Leftism
Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!
Rules:
- Absolutely no fascism, right wing extremism, genocide denial, etc.
- Unconditional support of authoritarians will not be tolerated
- Good faith discussion about ideologies is encouraged, but no sectarianism
- No brocialism/sexism
- No ableism
- No TERFs/ anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric
- No racism
- No trolling
- No insults, dunking, or personal attacks
- No posting of misinformation, disinformation, or fake news
- Mods have final say
Posting Expectations:
- Comics/memes/shitposts/propaganda are only allowed on weekends
- Try to avoid liberalism unless discussing electoral politics. Even then, try to focus on tactical agreement towards leftist goals
- Only one meta post seeking consensus per person per day
- Posts about a particular ideology are ok, but remember the rules above
- Remember that there is no “right way” to implement leftist theory. This rule does not prevent academic criticism.
- Try to avoid extremely sensitive topics unless approaching them with appropriate care for intersectionality. Use your best judgement, and be prepared to provide respectable sources when having these discussions. Wikipedia is not an acceptable source in these cases.
- Post titles must be meaningful and relevant, except on weekends

Damn, what a great reference. I really wish I had this during our 3.5 month unionizing drive because those motherfuckers tried ALL OF THIS.
I'm proud to report that three weeks ago we won our union vote by a margin of 5:1. Our union organizers all said they've never seen a success ratio like that in their careers. We're a very spirited community hospital.
congrats! The most difficult part is over, now's the time to support the bargaining committee and keep support high! My campaign is extremely close to going public, and we're expecting to make waves
Thanks! We're all happy. But it's not over for us just yet. The corporation that owns our hospital (Tenet Healthcare) is notorious for shenanigans, and we're anticipating they'll try to drag this out to see if they can induce us to revote in a year because we're dissatisfied with the union. (I think our vote margin finally got them to give up on just trying to make us all so miserable that we quit.) But we'll keep fighting. We live here; this is OUR hospital.
I wish you all the best in your campaign. I think the only advice from my experience that I would offer is be willing to extend grace. Patience with the ignorance and stubbornness of some of our coworkers bought us a lot of new yes votes by the end of our campaign. Especially when they were actively receiving the opposite from our administration.
