This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

This community is for posts about Marxism and geopolitics (including shitposts to some extent). Serious posts can be posted here or in /c/GenZhou. Reactionary or ultra-leftist cringe posts belong in /c/shitreactionariessay or /c/shitultrassay respectively.

We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information. If you believe the server may be down, check the status on status.elara.ws.

I once was active on a Habbo forum during my teens. I got along greatly with everyone. Suddenly, a troll comes up. He was being annoying and eventually he decided to act like I was behind all this. He got what he wanted when we coincedentally logged on at the same time. Everyone was convinced it was me and I got banned from the community. This cake thing randomly reminded me of that lol.

Yippie we have site taglines now

[–] ComradePupIvy@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I feel I am in the minority herw but I prefer the no taglines

[–] Oppo@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

They are kinda sucky in mobile because they take a lot of space.
But imagine once you become a true revolutionary and they put your quote on the tagline, that's how you know you made it!

Is it just a minor aesthetic nitpick or genuinely annoying? I haven't tested anything other than the full-size web UI (my only issue with it so far is that the quote can change when opening a new tab), but it might be obnoxious on other platforms

Who in your opinion is most likely to succeed Xi Jinping whenever he retires as head of government? No I'm not asking who the "CCP" will "imperially appoint," but who is likely next. I'm looking to learn more about Chinese political figures! Also, who would you choose?

Oh my motherfucking god, ~~I can’t properly edit one of my threads and~~ now I have somebody whining ‘I DON’T LIKE THIS SOURCE!!!’ at me.

I mean, we post content from garbage‐ass sources like CNN, the Guardian and the New York Times daily without any complaint, but somebody uses a ‘Trotskyite’ source and suddenly you have to cry that you didn’t get your meal on a silver platter? What is wrong with you people?

ETA: I figured out (I love how I don’t get a warning message) that the prompt kept rejecting my edits because I was inserting an otherwise ableist word that somebody was using inoffensively into my excerpt, so that’s one thing fixed.

[–] DankZedong@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 1 year ago

I guess we need to assess each source and story on a case by case basis. Like you said we post all kinds of ideologically different sources. Barring right wing extremist of course.

Note to the admins: The spammer @ThuleanPerspective2@eviltoast.org is using images hosted on lemmygrad:

I believe the dev team is working on a tool that'll delete all unused images hosted on an instance, so we'll be able to get rid of images like these (although you may have to remove the links unless the tool explicitly only counts embedded images) as well as the legally important ones (like CSAM)

I just got a call that I got a new appartment and I immediately started feeling anxious about cancelling my current one and doing all of the stuff I need to do in the next few weeks.

The things we are required to do in order to have a roof over your head off which a leech can make a profit are exhausting.
