Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)
Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.
Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc
(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

I don't pretend to know much about how China functions, but I know enough to know its certainly more capitalistic than Mao would have liked. But this is why I'm not a fan of communism—the most developed countries that embraced it all became horrible dictatorships that betray the most central tenets of communism. In other words, it doesn't seem to work all that well, at least not on a grand scale. For it to work as intended, I think it requires a fairly small community—like a commune. I'm not a fan of capitalism either though; my preference is something in the middle, more like Democratic socialism.
But the point is, some Far Lefties do seem to like China for whatever reason. Again, I think they mainly just like that they're opposing capitalism and view the CCP through some very rose-colored classes.
