According to some Jewish orgs it would (sometimes they’re also Zionist themselves though, especially all the big ones like the ADL). Depends what they think of the Beijing riots, but they essentially all consider downplaying the Holocaust as being Holocaust denial. Good catch comrade

Disclaimer: I’m not super happy with that page as it’s part of a bigger network of pages like contradiction, dialectics, materialism, etc. We decided to give every concept their own page ultimately (and naturally due to how wikis work) so that it cuts down on size, but it also disseminates information and you have to go look for it. Don’t hesitate to click on the blue links when you come across them.

there’s a fox and the rabbit and then there’s just a fox but it has a full belly now

The rabbit and fox form a contradiction; the fox wants to eat the rabbit, but the rabbit doesn’t want to be eaten; they are diametrically opposed. Yet one cannot exist without the other, the fox would die if it didn’t eat the rabbit, and as the fox eats rabbits, it keeps the population in check and prevents an ecological collapse of the rabbit population. When the fox eats the rabbit, the contradiction is resolved and another one appears. This is often misconstrued as “thesis-antithesis-synthesis”. Put enough contradictions together and you have dialectics happen

Since it’s dialectics-posting time on hexbear, perhaps I can offer this primer

But if I don’t get new console now how will people know I exist? How will I know I am real?

You see people on lemmygrad and hexbear stop recommending people join their respective sites…?

That’s funny cause I moderate lemmygrad and we used to get a lot of bot account requests for online “pharmacies”

I’m glad there are liberals like you around to tell us communists who is really communist

Lifting 800 million people out of poverty is denying them human rights, damn Europe must be a gulag compared to that

You don’t want an instance to defend themselves when being accused of something and possibly punished with defederation? Wow that sounds pretty authoritarian not a good look my dude do you not believe in due process and the rule of law?

If there were actual bots on lemmy they would be selling you cialis and viagra, THINK chico

Lemmy was created by communists, with lemmygrad and hexbear being among the first to exist. Lemmygrad second instance after lemmy ml actually. Do you see us cry and stop recommending it because there are libs on our sites?

So we have to pretend political plurality is inherently and self evidently good now?

Have you tried not letting it hear Spanish?

I’ve had some success with it if I’m giving it small tasks and describe in as much detail as possible. By design (from what I gather) it can only work on stuff it was able to use in training, which means the language needs to be documented extensively for it to work.

Stuff like Wordpress or MediaWiki code it does generally good at, actually helped me make the modules and templates I needed on mediawiki, but for both of those there’s like a decade of forum posts, documentation, papers and other material that it could train with. Fun fact: in one specific problem (using a mediawiki template to display a different message whether you are logged in or not), it systematically gives me the same answer no matter how I ask. It’s only after enough probing that GPT tells me because of cache issues, this is not possible lol. I figure someone must have asked about this same template somewhere and it’s the only thing it can work off of from its training set to answer that question.

I also always double-check the code it gives me for any error or things that don’t exist.

You’re not wrong with the SWCC, it might be to generalist a term. Likewise for the communist/socialist demarcation, I think we agree but in different ways.

It’s possible documents can confuse new readers, but I think that remains to be proven. Sometimes there’s also good analysis in places, and bad analysis in others. One thing we don’t want to do is edit the works we put in the library, which is something that marxists.org does, like editing Stalin to make him look bad. We’re strictly a publisher for now.

Hey, thanks for the feedback.

For Mao, I asked our resident China expert and am waiting for a response; we’ll see what he says. Although I think it would make sort of a minute difference to move Mao’s card as his work was mostly about China’s material conditions and SWCC takes what he laid down; would you move Lenin because Marxism-leninism is a post-Lenin invention too? 😄

Socialist doesn’t necessarily mean marxist, and Gaddafi joins the row of people like MLK or Einstein (for whom we have only 1 work so they don’t have their own cards). Gaddafi’s writings are unfamiliar to me personally, but we talked about him quite a bit with the editorship, including people who are familiar with him, and the consensus is that he was a socialist to some extent, but certainly not a communist or a marxist.

As for the documents, our goal is to rehost every major document from communist parties around the world so as to archive them… but between what we want to do and what we have the current capabilities of doing is a lot of ground to cover lol. Sometimes we also rehost documents we intend to use as sources.
