I'll make this brief. /leftypol/ was offline from around September 9, 2024 (Monday) until September 12, 2024 (Thursday). This was due to a hard disk failure on the server. When the split happened a few years ago, one of the previous mods/admins rented a bare metal server from a company (as opposed to a VPS/virtual machine instance) for us to host /leftypol/ on. As a result the hardware was not abstracted away. We were unable to boot the machine. Furthermore this individual, having paid for the server in advance, has since gone missing and has been so for at least 34 weeks. We were unable to log into the cloud account due to it sending his email address confirmation message which we were obviously unable to access. As a result, we could not ask the hosting company for support. Also as a result, the only thing we had access to was the cloudflare and a dated sql dump+copy of the source code. As far as I know, the media files (including pdfs), wiki, minecraft server, leftypol tv, etc. are all gone and even if the aforementioned individual returns, its possible that it still won't be able to be recovered due to the fact that they were on a hard disk that failed.

In order to rebuild /leftypol/ we had to secure new hosting, spin up and configure a server with software, firewall, etc. transfer and fix+configure the vichan/lain/leftypol source code, and load the SQL database dump, as well as configure cloudflare. This process was painstaking and slow. I suppose this goes to show the precarious nature of /leftypol/ in that both the domain name (paid for 10 years in advance and donated to the current mod team) and hosting have/are being paid by one individual as a passion project.

We are working diligently to secure backups so this will not happen again in the future.

Thank you for your patience - tech jannies

Can you manually change the OP pics so we dont have a catalog that looks like a 404 graveyard?

tl;dr
the american secret police took over and the site is a honeypot now

leftypol going down was my 9/11

what were the hourly board freezes for if we dont even have backups of images

On a more serious note can you people please for one learn the simple idea that revolving things around an individual in such a way creates a massive unecessaru point of failure - and general volitility what with the characters involved - instead of walking into this problem again and again and afauckingain?

looks like mods just removed a comment ripping into the leftypol team for keeping everything on a server they didn't even own lol

>>35129
what comment?

>>35130
it was only up for a second, I didn't think to screengrab it. This sort of stuff is way outside my knowlege base but the commenter seemed to know his shit and was naturally quite appalled at their lack of foresight lol

And nothing of value was lost.

File: 1726189850028.png (453.65 KB, 540x793, ClipboardImage.png)

So if I'm understanding this right, and I am probably not, to be frank:

-Leftypol and everything else, including the source, was hosted on a server the admins did not control
-The server had no redundancy in storage and no backups were kept elsewhere
-The version controlled source was also kept remotely with no updated local copies (Isn't it a git repository? How does this even happen?)

Why are you lying though?

No posts have been deleted.
There are lots of reasons people delete their own posts, so as not to double post, to fix errors, to add to what they were saying, because they accidentally clicked reply.
Only reason to jump to the assumption the jannies MUST have insta-deleted it (have you legitimately ever seen these retards 'insta' do anything?) is to be a bad faith faggot.

>>35134
Coming back online is fine, even if most of the posters are retarded, I just wouldn't even bother wasting more time looking for backups for posts from the last few weeks.
Imageboards are ephemeral by nature and anyone posting on them should realize that before making any post anyway, too.

I'm just glad leftypol is back

I'm Brazilian and I'm writing through a translator.
I thought I was banned from Leftypol for a while because I had said some random nonsense like numbers in some threads and I thought it was spam. But then I read on the internet that the server was under maintenance, I also saw some noises on leftychan and lemygrand. I have some threads downloaded from Kuboraex, I once read that this is against the ephemeral nature of chans, but I like to keep them saved for a moment.
Is it possible to hold a new election of moderators or an extraordinary congress? Is it possible to create a funding campaign or a note "in defense of Leftypol"?

These are my 2 cents about the maintenance of Leftypol.

>>35142
>Is it possible to hold a new election of moderators or an extraordinary congress? Is it possible to create a funding campaign or a note "in defense of Leftypol"?
As stupid as I find the mods, or at least the most active ones, this is just as stupid of an idea. Fucking larpers, holy shit.

