An international (English speaking) socialist Lemmy community free of the “ML” influence of instances like lemmy.ml and lemmygrad. This is a place for undogmatic shitposting and memes from a progressive, anti-capitalist and truly anti-imperialist perspective, regardless of specific ideology.
Rules:
Be a decent person.
No racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, zionism/nazism, and so on.
Other Great Communities:

I’ve seen regular condo and high rise complexes have stuff like movie theaters and tennis courts, wood shops and stitching rooms, puzzle and reading rooms. Some are even having restaurants as well.
