borschtisgarbo@lemmygrad.mlto Ask Lemmygrad@lemmygrad.ml•What happens when everything gets automated under capitalism? Does it just become socialism by that point?0·1 month agoNo, they would not. That is something a more socially oriented government would do, capitalists have no interest in employing everyone and anyone. It goes against their interests

borschtisgarbo@lemmygrad.mlOPto Comradeship // Freechat@lemmygrad.ml•I got banned from Hexbear (in my opinion!) unreasonably, cannot appeal the ban or anything because my account is based in Lemmygrad0·1 month agoGlass half full or half empty is the question here. Hexbear is usually really nice and I didn’t expect my post to be received the way it was. I understand the original post was bad, but I wish is would’ve been given a bit of a chance. I understand the mods choice, but I feel it was done out of misunderstanding. I didn’t portray my views properly at all leading to people to think I was saying things I really didn’t mean to. I improved on it here and could’ve done better still as I find myself in the replies here. Don’t wanna drag you into a long argument, don’t feel obliged to respond
borschtisgarbo@lemmygrad.mlOPto Comradeship // Freechat@lemmygrad.ml•I got banned from Hexbear (in my opinion!) unreasonably, cannot appeal the ban or anything because my account is based in Lemmygrad0·1 month agoMy main argument here, that I failed to properly portray in the post on Hexbear and which I probably could’ve expanded on further here, is that anti-Semitism does not take the form of state repression. Anti-Semitism exists in the same sense that anti-white racism exists. There may be some who genuinely don’t like white people, though that does not translate in any meaningful way into the machinations of the state. There is no institutionalised anti-white sentiment, same applies to Jewish people. This is not me saying anti-Semitism doesn’t exist, it does. People do call Jews bad things, slurs, or otherwise. But racism, more generally, is not individual incidents of hate crimes, it is the wielding of state power to repress one group or another, a group which is made to be racially inferior.
I wouldn’t want it to be a sticking point myself. I am trying to, in some vain hope of being unbanned, explain myself properly. I would’ve liked if I was just made a punching bag in the posts comments, then moved on, but I was banned and now I feel the need to defend myself.

It was, as I said here, made in the context of liberal Zionist, regular Zionist and “pro-Palestinian” people unnecessarily centering anti-Semitism when it is, realistically, fringe
