Fairly niche? Most of the lemmygrad people are outright idolizing every totalitarian 'marxist' regime of the past century.

I totally get left ideology and do agree with Marx' ideology, but I've never understood how simping for autocrats fits into that.

When I read that Lemmy had an active communist group I was looking forward to that, but the vehemence of the debate and the apologetic whitewashing of history really turned me off.

So yeah, please a debate that isn't so black and white is very welcome imho.
