Tanked choice was passed in Maine and elsewhere. Many blue states are tying electoral votes to the nationwide popular vote to remove that stupid distribution. Primaries are open. Only one party is trying to make voting more accessible.

Like I said, it’s kept as a carrot yet isn’t sufficient and won’t impact anything.

As for Palestine, if you don’t subscribe to the lesser of two evils then I guess there isn’t much to talk about but don’t let the Nirvana fallacy blind you too much.

The GOP and DNC are 100% aligned on Israel.

It’s great in theory, but it doesn’t actually work in real life. It never has.

It does work, and continues to. Please explain exactly what you mean here, you’re just vaguely gesturing. What was Marx wrong about? What part of Marxism doesn’t work? Can you give concrete examples of trackable metrics?

This is why people look at these Marxists trying to run in a Presidential election and just point and laugh.

You do, sure. Marxism is rising in the US, though, as the contradictions within Capitalism Marx noted result in further wealth disparity. It’s also increasingly popular worldwide, the PRC is the largest economy in the world and is run along Marxist-Leninist lines. Less than a month ago, Sri Lanka elected a Marxist-Leninist president.

It’s an angsty philosophy for young people who haven’t learned better yet.

What’s better, in your eyes? What would you recommend a Marxist read or learn from to “grow out of Marxism?” Your “great in theory, not in practice” US State Department nonsense has been repeated constantly, every single Marxist has heard that before, I’m talking about actual points.

I suggest you read Blackshirts and Reds, it’s a great book debunking common anticommunist myths.

Not to be nitpicky, but it really depends on what you’re talking about. The Petite Bourgeoisie, for example, has a tendency to try to align with either the Bourgeoisie or the Anarchists as they are proletarianized by big competition. When they align with the Bourgeoisie, this usually is a factor in the rise in fascism, also known as Capitalism in decay.

The general Proletariat vs Bourgeoisie conflict is certainly one of the most important nationally, but internationally it is the Imperialist Bourgeoisie vs the Proletariat and Nationalist Bourgeoisie, as we live in the age of Imperialism, or “moribund Capitalism.”

Hexbear.net is anti-sectarian, so it has AnComms and Marxist-Leninists alike, with no infighting allowed. It probably has the largest number by quantity.

dbzer0 has many AnComms, though it’s explicitly a Piracy instance.

Lemmy.ml has Anarchist communities as well as the Solarpunk instance, but neither have the numbers of the other 2 instances listed.

You seem to think you’ve got Marxism all figured out for someone that can’t seem to grasp the basics of it. Mind explaining what about Marxism is “all nonsense?”

To be fair, we are not the ones making those decisions, the Bourgeoisie is.

Hexbear.net and Lemmygrad.ml are explicitly Marxist aligned. Lemmy.ml’s admins are Marxists, but for some reason insist that it isn’t a Marxist instance. Lemmy.world defederated from both Grad and Hexbear, because the Lemmy.world mods and admins are anti-Marxist.

Lemmy.world is defederated from the largest Marxist aligned instances.

It’s Marxism, actually. Been there for as long as Capitalism began to be fully understood.

So you are advocating for random terrorism. Please read theory.
