Also, it defaults to "Active" view, which is the least updated. You can set your posts to "Hot" and then switch between "Top 6 Hours" and "Top 12 Hours" to get the most of your experience here. It will seem dead with the default.

I usually sort by new comments. Sometimes you'll see 1 year old post still active in the comments. It's neat

Are there any real communism/anarchism communities?

For awhile I thought that there were stacks of people on lemmy.world constantly complaining about tankies. But now I'm starting to realise that most of the posts are from this one dude, cm0002. Frankly, it's a little bit weird.
These posts are so fucking cringe lol. Its always the same guy posting them.
Former tankie turned anarchist. Talk to the Tankies. Learn from them, they have points.
Engles is full of shit ("On Authority" is little more than a business owner complaining that people don't like authority, and using natural laws of the universe to justify its existence by diluting the definition of authority such that any type of power over anything is considered authority. While this is not technically incorrect, it is a gross oversimplification of what authority means) and is the primary basis for how authority is justified on the Auth left.
But when they tell you to read something, go read it. They shitpost hard, don't eat the onion, don't feed the trolls, but engage in genuine conversation *recognizing that you will never agree and using it as a learning experience *

I like to think of tankies as Anakin Skywalker in that scene on the Grass with Padme. Anakin is gently explaining his hopes for the future, the wonderful world he wants to build, but when asked if people disagree he says "then they'll be made to", revealing his authoritarian streak. To anakin, like the tankie, seems obvious that an ultimate authority is necessary to shepherd the people into their eventual utopia, by force if necessary.
Many recognize the goal of a far left state is to whither and die, but the tankie forgets that power begets power. A dictatorship of the prolietariat is all well and good until a well spoken wolf in the finest wool takes the reigns. Power does not corrupt; rather i believe it is corruption that seeks power, and like dragons those corrupted by power will not give it up, and will do anything for more.
Imagine dedicating this much of your free time attacking people for caring too much.
