    Elections are a tool of the bourgeoisie to suppress the will of the people. Our vanguard party will take absolute control and act in interest of the people. To prevent bourgeoisie propaganda to be spread, we must censor anything that we deem to be reactionary. Everyone must learn our great ideology of our father Karl Marx, and Vladimir Lenin, and this shall be known as Marxism-Leninism. Anyone refusing to learn, anyone still holding on to their old ideology are secret western spies attempting to undermine our utopia. We must allow ourselves to be guided by our fuhrer ahem I mean, chairman, and do everything they says to acomplish this utopia. Its for the greater good! Pinky promise. 😉

      More like an il duce. Lenin’s idea of democracy (in practice) is a lot like Mussolini’s idea of “democracy.” I don’t think Hitler ever tried to pretend like Germany was democratic

      also the governance in Ukraine that Lenin desperately wanted to crush was anarcho-communist (called by most Ukrainians anarchism because communism as a term has been so heavily associated with the real bad times)

            I was not sure this decision was the right one. But the experience on Lemmy is far better without them, so I guess it was.

              You’re entitled to believe whatever you want, but when your political ideology includes supporting/encouraging/performing violence towards anyone who doesn’t agree with you, then yeah, you’re no longer invited to be a part of civil discussion.

          I think they finally got it into their head that they simply aren’t welcome amongst decent folk, other than a few stragglers.
