Is lemmy like the unofficial gathering place for commies? I see more commie garbage on here than reddit, which is saying something.

Where is the "commie garbage"?

People here are making valid complaints about the state of society.

Most people know that communism isn't the answer.

Mostly everyone who says taking someone else's property is okay if you feel they deserve it, or the seller deserves it. If you don't see a huge commie bent here, then I would assume it's because you are a commie or are commie-adjacent. For real, maybe I've just stumbled on the perfect mix, but I'm finding lemmy to be rife so far.

I don't think that's ok. Humans need their space, man.

I see a moderate and a left bent here. Both of those I vibe with, but the left isn't synonymous with communism or even marxism.

And there's also idealism, of course - there's plenty of that everywhere on the Internet.

My view of the left is that they want an infra that's more aligned with the EU or Scandanavia.

That's definitely not communism. NK is communist, and there are very few people who want NK.