>>35143
the pool of people who would both make good mods and are willing to do so is actually pretty small.

>>35143
My party, the PCBR (Brazilian Revolutionary Communist Party) was created in 2023 from a split in the PCB and we added in our 1st extraordinary founding congress, which took place in May 2024, that if 50% of the cells vote for a new congress, the central committee will be dissolved and a new congress will be called.

Because of what I experienced recently, I thought it might be possible to do something similar in Leftypol, but I know little about the dynamics of chans, I started using Leftypol quite frequently a few months ago.

But it is always better to explain everything in detail and ask and answer as many questions as possible to avoid confusion and misunderstandings.

>>35145
Why are alleged communists the most rampant upholders of democracy? Also you're on a fucking imageboard, not some irrelevant electoralist party.

>>35143
it's bait, it is a parody of what a guy trying to become a mod would say

>>35147
I don't want to become a Mod, I'm already too busy with college, my studies and activism in the "PCBR". I asked the question to find out what the comrades think about this and mentioned an idea I was thinking about, but at this moment I'm convinced that it wouldn't be a good idea to change the moderation.

>>35146
The PCBR is not an electoral party and we are not a legalized party in Brazil at this time.

At least you're aware it's not proletarian organizing.

>… All files gone.
>thousands of /edu/ and other old effortposts are now half-worthless
>Hundreds of my effortposts are gone
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH I'm legitimately pissed off right now. What the actual FUCK mods?

>>35150
I was also upset, there were a lot of cool things in edu that I was leaving to see later and maybe I'll never see again. I managed to download and save some cool things on other boards and wires. ://

>>35151
>>35150
Well just so the mods know I'm a bit OCD about archiving. So a large number of threads are on archive.is, and many image-files, so not everything is lost, but in terms of actually continuing to use the threads? Nah I'm done. Someone else can make posts about the Samurai and Ancient Japan, because clearly I was wasting my time making sure Embeds had back-ups when this shit happens.

forget pissed, I'm LIVID.

Also as a side note, the stupidest thing is that unlike many other forums and imageboards where posting the exact same image file again in a new thread will cause the already posted files on the site will revive, this is not the case with leftypol.org. I warned the mods about this problem years ago, when I noticed files that went missing did not restore after re-uploading the exact same files.

As an example see the F-35 thread I made months ago, 2 pdfs were uploaded there (files rel) and are now defunct. I can repost these pdfs as many times as I want, but they won't refresh, so the only way to fix it would be for the mods to manually reupload each file for each thread… and they're never gonna bother doing that.

Even worse, because people use Clipboard image a lot, it's almost impossible to tell what files were lost for those posts unless someone (i.e. ME) archived them.

this is literally Watson levels of fucking up.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

>>35152
Also I noticed files and posts are missing for the past 3 weeks. I uploaded a video-file in the Piracy thread on /tech/ around then and made other posts since then, and NONE of it is there anymore. I specifically remember because the file is an upload of an Embedded video in the thread.

Pic rel was an early effortpost of mine among many and I expanded it into a full-blown essay, because I do read and study history.

>>35157
I mean I archived most threads I posted in that I care about, including Catalog pages, so as to make finding archived threads easier, but point is that still active, actual threads are now functionally dead because nobody is going to want to post seriously in a thread with 404'd images, missing posts or outright looking like gibberish because the coding failed entirely and redtext is no longer functional.

>>35156

See, this is why I specified "good books", because the average poster has this exact stereotypical illiterate American behavior regarding books where reading literally anything is le good and smart. I bet you own a bookshelf with a lot of stuff you don't even like just for the aesthetics.

>>35157
People unironically educate themselves with tweets or, in this case, leftypol screencaps.

I didn't save the edit but I got this version.

>>35161
>reading literally anything is le good
Your strawman is pathetic nor am I a burger. My books are those that I found interesting and bought, ranging from zoology to biographies, autobiographies, history, classical literature and so on, or belonged to my family during the USSR, with many being original publications from the 30s, 40s and 50s, all of which I read. I don't keep books I don't like or use, it's a waste of space I don't have.

