Lemmy is whatever we make it, except for the communism posts that love communism until they realize workers need representation. I half believe those are Chinese bots or high school kids who are stupid enough to believe the Chinese bots.
Got new for you champ China doesn't gaf about communism... and they sure as fuck don't care enough to deploy bots on lemmy... The fediverse maybe...
Right. Magically, everyone on the Internet has become infatuated with communism out of thin air over the last few years. Must just be my paranoia to surggest influence from a hostile government.
its almost as if consistently worsening material conditions make people more desperate to look for an alternative to neoliberalism as their rent skyrockets and the cost of food just keeps going up and up but wages stay stagnant - the idea that some foreign government is whats secretly puppeteering socialists / progressive social democrats like bernie, corbyn, lula, etcetera into relevance when there's plenty of perfectly good reasons to slide to the left all around is just QAnon but for moderates
