They've defederated from a bunch for no reason including lemmyunchained.net which is what I use. But I still see posts, why is that?

I may be an anarchist, but I can admit Marx has some banger quotes.

Redditors think they're better than everyone else. Lemmy users think they're better than Redditors and everyone else. Lemmy users are one step higher on the superiority complex totem pole

Maine mentioned!

Mobile Suit Gundam is rated pg13 and features nudity, genocide, fascism, conscripted child soldiers, and plenty of adult themes. Age ratings don't mean anything. And you also don't need an R rating for something to be serious or targeted to adults

And 40k has fungus space orcs that speak in cockney accents and have the power of belief. And yet still manages to have both really goofy stories, and very serious stories. The Ahriman Omnibus being a really serious story, and the infinite and the divine being a goofy story. Both being within the same universe, but two entirely different tones

What don't get is why people think something like star wars can't have different tones. It's a big universe with a big story. Just because the originals were these scifi epics doesn't mean a different story set in the universe can't be grounded and dark. Like how 40k can be really goofy and stupid but also really serious and gritty. It depends on the specific story being told within the setting. Not the setting as a whole

Needs more content. Personally I'd like video hosting (i know thats a big ask). And some way to make instances less confusing for newcomers.

I'll say it once and I'll say it again. Even the father of capitalism thought landlords were parasitic leeches on the economy. Even the father of capitalism hated landlords

Even the father of capitalism thought landlords were parasites that only leeched off the economy

They literally all copied the soviet union's homework (Marxist-Leninism), there are other theories that haven't had the chance to be tried. Like Council Communsim, Syndicalism, Libertarian Communism, Anarchism, etc. The failure of Marxist-Leninist countries proves Marxist-Leninism doesn't work. It doesn't prove that communism doesn't work

Except me, your friendly neighborhood anarcho-communist
