I was reading some theory yesterday (Obama if you're interested) and there was a really interesting point they made where they said "when they go low, we go high". Really resonated with me. Something to think about.
I'm way far left of liberal btw.
Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.
A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

I would have totally voted for Obama a third time if I could
I don't care that it's illegal, I wanted him to run a third time and maybe even a fourth
I'm ready to vote right now!
we go high
shit so I am following Obama Thought
Communism is good on paper but Marx never accounted for human nature!
No I've never read any of his books...
Surplus value? Is that the name of a thrift store?
Come on down to Surplus Value and receive all the rewards and none of the burdens! No project begins without Surplus Value.
Surplus Value, part of the Capital Inc. Family.
Those hexbears really take it too far, wasn't it Marx who said
We have no issue with imperialism and we ask no issue with imperialism from you. When our turn comes, we shall not make late rent payments.
The other day I was looking up what Lenin said about Revolutionary Defeatism and it's like reading it there's no way he wouldn't have spammed PPB at people lol

This is an instance of high-flown phraseology with which Trotsky always justifies opportunism.
The phrase-bandying Trotsky has completely lost his bearings on a simple issue.
(Bukvoyed and Semkovsky give more direct expression to the “thought”, or rather want of thought, which they share with Trotsky.)
Had Bukvoyed and Trotsky done a little thinking, they would have realised that they have adopted the viewpoint on the war held by governments and the bourgeoisie, i.e., that they cringe to the “political methodology of social-patriotism”, to use Trotsky’s pretentious language
Many of them will reply that it is impossible, as Kautsky has done, thereby fully proving his social-chauvinism.
Lenin was a poster.
the funniest thing about reading Lenin is the sense that you're reading forum drama from a hundred years ago and that he never stops dunking. hence my thesis that theory is the highest form of dunk.
If Twitter had existed in 1905 there would have been not leftist revolutions in the 20th century because no one on the left would ever have logged off.
Theory: When you do years of research, countless revisions, peer review, and finally publish 500 pages of dense academic work to prove OP is wrong.
They don’t even own a real bear! They are phony!
And those bears ain't even hexed!
Amen!
You've unlocked hexbear's deep lore
I've had a bear eat all my sugar snap peas and shit in my garden, does that count?
I'm as leftist as they come, but anything that goes against in any way is clearly CCP and/or Kremlin propaganda.
classic hexbear brigaders in this thread 🙄
They're just sooo cringe
When you post in another instance this is called brigading I am very smart
I know, right? I'm as left wing as they come (voted for Biden) and i can't understand why these so-called liberals don't want to send cluster munitions to Ukraine. It's like they're Republicans! I bet they don't even think that January 6th was the greatest tragedy our country ever faced
I have also read calls to put Nazis Infront of walls. I am very left (I watch every Vaush Stream and Contra Points video) but how can anyone pretend to be a leftist and call for measures like this? Killing Nazis would make us as bad as they are. We need to engage in civil discourse with them and beat them in the marketplace of ideas.
/s
a good bit doesn't need the tag because it's funnier if someone takes it seriously
Just in general I think we need to associate more with Vaush community who is the only leftist community that recognized the value that landlords and local sheriff's offices provide.
You just need to put more leftist in these sheriff offices and in the US military so we can win the Battle of ideas.
So what if you have to evict your neighbors... At the end of the day you can convince other people at the sheriff's office to vote for Biden and mayor Pete in 2028
"Hexbear.net," a communist website known for posting images of pigs defecating on their own genitals, oddly echoes George Orwell's "Animal Farm." Just as the animals' rebellion against human oppression leads to their own corrupt rule, the website's subversive culture might inadvertently reveal the limitations of its revolutionary spirit as shock value replaces genuine discourse.
The similarity lies in the disillusionment arising from the erosion of original intentions. Both contexts expose how movements can devolve into self-serving entities that mock the principles they stand for. "Animal Farm" and Hexbear.net serve as cautionary tales, reminding us that the pursuit of ideals requires vigilance and self-awareness to prevent meaningful change from being compromised.
Hi
I'm as liberal as they come and even I think that pig poop balls is gross and authoritarian is bad. And no I don't need to read theory, I grew up in the school of hard knocks so I know what it's like fr fr.
I became a tankie to get a free tank but no tank came in the mail.
So now I'm not a tankie but still have no tank. Time for a "why I 'left' the left" post.
"Why I left the left" posts are all well and good, but how about we get some "Why I right the right" posts
Stir things up a little
Is this irony or..?
Death to NATO refers to the dissolution of NATO itself, it is not a call to actually kill anyone.
In reference to landlords, I mean personally I'm with you on that, but the alternative is reeducation, which the right will ultimately view and espouse as prison. You cannot be anticapitalist and pro-landlord, the ideas oppose each other at their cores.
It's from a lemmygrad user and posted in lemmygrad, so I think it's safe to say it's a joke. They're riffing on the other instances wanting to defederate from us, when we all know that's not gonna happen here
OP is a lemmygrad admin trolling.
Uh?
I think OP is very reasonable. There are too many tankies on Hexbear. We don't want to risk them coming over to Lemmygrad. It would be really annoying to deal with them every Friday in the weekly Obama appreciation post.
THERE'S A WEEKLY OBUMMER POST!?!?!?
I am there.
Wow Death Threats to the people who provide housing with their rightfully owned Private Property? That isn't the way things work here in my Liberal Bubble. Get banned nazi!
I hope all the instances get deerated.
edit: I'm being informed that this is not what "defederate" means
About that you might ask someone called Josip Broz, i heard he have good ideas how to defederate places in that meaning?
