Wut?
@Archangel1313 The welfare state was the capitalist's answer to working class organization and its victory in the Soviet Union. It was a concession and therefore a means of control. It's also an alarming sign that capitalism seems to believe it no longer needs it.
@Comrade Ferret The fact that I can say this in a supposedly communist forum and have as many people upvoting it as downvoting it really speaks volumes about how absolutely fucking cooked Lemmy is.
Lemmy.ml has tons of liberals from other instances, which is a blessing and a curse.
