I'm trans and I really don't want to federated with these people if their mods are defending the -tard suffix and they aren't getting de-modded and banned. I also don't want to be federated with them if they ban critiquing western chauvinism.
Someone who is an admin and with more of a level head than me RN please talk to their admins about it.
Nelson Mandela was a communist. Was the final recipient of the Lenin Peace Prize from the Soviet Union. And (re)wrote a book titled "How to be a Good Communist" while in prison where the first lines of the book reads:
His remarks on receiving the Lenin Peace Prize after finally getting out of prison are here: http://www.mandela.gov.za/mandela_speeches/2002/021028_lenin.htm
I think this part is relevant:
Of course, liberals leave all of this out when praising Mandela.
The list of people whose socialist, anarchist, and communist politics have been written out of history is enormous. One that strikes me has always been Helen Keller. She was a noted and popular speaker in the early 20th century, but when she began speaking authoritatively about leftist struggle she was blacklisted from media and the story that gets told in schools - a story mostly about the teacher she worked with to develop speech and communication methods suitable for her disabilities - began to be shaped.
Recommended reading:
Why I became an IWW by Helen Keller. (Socialism For All narration with commentary here)
This is a short read and note that this was in the period when the IWW was dominated by Marxists/communists and prior to the shift where the IWW became dominated by anarchists.
Another favorite of mine is Chef Boyardee receiving the Order of Lenin award.

Everyone I see, I tell them Nako, he is doing the just work if there is just work, he is doing it. He is a fine fella if I ever seen one.
Liberals don't even know that Mandela was released from prison and lived until 2013. They all think he died while incarcerated decades ago, hence the "Mandela effect." It's a real self-own that they decided to put a label on their shitty understanding of history.
