Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!
We should have a counter on our profiles that says how many times we've been called a Chinese or Russian bot.
Most recently while posting on my lemmy account I was called this, by a Trump fan, because I mentioned Biden deporting more people than Trump, therefore I was a Russian trying to get Biden elected?? That was a new twist on it 
Every time I say something. At this point I believe it’s just my fellow coworkers at Unit 205 in the Lubyanka messing with me
A few times, there's no real coherence or thought behind it, it's just a way to disengage from any points being made by attempting to discredit the source of those points, which ultimately doesn't make a difference on the quality of the points.
There are a few dedicated people on the broader Lemmy communities that are so thoroughly devoid of any and all theory yet somehow love Marx and hate Marxists. Lenin was right, Marx has been de-edged in the public space, sanitized and vulgarized.
Now I just try to get libs to read any theory, hoping that if they read tame shit like Wage Labor and Capital and Value, Price and Profit they will move on to spicier works like Critique of the Gotha Programme, or even State and Revolution.
Everytime I say something not sanctioned by the US propaganda machine
