A nazi is beating an innocent person to death
"Sorry, I'm a pacifist"
This is what gets to me about those who don't vote or describe themselves as "apolitical," because politics is the impact of society and culture on everyday life. To be apolitical is to feel comfortable enough in everyday living to disconnect from society, most often because of the benefits of wealth and/or white supremacy.
I'm fair and balanced. The guy with the stick looks bad in this context, but has anyone checked if the dead guy had possession charges?
last i checked kerry marshal who works at the Chase Bank said he looked like a stoner when he went in to deposit his work check
ok 👌
gulag for life, take away his citizenship, throw away the key Looked like a looser what?
Looks like they changed looser to stoner SMH
PLEASE work on your bait, I'm dying of boredom reading this.
i definitely coukd bave done a better story
It’s not political to say “Nazis are bad” It’s not political to see people just like your friends and family gunned down the streets by cops and think there’s something wrong with the system.
It’s fine to stay away from politics. It’s not fine to be complacent in the suffering of others.
Being a good person shouldn’t be a political statement. Unfortunately it seems that it has become exactly that.
His hands are clean, no blood on them, no siree. He can keep on fondling his purity, then lovingly sniffing his fingers.

I don't get it
The other comments explain it pretty well
An international (English speaking) socialist Lemmy community free of the "ML" influence of instances like lemmy.ml and lemmygrad. This is a place for undogmatic shitposting and memes from a progressive, anti-capitalist and truly anti-imperialist perspective, regardless of specific ideology.
Serious posts, news, and discussion go in c/Socialism.
If you are new to socialism, you can ask questions and find resources over on c/Socialism101.
Please don't forget to help keep this community clean by reporting rule violations, upvoting good contributions and downvoting those of low-quality!
That refers to funny image macros and means that generally videos and screenshots are not allowed. Exceptions include explicitly humorous and short videos, as well as (social media) screenshots depicting a funny situation, joke, or joke picture relating to socialist movements, theory, societal issues, or political opponents. Examples would be the classic case of humorous Tumblr or Twitter posts/threads. (and no, agitprop text does not count as a meme)
Try to keep an open mind, other schools of thought may offer points of view and analyses you haven't considered yet. Also: This is not a place for the Idealism vs. Materialism or rather Anarchism vs. Marxism debate(s), for that please visit c/AnarchismVsMarxism.
as well as condemning (their) imperialism, even if it is of the "anti-USA" flavor.
That includes so called: Social Democracy, Democratic Socialism, Dengism, Market Socialism, Patriotic Socialism, National Bolshevism, Anarcho-Capitalism etc. . Anti-Socialist people and content have no place here, as well as the variety of "Marxist"-"Leninists" seen on lemmygrad and more specifically GenZedong (actual ML's are welcome as long as they agree to the rules and don't just copy paste/larp about stuff from a hundred years ago).
The only dangerous minority is the rich.
We must constructively learn from their mistakes, while acknowledging their achievements and recognizing when they have strayed away from socialist principles.

Notable achievements in all spheres of society were made by various socialist/people's/democratic republics around the world. Mistakes, however, were made as well: bureaucratic castes of parasitic elites - as well as reactionary cults of personality - were established, many things were mismanaged and prejudice and bigotry sometimes replaced internationalism and progressiveness.
(This is not a definitive list, the spirit of the other rules still counts! Eventual duplicates with other rules are for emphasis.)
