🚩✭ CONTENT POSTING RULES:

👎No bigotry or name calling of any kind. *
👎No calling people 'Tankies'
👎No Liberalism
👎No Trotskyism
👎No Anarchism
👎No Fascist apologia
👎 No Threats or insinuations of violence of any kind. Thats how we get quarantined and banned. There are more incognito ways of getting your point across.
👎 No law enforcement officers unless you are here to learn about why you should quit your job and stop being a class traitor.

*Name calling is okay if its directed at a fascist or a lib, but nothing problematic

🚩✭ COMMENT POSTING RULES: People who are curious or new to socialism, Anarchists, Liberals, Soc Dems and Trots, or other denominations of non-Marxist-Leninist socialism may post comments if their intent is to, in good faith, inquire about further details, context etc. that they may be learning about for the first time. I did not start out as a principled ML, I was aided in my political education by some brilliant individuals who pointed me in the write direction about how to analyze the world through a proper Marxist lense. All of us must in turn, pass on this torch so that our ranks will swell!.

However, if it is clear that your intent is merely to troll, start a flame war, flirt with casual xenophobia towards AES in the global south, and so on, you will be banned without hesitation.
