Anarchism

Are you an Anarchist? The answer might surprise you!

Rules:

  1. Be respectful
  2. Don't be a nazi
  3. Argue about the point and not the person
  4. This is not the place to debate the merits of anarchism itself. While discussion is encouraged, getting in your “epic dunks on the anarkiddies” is not. As a result of the instance’s poor moderation policies and hostility toward anarchists by default, lemmygrad users are encouraged not to post here, though not explicitly disallowed if they aren’t just looking to start a fight.

apparently r/anarchism has been in lockdown for quite some time now and they link to their own reddit alternative called raddle.me, which is not fediverse integrated, sadly. they also have a long list of alternatives, but lemmy isn't one of them

That seems to be the case because lemmy's main dev is a ml. (edit: meaning 'marxist leninist, apologies for not being clear on that)

It's somewhat sad for me because the whole philosophy of the fediverse is anarchistic in its core, it is how it should be, it is how the internet should work. So I wondered - what are the biggest anarchistic communities in the fediverse so far?

edit: here some context I found on raddle: 1 2 3

What's “a ml" in this context?

Is the dev really teeny and takes up only a cubic centimetre when liquified?

Marxist-Leninist.

Kinda funny they reject Lemmy for that but didn't reject reddit for being a capitalist but okay. There are instances ran by anarchists too.

I just got your joke. wooosh

Slrpnk.net feel free to join us, but we are a strictly tankie free zone (lemmygrad and Hexbear are Blocked).

https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/ is another one.

awesome! thanks a lot. I think slrpnk hits the right notes for me :]

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I'll check out slrpnk too but I was thinking of dbzer0. I have a backup account there if something happens to this one, which is my original.

I love being on Slrpnk.net. When I was searching for an instance to join, I wanted one that wasn't too big and wasn't too small, and this has ended up being perfect

I was genuinely asking too tho, thank you for the explanation!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Oh, good. No worries! Haha

Reddit has plenty of good left/socialist spaces which aren't just ML mind rot though.
