Hi everyone,

As most of you know, this subreddit has a system of flairs that allow users to add context to their activity on the sub with information about their history and tendencies as well as allow a degree of personalization. In the past we've gone through various phases of adding or removing flairs based upon different justifications. Lacking any strong guiding principle of what flairs we should have and why, as well as a relative lack of interest has lead to a bit of a deadlock on what we're doing with the system and lead to a standing freeze on flairs that has lasted for quite a while.

Since the system for setting them up is now in a more workable state, I would like to reach out

With the new moderators installed a week ago, r/Socialism's mod team has been having some serious discussions about the future of this sub and the best way to advance our cause. Unfortunately, irreconcilable differences have lead to a split in the moderation team. Though they will retain their modship for the next few days, a faction lead by r/Jackissocool will soon have their modship revoked. The reason for this is their unrepentant liberalism.

r/Socialism is taking a new hardline stance against liberalism, state capitalism, tankies, infantile disorder-ism, and a large variety of other issues plaguing and weakening the left today. The following tendencies have officially been banned fr

With our relative influx of new users, many of which don't (in particular) know much about socialism, socialist traditions, or this sub specifically, we've decided to open up a thread specifically for getting answers to questions which you haven't seen answered elsewhere, or are just curious about. Feel free to ask the sub any questions you might have, big or small.

As a reminder, r/socialism_101, r/communism101, and r/Anarchy101 all exist for asking basic questions, as do debate subs like r/DebateCommunism. Those are all also fantastic places to go to get your questions answered, and, because this thread is not permanent, are likely to be better resources to consult in the future.

There are pretty vast oil reserves in various parts of the arctic circle. Ignoring for the moment all of the issues over people trying to tap these reserves, I'd like to get some sort of an idea as to where all of that oil came from to begin with? What was the source for that biomass?

In places like the Middle East and the Gulf of Mexico I understand that there were warm climates, where algae was successful enough that it could completely outpace the rate at which it was consumed and decomposed, thus building up as sediment, getting trapped in high-pressure oxygen-poor environments, and then often getting trapped by plate tectonics under even more pressure and heat.

But this makes me won

Welcome to all of you out there who would like to fight for a voice in World Government uncorrupted by rigid blocks of old-world thinking. As we establish a truly new world order, independence from any of the old rigid ideologies is an important step forward in order to secure a better, more prosperous future. It is important for us to develop new ways forward for a new age.

I would like to extend an extra-special welcome to any sheeple out there who would like to join the ranks of the illuminati, in order to further this new path. We believe in embracing the new: in the transformative impacts of technology, in new leaders having never-before-possible depths of knowledge which are enable

Long ago, early on April 1st, I first arrived here, and was puzzled by the strange and mysterious ways of the button. I looked, was puzzled, and, enthralled was drawn to press the button in the high 50s... Needless to say, I was deeply disappointed with myself immediately thereafter, and sulked away from this sub, somewhat disgusted with myself.

But, now I return to find that I am, in fact a non-presser. I am apparently redeemed, unable to be corrupted by mere sins of the mouse, and, as proof, the packet was snatched out of the aether before it doomed me.

Join me, and I can share with you my wisdom, such that you may reclaim your true identity as well.

...No, seriously though, I don't

This change would simultaneously:

  • Make these semi-useless weapons useful.

  • Provide a counter to bombers, while still allowing them a very viable niche.

  • Make sense in terms of current game mechanics and themes. The point of defender missiles is to destroy weapons targeted at you. The point of FoF missiles is to destroy aggressed threats which you cannot lock. If a bomb is in range, it is always targeting you, and is always aggressed.

  • Reward strategic counterplay and role-differentiation.

It would not instantly fix the meta, but it would go a decent way towards it by allowing battleships fleets a reasonable way to defend themselves against bombers, but only if those battleship f
