working towards a better future. Healthcare and safety nets are social programs, not socialism, but that’s a different conversation.
The point is that those that uphold existing socialism are labeled “tankies,” and I uphold existing socialism, warts and all, as genuinely progressive movements.


I’ve stayed on topic the entire time, though. Where have I deflected? What information is “irrelevant?” If it appears that I’ve done so, I can only answer that it’s a symptom of me trying to respond to what you insist on remaining vague about.
I do get passionate when it comes to these things. It’s alarming and disheartening to see people’s lives just shrugged off and disrespected.
I don’t see anyone doing that, though. You keep asserting that we are, such as using the fact that Tank Man lived as a distraction from the hundreds that did die, but when given evidence to the contrary, such as how it’s intrinsically connected to the actual character of the events, including the hundreds that did die, you resort to insult rather than answering me honestly.
I do apologize for getting feisty at you.
Accepted, thank you.
I’ll bet, they’re banned from Lemmy.ml so we don’t see the spam.
