Hiii there~ fellow revolutionary socialists! Ik, I have been putting this off for faaaar too long, but have finally got myself to open up mod applications!

Since the inception of this batch of communities, I haven't rly had the capacity to proactively moderate them as I'd like to (and still don't). My instance administrators took care of most of the reports and banning a few .world libs here and there usually did the job 😛 (luckily, Dengists and other such revisionists have thus far not rly invaded these communities as they did with Hexbear).

Thus, I'd like to request your help in taking over moderation and have come up with a vetting process to hand off virtually all day-to-day operations.

The "batch of communities" I keep referring to:

Here are some criteria/expectations:

You MUST:

  • be at least fluent in English (not proficient, doesn't have to be your 1st language; it's technically my 3rd language lol)
  • be a revolutionary socialist falling into the spectrum defined in the rules of the specific community
  • have a Matrix account

You SHOULD:

  • be somewhat knowledgeable with revolutionary socialism and it's concepts (again, relevant to the specific community
  • have enough time and motivation available to reasonably and regularly check on your community(/ies) (ofc in the context of what makes sense in your timezone)
  • have an account that is older than 3 months, with pre-existing history

Nice to have:

  • familiarity with Lemmy moderation tools
  • have a history of being active in the community(/ies) you'd like to mod

entirely optional:

  • be willing to regularly post in/contribute to your community(/ies)

To apply please:

  • send me your @matrixUsername:matrixHomeserver with a PM from the Lemmy acc with which you are applying
  • answer the questionnaire
  • subsequently contact me over on Matrix
  • send me your "filled out" questionnaire that way in the following format:
  1. Question1?
    your answer here
  2. Question2
    your 2nd answer here
    ...

(just copy paste the questionnaire and append your answers to the questions)

If I think you'd fit, I'll invite you into the Matrix space I've set up. I'd like to first pool some ppl there and then come up with a concept collectively, after which I'll give out the mod rights on Lemmy.
After this initial group has been established, future applications will be overseen in the "Recruits" room of the mentioned Matrix space.

Questionnaire:

  1. Which community(/ies) would you like to help moderate?
  2. Have you read the rules of said community(/ies) and do you agree to upkeep/enforce them proactively?
  3. Would you want humanity to evolve past capitalism towards a stage of a class-, money- and stateless society (ie. communism)?
  4. Do you think there should be a socialist world republic?
  5. Would you classify the Russian Federation and the Peoples' Republic of China as imperialist?
  6. What is your take on the fraternal war between Russia and Ukraine, triggered by Russian aggression?
  7. What is your take on the Zionist occupation of Palestine?

When your 2000 years old daughter is finally getting married by alsaaas in c/lotrmemes@midwest.social
[-] alsaaas@lemmy.dbzer0.com 56 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

ok so I have watched both the LOTR and Matrix trilogies before. I have just recently rewatched Matrix and only after this post have I realised that Elrond and Agent Smith are both portrayed by the same actor...

evergreen meme by alsaaas in c/leftymemes@lemmy.dbzer0.com
[-] alsaaas@lemmy.dbzer0.com 52 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

To quote Malcolm X:

The white liberal is the most dangerous thing in the entire wester hemisphere. He is the most deceitful, he's like a fox. And a fox is always more dangerous in the forest than the wolf. You can see the wolf coming, you know what he is up to. But the fox will fool you. He comes at you with his mouth shaped in such a way, that even though you see his teeth, you think he is smiling.

All their supposed progress and opposition to capital only reinforces and propels capitalism, alleviating the need for fascism just for a little longer (which arises for the ruling classes when the majority of the population grows disillusioned with their lies, be they conservative or "progressive"). In the end only legitimizing the underlying framework (capitalism), without ever threatening it.

tl;dr: scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds

For those who don't seem to get it:
No, this meme does not mean that you can't temporarily halt fascist electoral victory, but rather that fighting symptoms and portraying that as a "victory over fascism" completely disregard the root cause (as liberalism often does)...

Tho I'm ngl, the NFP seems to be pretty based, at least relative to the usual neolib bs

ie.: Fascism is a built-in function of capitalism and thus bourgeois "democracy". Capitalism turns to fascism when threatened, so as long as you aren't ready to give up the private ownership of the economy, you will not be able to get rid of fascism (paraphrasing Bertolt Brecht here)

sheesh, I often forget, that libs and revisionists actually believe in bourgeois democracy. If you are open to changing your mind I can recommend "Reform or Revolution" by Rosa Luxenburg

EDIT: @trolololol@lemmy.world made me aware of an ebook-specific link
