Valeriano Orobón Fernández, born on this day in 1901, was a Spanish anarcho-syndicalist theoretician, trade union activist, translator, and poet who wrote the lyrics of the revolutionary song "A Las Barricadas".
Orobón believed in the organizational power of unions, believe that they would have a major role in reorganizing society in a more libertarian fashion. Orobón was also strongly opposed to the communist (i.e., Soviet) ideas in Spain during the Spanish Civil War.
Shortly before his untimely death from tuberculosis, Orobón wrote the words of "A Las Barricadas" to the tune of "Warszawianka 1905 roku", itself a well-known Polish revolutionary song. The anti-fascist tune became the anthem of the Confederación Nacional del Trabajo (CNT), and one of the most popular songs of the Spanish anarchists during the Civil War.

TIL I'm an admin, I guess lol
And yea, I don't recommend engaging. They sometimes correctly lash out at libs for believing in electoralism or some other bad lib takes, but then they seem to lash out even harder at Communists, and have these weird conspiracy theory-level baseless accusations of Russia and China using Lemmy for propaganda reasons.
That's on top of the general use of homophobic insults (xyz sucks dick, etc etc) and mountains of chauvanism characteristic of western "leftists."
Their modlog is really funny though, lol
