Dibs on unironic Posadism.
Let’s get some Georgists and Monarchists in the thread.
Corvid supremacist. I think crows and ravens should rule the world and I dedicate my life to trying to enable mass corvid to human communication
no more half measures walter
I am interested in joining your sect
A tithe of french fries and shiny objects is required weekly
misread this as covid supremacist lmao
Unfortunately if this were the case I’d be indistinguishable from your average Alex Jones supporter
If 19 Corvids wanted to decimate humanity, I’d let them.
I just ask them what they think communism is and then I say “you’re absolutely right” and defend whatever they said.
Have you considered that the old people pushing the trains might be happy?
Lmao this might be my favorite.
“The DPRK’s just doing that to ensure fitness. They see how obesity is such a problem in other countries and are trying to prevent that at home.”
:chad: Lmao that’s hilarious

DPRK Foucault is a golden bit
I would gladly argue for a system of governance based around swords handed out by watery tarts
Yeah I’m an anarcho-monarchist
Literally J.R.R. Tolkien
lmao yeah that’s what I was thinking of actually
We love our beautiful emojis don’t we folks?
Is there a trick to using them beyond memorising the commands?
The little smiley face in the input box is the emoji picker
ah damn, none of the android apps I’ve tried have that icon. Thanks for the tip
Then save this link: https://hexbear.net/post/335326
I saw that initially, but couldn’t figure out how to see the text after it loads the image.
i call being one of the watery tarts
seems like it would have good benefits
You do get a whole lake all to yourself
I subscribe to tankieism. It’s all about tanks. I support any state that currently has the most tanks.
The Romans were closest to the truth. We are the real gods–we who reside on Mount Olympus. Hexbear is only a collection of covert cults dedicated to us. If it looks like communism is the dominant ideology here, that is only because communism is objectively, divinely correct.
Romans? You actually believe Rome existed? Lmao ok
I was there, I seent it. Very gay. Fun place. Shame about all the slavery though
Fantastic bit <3
you know what czechia really needs? the habsburgs back. i wanna give full control of everything over to this guy and his 26 year old race car driving son
honestly find it hilarious that theyre deeply steeped into race car driving at this point and his daughter married some random race car driver. monarchists are rolling in their graves
Talk about over compensating for the stereotype of the Hapsburg chin.
its literaly what they say on on lemmyworld. they think we are libs in disgise.
The only kind of Lib I like is LibGen and I miss it very much
They’re right, everyone here is a lib in disguise.
Except me, the one true leftist.
Or we could all just lean into Posadist accelerationism really hard for a few days?
Yachts sink a lot easier with nuclear weapons
When OP beats you to the joke
The beatings shall continue until morale improves
No, I insist that we ban Georgism from this bit. There are enough real Georgists floating around Lemmy that I don’t want to give them the satisfaction that their bullshit “one weird trick” is even a real ideology like Posadism or Fourierism.
Georgism is like if you sent a guy from 1890 who had vaguely heard of socialism back in time to 1790, and he got drunk and tried to articulate the idea to someone without outing himself as a time traveler, and someone overheard that conversation and decided to form a program.

I have seen several pop in to federated discussions. Mostly on Lemmygrad, and disproportionately from programming.dev. As it seems to be a certain type of leftist inclined tech-bro’s belief in technocratic tweaks fixing things.
Also, only slightly related, but Georgist Twitter is a thing that exists with a decent amount of accounts and @as_a_worker (Antifada podcast host) routinely dunks on.

i do not believe there are enough georgists to make a basketball team
Omg I was just about to call Georgist
What’s a georgist?
Georgism is an obscure ideology based around the writings of 19th century economist Henry George, who argued that a host of social problems emerge due to inequalities in the distribution of land and other natural resources, and his solution was to impose a land value tax based on the value of unimproved land. His seminal work, Progress and Poverty, made a couple valid points, including a refutation of Malthusianism and a thesis that technological development could not solve poverty under the current exploitative system, and he popularized the economic concept that later became known as “externalities.” It had a moment where it was hugely popular, and it inspired a lot of Progressive Era and New Deal reformers in the US. However, he was writing around the same time as Marx, and his arguments lacked an understanding of class interests.
George claimed that he had, “united the truth perceived by the school of Smith and Ricardo to the truth perceived by the schools of Proudhon and Lasalle,” and he seemed to believe that it was possible to unite proletariat and bourgeois interests against that of landowners (despite the significant overlap and unity of interests between bourgeoisie and landowners) in order to reform the system. That strategy is the reason why you haven’t heard of it, because Georgists have often resisted cooperation with the left in hopes of appealing to other liberals/capitalists, who generally dismiss them as socialists anyway. And of course, I can point to any number of examples of governments that attempted to reclaim their natural resources for the public good and were overthrown by CIA coups.
Today, it’s popular among weird cranks who want to find a technical policy solution that doesn’t require confronting power directly. Its central thesis, that the proposed reform would fix everything, is also its own refutation - if it fixes the problem, then the interests that benefit from the problem would never allow it to be passed.
I followed the monarchism subreddit for a while, I can cover that one. Basically you just pretend that revolution is the proper response to a bad monarch, but then you cry over the Romanovs. Also jerk off to the worst moustaches of all time.

Omg, guy who thinks the russian revolution was bad but only because they didn’t make Lenin a king

Libs would just fully support that
I think the only reasonable reaction to the wave of instability rocking West Africa and threatening our national interests is the establishment of some sort of South Atlantic Treaty Organisation (although we’ll obviously allow the US, Canada, and anyone in the EU to join even if they’re not technically on the South Atlantic)
I’m marxist-leninist-constitutionalist with originalist tendencies, all the amendments are revisionism
Post-Structural Hauntological Bordigism
don’t ask me what any of those words mean
