Aren’t the lemmy.ml admins MLs too though? Or was that proven false? Either way, I don’t tend to see commie stuff on that instance bc it’s bigger and doesn’t cater to us tankies like this one does.

Almost nothing I listen to is communist lmao. The closest I come is punk, which is usually anarchist.

My top 5 artists (in no particular order) are Green Day, Silverstein, the Beatles, Taylor Swift and All Time Low.

Why is this post getting brigaded, and by whom?

It doesn’t matter what I think of the Chinese system, I will defend China till my dying breath bc people still conflate it with communism, so, as a communist, defending China is a net positive.

I’ve always been a leftist. In fact, I think I was always a communist, I just didn’t know it until a few years ago. I grew up hating most Republicans, and eventually I started hating Democrats too (I’m in the US so that’s about all we have to choose from), especially after what happened to Bernie Sanders in 2016. After Bernie’s run, and hearing many people talk about how he wasn’t a real socialist, I decided to look into what socialism actually was, because I agreed with Bernie on almost everything. I found I agreed with that even more than I agreed with Bernie. For a long time, I was scared to call myself a communist with all of the bullshit propaganda we are taught in the US, but eventually I got curious about that too and looked into how everything I knew about it was complete bullshit, and I never looked back.

As for how I found GenZedong, I forget if I found it on Reddit’s main page (before they took it off of there, for obvious reasons) or if someone in a communist org I used to be part of mentioned it to me. I found Lemmygrad from people expecting it to get banned from Reddit one day and offering it as an alternative.

But muh productivity

Fuck George Orwell tho