TL;DR: You're a presumptuous moron that can't read, and because you're mad about it, you play at being a (pseudo)intellectual because you feel insecure.

>>35162
>hurr effortposts don't matter because they're not books.
This is (or rather was) leftypol. Educated discussion is part of what made this site, and screencapping good posts has been a thing on imageboards since the old days for good reason, since rather than reposting the same exact shit you can post a screencap of it and instead say something new.

>>35166
>you play at being a (pseudo)intellectual because you feel insecure
You're the one who had to bring up how many books they read in school, lmfao.

>>35163
>larpy attempt at sounding tough
How the fuck is this "sounding tough", it's READING.

>people arent gonna post anymore because they cant use the funny meme arrows

That's not what I said you speed-reader. Because redtext is no longer functional, many posts that used it, now have text errors that mutilate the posts into being incomprehensible.
>>>/alt_archive/3041 As an example.

i sincerely hope the staff takes thing easy because catering to spergs will only make them act even more pedantic. if things are lost theyre lost, whatever, thats how imageboards work (shrug)

>>35155
almost all imageboards are dead or dying

>>35167
Actually I read them outside of school, because outside of America people read books in their free time.
As for saying lots of books, it's because if I actually began to list these books, it would go outside of the line-limit of posts.

In terms of non-fiction I read Marx and Lenin and Engels before I began posting on leftypol back in 2015, because I unlike some blowhards, I try to KNOW what I talk about. If I'm discussing the engineering aspects of an F-35 and why it's a shit plane, I do the research as to why, which is why the thread on the F-35 is, despite memes and remarks, based on specific examples of failures of the aircraft relative to design parameters that previous generations of aircraft had by default.
If I speak of fantasy novels, I read them before I make snap judgements about their merits, because any monkey can watch an ECeleb jabber hot takes about "Harry Potter" or "Conan the Barbarian" and parrot them, yet any lengthy discussion immediately reveals if they have or have not actually read or tried to understand the material.

>>35171
Look at all the irrelevant credentials you keep bringing up because I said "effortposts" aren't important and ask yourself who's the "insecure pseud".
Intellectuals aren't important for communism either. ;)


>>35173
>He says while posting on a korean nuke-cooking forum
LOL

>>35172
>Intellectuals aren't important for communism either.
Communism as an ideology was written by intellectuals, and every actual socialist has valued intellectual progression and education. The USSR prioritized education because, surprise-surprise, industrialization and improving human living standards can't be done when you're an illiterate peasant that doesn't know anything outside of the village you live in.
But then again, Pol-pot wannabes like you don't understand that.

>irrelevant credentials

Literal /pol/-tier mentality. It's not about credentials you stupid twat, and the fact that you think that is my point is why I called you an insecure pseud.

>>35175
some old threads can get merged in or fall off naturally.

Y'know, I never thought my little hobby for archiving this site will ever come to use, but hey, I have some threads archived. I can't guarantee all the links will work, or that any of them will interest you (I only archived the ones I found interesting) but at least it's something:

There are both redaundancy and backups, but we need the credentials of the admin-that-shall-not-be-named to fix the booting process and access the backups.

Idk where you (or cyber?) got this, the source is up to date, but the configuration file wasn't tracked in the repository source code since it contained sensible passwords and tokens.

>>35133
A huge issue is that nobody is willing to pay or to use their name to host a server. These two issues led to us being forced to not have enough resources to have a technically sound setup. It wasn't for lack of technical experience or negligence. The now-dead server has a separate ftp storage where things were being backed up, because that's what we had access to. Unfortunately, that is only accessible via the server or using admin credentials we don't have (see the OP).

You guys do it for free so just chillax and let the completely uncritical things like broken images stay broken TBH. They'll get rolled off the catalog eventually anyway.

>>35194
Not having multiple people with admin accounts to the server, or a break-glass account protected with Shamir's secret sharing so a quorum of mods/admins was needed to access, was negligent.

Having backups on the server being backed up was negligent. You could have multiple mods/admins taking a nightly (asymmetric encrypted) backups to a S3 compatible cloud storage for cheap. If you just did the code and text it would cost almost nothing.

