Why can't we have a leftist instance that doesn't suck CCP dick?
We do. DB0 and Solarpunk.
Solarpunk is one. I guess my instance is leftist too, however it is very tiny.
dbzer0 is another one. It's an anarchist instance to be precise. @AbsoluteChicagoDog@lemm.ee
Blåhaj is here! I don't recall seeing a tankie with a blåhaj account, and also we have personalities outside of politics.
If you check the Blahaj rules it explicitly states being tankie adjacent is a bannable offence, I love it.
Marxists generally support AES, so instances that are pro-Marxism tend to be supportive of the CPC. I don't think there are any Syndicalist instances or anything, so you'd have to go to an Anarchist server like dbzer0 or something. Lemmy.world tends to be right-wing, especially because it's defederated from Marxist instances and some of the mods have ridiculed Marxism in general.
AES?
Edit: Found it, "Actually existing socialism"
Yep! You got it. Cuba, PRC, the USSR (pre-dissolution), Vietnam, Laos, etc.
lemmy.world is basically that. You'll get the most concentrated socdem/socialist engagements without traipsing into hunny-cum-shot territory.
Lemmy.world absolutely isn't Leftist, it's overwhelmingly liberal and the mods are anti-Marxist, even defederating from Marxist instances. Lemmy.world is allowed to be a liberal instance, but pretending it's socialist is silly.
I mean, depends on the day. I see tons of very socialist/leftist memes and content posted to world. That being said, how many times do you need to circle jerk about socialism in the comments section on Lemmy? It's not like anyone is actually going to do a proletariat revolution. At this point, it would just be Marxists "ackshually"-ing each other. I'm super bored of the lack of progress made in the discussions.
Leftist messaging is increasingly popular as Capitalism decays, but that doesn't mean everyone has read theory. Lemmy.world is largely populated by liberals sympathetic to an idealistic form of Socialism that is pure fantasy, and denounce AES as a betratal of Socialism. Blackshirts and Reds has an entire chapter dedicated to western "left" anticommunism.
I'm a Marxist-Leninist, I believe Marxism to be correct and try to get others to read theory. I get deep satisfaction whenever someone changes their mind or reads theory because of what I comment and post.
On what grounds do you say this? Revolution is happening all around the world every few years in different states, as Capitalism decays more people become sympathetic to leftism. It will likely happen latest in Imperialist countries like the US, where living standards are inflated by hyper-exploitation of the Global South, and happens all the time in the Global South. Trends exist, systems aren't static, Capitalism cannot last forever. That would be like believing water could be continuously heated and never boil.
To be clear, most Marxists don't need to "ackshually" each other, just towards liberals. Liberals often have the same misconceptions, that doesn't mean they aren't changing their minds individually.
db0 is pretty neutral while being intentionally left.
I have this LINK to the Lefty Memes moderator on db0 advocating against Democracy, is an advocate for the CCP and for people in the USA to tear down the system and abandon NATO.
