I see. Well, I guess that’s the problem with a federated social media system. Rules for the entire system, with identical subs, and never really knowing where you are.

What’s this hexbear instance about?

we are a left unity instance. we are composed mostly of MLs and anarchists, so we are opposed to imperialism

So would it be a good place for a democratic socialist?

[–] aaaaaaadjsf@hexbear.net 35 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Yes for sure. If you mean actual democratic socialist ideology, like Evo Morales, Allende or Nelson Mandela, then yes. Hexbear is a left wing unity website.

If you mean social democracy, such as the Nordic/Scandinavian countries, then probably not. Though you're always welcome to stick around and engage in good faith.

No no, not social democracy. 😅

These damn similar names!

I’m a political politician, not a politician political!!

If you agree that the west is currently the greatest threat to global socialism then this the place for you.

[–] tsonfeir@lemm.ee 8 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Well, west? I mean, I think the corrupt rich from everywhere on the globe are the problem, and while they may give lip service to the east/west, they’re all-in together.

Eeh...close enough? meow-hug

The bourgeoisie aren't anyone's friends but their own, but there are places where they are more and less in charge, and there are larger and smaller coalitions, with the larger naturally being more malicious, though they tend to export that malice further from where they rest their heads for reasons of security.

QED western imperialism

we're mostly on the revolutionary socialist side of the spectrum but yeah, you'll be fine here. the inside jokes and cultural oddities will make more sense with time. welcome! cat-trans
