- Uphold Revolutionary Optimism, Know That a Better Future is Possible!
It is important to always keep in mind that societal progress is an unstoppable historical force. Setbacks of years, decades or even centuries don't matter in the grand scheme of things. Class struggle will progress as it always has since the beginning of post-tribal civilization. As the leading force of history, it will eventually sweep aside capitalism as it has done with feudalism, mercantilism and other modes of production before that. This can only end in two ways at the injunction we are currently at: the continuation of exploitative modes of production - like capitalism and it's various derivatives - destroying the ecological base of our existence, causing us to tip over the point of no return of ecological collapse or the distruction of the exploiter classes, including their tools, and the construction of a socialist society with the goal of reaching communism.
So let us work towards making sure that the latter will come to fruition!
- Socialism is science and rationale applied to the economy!
The irrational way of ressource allocation and oganization of production inherent in capitalism leads to wasted economic potential in pursuit of personal gain and profits, instead of democratizing the workplace, improving living standards and reducing work hours. We waste the potential found in automation on producing mostly useless things that are designed to break in a few years, while also threatening the job security of countless of working people instead of shortening the work week with same or increased pay.
- Open for Posting!
Hello everyone,
the recent behavior of Reddit as a company has finally prompted me to give up the platform. While looking for alternatives, I saw the problems of leftist communities on Reddit reflected in those as well. Since you are here I don't have to talk about the r/GenZedong crowd gathering in lemmygrad. Other communities on Lemmy have not really fit my taste in terms of actual socialist orientation either. I know that there is Hexbear.net and that it is a bit better in that regard. But it still seems to tolerate such reactionaries and is not federated with the rest of lemmy.
As such, I wanted to try setting up an alternative batch of communities created in the same spirit (including this one):
For discussion between socialists
For the discussion and explanation of socialist principles
For the discussion and explanation of communist principles
For sharing leftist Memes between leftists
For sharing communist Memes between communists
For the constructive and good-faith discussion of the merits, differences and similarities between Anarchism and Marxism
Please feel free to discuss suggestions and your general opinion/attitude on this below.