>>35197
oh yeah using ssss is a good idea

>>35197
>>35195
There's two factor authentication on the account, not by choice. Plus, there is a permanent lack of willing dev people willing to volunteer time for extended periods of time.

>>35197
>You could have multiple mods/admins taking a nightly (asymmetric encrypted) backups to a S3 compatible cloud storage for cheap. If you just did the code and text it would cost almost nothing.
Really cool that you have domain knowledge in this and are volunteering to do the work.

I already informed the other devs you'll be working on this. Feel free to drop by the matrix chat so we can coordinate and help you achieve this. And again thank you for volunteering your skills and time.

>>35200
Okay but I'm going to use the access to unban Iron Felix and find the real Lenincap.

>>35201
Well, you don't really need admin access, but ok i guess.
Ask in the leftypol chat to get in contact with the devs. They'll patch you through.

>>35192
We looked into making a non profit to solve the acces issues to the site in the past but its basically fucking impossible to make an non profit involving people from different countries. Usually they have to be citizens of wherever the nonprofit is registered. Thats why it was never done. We looked into other ways to do some magical technological mumbo jumbo to somehow share keys like the fucking horcruxes so we would all have acces and veto but alas we couldnt find something workable.

Unless you set up a non profit and trust the legislation of said place to side with you, you basically cant get around to the fact that internet websites always have a single point of failure in the fact that one individual owns either the server or the domain and can torpedo it by couping or disappearing.

>>35203
Also at the time nobody (including myself) was willing to put out their real name. At the time you still had to put up your real name to rent a domain in the EU which is why I transferred it to someone else due to not wanting to endanger my family during a time where leftypol was still a genuine target of the alt right.

Is the canary still there?

>>35204
You're also volunteering? And to pay for storage? Comrade, how generous!

Yes, that's true, I don't even know who you are and you don't even know who I am, I was thinking about making some memes about Leftypol's downfall in Brazil's thread.

You mean the one split over the Communist Party "taking sides" in the "imperialist" Russian war against Ukraine? (specifically for refusing to take a pro-Ukrainian stance)
Do NOT let these people become mods
>>35149
Also this. "Student activists" have no business leading anything.

>>35215
We believe that Russia's aggression against Ukraine is completely unjustifiable, but for the working class no bourgeois state should be defended, but rather that we should raise the flags of peace without annexation. I will never defend Zelensky, his government and how he covers up for Nazis and fascists, but I will defend the greatest victim in this tragedy, the Ukrainian and Russian working people, denouncing Russia's imperialism against the former members of the USSR and NATO for financing the destruction of Ukraine.

>>35215
>Also this. "Student activists" have no business leading anything.

what did you mean by that?

>>35216
>we should raise the flags of peace without annexation.
I.e. Russia kicked out of Donbas, Crimea, ban on communism and communist parties expanded to these regions, locals forcibly Ukrainized, Ukraine later joins NATO
Also known as being "Pro-NATO"

We should look at the consequences of our actions, not the metaphysical "essence" of the actors involved.
>>35217
Parties, states and movements should be led by people with life experience. Work, families. Lenin held a job before being appointed to senior positions in a revolutionary group. And didn't co-found a party until much later. Same goes for Stalin.

>>35218
I see, what do you advocate and think in general about the war in Ukraine?

>>35216
>Russia's aggression against Ukraine is completely unjustifiable
if its something even a socialist state would have done (and not specifically to liberate the population from bourgeois rule, would just be a side effect, the real reason is security), its absolutely hypocritical to call it "unjustifiable"

>denouncing Russia's imperialism

russia aint imperialist in the marxist sense

but we shouldnt shit up the thread with that eternally rehashed discussion

thank for your service. But still, that was kind of a shitshow, nobody having access to the backup, and not because the guy is absent for a few weeks, but for more than 6 months without doing anything about it or warning the users. I remember the beef against space on bunkerchan started because of lack of server access to improve things…
not knowledgeable on hosting, but cant you do all this shit anonymously though bitcoins and fake names. How do the scammers do it

As you're Brazilian. Struggle for the interests of the Brazilian working class, especially locally. As an act of solidarity, not pity for the "oppressed". Work with the government in some cases, against the governments in others. Reject contrarianism for the sake of. And if you intend to elect anyone, start locally.
And recognize the abolition of nation-states as a progressive development. Analyze every event and movement in terms of what it achieves, what it is doing, not the "essence" of those involved.
This is the Marxist/Leninist approach. It led to Marx praising the Union against the South. It led to Mao cooperating with the KMT against the Japanese.

