An international (English speaking) socialist Lemmy community free of "ML" (read: Dengist) influence. This is a place for undogmatic shitposting and memes from a progressive, anti-capitalist and truly anti-imperialist perspective, regardless of specific ideology.
Serious posts, news, discussion and agitprop/stuff that's better fit for a poster than a meme go in c/Socialism.
If you are new to socialism, you can ask questions and find resources over on c/Socialism101.
Please don't forget to help keep this community clean by reporting rule violations, updooting good contributions and downdooting those of low quality!
Rules
0. Only post socialist memes
That refers to funny image macros and means that generally videos and screenshots are not allowed. Exceptions include explicitly humorous and short videos, as well as (social media) screenshots depicting a funny situation, joke, or joke picture relating to socialist movements, theory, societal issues, or political opponents. Examples would be the classic case of humorous Tumblr or Twitter posts/threads. (and no, agitprop text does not count as a meme. Please post agitprop here)
0.5 [Provisional Rule] Use alt text or image descriptions to allow greater accessibility
(Please take a look at our wiki page for the guidelines on how to actually write alternative text!)
We require alternative text (from now referred to as "alt text") to be added to all posts/comments containing media, such as images, animated GIFs, videos, audio files, and custom emojis.
EDIT: For files you share in the comments, a simple summary should be enough if they’re too complex.
We are committed to social equity and to reducing barriers of entry, including (digital) communication and culture. It takes each of us only a few moments to make a whole world of content (more) accessible to a bunch of folks.
When alt text is absent, a reminder will be issued. If you don't add the missing alt text within 48 hours, the post will be removed. No hard feelings.
0.5.1 Style tip about abbreviations and short forms
When writing stuff like "lol" and "iirc", it's a good idea to try and replace those with their all caps counterpart
- ofc => OFC
- af = AF
- ok => OK
- lol => LOL
- bc => BC
- bs => BS
- iirc => IIRC
- cia => CIA
- nato => Nato (you don't spell it when talking, right?)
- usa => USA
- prc => PRC
- etc.
Why? Because otherwise (AFAIK), screen readers will try to read them out as actually words instead of spelling them
1. Socialist Unity in the form of mutual respect and good faith interactions is enforced here
Try to keep an open mind, other schools of thought may offer points of view and analyses you haven't considered yet. Also: This is not a place for the Idealism vs. Materialism or rather Anarchism vs. Marxism debate(s), for that please visit c/AnarchismVsMarxism.
2. Anti-Imperialism means recognizing capitalist states like Russia and China as such
That means condemning (their) imperialism, even if it is of the "anti-USA" flavor.
3. No liberalism, (right-wing) revisionism or reactionaries.
That includes so called: Social Democracy, Democratic Socialism, Dengism, Market Socialism, Patriotic Socialism, National Bolshevism, Anarcho-Capitalism etc. . Anti-Socialist people and content have no place here, as well as the variety of "Marxist"-"Leninists" (read: Dengists) (actual ML's are welcome as long as they agree to the rules and don't just copy paste/larp about stuff from a hundred years ago).
4. No Bigotry.
The only dangerous minority is the rich.
5. Don't demonize previous and current socialist experiments or (leading) individuals.
We must constructively learn from their mistakes, while acknowledging their achievements and recognizing when they have strayed away from socialist principles.
(if you are reading the rules to apply for modding this community, mention "Mantic Minotaur" when answering question 2)
6. Don't irrationally idolize/glorify previous and current socialist experiments or (leading) individuals.
Notable achievements in all spheres of society were made by various socialist/people's/democratic republics around the world. Mistakes, however, were made as well: bureaucratic castes of parasitic elites - as well as reactionary cults of personality - were established, many things were mismanaged and prejudice and bigotry sometimes replaced internationalism and progressiveness.
- Absolutely no posts or comments meant to relativize(/apologize for), advocate, promote or defend:
- Racism
- Sexism
- Queerphobia
- Ableism
- Classism
- Sexual assault
- Genocide/ethnic cleansing or (mass) deportations
- Fascism
- (National) chauvinism
- Orientalism
- Colonialism or Imperialism (and their neo- counterparts)
- Zionism
- Religious fundamentalism of any kind

Yes part of the space Nazi troops
Exterminating entire planets of disobedient "degenerates" to own the Nazis
As a chef I feel like I have to say that a lot of these are wrong (or are weird choices,anyway), but the bottom one is chefs kiss.
I think I need to play Wolfenstein again...
Tbf, the ham slicer is probably sub-optimal for Nazi-cutting work. A paring or utility knife would be a much better choice, the small size allows you to move them quickly and a sharp point is critical for getting at those hard-to-reach places that need a good puncture.
Oh, you've got it wrong. The inefficiency is deliberate.
Why do all knives not say Nazi?
Honestly my trusty chef's knife cuts bread no problem. And on my homemade bread it keeps it from being too crumbly unlike my "bread" knife.
I also have full faith that it would work just fine on Nazis
A good chef need only 3 knives. ~ Gordon Ramsey
A knife is only a sharp, flat piece of metal. ~ me
You dont need knive-sets, no need for japanese foulded metal. ~ Huggbees
Just sharpen your knife and get rid of it if it aint good. ~ me
Hard disagree with the bottom two, but a santoku, a regular-ass chef's knife (Japanese, or German when a Japanese one's unavailable), and a super sharp paring knife do me just fine. Cooked professionally for 2 decades with just those.
A filet knife and a cleaver I used very rarely, but were something the restaurants always had kicking around, because no one Smeagols one of those like we do our preciouses.
Edit: did GR say which 3 he meant?
I dont quite remember exactly but Gordon always uses a big one, a pairing knife and a flexible one for fish and filet. ( ah I found something, different from memory but what does that count? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-av6cz9upO0 he uses: carving, chopping and a large serated knife)
Metal is just metal if its shaped right and sharpened it will do its job. The only reason for a modern person to get those expensive katakana folded steel knives is to look cool.
The only reason the tradition even exists in the first place is that the ore and smelting techniques of the japanese islands made them try to purify the metal through repeated folding and heating.
Meanwhile in european Forgecraft the temperatures got higher so that even low-quality ore could be fully smelted, drastically improving metal quality, allowing for faster forging.
The faster forging has another benefit, the hot metal is in contact with air for a shorter time, so it oxidizes less and looses less carbon, and it needs to spend less time being re-heated in the forge (potentially re-introducin unwanted carbon), both contribute to the final steel being of a better quality. Because its just easier to get the carbon distribution right.
Hard, nearly brittle high-carbon steel on the cutting edge(s), low carbon, flexible steel on the spine of the sword/knife. Where is that with folded steel? That nearly impossible to do! While you could just put two blocks of the right steels together and hammer into shape and then sharpen.
So many people do these bogus "experiences" with these beautiful japanese knive sets, where the only feature for cooking is that it has been adequately sharpened.
Get yourself one of those Gears of War chainsaw guns. You will look cool as fuck sawing through some fascist shithead
