For all your boycotting needs. I’m sure there’s some mods caught in lemmy.ml’s top 10 that are perfectly upstanding and reasonable people, my condolences for the cross-fire.
- [email protected] and [email protected]. Or of course communities that rule.
- [email protected]
- [email protected]. Quite small, plenty of more specific ones available. Also linux is inescapable on lemmy anyway :)

- [email protected] and maybe [email protected], lemmy.one itself seems to be up in the air. [email protected] says [email protected]. They really seem to be hiding even from another, those tinfoil hats :)

- Seems like [email protected] and [email protected], various smaller comic-specifc communities as well as [email protected]

(Out of the loop? Here’s a thread on lemmy.ml mods and their questionable behaviour)
Also this isn’t even about Marxism or Leninism as-such. This is about the good ole attempt to expand democratic centralism to a population which is actually revisionist in itself because it either ignores that Lenin conceptualised democratic centralism as a discipline for a party, or because it wants to forego with the vanguard position of the party and expand it to the populace, take your pick.
Plenty of anarchists on those instances you call “liberal”, tankies won’t be missed.
I didn’t imply all Leftism is Marxist, .world doesn’t much care for Anarchists either. Hexbear is largely Anarchist and was blocked before they even had a chance to federate, and dbzer0 is largely on strained terms over “piracy concerns.”
Not really sure what you mean by spreading “Democratic Centralism” by saber rattling about Lemmy.ml, but that’s your right.
It is nice that you admit that all Marxism is tankie, that’s refreshing. Most pretend to draw a distinction, but ultimately decide only Marx himself is somehow not a tankie and everyone got his words wrong.
Oh he definitely leaned that way for most of the time, all that vanguard stuff I mean and not to mention Engel’s infamous (and absolutely gaslighting) “On Authority” (I’ll lump the two together), but in his final works he was way more amenable to Anarchist modes of organisation, as a reflection on the Paris Commune.
The “expanding democratic centralism to the whole populace” is basically Stalin’s invention. Lenin wanted the party unified and not bogged down in constantly questioning already-made decisions, fair enough, it’s quite a different ballpark to expand that kind of unity to a whole population. And that’s where I draw the parallel to lemmy.ml’s moderation policies: While you only see the whole deal on lemmygrad, lemmy.ml is still very much up there when it comes to “We said there were no deaths during the Tienanmen incident, we decided it, it’s not to be questioned, no we don’t even care for you quoting the CCP itself to contradict us enjoy your ban”.
His reflections on the Paris Commune weren’t that Anarchism is better, but that the entire state needed to be replaced, and the old can’t simply be siezed. Marx was never an Anarchist and never would be, even if he felt they had good intentions.
Lemmygrad’s very own Prolewiki says there were 300 deaths. I am not sure where you are getting the idea that they believe there were no deaths, 300 may be low but is certainly higher than 0. Maybe you’re referencing the bit where they say the killings didn’t happen on the Square itself, and you took that to mean no deaths at all? An understandable confusion on your part, but not accurate to what even hard-line Lemmygradders say.