I encourage you and your party to reject essentiallism and metaphysics. And critically examine the influence of Christianity in your (and your party's) worldview.

Good afternoon, thank you for the reading suggestion, I will read it later.
Unfortunately, the chan site is not the best for debate and I myself do not believe I explained my party's position well - and the simplicity of my speech actually allowed me to understand the situation in a metaphysical way, something I try to overcome with studies -, among other things because I do not understand the subject deeply, but I recognize that I should study more and understand the subject better.

I am very young, I turned 20 last month, and I always avoid being sectarian in my views and speech, but time can improve and refine my worldview.

I can write more about what I thought of the text later!!!

It's not smugness comrade. It is easy to criticise the efforts of others. Doing so from a place of complacency and uninvolvement is rather jarring. We do this literally for free, I have had to cancel or cut short events of my personal life plus have been severely sleep deprived at work to serve you all these past few days.

I am pushing you to participate in the process so you are familiar with what it is like in the trenches or at least instill in you some empathy. Mod turnover is large in part because it not even thankless work, rather the opposite, selfless work that goes criticized every single step of the way, sometimes rather harshly, by people who are not willing to put in the effort themselves, to put their hands on the fire. Not even mentioning how hard it is to work with other people. Anyone who has had several jobs can attest to this.

Thank you for offering to put some of your own crypto, sorry for the trouble this incident has caused. It is a very lamentable loss for the entire community.

As of 9/13/2024 we have enabled automatic periodic backups of the files/media and sql database dump to an S3 compatible object storage, as well as enabled automatic periodic server snapshots/backups in order to enable efficacious and swift disaster recovery in the event this happens again. Multiple members of the technical team have access to the s3 credentials so that they can access it.

I was reading the text and I know Jones Manoel personally, in fact he is a member of my party, lol.

I live in Pernambuco and in the same city where Jones lived before he became famous.

I really like Jones' positions but I have read very few of his books - in fact, new books are expensive in Brazil and I don't really like reading on screens, I always try to print the texts I read - but I always watch his videos. In fact, I think I'll see him again today at a meeting. I'll finish reading the text and comment more on what I thought, sorry for taking so long to read it.

https://blackagendareport.com/western-marxism-loves-purity-and-martyrdom-not-real-revolutionI

I finished reading the text the Jones writes well on the subject. I feel a bit of what the comrade wrote about the daily struggles we experience in my country, even within the party, but it is something we can overcome as we understand how we are also influenced by the church and other institutions.
I avoid being too generalist and overly essentialist in what I say and think, but avoiding this is an effort that goes against everything that our society and capitalism has treated as the truth or the right way to think.

Why was all the data after July 30th lost? Can anything be done to retrieve it? A lot of threads were deleted.

>>35262
I never systematically hoarded content but I tend to save most things I see. I think we need a thread to request and share our lost OC etc.

In the meantime here's a very recent scan I made. The only place it was posted was /edu/ maybe a week or two before the server collapsed.

>>35224
Yes, it can be yours for less than €20.

thanks for your hard work getting the site back up. I wish this didn't happen, i do love this place and i dont want it gone. That being said, this is really shit man. How could you not have any back ups? maybe i know nothing bout tech but fuck man this seems so basic.

>>35257
We've not given up hope on (ADMIN IN ABSENTIA) completely, and we've done back-end restoration of files in the past (though it is a bitch), so a lot of the older threads on slower boards (think /hobby/) still have a shot at restoration. For now though, we're just accepting the reality of the situation for what it is and are moving forwards despite it.
>>1944790
Tbf the guy has an occupation which involves a lot of travel, is a very active member of their local communist party + labor union, and iirc was slated to enter a position of leadership in both. Might be busy touching too much grass. Before they did go dark they gave admin powers, cloudfare perms, etc. to other mods to keep things going day-to-day in their absence, so it's not like they completely fucked off unplanned. The server failing as it did was just really bad, and they probably didn't expect to be so busy as to not be around to handle these kinds of issues.

