Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

Could we give life to our c/worldnews? (lemmygrad.ml)

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?

Did you mean that we should only have news from socialist countries?

I agree we should have such news but I think some Western sources will be okay. If it's between all us, we can go into it to argue about which parts might be true and which parts outright lies.
