I fled Reddit due to the authoritarian mod craziness, but Lemmy.world seems infested with too much Communist craziness. I’m leftist, but communism is idiocy. Is there an instance that leans more democratic socialist but refrains from going off the deep end?
Revolution can come in many forms taxing the rich, siding with the workers in court, ending the exploitative businesses practices, starting up more crown corporations, making all elections completely publicly funded, legislating a path for businesses to be owned by the workers while using the independent courts to facilitate this, directing the transfer of wealth to the everyday people, increasing the funding for CBC.
I love everything you say (I don’t know what CBC is though) but the communist revolution is not that, it’s a bloodbath where workers take the power. Does it have to be a bloodbath? It seems so in a communist uprising because the power in place will not budge otherwise.
So I’m much more on your line, but without calling it the name communism.