>>35283
mate, if you lose contact with a bloke for a couple of months then just cut the creds and migrate to a new vps. you wouldn't do this kind of shit on the job would you? if he shows back up you can just provision new ones. get on a payment platform that forces public disclosure of funds, if you cunts believe in workers organizing you should be able to create enough of a management structure to not have to rely on a vps rented by an absentee.

>>35284
That involves someone using their legal name and own funds to buy a service for a website, then moving everything over to a new server over, making sure everything is set up properly, and all the rest of the stuff we are currently doing now. We could charitably be described as "down on manpower", and doing all of the work involved (including doing background work like checking the legal jurisdictions in places where we might rent the server to make sure there aren't anti-communist laws which would fuck up everything) is not trivial. We're putting down the work in trying to cover our bases just on moderation and fixing up the piece of shit code that is lainchan to begin with, having contingencies for everything failing in spectacular ways is just not realistic for what we got in us. We'll get plenty of critics, and few volunteers, for this fact.

"politicians serve the people" tier retardation
in practice this isn't real, how are the users of the site benefiting for being banned for dumb shit, being flooded with anti-anti-imperialist horseshit by one of the mods and being redirected to a pedo den once the site goes down due to janny incompetence?

>>35290
Yea bro the mods, serving the users of the website.
big lmao. thanks.
>Do you think mods do this for profit?
They do it for a perceived social cache in their internet pretend communities and the right to be smug, power-hungry cocks to everyone on the site without repercussion.
Legitimately, are you new?

>>35287
Simple - mods generally tend to come and go quickly and new generations of mods implement new ideas of site administration. I was admitted as a detractor of sorts at the time and still had my place, and as turnover came and older mods went, new visions got implemented, as has happened many-a-time. Of course the vainglorious tend to self-purge themselves because of ill-temperament. Moderation of a site (which is effective, anyways) depends more on people willing to be somewhere between civil service and bureaucrat for no real gain except to help facilitate a community they enjoy, usually with enough opinion about the community and where they want it to go to have passion for it, but have enough people skills and diplomatic ability to mediate that vision with others. Needless to say its not a remarkably common set of skills on chan-formats in general. There have been plenty of attempts of other "leftypols" with mods which did not have this temperament which inevitably drove off their users and died with irrelevancy, leaving us as the remainder.

>>35293
How do you apply and how do you prevent hostile /pol/ takeover?

>>35294
We have semi-regular recruitment threads, but we'll also admit people who volunteer on a case-by-case basis every now and again.

Generally, we use post IP histories to make sure that the user in question is actually a /leftypol/ user, but ofc for people like TOR users this isn't applicable. After that we have an interview process where we will test their leftist credentials, usually over the span of 3 days of informal conversation. After that there will be internal discussion over our findings and a vote to bring them in - if they pass, they will become a janny (which is less powerful than a mod, in our setup) which does not have all of the functions of a mod yet - lacking things like seeing IPs or being able to rangeban and whatnot. After they have done their work as a janny for a while and prove they are trustworthy, at that point they get promoted to being a mod proper, with all the powers contained therein, including vooting powers over issues of the site.

>>35293
>There have been plenty of attempts of other "leftypols" with mods which did not have this temperament which inevitably drove off their users and died with irrelevancy, leaving us as the remainder.

>"politicians serve the people" tier retardation
wtf do you think jannies get in the bargain? juicy kickbacks from corruption and social status?

>>35297
I wouldn't want for there to be a real possibility of /leftypol/ getting taken down and maybe blacklisted for using something like a fake name on the paperwork, personally. It is something we've discussed before.

