    So far every website owner I’ve had issues with has been a billionaire capitalist, I’ll give the communists a shot.

    This meme, again?!
    I do not understand the argument. Are you implying that being communist automatically pins you in the pro CCP?
    My country is socialist. My family is socialist. All my friends are socialists. I love socialism.
    By following the same logic, does that mean that I am considered a Nazis lover?

    Also water is wet. The devs’ political views are not important to me, the software they make is more important. “Separate the art from the artist.”

      True they start telling you how China is doing wonders for its people.

      I disagree politicly with many people on reddit. I don’t care if you disagree but it does bother me when they are following a dead idolology.

      I also don’t like lemmy.ml being as big as it is. We need to seperate the power of development from the power of administration

    I’ve lived in a communist country before. It’s not really an issue for me.

      Do you believe in “removing” people who are “unfit for society” or the execution of enemy’s of the state (ei journalists)

          You need a authoritarian oppression and mass propaganda to keep communism in line. Farms will fall to product enough food and you need to hide the reason for the failure from the people

        Communism is not eugenics. I also would love to see who specifically you are saying was executed. Just calling someone a journalist doesn’t automatically mean they are good people who do good things. Be specific if you’re going to make an argument.

          True but they execute anyone who dares to say anything other than the official media

      That’s a problem because communism is dangerous and destructive due to its dark patterns. Its the same thing as Nazism.

    Good. We need more communists representing their ideas in open forums. I’d be more concerned if they were capitalists. That’s just Reddit 2.0.

    Sometimes the best tech people are weird as hell. This might be one of those cases.

    Although I did hear that they censor content critical of china, which sucks.

      censor content critical of China

      This is exactly my point. China is authoritarian and has commited war crimes against people who it doesnt’t like. It also arrests journalists as enemies of the state.

      I’m not saying the west is completely perfect but China is much worse

    I mean… Open source and federation are the perfect representation of the ideas of communism…
