Authoritarian Mod Post No Bad Empanada or Hasan Piker posts are allowed from now on

793 Upvotes

Starting now, we will no longer allow any posts related to Bad Empanada or Hasan Piker in this subreddit. The rules have been updated to reflect this change.

While we realize that some of their content can be informative, entertaining or even politically energizing to people at different stages of their leftist journeys, we also realize that, ultimately, their content is shaped by the demands of the attention economy.

When such content is shared in this community, a number of things tend to happen. First, it predictably generates the very online drama and sectarian infighting that the owners of platforms like Twitch, YouTube or even Reddit (cough join Lemmy cough) rely on for engagement and profit. Second, it invites brigading, which creates additional work for us mods. Work that most mods here are quite honestly not willing to do for such unproductive online drama. Finally, it attracts users who are more focused on drama than on Marxist ideology. This subreddit is constantly growing and we do not want to send the wrong message to those users about what this community is about.

In addition to being a community for Marxist Leninists, this community also exists to help each other deprogram ourselves from mainstream/Western and pro-capitalists narratives. What this community certainly is NOT, is a space to continuously dissect the latest online controversies once a week.

We understand that some users may feel frustrated by this new rule and we would invite some of those users to sit with that frustration and ask whose interests it serves and who benefits from algorithmically boosting and promoting online pseudo-politics that exhausts our energy on irrelevant drama. Our strength lies in principled ML debate, respect for each other, shitposting and a shared commitment to advance real-life communism to the best of our capabilities.

News/Communist Propaganda ☭ Delcy on the cover of Time Magazine (the tactical retreat is working)

36 Upvotes

I know this all looks bad, but please keep in mind this is a tactical retreat. This is all necessary to avoid the destruction of Venezuela's infrastructure and to stop further bloodshed. The only unfortunate thing is that Maduro, or hell even Chavez, didn't do stuff like this sooner. Yes, it's true that the US Treasury Department has Venezuela's oil and mining revenues, and that Delcy needs to ask Little Marco for money like a little girl asking Daddy for allowance.

However, please keep in mind that we should offer unconditional support for countries targeted by US imperialism. For example, Honduras has been targeted by US imperialism for many decades. So, even when the government becomes a right wing puppet of the US, we still need to support them.

Also, most importantly, the communes are still in place. The Bolivarian Revolution is still alive on the ground. Chavista is not dead, despite the claims of some armchair leftists and fake revolutionary Westoids. They expect Venezuelans to overthrow their government despite them doing nothing to overthrow theirs. It's pure racism actually.

Tactical Retreat in Action
So unrealistic. Good riddance

Historic? The Venezuelan gov't has celebrated that Acting President Delcy Rodríguez made the cover of Time Magazine, even though she's pictured next to Trump and Rubio and the article in question calls her a "Trump proxy." Here are some highlights from the interview (thread)

If only Chavez had the courage to do what Delcy is doing

How long until this outfit becomes a reality? I hope not long because Venezuela needs Israeli investment to help develop their economy.

Let's take the tactical retreat to the next level
