Just imagine if Xi Jiping came out tomorrow and said in English “my advisors told of this website called Hexbear, they said that it was the bulwark of socialism in the west, I fired this advisor and they were sent to a reeducation camp. I have spent party resources researching this Hexbear and came to the conclusion that it is reactionary website filled with radical liberals that has bad takes on literally everything. We will be extending the great firewall to block not just Hexbear, but all Lemmy extensions, we cannot taint our brand of Marxism with this adventurist bourgeoisie filth! This E-communism is heretical and everyone who practiced it must be branded with a hot iron on the face so no one can ever take them seriously again, their fingers must be cut off so they can no longer type, their eyes must be glued shut so they cannot read theory to misinterpret it. Not just the Hexbearers, but the Breadtubers, and the Dirtbag Leftists, and the Star Trekkers too! DRIVE OUT THE REVISIONISTS WHO POST BAD TAKES ONLINE!” -Liu Cixin
And they wouldn’t be wrong.
This site is more vibes than materialist theory, but it’s fine, people just want to shitpost and relax after a hard day of work.
We just have to accept the legitimate criticisms as they are.
No, we should criticize everyone else and accept no criticism of ourselves because we are perfect, the struggle sessions are for people we dont like. We should embrace hypocrisy as our goal as leftists should be to enrich each other as comrades. Venmo me 50$, I also accept Apple Pay.
Not using weixin or alipay, 'comrade'?
Down with bourgeois counterrevolutionary Venmo and Apple Pay! Uphold the socialist payment systems of Alipay and UnionPay!
Here's your T-34 for housing and your Ushanka, remember not to smile until the Soviet Union reforms.
Would be extremely funny if this was the response to this type of theoretical criticism
"Hey man I'm shitposting here, nothing here matters enough to take issue with anything I say"
