Yesterday, I created my account on Lemmy.ml because I want to become mod on !stardewvalley@lemmy.ml. And I posted this comic on !stardewvalley@lemmy.ml It’s SDV game cutscene where Shane a NPC go watch Sports game with you kiss you accidentily but It was part of that event also player kiss Shane(NPC) back. Here’s video for more context. And someone claimed it have SA(Sexual Assualt) From Hexbear Ofcourse. So, I should delete it. I said it was a part of game cutscene. And If main player doesn’t love the Shane(NPC) then they don’t need to complete this event. And Just as a sarcasm I added Yeah we shoule delete this entire community because this game is Woke like Woke Detector Steam Group said. That user think I am some anti-woke dickhead something like that IDK. And tell me to Kill My Self. What I do now? I wanted on become mod on .ml because community was already well established. I message dessaline but I am sure he will not unbanned me. :(
Did I really did something wrong? I don’t know If I really did something wrong.
Link for that comic if embed doesn’t work.
First of all, that’s ahistorical. Bolsheviks infamously denied a revolution was happening and tried to wait for better material conditions, while a revolution was happening. This kind of things happens all the time.
Anyway, you just rephrased yourself. How would a movement “pick up steam” with two factions pulling in different directions? Or do you claim that MLs would join a purely anarchist movement? If so, that’s not an example of left unity. It’s an argument for entryism or something. And we already know what happened when anarchists joined ML movements picking up steam…
No I’m talking about the site culture. I think that’s the primary reason people put aside their core differences to hang out, either that, or LARPing as the other faction to give credence to “left unity” 🤷
If any non-toxic anarchists venture out of Hexbear, sure I can ask them. !anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com is right there but I never see any hexbear anarchists commenting (except for the times they brigaded)
It is historical. Many Anarchists joined the Bolsheviks to support the mass movement, and the Bolsheviks also supported the Anarchists in Spain for a time. Disagreements are allowed to happen as well, my point is that the division isn’t black and white.
You call it “entryism,” I call it left-unity. Even then, coalitions have their place as well. Secondly, many Anarchists joined the ML movements, the ones who did not were the ones too opposed to work with them. That doesn’t mean the Marxists were innocent, of course, just that it isn’t black and white. Many Anarchists joined the ranks of the Bolsheviks.
The former is more of a point than the latter, there are clearly Anarchists on Hexbear and Anarchist theory is often talked about and encouraged.
Hexbear’s Anarchists aren’t likely to participate in an Anarchist community that fundamentally disagrees on analysis of AES.
My point is that the division is very much black and white. The anarchists which joined the Bolsheviks got disillusioned, purged or killed. The anarchists of Spain learned similar lessons. Disagreements are allowed to happen in anarchist revolutions, sure, sometimes too much for their own good. But we’ve seen that in ML ones, persistent anarchist disagreement is an eventual path towards the front of a firing squad for being “counter-revolutionary”.
No, when you join an succesful Anarchist movement and don’t act like an anarchist, it’s entryism. When you act as an anarchist, it’s just anarchism.
Again, it’s all about the praxis. How one larps on a web forum is irrelevant.
Sure, if all you’re doing is playing reformism…
So long as it anarchist theory which suppresses the largest anarchist lessons learned painfully in the 20th century, which is that left unity doesn’t exist 🤷
Starting to sound like a cult here, buddy…
At what point does dissent become counter-revolutionary? Never? Or is there a point where it makes sense to enforce unity?
So if I ideologically think the movement is flawed but materially support it I am considered by you an Anarchist? I disagree, to an extent. If a movement gains traction, it is more important to effectively support that movement, however it manifests, to the best of your abilities.
If a Marxist believes in Democratic Centralism and therefore joins the Anarchists in a united movement, rather than fracturing it, despite their disagreements, they are a Marxist.
That’s your opinion, of course, and Hexbear’s Anarchists clearly disagree. I suggest talking to them about it.
