Arelin@lemmy.zipto Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL over 500'000 German prisoners of war died in forced labour camps, after the German surrender, while detained in the Soviet Union. With the latest survivors only being released a decade later.English206·10 months agoWild that they let some nazis survive. Hope they at least put them to good use for labor as reparations.
In the capitalist countries they were given cushy leadership positions instead lmao as you’d expect
Arelin@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is it me or is everyone in hexbear insane?244·10 months agoHere’s the thread in question btw. The mods left up OP’s comments that had some semblance of effort.
OP claimed putler was trying to bring back the USSR or some shit here lmao. At least OP deleted it.
Arelin@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is it me or is everyone in hexbear insane?178·10 months agoI don’t think most people on this thread like you very much either lol
Arelin@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is it me or is everyone in hexbear insane?278·10 months agoI have not seen anyone there advocating for capitalism though?
Arelin@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is it me or is everyone in hexbear insane?4517·10 months agoDamn it’s nice to see the comments are surprisingly evenly split between hating on it and actually being reasonable. Quite a difference from when redditors first moved in here last year.
I guess the more people talk about it, the more people actually visit it for themselves and form their own opinions.
No wonder then that 90% of the Soviet population voted to stay in the Union, but of course that didn’t stop its overthrow because capitalists had already taken it over by then.
A poll in 2009
As time passes though, the capitalist propaganda that kids in these places grow up with will probably start to outweigh the lived experiences of worsened living conditions after capitalists overthrew the USSR that their parents had. It’s sad.
Arelin@lemmy.zipto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How would you react if Reddit joined the fediverse?404·11 months agoLemmy.world already exists unfortunately

Arelin@lemmy.zipto Videos@lemmy.ml•How Wall Street Took Over Higher Education – Second Thought41·11 months agoLol maybe “socialists” who watch vaush or some other pedo
Arelin@lemmy.zipto Videos@lemmy.ml•How Wall Street Took Over Higher Education – Second Thought4·11 months agoLmao
Though I guess this is who some of these videos are for. Well meaning (I hope) liberals who are still on the fence about socialism for some reason.
Arelin@lemmy.zipto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why are socialist and communist countries usually considered more authoritarian than capitalist countries?1·1 year agoJust as capitalist states are “authoritarian” against working class interests, socialist states are “authoritarian” against capitalist interests.
The state is a tool for one class to oppress another. The goal of (most) communists is to transition from capitalism — where the capitalist class is in power — to a stateless, classless communist society via socialism — where the working class is in power.
Public perception of which is more “authoritarian” therefore depends on which class is currently in power and is able to manufacture consent, and that is the capitalist class in the vast majority of the world right now since the USSR’s overthrow.

Currently funding and supporting a genocide through the colony in Palestine to keep it subjugated.
I’m guessing you’ll be saying fascist shit like this in the future too when these victims eventually have to immigrate to the regions not destroyed by imperialism — that is, Europe — cuz of this?
two wrongs
What “wrong”? Migrating to stay alive?
Arelin@lemmy.zipto Europe@feddit.de•Croatian police ‘shoot at’ pregnant migrant women trying to cross into EUEnglish71·1 year agoCongratulations on learning that present systems exist in the context and foundations of what came before.
And the EU has indeed invaded Libya in the recent past though NATO.
Arelin@lemmy.zipto Europe@feddit.de•Croatian police ‘shoot at’ pregnant migrant women trying to cross into EUEnglish8·1 year agoLaws made by those colonizers and invaders?
Arelin@lemmy.zipto Europe@feddit.de•Croatian police ‘shoot at’ pregnant migrant women trying to cross into EUEnglish134·1 year agoWonder why they’re migrating
Perhaps it has something to do with the past few centuries of brutal colonization by western Europe and Japan, the ongoing neocolonialism of the Global South, the coups, sanctions, and invasions by imperial core countries whenever a “former” colony tries to escape this imperialism?
Nah, I’m sure they’re doing it for no reason.
the US facilitated a genocide in my country
Lmao the irony.
Go outside and touch some grass. Sounds like you just want to get mad for no reason.
Well tbf, even though it’s strictly banned in China there are still some cases of it happening in rural areas.
