I don’t get why fascists are so obsessed with this “hur hur no poet in commune go mine coal” meme when literally every AES states in existence supports arts and cultures, like even DPRK under its extreme embargo are still willing to fund public performers.

And of course, under capitalism there’s no room for (non mass-marketable) arts either: The corporation have no room for poets, go stock shelves.

Why are they confusing Communism with Capitalism? Under Capitalism, you’re pretty much forced by the market to do what that damned thing wishes… as everything is commodified. For example, want to study History (like me)? Tough luck, prepare for a life of shitty salaries as the market has no need for historians. Want cash? Study some mindless shit like “Marketing”…

Under Capitalism, your dreams are actually crushed by the system, it’s not a fantasy, it’s reality.

The same reason they think reddit is a communist website. The type of person who creates and consumes this meme is the type of person who thinks liberal, communist, anarchist, democrat, antifa, etc. etc. are all interchangeable.

Actually, the person who made this meme might know the difference but they’ll play ignorant in the name of fascist propaganda.

They can’t imagine a different world. They never stepped outside the box to look.

Create post

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
