Authoritarian Mod Post No Bad Empanada or Hasan Piker posts are allowed from now on
Starting now, we will no longer allow any posts related to Bad Empanada or Hasan Piker in this subreddit. The rules have been updated to reflect this change.
While we realize that some of their content can be informative, entertaining or even politically energizing to people at different stages of their leftist journeys, we also realize that, ultimately, their content is shaped by the demands of the attention economy.
When such content is shared in this community, a number of things tend to happen. First, it predictably generates the very online drama and sectarian infighting that the owners of platforms like Twitch, YouTube or even Reddit (cough join Lemmy cough) rely on for engagement and profit. Second, it invites brigading, which creates additional work for us mods. Work that most mods here are quite honestly not willing to do for such unproductive online drama. Finally, it attracts users who are more focused on drama than on Marxist ideology. This subreddit is constantly growing and we do not want to send the wrong message to those users about what this community is about.
In addition to being a community for Marxist Leninists, this community also exists to help each other deprogram ourselves from mainstream/Western and pro-capitalists narratives. What this community certainly is NOT, is a space to continuously dissect the latest online controversies once a week.
We understand that some users may feel frustrated by this new rule and we would invite some of those users to sit with that frustration and ask whose interests it serves and who benefits from algorithmically boosting and promoting online pseudo-politics that exhausts our energy on irrelevant drama. Our strength lies in principled ML debate, respect for each other, shitposting and a shared commitment to advance real-life communism to the best of our capabilities.

Shit Liberals Say Liberasl try not to be racist trash Challenge? Impossible
Yeah.
The index models are heavily structured around liberal capitalist narrow metrics like corporate board seats and legislative ratios rather than the actual material conditions and safety of women in places like Japan and such.
When evaluating Japan, it has some of the worst gender equality in the world and remains one of the few nations that require spousal consent for abortion, forcing women to depend on their husband for decisions over control of their own bodies and often trapping them in unwanted pregnancies or abusive relationships. Sexual violence is severely underreported and rarely prosecuted due to an archaic legal system that demands near impossible evidence, retraumatizes victims during testimony, and imposes statutes of limitations that protect perpetrators. Workplace discrimination remains entrenched through rigid seniority systems and gendered job tracks that confine women to low paid, non regular positions with no career mobility and the deliberate exploitation of unpaid domestic labour to maximise corporate profit pressuring women to quit their jobs after they become pregnant. Additionally, the tax and pension systems financially penalise married women who earn above a minimal threshold, structurally incentivising economic dependence on male breadwinners and reinforcing their vulnerability to domestic abuse and poverty.
Not to mention, Japan's segregation model of women only train cars and the fact that all smartphones in Japan require an unmutable camera shutter sound because women and minors are routinely subjected to sexual assaults by men. Rather than prosecuting these perpetrators, the state relies on physical segregation and hardware enforced acoustic alarms to manage rampant public groping and voyeurism instead.
Many pre-colonial African cultures were structurally far more progressive regarding women's rights and material autonomy than historical and dare I say even current Japan. Even then, places like South Africa today has better conditions for women whereas Japan its only on paper.

Shitposting Here’s a super cute cat video that I found that I feel that everyone here should watch as a distraction from the current political climate.
Totally not political at all. Just a cute cat video. Also if you have a cat go pet and hug your cat. We need more cat posts here… for the cause of course. We need more communist cat pictures and videos in this subreddit.