I don’t see that at all. If dbzer0 as an instance is generally hostile to support of AES, it isn’t always useful nor fun to engage if you do support AES. I don’t think it’s “cult-like,” neither instance is truly neutral ground.
No. It never makes sense to “enforce unity”. Dissent doesn’t become counter-revolutionary unless there’s counter-revolutionary praxis involved. Since you’re all about “left unity”, you should be perfectly happy to let anarchists practice anarchist prefiguration inside a ML society, no?
No, but it means you’re doing anarchism. I.e. it’s not “left unity”. It’s just anarchism.
Again, a movement doesn’t gain traction on its own. Its unity of praxis that makes it so, which is explicitly what your “left unity” is not doing, since it waits and see if someone else has traction to join it. It’s nonsense!
Sure, tell them to come over to /c/anarchism!
dbzer0 is not hexbear. We don’t ban people who are misguided about “AES”, like hexbear would. Not do we dogpile them for wrongthink. As such, there’s not problem in coming over to talk to us.
However I would be raising quite an eyebrow to any anarchist who avoids talking to other anarchists who don’t accept state capitalism is a form of socialism.
For clarity, does this extend to Capitalists? Fascists?
I’m gonna disagree on the semantics there.
On the contrary, it supports leftists to do what they believe is most effective and learn from other tendencies.
Why don’t you make a thread inviting them? I’m not wanting to get accused of “brigading” like Hexbear always is.
I’ve run into issues with dbzer0 as an instance regarding this, your rules surrounding MLs are deliberately written in a manner that limits discussion. If you change the rules to be more free-speech then I’ll consider it, I used to do so until it became clear that I had to watch what I said, while takes like “Lenin wasn’t a Marxist” stay up and even get postively upvoted.
Hah I knew it. No, dissent is not the same as platforming.
Really? So doing anarchist praxis is not anarchism?
Supports how? With thoughts and prayers? That’s not unity. That’s just vibes.
Because I think it’s fruitless if they don’t even bother to take part in completely neutral topics which have nothing to do with “AES”.
The only explicit rule we have regarding MLs is “no tankie communities”. And of course I’m not going to remove comments just to fit your sensibilities about Lenin.
But in any case I was not talking about you specifically, I was countering your point about Hexbear anarchists being too precious to venture outside a space where ML-style “AES” is not the accepted paradigm, which for real is an utterly an absurd thing for an anarchist to be hung upon.
So then where is the line between reasonable dissent and platforming?
It’s semantics. If a Marxist uses Marxist analysis to side with Anarchists, they are still acting as a Marxist.
As I already stated, many members of Hexbear are also members of PSL, FRSO, Food Not Bombs, or local leftist parties and groups.
So then why ask me to send them your way?
Never said you should remove the anti-Lenin comments, but that your moderators have bias. The “no tankie” bit is a good example, “tankie” is ill-defined and as such can be used to target whatever the moderator wishes.
It isn’t about HB Anarchists being “precious,” Hexbear is already active enough and has its own Anarchist communities. Jumping to dbzer0s isn’t exactly the first choice for most people.
Very big subject and I doubt I have time to expand here. But to put it short: Aligned goals. You claim anarchists are part of the left, then their alternative positions are just dissent from your viewpoint, so according to your left unity, you need to afford them dissent. If you actually claim, that no, they don’t share goals so we need to silence their free speech and suppress their actions, then don’t prattle about “left unity” either.
Again, praxis. What praxis are they doing! Anarchist or ML? Your Marxist analysis is irrelevant.
So? How is some Hexbear not taking part in FNB showing “left unity” to those who do?
Again, all you’re showing here is that hexbear left unity is just vibes. “We all hang out in the same place and we all do different things, so we’re united (somehow)”
You suggested I should talk to them. If you have someone who’s willing to do the effort, they are free to step outside of the hexbear compound and talk.
And again, kinda cultish, but you do you.
