  • You can say whatever you want, your actions are what matter, and what you did is you denied the genocide carried out by the democrats and your suggestion to stop it, was to vote for democrats who are running on continuing the genocide.
    Your arguments never managed to engage with what anyone else wrote and instead you kept repeating the same thing again and again - that thing being a weird strawman that no one was arguing for.

    So I dont really see any Marx in you, you are quite obviously dogshit at rhetorics. Plenty of Hitler particles though.


  • Well I would love to move on to another discussion and point out the many faulty assumptions and assertions you have made there, but to do that we have to do what I have described many times already. You seem to struggle with reason and civil discussion, consider looking inwards to deal with you having a hard time with simple challenges to your beliefs and a pattern of changing the topic instead of engaging with the text at hand, when that text refutes your pointless vibes-based anecdotal evidence.

    You are making a claim but you have no proof for it. What hasn’t worked “here” whereever that is? If you are talking about socialism in the east block it very clearly did work. It was massively popular, improved the living conditions for the population and only fell after decades of capitalist subversion and even then it had to be done through a military coup. And, as the evidence available shows, it is missed today.
    Elsewhere it is still massively succesful to this very day.
    So I dont understand your question, it seems to be based on a completely fallacious understanding of the world.






  • this is condescending

    Correct, you are behaving poorly so I am treating you in kind

    Distracting from the main point

    The only one distracting from anything is you. You are the one who seeks discussion and then flees at challenge, I am holding you to it.

    You are now attempting to give yourself a plausible exit where you can save face, which is very funny since the only audience is you and me, yet your ego can still not handle it. Sadly the exit-strategy you’ve sought is ill-fitting, since both you and I are aware that you are the one who has been avoiding discussion, instead seeking to change the subject at every turn. It is no surprise that you would do something like this, you seem to be a fucking idiot.
    I still hold out hope you will be able to do the bare minimum, but I cannot be disappointed by you anymore.





  • Then why don’t we have this as our current form of government? How to you propose to get everyone to buy in to this in the US? If you can’t reduce it to practice, this is just impractical Internet bullshit talk.

    Finish your argument before you start a new one sweetie.

    For us to be able to go deeper into discussion we need to first agree on the facts that form the basis of the discussion, which we do not at the moment. You have to either accept that your point was wrong and integrate that acceptance into your line of argument or argue for your point being correct - This is done by either supplying sufficient empirical data that helps create some synthesis with the rest of the data or you go through the given data and explain why it is faulty or insufficient as a basis for a rebuttal.

    As the rest of the comment you are responding to explains, you have still yet to do this.





  • I joined because I wanted access to a reddit-style place that wasn’t part of the neoliberal echo chamber that is culture in the imperial core, but I had gotten tired of the bear site.

    I like the instance, I like the moderation, I like how its widely federated. I wish it did not have downvotes like hexbear does, but I find the .ml community to be much better in general, though a bit too sectarian at times.

    I prefer .ml to hexbear because hexbear has big time “midwestern covid conscious lesbian bar” vibes at times.

    My main issue with .ml is how other instances act. It’s pretty common to see ridiculous lies about .ml with a bunch of upvotes and the OP is never able to provide any proof when asked for it. But people still believe it because it’s .ml
    Same with how a lot of users’ brains will shut down when they see anything they disagree with posted by someone from this instance. All rationality goes out the window and they retreat to a frustrating ad hominem of “you’re using this instance, thus I dont have to take it seriously” - “ml detected, opinion disregarded” it’s so sad to see people be so scared.

    I also see users from other instances cry about .ml moderation. Personally I feel like it is pretty evenhanded and fair, but moderation will always skew against outsiders. I’ve been banned from some communities due to incivility while the equally uncivil person I was replying to was not. That’s just how it is everywhere, I dont go about pretending like thats some special feature of .world.

    So all in all I like it and my issue with it is mainly other instances.
