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

It was really annoying back when I was a rightist but it's even more frustrating now that I am a Marxist-Leninist that so-called "leftists" denounce pretty much every single successful socialist experience in history.

The Soviet Union, China, Korea, GDR, Yugoslavia, basically every single Marxist-Leninist nation. I'm not really referring to Maoists and Hoxhaists (though they can be annoying as well but are more tolerable to me), I'm referring to the majority of the "not real socialism" gang which most rightists like to mock, which are democratic socialists, pseudo-Marxists, and anarchists.
