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.

Most people don’t understand what a free market actually is, how supply and demand, and prices work. That’s both on the left and right.

It means it’s easy to enter. It means information is transparent to every participant. It means there are many sellers and buyers. An oligopoly, monopoly, monopsony, etc. isn’t a free market.

Markets often need regulation to become or remain free.
