I've been very curious about it, and I believe there is no better way than to ask you computer geniuses for information.

This was recommended to me via the same channel where I am watching a doc about Mountain Dialect. Nothing explicitly special, but it's nice to put faces and real human connection to the struggle.

Also these videos have been making me realize just how much of classism against rednecks and hillbillies is left over from anti Celtic sentiment. (but that's more of a sidenote)

EDIT: Spelling

I am having issues finding a pdf that doesn't have me sign up for a pdf library membership, do y'all have one? Are these memberships safe?

I don't really have a name or genre but it's certain games like 40K, Fallout, Civ/HoI/all the other ones.

Am I the only one to notice these weird trends of political distribution? Is it just me?

Chrome lists prolewiki as a dangerous website... Lmao

No but is this anything to worry about that isn't google trying to avert us from radicalization?

Okay so I was scrolling through the PSL's info page, and it is stated that they are to denuclearize the power grid. Why is this? I was under the impression that Nuclear Energy is the much more sustainable and frankly realistic source of power--even without Molten Salt Reactors and Thorium based ones.

 Im finding it most orgs tend to stay away from Nuclear energy due to fear mongering from fossil fuel industries; Thus its stain in the imperial core, reaching from liberals to western "leftists". But I am surprised the PSL, a radical organization, is anti-nuclear.

   FYI this isn't a deal breaker or anything--they seem to be taking the lead for vanguard party--just was curious of the stance on nuclear energy.

My mom bought this random from a sale at the library for a buck. As it turns out, it's a Marxist work, at least it seems like it. Started off in the Foreword quoting Marx, and talks of the bourgeoisie pushing for railway due to the Corn Tax and efficiency. And now there's a Railroad community. all in like 3 days what's the odds? Just wanted to share, the book's pretty good so far.

As you have all noticed, this seems to be a point of contention here. This is a good thing, since it means someone will learn something.

Now we seem to be all over the place, with this general area of thought, provoking many questions. Whether or not PatSocs are socially conservative, what is position on social conservatism? Many of us are very young, both in age and ML experience, so an online discussion would be a great learning tool.

1. Are socially conservative individuals allowed to be apart of the leftist movement?

• A. Are socially conservative individuals victims of bourgeois propaganda?

-B. If socially conservative people are turned away by the left, where do they go?

-C. How high of a position would a social conservative be allowed in a ML party?

-D. How has or will MLs educate socially conservative folk?

-E. &tc, &tc.

1. What exactly is Patriotism?

-A. Does patriotism depend on culture?

-B Is possible for a distinction between patriotism for a country and wanting to abolish the state?

-C. Is patriotism corrupted in the Core?

-D How have post imperialist countries with Communist experiments built patriotism?

-E. &Tc &TC

1. Who even are the PatSocs?

-A. If the label is too convuluted, should we make a distinction between Maupin and American exceptionalists?

-B. Who of the leaders do we consider MLs?

-C. Should patriotic socialist be distinct from socialism or is inherent in socialism?

-D. How much do WE even know if PatSocs?

-E. &Tc, &tc

We can look at the USSR and GDR for these questions. Remember the Hammer and Sickel came from somewhere.

Things to look out for about the US:

-It is the imperialist power, AND a settler state.

-Low levels of cultural development

-The culture that is there is taken from marginalized groups.

-Americas are the most propagandized people in the World.

-It is huge and incredibly diverse

More questions about the US could follow:

-Should the US be balkanized? If so how does patriotism be built in balkanized regions?

-How does land back go about? Will indigenous countries emerge, and if so should we reconsider American MLs as different MLs for the Regions in North America.

-If we see different nations and regions in North America how does that affect culture? Is the question of how we view the land a prerequisite to discussing patriotism, is it contradictory to call yourself an American Patriot if you decide to divide up the land until regions?

There is so much potential for deep political for North American based Comrades, this is a rabbit hole I do want to delve into. I'll cross post this to GZD but I want it mainly on Leftist Infighting.

Edit: spacing issues

I believe for my own sanity and worth while that I'll restrict myself to occasional Club Hub posts. I really have not had a break in a while, but I still do believe there to be an importance of this Community. I will probably do a Newsletter sort of thing that will consolidate my thoughts about communities. Have a good one!

I have been really into the aspect of growing potatoes in buckets for multiple reasons: For one it seems cheap enough; Secondly the nature of being able to have buckets as a mobilized garden could be great in so many areas. Don’t have the time or energy to cultivate your soil? Bucket. Live in the city surrounded by pavement? Bucket. Are you a renter who can’t grow plants or you don’t even know if you can live there next month, so investing in gardening would be pointless? Bucket. Ever accidentally killed a prominent figure, so you spend your life on the run, moving from country to country never knowing the simple life you once lived but still want to follow your childhood dream of gardening? Bucket.

It seems to be that for one pound of potatoes, you’ll get 7 lbs back. It being a root plant, watch its moisture. Cut a chived(?) potato in half and put charcoal on the wound so it doesn’t rot. What’s y’alls take on this.

I was supposed to get the ball rolling yesterday for this to happen today but my life just took a slam to the face, so from comrade to comrade understand me here.

