We do have one but it doesn't have as much attention even from people on this instance, I included. I understand the idea of using Lemmy.ml community is to spread the world and show reactionaries that there's a world beyond their tiny window which is not only encompassed by the West. But at the same time is tiring, I like reading the news, that's how I like to start my morning, but I don't want to get every day into the same fights because I'm just voicing my opinion, and having to argue against the same arguments over and over again: "China/X country which is bad source so the source is lying", "capitalist apologia", "whataboutism", etc. I'm just not liking it, I love the fact that Lemmy is growing, but it has become a reactionary cesspool. I just would like it very much more if I could just go read the news and either get a true insight or joke with my comrades, and if I feel like it, I go to Lemmy.ml to argue with reactionaries.
Does anyone feel like me? Maybe we could get a bot that cross posts from there to here so that we can get the news without the trash and have it be more active?
Oh that's a problem every online space has to manage with, but purging those who are most terminally online here will probably turn our spaces into ghost towns. So it's best to seed materialism into those terminally online. So basically for combating the army of terminally online libs, you need an equal amount of terminally online comies. An idiotic and baffling proposition, but I think this might really be the only way to counter the bullshit we find on other instances.
Oh yeah I didn't insinuate that but I can see how my comment leads to that thought. Sorry! I just wanted to comment on how no matter what we do, we kind of lose.
You aren't terminally online? Sorry 99% of lurkers and doom scrollers will get hit with the status quo ideology. You are terminally online? How do you even hope to begin organizing and spreading class conciousness where it matters most?
We would need poster farms lmao. Becoming the real wumaos we always wanted to be xD
i was thinking about this recently, alongside the whole reading of reproduction of revolutionary esprit de corp, (reading https://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/althusser/1970/ideology.htm) but so far i was just thinking some kind of ai bot to make memes like how the gpt4 bot did with the 4chan meme account (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efPrtcLdcdM)
