I don't really want to link the discord server and cause issues for it, so if that's an issue for rule one I'm sorry, please remove the post. I just had to share with someone.

Fruit of their labour? Tell that to the factory worker earning pennies while the company’s stocks soar. How about those clocking in 70-hour weeks but can barely pay rent while some execs vacation on yachts? Question that disparity. Communism’s not taking from the hard-working; it’s about evening out those stark imbalances.

Leaders and workers? We need both, equally. Just because someone’s not in the spotlight doesn’t mean they’re not driving the show. And to think there’s a limited supply of those who ‘make things work’? Ever consider that not everyone gets the chance to lead?

A starving man shouldn’t have to ask for food in the first place. Instead of judging, maybe ask why they’re hungry. We shouldn’t pat ourselves on the back just because, once in a while, we toss someone a bone. Government’s size isn’t the issue; it’s about its priorities.

And the family bit? Good families don’t keep scorecards. They uplift, share, and stand together. They don’t always wait for someone to ‘earn their keep’. Why? Because they care. That’s not immaturity; it’s unity.

Equating leaving communism to outgrowing family? Sounds like someone's confusing depth with adolescence.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
