Look, I feel bad, I really do, sucks when chuds get one over on leftists…BUT you’re using Reddit in the year 2025, like come on
thank god for the fediverse… though we have some counter-revolutionary piefed and lemmy.world elements trying to redditize the fediverse
The main audience for lemmy is disgruntled former redditors so that’s to be expected, but that’s also the nice thing about being able to pick and choose which communities you interact with.
Reddit is fucked, all social media the rich have their hooks into and they have no short term incentive to run it ethically.
r/theredleft is still a sub i lurk on even though i vowed to myself that i’ll never actually interact with anything on reddit
not much of an achievement when the referee is CIA
4chan, despite their whining, are probably the most obvious and biggest users of reddit. Why wouldn’t they be? Reddit is friendly to everything 90% of 4chan posters want to talk about. For the rest, they have 4chan.
A bunch of 4channers are people banned from r*ddit who then shit up 4chan even more than it can already be shitted up. There’s a noticeable change when a major ban occurs over there, such as when the incel sub got banned. The other major events were the 2016 election and Gamergate.
damn have we been using the same reddit? i swear i left because reddit is liberal land and it pisses me off
You just need to go to any
or location-related sub
s to immediately be exposed to dangerous levels of
.
R/Europe is probably where all the pol posters go
Whatya mean? Why that sub I have not seen that there but their mods are conservatives of the types that delete posts networking to stop chat control.
Liberal land? You seem to be looking at this the same way the people you dislike are, looking left and right from inside the collective asshole of the rich. You got to back straight up out of the colon before you can get your bearings.
idk man i go to any reddit comment section and it’s all libs shouting slogans and getting thousands of upvotes. the platform is definitely skewed liberal but most gamer and europe subs are somewhat hitlerite adjacent.
Many of those libs are operating up the colon of the rich as well. Somehow trusting the establishment to beat the republicans, to say nothing of restoring our former glory.
Half of what I did on there was argue for real reform candidates, to deaf ears, shouted down by partisans using ad hominems, on lemmy here now too I would add.
The country seems hopeless, we need organization to take the d party in 2028 and run a muscular aggressive reform campaign. Late as it may be with r rigging already in place.
i’m doing my part, but i’m not american. the left wing in my country is showing promise: our main (albeit a bit cultish) socialist party has expanded beyond its home state, which is a major achievement to make in a place with a staunch right wing culture. as much as i dislike reformism, i try my best to support my local leftist candidates for regional and national elections. it ain’t much, but it’s honest work. although my community outreach isn’t the best. america really needs a miracle right now, things aren’t looking good.
The left parties are near all seized by conservatives, and the rest, like france unbowed, cannot get their shit together to run a populist reform campaign.
In the us, any time a reformer wins the d and r establishments both gang up on them to prevent the precedent showing there is another way, most visible in reform prosecutors.
We need coalitions of reformers cooperating on what we agree on, controlling a party. Country populism is different than city populism, but they both do not want the rich to steal their lunch, or corps to poison their water to make or save a buck.
Somehow the few left parties get bogged down in differences while the right falls in line. With strong leadership and organization we could win even now though.
man, the leftist situation in america sounds rough. down here things are way better, our main socialist party (that outright says it’s socialist) is half trots and half everyone else, but they have little to no conservatives as part of it, and are decently progressive concerning social issues. they’ve been growing in size and could finally afford to spread out nationwide this year (yay!). our socialist-adjacent and the biggest “left” wing party (more like solid center, they’re socdems) is doing pretty well too. although this election, due to our country being so afraid of trump’s influence that they let the centre-right party win in a landslide, they gained no seats in parliament.
Somehow the few left parties get bogged down in differences while the right falls in line.
there isn’t much on the right to fight over aside from social issues. plus, conformity is a core tenant; either fall in line or get flamed. the western civilization is directly at odds with any level of leftist organization, and because sectarianism is so widespread among leftists, we fight amongst ourselves and take each other down before we even get the chance to actually make a difference.
Not surprising, but I dont think CIA run Reddit is waiting for legitimate reasons to ban leftist subs. They will use any opportunities like this to do what they already wanted to do but with less backlash.
Sorry to be off topic, but I love the combo of your username and profile pic. They work together well.
Thanks! Was going for something that would make the comrades chuckle and the libs mald
Well, I laughed, so mission accomplished, comrade. I just love that particular Stalin pic in general, tbh. It’s so cute.
I hope they don’t do that here. I’d feel bad if i had to ban main if a bunch of my posts there got mass reported.
@Infamousblt@hexbear.net I can’t believe you reported my comment as “EBIL SISSYPEE TANKIE”

@ThermonuclearEgg@hexbear.net I can’t believe you reported my comment as “comment does not include “beanis””

@Lussy@hexbear.net thats incredibly mean of you to report my comment as “commie”
At least get it right; “ebil Stalinist Stalin-Cult leader”

@Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net I can’t believe you correctly reported my comment as “EBIL SISSYPEE STANKIE”
That is all.
Hence why you have to use parallel structures that you control.
Hey 4chan, you should do that here, get hexbear banned! It would be epic!
Those calling you the tankie triad aren’t 4chan people???
I dunno I didn’t see any Groypers.
Honestly anyone who uses reddit and has Bad Things happen to their community deserves it at this point
Why would 4chan even care about the deprogram? The median age of that sub must be 15, and they were gonna get themselves banned soon enough anyway.
But I guess that’s how pathetic all this stuff is (I’m not above it myself I’m also way too online)
Won’t be enough
We are clearly not balling hard enough
I used to be a mod of that subreddit lol
