What is it “Tankies” advocate for that is “totalitarian?” The term “tankie” is the new “woke,” it’s a strawman and a bundle of contradictions based on misinterpretations, misunderstandings, and being entirely unfamiliar with Marxism.

I suggest reading Blackshirts and Reds, Communism and Communist movements are and have historically been entirely different in aim, goals, practices, and context from fascism and fascist movements.

Crosscode is great, the puzzles are brutal though, haha.

Disco Elysium isn’t for everyone, it’s mostly a love-hate-letter by Communists for Communists.

Love the characters, too. Super endearing.

Loving Crosscode right now, will hop onto Disco Elysium after that (finally).

For fall in general, I love S.T.A.L.K.E.R though and return to it regularly.

Nice, a 2 hour old wrecker spam account. Disgusting to see.

Not that I would ever want this, necessarily, but the sheer quantity of good games that exist today is enough for several lifetimes. All video games could be free to download for the public.

They certainly can be a practical stepping stone, and probably will be in some countries, I just wanted to indicate that competing worker coops does not defeat the issues inherent to the profit motive.

Communism is a far-off ideal, and we don’t yet fully know how it would work, or how we’d get there, but people starving or dying would be a sign that it wasn’t working.

I don’t see how Communism can be built without actively building it through Socialism, so that bit’s pretty much solved, and the rest can be figured out by Socialist societies.

Cooperatives are cool, but unfortunately Markets lead to class contradictions even with cooperatives in place, which is why the goal still needs to be full Socialism.

No.

I don’t want to starve or die today.

Yep, that’s why we need Communism and not Capitalism.

You can see the screen perfectly well at 90 FPS in many, many games. Why do you need to specifically play Tarkov or something on the train?

It’s convenient and controls extremely well for anyone with a busy life, or comfortable life, dad or no.

Base building, charting planets, roleplaying, bounty hunting, going to NG+, making different decisions in questlines, and more.

The game is actually pretty good.

I’d like to know too, for picking out my next phone.

Fuck Edison.

Same thing happened to Bethesda games, each is more popular than the last and each has lost more of its magic.

In my personal experience, Hexbear is a group of rational actors with strongly held beliefs and 0 tolerance for liberalism. If you aren’t a liberal/conservative/fascist/some other right winger, and you aren’t a left-sectarian, it’s a pretty reasonable space.

The bulk of the “mythology” surrounding Hexbear comes from people defederating from it and allowing that mystique to fester in their minds. I suggest people just go there and check it out, you don’t have to agree with them, but it does eliminate the idea that they are a toxic instance.

None of that made any sense, lol. Conservativism and Communism have nothing in common whatsoever.

What do you mean? Lemmy itself was made by Communists along Communist principles, people usually defederate from Hexbear because they are rowdy.
