rule when .ml simps for putin(media.kbin.earth)

A decent bit, I try to make it a point to correct misconceptions surrounding Marxism when I see them. I truly believe the biggest source of conflict on Lemmy is talking past each other, most people agree on the fundamentals, ergo correcting misconceptions when I see them is helpful to fostering a less toxic and less divisive environment.

Hopefully.

What he’s selling isn’t socialism, it’s authoritarianism. Socialist ideals are already prominent here and his apologia for brutally oppressive regimes does the opposite of fostering a less toxic or less divisive environment.

I’m aware that cowbee isn’t a socialist. However, my discussions with them have made me appreciate leftist ideologies a bit more than i used to. Particularly socialism. I still think communism is too extreme and a recipe for failure

Also, i think most criticisms of Marxism on Lemmy is the echo chamber echoing rather actual rebuttals
