lemmy.ml is now requiring users to copy a sentence from Engel's "The Principles of Communism" to sign up and the libs are not happy.

I don't have any one political view I make my own and follow no one

how do you get to the age of being a grown, functional adult and still believe this

political education is down the shitter

I feel hurt we didn't think of this first

I review these. The of them respond with “No.”, which technically is a complete sentence in Engel’s text.

no, no, i'm not a maoist, i just happened to reach the same conclusion as maoism from first principles reasoning, as an independent free thinker

That's so funny and based lmao, they just give them this random looking link but when you click you get this big THE PRINCIPLES OF COMMUNISM popping off taking half of your screen like some kind of screamer for libs 🤣🤣

The comments on the .world post read like an advert for .ml. "They banned me for being a piece of shit, and tried to have slurs blocked in the source."

Despite the devs' well known communist leanings, I'm 99% sure that the requirement is there just to prove that the applicant actually read the registration directions and is not a bot.

That's cruel. Liberals burst into flame upon reading the holy writ

what could the .ml mean?

it is a mystery

I don't have any one political view I make my own and follow no one

I'm a WeedReference420ist with Being Epic and Badass Characteristics

@dessalines@hexbear.net or @dessalines@lemmy.ml

@jackmarxist@hexbear.net

If you're here, please put a question about "was General Dessalines' decision to kill off the remnants of French slaver class in Haiti a genocide or not, regardless of whether you agree or not with the action?"

Then we'll hear of them kkkrakkas complain about white genocide, when they search up that based purge... lmao

I was always under the impression that the .ml stood for Marxist-Leninist

mfers too lazy to google marxists.org for a copypasta

Dude called himself "THE MASTERMIND" the jokes write themselves

Lol Leftist Shahada

they should really change their "about" page from [shit communists like] to [shit communists like (scary)]

I really don't understand why lemmy.ml's instance description no longer has "leftist" in it as it once had. That probably would have prevented a lot of the confusion. (and probably would have somewhat preserved the "culture" of the instance even after the reddit flood)

dessalines

I should make a alt just for the sign up

Based

I was wondering if they had introduced some javascript to invigilate people actually retyping a sentence which would be funny. But it literally just says copy/paste. And if you really felt badly about this text you could find a sentence like this one:

No.

And if that's not good enough, well, I guess it's just not the instance for you.

As someone who started on lemmy.ml because I wanted a Communist/Leftist instance:

I don’t have any one political view i make my own and follow no one .

A true Boiadeiro

lol, lmao

somewhat common lemmy.ml w

lol

lmao

if you follow no one why are you surprised no one cares

lol based

Bye bitch

Permanently Deleted
