"As revolutionaries, we don't have the right to say that we're tired of explaining. We must never stop explaining. We also know that when the people understand, they cannot but follow us. In any case, we, the people, have no enemies when it comes to peoples. Our only enemies are the imperialist regimes and organizations." Thomas Sankara, 1985

Would it be possible to ad bots like the ones from r/thedeprogram that discuss prevalent myths about Communism?

For example, the bot that talked about tiananmen square, it contained concise information that debunked common western narratives about the event.

Would this be useful though, considering lemmygrad is heavily vetted against right-wing infiltration?

Please, let me know what my fellow proles think.

I actually answered a similar question just today in this comment lol

Edit: You also raise a good point

From my understanding you're correct, Lemmygrad is already very protected from bad faith actors (thanks to tools like defederation and the vetting questions to sign up in the first place).

That also means however that this community is less visible to some users - specifically the ones that would benefit from those replies the most.

I would be curious to hear the community's opinion on this so I might make a separate post :)

Do you mean defederation as in a one-way mirror type thing where we see them but they can’t see us?

[–] Ancient_Egg_57@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 1 week ago

Exactly! Because Lemmygrad is already defederated from some (more popular) instances, that means that a user from one of those instances won't be able to interact with us or our content.

When talking about users who would benefit the most from our study guide and wiki, I'm referring to people who are not openly leftist or Marxist Leninist.

But because of defederation, those users have no direct access to our community, so it might be a good idea to consider how to approach that. I will likely make a post here to ask users for their opinions and feedbacks on this
