/meta/ - Ruthless criticism of all that exists (in leftypol.org)

Thesis: Anonymity plus free speech is revolutionary because it allows dialectics without ego. It allows people to advance mistaken positions, get corrected by the masses, change their mind, and adopt a new position without a transitional period of shame or remorse.

Antithesis: Anonymity plus free speech is reactionary. It allows mobs of backwards people to swamp young and impressionable minds by advancing simple, easily repeated, bigoted and chauvinist narratives.

Synthesis: Anonymity with a strong well-read ideologically committed modocracy allows dialectics without ego… as long as you ban namefags and get rid of flags.

This site needs an /x/ board. Honestly, that's kind of what I used most often in both 4chan and in Soyjak.party. I think that a lot of paranormal things can be seen in a leftist lens, and it'd be interesting to see what everyone's perspective is. Plus, i just think it'd be cool. What do you guys think?

Lack of moderation is driving me crazy, look at all this shit.
WTF is going on with our moderation ATM? Just a couple of examples of the utter shit no self-respecting janny would have left up a few years ago:

Most of this is just shit bait by bad-actors sliding or straight up has nothing to do with the left posted by clearly special needs tourists.
I'm making this here because i already beg them to moderate the site there regularly and they will just simply refuse to read /meta/. All i am asking for is the mods to do the job they are here to do and keep the site in a half-decent state, If they are unwilling to do this why are they mods here in the first place? Jannitorial team should not be some power nonsense for your private chats, if you don't want to do the job then leave.

For non-prudential, fully-hinged and dialectically reasonable purposes, I propose we have a sfw siberia and a nsfw siberia, for better facilitation of sillyposting of the sweet and spicy veriety.
- a general hangout for users visiting the site while at work/school that isn't an overboard.
- a place where threads for nsfw topics that aren't popular enough to keep up with the bumprate of /siberia/ but still worth exptensive discussion could last longer.
- we could give the nsfw board a funny name

But can’t do a damned fucking thing about the fascists flooding the fucking site?

Cowardly cunts never hesitate to delete a thread that criticizes your cowardly and lazy conduct, but will happily let overt fascists that don’t even bother to engage in the vile worthless tankie LARP free reign over this site?

Jannies and mods really are pathetic roaches, if the only people you prosecute are actual long time socialists why the FUCK DO YOU PEOPLE EXIST!?

Why is /pol/ypery allowed as long as Russian nationalists do it?
https://archive.is/wSE7M
Atleast half of the rules were broken by Russian nationalists in this thread alone, and go back through this general and it is always like this.
Do we give Russian nationalists leeway for a certain reason, because those posts are indistinguishable from something you would see on 4chan, or do mods approve of thread quality like this?

So, I wrote this as a response to >>>/leftypol/2230222, but I thought, I might as well post is as a general criticism to the whole chan… And so, I guess I'll post it here.

I'm a leftist. I came as a refugee from 4chan. I've been browsing this board, looking for replacement of my favorite boards, and noticed that there are no boards for math, science (hard or social sciences), engineering, history or economics/finance. Let me give you an example of why I think it would be a good idea to have those. It's a rather extreme example, but bear with me.

See the pic? Do you know why the legacy of Chavez failed? It's because they wasted a ton of money on useless crap. What you will hear from many of those venezuelan emigrants (esp. from the middle class ones) is that the Chavez government would give them cash for the most stupid shit, like tourism. They would be given hundreds or even thousands of dollars to travel to other countries. That's basically throwing money away and fucking stupid for a 3rd world country that depends on sale of raw materials. I'd guess those were part of the "social programs" the defenders talk about so much…
His government also gave a ton of "help" in the form of money and resources to other government and people from other countries. Do you think those countries helped them back when things went downhill for Venezuela?
If you don't know some basic math, history, have a sense of basic personal finances and at least some knowledge of technical matters, then how are you supposed to put things in perspective? Let's say you are the president (aka manager) of a country. You have to manage a TON of resources and want to change how things work (a la Chavez or Trump). You start moving money from some areas of your govt. to other areas, and then people complain that you cut a ton of jobs, killed programs that you thought were useless but are actually fundamental to have a basic modern society (like, say, weather forecasting) or whatever. And, since you already sent that money elsewhere, you have no money left, so you have to ask someone to lend money to your government, which means you will have to pay MORE money in the future. See where I am going? This shit repeats even at a domestic level.

Being stupid with money, ignorant of how our current society works, not knowing how hard and context-sensitive technical matters are, and not being able to have some sense of the history of thingPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Why is it if you are a flagfag or namefag you cvn get away with anything with no ban?
People like Sandinistanon or Felix literally only post to break the rules you wrote yet they are in here day-in, day-out?
The whole moderation of this site comes across as incredibly disingenuous.

>>>/leftypol/2203691
hazbin hotel glownonymous forgot to use tor node so there's no real excuse to not just get his ass permabanned finally. i mean seriously, nonstop trolling and thread derailing for nearly a year now. 555 come on now

ummm can somebody please explain to me why blatant racist posting is either allowed on the board or gets removed without any mod action or ban whatsoever, but someone posting peepeepoopoo a single time is banworthy as "spam"? Can someone pinch me, or am I dreaming and actually using reddit in my sleep?
