Leftism
Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!
Rules:
- Absolutely no fascism, right wing extremism, genocide denial, etc.
- Unconditional support of authoritarians will not be tolerated
- Good faith discussion about ideologies is encouraged, but no sectarianism
- No brocialism/sexism
- No ableism
- No TERFs/ anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric
- No racism
- No trolling
- No insults, dunking, or personal attacks
- No posting of misinformation, disinformation, or fake news
- Mods have final say
Posting Expectations:
- Comics/memes/shitposts/propaganda are only allowed on weekends
- Try to avoid liberalism unless discussing electoral politics. Even then, try to focus on tactical agreement towards leftist goals
- Only one meta post seeking consensus per person per day
- Posts about a particular ideology are ok, but remember the rules above
- Remember that there is no “right way” to implement leftist theory. This rule does not prevent academic criticism.
- Try to avoid extremely sensitive topics unless approaching them with appropriate care for intersectionality. Use your best judgement, and be prepared to provide respectable sources when having these discussions. Wikipedia is not an acceptable source in these cases.
- Post titles must be meaningful and relevant, except on weekends

We have incompatible thinking styles. Of course the rich use LLMs to gain more wealth, but they will use anything. Its THEM that is the problem.
„Cost benefit analysis“ my ass. Its just a way to reduce people to numbers. Its exactly how we got here.
The greatest benefit for the greatest numbers. The least harm for the fewest number of people. These are cost/benefit analyses.
Or to put it another way, the needs of the many outweighs the needs of the few.
Which is exactly what we are not living at this point in time.
The needs of marginalized groups outweigh the needs of the many by a large margin.
The elite on the other hand needs to go.
Fucks sake. You intentionally misunderstand that.
You know shit about my intentions, mate. Currently I‘m baffled at how shallow and badly thought out your beliefs are. Of course the needs of the many dont outweigh the needs of the few. It actually boils down to hurting as few as possible, even if that means that the comfort of the many has to be abolished.
