Fuck you reddit 2.0, took you long enough. Thanks though, we’ll stop seeing your crap posters pollute our comment section from now on.

90% of people we ban come from world. Very funny that they said they saw a rise of hate speech from our instance though considering the worlders we ban are fucking genocidal maniacs and fascists. You can check the modlog (it’s unfortunately federated), we are one of the tamest instances when it comes to banning people and deleting comments/posts.

For any worlder that was based and liked interacting with lemmygrad (you will notice we did not ban good faith participants), I recommend you make an account on a third-party instance that federates with us, like ml or ee until they also defederate from us because we have principles 🙃

Fuck israel, Palestine will be free a month from now mark my words 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

On top of that, for the worlders finally breathing free again now that the scary tankies are away, you think the USSR wasn’t communist or whatever. You base that on whatever you’ve been taught in school. We’ve read things. We’ve actually gone beyond whatever our high school teachers said and looked into the USSR for ourselves. If you’re not cowards you will debate us about communism and “totalitarian” regimes, we’ll wipe the floor with you. Bet you don’t even know where the world totalitarian comes from or who coined it without looking it up.

And we retain our perfect track record of not blocking real instances while you further isolate yourselves from anything that might cause you some amount of discomfort. Really good democracy you got going there where wannabe tech bros instance admins decide for you what you’re allowed to see, must be those liberal values I hear so much about.

    What happened in Hungary 1956 was a fascist counter-revolutionary uprising, an attempt to overthrow the worker’s state and usher capitalism back in.

    We are now in 2023, there are plenty of sources out there that you can use to educate yourself about this history, you don’t need to keep clinging to anti-communist myths.

    Do you think that right wingers, reactionaries and the most rabid anti-communists today would be celebrating and mythologizing those events the way they do if they really aimed at establishing “democratic socialism”? You may as well claim Gorbachev was trying to establish “democratic socialism”, it is just as absurd a narrative.

    There was already democratic socialism in Hungary and in the USSR. Socialism is true democracy: workers’ democracy, NOT liberal “democracy”. The so-called “democratic socialism” term used by the western left is merely a euphemism for social democracy, which is inherently capitalist.

        Demands means absolutely nothing by itself. Especially demands from the liberal sympathisers. Look at solidarność in Poland. They won but of their famous 21 demands literally just a single one was fulfilled. Rest changed into poverty, suicide, mass unemployment and shock therapy in the meantime, and solidarność itself was and still is used to crush the working class power.
