Leftism
Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!
Rules:
- Absolutely no fascism, right wing extremism, genocide denial, etc.
- Unconditional support of authoritarians will not be tolerated
- Good faith discussion about ideologies is encouraged, but no sectarianism
- No brocialism/sexism
- No ableism
- No TERFs/ anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric
- No racism
- No trolling
- No insults, dunking, or personal attacks
- No posting of misinformation, disinformation, or fake news
- Mods have final say
Posting Expectations:
- Comics/memes/shitposts/propaganda are only allowed on weekends
- Try to avoid liberalism unless discussing electoral politics. Even then, try to focus on tactical agreement towards leftist goals
- Only one meta post seeking consensus per person per day
- Posts about a particular ideology are ok, but remember the rules above
- Remember that there is no “right way” to implement leftist theory. This rule does not prevent academic criticism.
- Try to avoid extremely sensitive topics unless approaching them with appropriate care for intersectionality. Use your best judgement, and be prepared to provide respectable sources when having these discussions. Wikipedia is not an acceptable source in these cases.
- Post titles must be meaningful and relevant, except on weekends

Bitchute is centralized; content distribution is not. Bitchute has a stranglehold over the platform. It is centralized in all the ways that leftists care about. Odysee is built on blockchain so of course nobody with 5 braincells are gonna touch it. Peertube has awful discovery so nobody who matters cares to use it.
I don't know what your point is
Lol.
Typical leftie behavior: if it's not perfect, fuck it. This is why the left is so split and losing to right-wingers "oh you're on my side? no you aren't, we disagree on point 9182534925349 and point 12673581253! fuck you, you nazi misogynist pig!". Right-wingers would blot the skies with swastika smoke signals while lefties argue about the harm it does to the planet and everyone gets converted.
What kind of decentralized platform are you waiting for? Does Marx have to rise from the grave first to sanctify it before you will deem it worthy?
what?
