Every time someone posts this meme, I feel compelled to add "forums for communists".

Big Tech made Lemmy so that communists wouldn't organize in real life

Nah, infighting always works best.

I think your priorities are in the wrong place if you think about "forums for communists" instead of "telegram channels with incel nazis".

I interpreted it as them mentioning lemmy (since lots of lemmy users are communists or socialists of some flavor), but if they meant to complain I agree with you completely

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

The former. Being subversive doesn't imply it's bad.

[–] Leomas@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago (4 children)

Now I feel compelled to ask: Do you this meme is seriously asking for opinions on subversive innovations? Because I interpreted it as asking what is the most dystopian.

[–] Leomas@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

And I hope you would agree nazis killing people are more dystopian than fucking larpers.

I took it as the poll itself, and the results, being entirely irrelevant. They just decided to use that as the format/delivery mechanism for their joke.

It was, but tech lawlessness swings both ways, or has so far, and it's worth mentioning.

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

It appears to me that the meme is complaining about tech breaking laws, not soliciting opinions. In case this needs to be said, I'm using Lemmy because of its ability to resist (legal!) censorship, especially of long-overdue leftist speech.

You forgot femboys and linux users

[–] DupaCycki@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

But then the poll would make little sense, because forums for communists would win with 99.97% of votes...

I wish the average person was as open minded as you're giving them credit.
