I’m off Twitter and on Mastodon since November 2022. Mastodon is such a chill place once you’ve found people to follow and made sure the trolls are blocked. Staying off Reddit has been harder, but it’s also a shadow of its former self. Lemmy isn’t quite what Reddit used to be, but neither is Reddit these days. Too much noise, not enough signal
You are defining “communism” to mean not whatever Lenin, Stalin, Mao, and friends did. That’s fine. Repudiating those monsters is great. However, when you do that you might as well call your thing anarcho-something and not “communism” to make it clear that you are not a fan of having a vanguard of idiots seize power and rule on behalf of a dictatorship of the proletariat in order to eventually hope to achieve a communist society by first having a strong central power as a transitional phase.
Keep on not licking the tank treads crushing freedom like the ones that destroyed the Prague Spring of 1968 and the Hungarian Uprising of 1956 and you won’t be called a tankie
I certainly block every .ml community I see and it’s working great for me.