From today to tomorrow, I would like to see what each of us making a post on TRG would do for its content flow, for the next week or so. It has been stagnant for the past week so I'm hoping if we can get it leaking out just a little bit, consistently, that it would help. Oh yeah, here's thelink

I am realizing the marketing for Club Hub itself won't bring the traction, it's both redundant and unsuccessful. It is unsuccessful since people will get annoyed by the constant bombardment of begging to join, as I have so experienced (whoops). It is redundant because it has enough "monthly viewers" that it should pop up on local view when we post on here. On that last note what we really need to do is to get people who wanna make a community, like for example the based Poland-ball to make that announcement directly as a post on ClubHub. I think I will make a new thread each week for suggestions, to feed the a l g o r i t h i m.

I'm so happy somebody read my mind about making a community for analyzing production, it's good to see all of us comrades on the same page of bettering Lemmy!

Yes I did just copy and paste the answers:

-theory discussion

-study groups

-community about nature/birding,

-one about learning Russian.

-Gardening: The Revolutionary Garden

-Tea community

-Irish community

-Beer Brewing

-A community for sharing material (memes videos posters ideas whatever) for radicalizing libs:

-Programming

-Based Polandball.

-Math, science, philosophy

Okay so I was wondering why Stalin got the most flack of the Cold War propaganda, at least in my experience growing up in the U.S., He's the only Soviet Leader we were "taught" about. Sorry if this is dumb.

Okay, I am planning on maybe next Sunday we could try out the "brigade" of TRG. Why TRG to test my plan for brigading? Well for starters, wanting a garden club is what got me on this path but also it happens to have the right amount of activity and inactivity to see how much this "brigade" will help, and a garden club seemed to garner the most traction from the first post.

I almost forgot, I probably wont do much for club hub tomorrow since my internet access is limited and everything is closed for Easter.

Farewell and Oh Comrade, My Comrades

Overall all the genres I have noticed going through the backlogs of Lemmygrad. -Archives: Gone too soon.

-Shitposting: Does it even need an introduction?

-Dunking on Libs: (sigh)

-Dunking on non ML leftists: Usually Anarchists or MLMs.

-Sexuality: One of the largest genres, with the nature of it, its communities probably just need time and Lemmygrad’s own population to grow.

-Neurodiversity: There’s an actual community for NDs and the rest are for autism, weirdly no adhd, (I got that one if you couldn’t tell, lol)

-Training Grounds: A genre that is based around improvement of the mind and body, basically like working out, working on organizing skills, a REAL self help if you will.

-Alternative Browser and Medias: Like Linux and Fediverse, basically fuck the tech giants.

-Programming: I’m in.

-Technology: Sort of like programming but more broad, IDK computer stuff, sorry guys.

-Communist Parties in Your Area: Different Parties

-Anti-American Empire: Boo!

-ML Education: Lenin would be so proud.

-National Culture: Like different countries and regions.

-Languages: For learning or speaking different languages.

-Anime Stuff: Communities around anime or just japanese-esc fanbases.

-The Internet Classics: Your good ole reddit classics, brought back to you in Lemmyvision.

-Religion: Self explanatory

-Biology: Cool animal and ecosystem stuff.

-Gardening: Grow your own grain in Stalin’s Sizeable Spoon Simulator!

-Australia: A user named Nique, has made lots of communities around Australia. So if you are interested in Australia, they’re your go to.

-AESthetics: Different types of art and style communities, I just realized there was AES in aesthetics so that’s fun.

-Boulevard of Broken Dreams: Sort of miscellaneous communities with either, huge subscribers bases w/ no posts, or just too old to tell the tale, will still probably look at them to

-Old Non ML Groups: Can some of you elders here explain why there are communities for Anprims on a ML site?

-Miscellaneous: I think I’ll just keep a hold of the old misc. communities and wait to see if someone asks about a community they would like that could be in there.

This is sort of rushed since I gotta go soon, and there may be more but maybe this will give you guys ideas. I’ll probably make more direct posts about each genre later.

Farewell, and Oh Comrade, My Comrades!

EDIT: Here are some genres I have skipped over in the rush, or may have missed in general, (woah, do the words general and genre have the same roots, weird).

-Wargaming/Real Time Strategy: mainly HOI4

-Gaming: And I was just about to get my 30 day chip for Mtn Dew

-Commie Music: Liberators of pop-centric cultures

First off, please forgive me for my absence yesterday, life happens, secondly I am conjuring ideas to make community populating more efficient.

  Okay I have an idea to consolidate things in our Rallying Brigade phase. To lighten the load, since there aren’t that many communities on Lemmygrad just yet, we should compile or just look over those established ones. This way, we could just group together older communities that fill a genre instead of a niche. I Think I will start off with a master post, then have a separate genre based post with links to each community. It might take me a bit to look over each community so don’t get too excited.

  Oh and with the Local view on, I realize I could minimize the cross posts to /c/communism, to reduce the spam just a little bit, ;)

Farewell, and Oh Comrade, My Comrades!!

Here we can collect the data for desired communities, then later we will explore if those communities exist or not (I am thinking of making a checklist to explain my thinking)
