What have you read or where did you get your understanding from?
Ok but socdem. And before you try to make a counter argument with [insert nordic country that is actually capitalist] just think about how they always call the ussr and china communist while they arent.
What are you trying to say?
That’s my point. It’s all about doing self-interested things like mutual aid. Mutual defense is in my self-interest. A dairy co-operative is in the farmers’ interest. Zebras move in herds because it is in their mutual self-interest.
The initial comment is saying communism is about self-sacrifice, against human nature. Kropotkin (I’ve read the book three times btw) convincing makes the case that it’s the opposite of self-sacrifice: about pursuing our natural mutual interest according to our evolutionary imperatives. Kropotkin would say that ruthless competition is against our evolutionary nature and imperatives because it disadvantages survival.
the initial argument only applies to Utopian Socialism anyway – fighting for your personal interest is exactly the point of communism, destroying all the enemies of the working class
authoritarianism has worked for thousands of years.
the Kahlil Gibran quote smells fake

grand, so the answer to your question “how is lemmy centralised” is “moderation and identity”, glad we had this chat
moderation aint centralised, as it is limited to an instance. Want to see what your instances Mods have removed? Open that community from its host instance. Also don’t like the work your instance Mods and Admins do? Just switch instance and you are still part of the platform.
nah I just checked if a mod removes it it’s removed from federated instances too I just checked
the question I was just asked = the context to the answer I gave
moderation
identity
It is stupid to go from one centralised platform to another centralised platform with the same governance model and expect different results.
Same conditions will lead to same results. The problem isn’t caused by the name or logo of Reddit.

Pro tip: aim low with new year’s resolutions
Don’t do lifestyle changes, instead resolve to read that long book you’ve had on your list, or visit China or something.
