If voting didn’t matter they wouldn’t spend so much money trying to influence your choice. So vote (for a better world).

They know voting matters. That’s why they don’t want you doing it. They’re nothing more than propaganda purposed to influence American elections.

They’re bought-and-paid-for pawns. So point and laugh while you vote against what they all stand for.

They’re a authoritarian bootlickers as well, so that’s no big surprise.

I just found it so deliciously ironic that the place where people come from all across the internet to post about the powertripping bastards.... is run by power tripping bastards lol

Good job, tankies. You helped to get a meme president elected to pwn the libs.

That’s exactly what they wanted. It wasn’t an accident.

That's one way to put it. Seems like they just want the West to collapse as justice for, well, most of history. Not that I blame them, on principle, but it's a fairly simplistic view. Collapsing world powers are typically bad business for the world in general.

Problem with personifying a broad collection of peoples over centuries. It makes sense if "The West" was a dude, not every living soul who happens to be in a certain place at a certain time on earth.

They think that somehow socialism (whatever that means) will magically emerge once Trump brings about the downfall of the US. That's why they hate the Democrats so much. And of course they hate democracy as a principle because deep down they just want to be part of the ruling class.

They don't actually think socialism will take over.

They want to demonstrate that the only way forward is Chinese/Soviet/NK style authoritarianism. They want the US to collapse into warlords.

I made a write-up earlier on YPTB showing how the mods on LSC are overreaching even within the repressive rules they write to stifle criticism – and totally ignoring them themselves.

24

Oh they know exactly what they’re doing. Late Stage Capitalism is a little slice of .ml’s authoritarian rhetoric right there on .world. And they 100% stand against the concept of free elections and freedom of speech.

26

I didn't even realize how bad it was until I made comments on a voter suppression thread and then systematically had all of my commenta deleted and THEN argued with by the mod who deleted them in a show of true democratic debate.

After a couple days they just banned me without cause. Think you can still go and see the mod arguing with "comment deleted by moderators"

They turned into a splinter community for .ml. Just block the entire instance it’s on. There’s nothing worthwhile in that shithole.

That forum is part of a right wing grooming system. It's best to just block them and move on.

I have them blocked. However they still show up in mod-logs. And the irony of them claiming to be anti-authoritarian bootlickers, while systematically removing anyone that disagrees with their propaganda.

It’s comical.

Voting matters. Voting is also the least impactful thing you as an individual can do, but the most impactful thing a peaceful collective can do.

Next best is organized protests but our feudal overlords have drones and we have the cajones of a frijole (and deported most of the people who could translate that for you)

Vote in the general election. Vote in primaries. Canvass for primary candidates. Join their campaigns. Attend local council meetings. Run for local office. Organize protests. Organize your workplace. Organize mutual aid in your neighborhood. Radicalize your friends and neighbors. Join a militia. Start a militia. Start a zine. Start a social media page.

You can do all those things. Voting strategically doesn't invalidate all your other efforts, and it takes a couple hours every couple years. There's no reason not to.

As a communist myself, voting does matter. It shouldn't be the only thing you do, but it's good to slightly slow down fascism while building your revolutionary momentum.

14

More of the bullshit.

For the record, this person was banned as well. That walled garden of theirs must stink like hot ass from all the smug fart-smelling douchebags circle jerking over their beloved authoritarian dickead mods flexing their hypocrisy.

There's been drama all day, let's just make a new community

Holy shit the modlogs are full of them removing everyone that disagrees with them. I think the mods of that community are living their fucking minds! We might be seeing the effects of sociopaths off their meds in real-time.

It definitely feels nostalgic how much intra-lemmy drama exists, reminds me of forum drama.

Me too. We need a subreddit drama community.

I’ve been thinking of making a Late Stage Douchebaggery community to showcase the hypocrisy of their coward mods.
