We are officially a left-unity community. Anarchists and Marxist-Leninists etc. all welcome, but we don't tolerate right-wing/liberal ideology that contributes to the suffering of the exploited workers of the world.
It's more so a place for leftists to hang out and chat and spread news/content. A bit of both ig.
The people calling us tankies and nazis simultaneously are mostly doing so out of a disingenuous liberal attempt to position anybody to the left of them as being on the right of them, while they are the truly enlightened ones. The shitposting is only ever a response to people who are being disingenuous with their arguments and refusing to have genuine discourse.
I guess I'm gonna hang out a lot with you guys, sounds like you're "the actual cool kids" while I'm just a .ml normie :'(
Also, the lemmyverse is a much happier place (for me at least) with you guys around!
I'll bring some cat pics over~
just make sure there's no PII in said photos
Everything is gonna be SFW, my darlings are precious~

Ah, I get it now, new acronym for me. Thanks a bunch, and I'll be sure to be careful with the pics, ~~place black bars over their eyes~~ and erase metadata wherever needed.
Yeah, opsec is a thing here. It's technically illegal to be a communist in the usa, along with a number of other places. Communists aren't allowed to enter the us, either. And a lot of people here are part of oppressed minorities. In general it's a good idea to do what you can to keep your actual identity obfuscated. Some people create new accounts on a regular basis to make it harder to sift through their posts for personal identifying information.
I understand completely, and protecting yourself also protects your comrades. I already use some privacy oriented tools, but I still have loads of room to improve. Getting my old laptop to work again and use as a VPN or something similar is one of my goals for this year.
And thanks again for the safety tips ๐
