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

I love Cody and Katy, but this inane pandering to libcon "bothside-ism" hysterics need to stop.
No, there is absolutely zero reason to "condemn" Hamas for taking offensive action against a white supremacist settler-colonialist state that poses a clear and present threat to every Palestinian existing on colonized and occupied land and have actively done so since 1948.
None. Nada. Zilch.
Hamas was thoroughly justified in taking offensive action against this white supremacist state - it's not their fault that their planning didn't take into consideration white supremacists feeling so perfectly safe and immune in their little white supremacist state that they literally organized a music festival within easy walking distance of the walls of the world's largest open-air prison that only exists thanks to said white supremacist state.
Fuck this pandering to white supremacist hysteria. People talking about this needs to start growing a damn backbone.
