This is kind of meta, I guess, I didn't see anything saying that wasn't allowed.

Hello. I'm just checking to see how many socialists are alive on this side of Lemmy (not hexbear or lemmygrad). I don't see many comments or posts except for ones from Usg+eussz* or Unequal Exchange.

not specifically on this comm, but I'm just active in general

I'm not

Sup

Yeah, this place seems dead.

Heyoo

Surely more than 5

Idk I mostly sit on my ass and post on the Internet actually. Not really active.

All of Lemmy seems dead if you’re used to the traffic on corporate social media.

Also, people tend not to respond to “is anybody here” posts on Lemmy. You can already tell if anyone is here by looking at the post history and the sidebar:

I want to be on the funny list too glowie guy.

Legit though ye I'm here just don't got much to say. Worker democracy now. We should provide the requirements for life to everyone as a default.

I see.

Nice try, FBI.

Here, but as davel stated these are pointless. The sidebar of all comms shows activity.

I used to be on Lemmy like two years ago in hexbear and I was on the deprogram on reddit back in the day, made a few shitposts that were popular.

I'm going to put you on my list of honor, honorable one.

lol of couirse its dead. The average person doesnt give a fuck about socialism OR lemmy. And then the average socialist doeosnt give a fuck about socialism either.

And them to top it all off the socialists who actually do give a fuck about socialism like the Naxalites, the FARCs , thhe Filippino Maoists, and the PFLP theyre being bombed out snd slaughtered to the point that they barely have acces to something like Lemmy.

Its dead cause .... it just has to be based on what Ive proven lol.

We gotta change this.

I got a landlord to support, I cant post 24/7.

Dead it is. Psycholocomotor has declared it so!

((()))

Class struggle isn't dead. It's just that the people fighting don't look like socialists.

In the core, imperialism has created a labor aristocracy, but it's shrinking as the need for ever higher profits causes the bourgeoisie of the global North to increase the exploitation of workers in the core. They are unsustainably cannibalizing the group that actually consumes most of the commodities produced by the global imperialist system which will lead to a global crisis of overproduction. We're heading unstoppably into this crisis, it's just that the ideas haven't caught up. Workers in the core are, very slowly, waking up from their treat-induced class-coma. Western leftists are dead, but will come back.

In the periphery, the fight is against neocolonialism is the primary concern for workers and the fight against their own bourgeoisie is secondary or has to be paused, like in Iran. Communists might not be that common, but people willing to fight colonialism are common all throughout the global South.

It’s just that the people fighting don’t look like socialists.

....Always remember kids , suddenly the Naxalites , FARC and PFLP magically dont exist right now cause our magical master race king psycholocomotor said so! 😂🤣

Are these parentheses racist in nature?

Don't necessarily look like socialists, c'mon, bruh, there was nothing that indicated I didn't support those groups as well. I do wish there was more communist opposition to international capitalism I'm just stating that there isn't as much of them around in the post-cold War era.

And Im stating that if your 'communist group' doesnt look like the FARC or Naxalites or the PFLP currently do? They aremt ACTUALLY a communitst group as far as Im concerned.

The capitalists are genociding us ALREADY in our current status quo.... Time to turn this back on them. No more time for questions , games , or anything else.

Well, that's ineffectual if it prevents you from having solidarity with the Axis of Resistance, the Alliance of Sahel States, the DRC in the conflict with Rwanda, Russia in ending the war against the Western-backed Ukrainian government, and the Sudanese Armed Forces against the UAE-backed RSF. We should put our support behind all anti-imperialist groups.
