Citizen @wtry@lemm.ee ! For crimes committed against the People's Republic of Lemmygrad, its people, its institutions, and its Constitutionally-protected dictatorship of the proletariat!
You are at this time accused of the following charges:
We, the highest court of the People's Republic of Lemmygrad, sentence you to exile for these transgressions! Your exile is effective now, and is not conducive to a retrial or appeal! The sentence is pronounced!
Nobody can say that he wasn't given ample opportunity and more than reasonable responses prior to his just sentencing.
He got more nuanced feedback in a post in Memes than he probably will ever see again in lemm.ee
Yeah, but I think the response seemed a bit...what's it called...authoritarian?
CriticalResist MVP, you got them to say some of the funniest shit, it was great.
I really hate libs blurting dumb cia shit about China but I love being on Lemmy and seeing them get dunked on. Makes me feel good inside.
MLs are very "authoritarian"... Against the capitalist class
Communists: Wipes out a bunch of fascists
Capitalists: "THEYLL KILL YOU 😡😭"
look what you've unleashed yogthos
common yogthos W
To be fair it's always fun to dunk on bad faith libs saying communism has never worked and then ten minutes later trying to claim they're a communist lol
That whole comment thread makes me amazed this site is free lol. o7 to our glorious posters.
Anarchists will really try to rip us apart for being "authoritarian", but when you ask them how their system would deal with crimes, upholding socialism, or maintaining any semblance of order, their responses are almost always far more extreme than ours.
Genuinely had an Anarchist call me an "evil person" and a "future baby killer" for saying that I'm ML. Then when I asked them about their proposed methods for preventing counter-revolution, they described a system where anyone can murder anyone else if the victim was suspected of wanting to act against the revolution. No trial, no investigation, just the word of the murderer.
Edit to add another thought to; "their responses are almost always far more extreme than ours."
If it's not more extreme, it's lax to the point of being nothing. So the poles are either a system of total chaos, or substanceless idealism.
Also worth noting that power structures will arise whether you plan on it or not. All that happens extroverts and narcissists will naturally gravitate into positions of power when there isn't an explicit process to decide who should be in charge. This is a fantastic read on the subject https://www.jofreeman.com/joreen/tyranny.htm
No shit, everyone is authoritarian.
This post is authoritarian.
