Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

Self explanatory, but it's do describe westerners and global northern liberals discrediting the efforts of global south nations developing economically or progressively and sometimes going beyond some western countries. this is obviously about China and all the articles ending with "but at what cost?" after saying something good about it. another one is whenever Cuba gets mentioned in how good it is at LGBTQ+ rights they discredit it by saying some nonsense about dictatorship.

It fully encapsulates the sheer disdain the western liberal has for any venture of any type that is not designed solely to extract as much profit as possible at the lowest expense

People here will unironically be like, sure it sounds nice that China has such a convenient public transit and intercity rail system and it would improve my life, but it doesn't make profit for a handful of elite people who would probably spit on me in disgust if given the chance so its stupid and bad

How about "Quiet Killing." Its just social murder but in a phrase PMC libs might understand

Good term. Is there a dictionary/internall wiki page of terms emerging from lemmygrad yet?