As for the donations - it is something we've long considered, though just as-is right now paying for the server itself isn't a pressing concern. The issue with donations mostly comes from legal status of leftypol as an entity, which comes back around to something like registering leftypol as an LLC, which means real names and whatnot on the documentation. The easiest way, ironically, would to be to start selling Alunya fumos or some shit to raise funds. It's easier (and possible to do largely anonymous) to put a product to market for money than it is to take charity donations to continue a communist website - which is very fucking funny, all things considered.

>>35298
>real possibility of /leftypol/ getting taken down
if you're using fake names and have actual backups, its doesnt sound that much of a concern really, just rehost it. Who could even go check on it and put us in trouble. Unless some mass shooter posted his manifesto here the risk doesnt seem very high (and even then, what are the actual legal risks?)

>blacklisted

does that actually happen? and you can just switch provider
although I understand the unwillingness to "break the law" (and if you ever did it, obviously dont post it publicly), the legal consequences seems minimal, the risk is mostly you dont get legal recourses if there are problems, but we have problems now and no recourse at all

>It's easier (and possible to do largely anonymous) to put a product to market for money than it is to take charity donations to continue a communist website

Doesn't make sense.
They wouldn't black bag him, he'd be out on bail by now.
If they turned him compliant he would have came back as if nothing had happened and cops would have gotten whatever they were looking for (nothing valuable here anyway, complete waste of time).
I mean, the Frog cops love to try to fuck people for anything digital though, it's something they put a lot of money in to the last two decades. Not actually sure they put a dent in the actual real cybercrime but it gave them a lot of resources to use, in practicality, on activists, comrades, fellow travellers, etc.

lol at the newfags who don't know about Alunya's origins or the lolicom flag from the 8chan days

honestly screeching about /GET/ should be removed on sight. it's a different site, and /GET/ has made it clearly many times in the past they prefer minimal relations with /leftypol/

>>1945978
under your retarded protocol it'd effectively ban Alunya depictions you personally don't like
also your rewrite isn't any better (three whole attempts)

think before posting man

>>1945939
/leftypol/ bans it for various reasons, including legal ones, a history of people trying to sneak past those rules in the past, and massive derailment potential related to the topic. GETchan is a different site and has different rules. Lots of socialist sites/communities don't allow NSFW content at all, an that's their prerogative.
>What I'm glad for is that on leftypol the very suggestion of MAP advocacy results in a ban
Advocating for changing the site rules about this content is against the rules (since it's been used so much to derail in the past). Advocating for, say, de-stigmatizing pedophilia or social policy of putting """MAPs""" in therapy and allowing them drawn pictures that don't involve IRL child abuse is not against the rules as far as I can tell.

>>1945954

Rules for posting on a website don't constitute a stance on what is or is not acceptable in a universal sense.

>>35334
>granted referring to them was an absolutely retarded move, well intended or not
This is fair. If they don't want to be linked on the sidebar they shouldn't be.
>lol at the newfags who don't know about Alunya's origins
How many people don't know the origins of spurdo and its variants like gondola and ameriga bear? Obviously the origins are irrelevant to most people, so this point doesn't really matter to the discussion.

>>1945981
>Advocating for, say, de-stigmatizing pedophilia or social policy of putting """MAPs""" in therapy and allowing them drawn pictures that don't involve IRL child abuse is not against the rules as far as I can tell.
As far as I can tell, pedoshits and their advocates get banned no questions asked. As they should be.
>Rules for posting on a website don't constitute a stance on what is or is not acceptable
It shows an inherent conflict of interests between the two sites, so the conclusion is to simply not have leftypol affiliate, link and promote a site of pedo advocates at all.

i'm a wrecker for not wanting marxism to be associated with pedophilia?
right, ok
what about the jannies literally wrecking the website into going offline though? or sending people to a pedophile den as a replacement?

zankaria is literally breaking the website with his chatgpt ass code while at the same time he's spamming anti-anti-imperialism using his moffin persona on the main board
is this not wrecking?

>>35358
You can stop spamming the site, 'child porn' is illegal photographs of children, whereas lolicon is drawings, there's the distinction for you.

also mod breaking global site rule #1

>>35361
So animated child porn isn't child porn?

>>35365
the more refined pedo thinks it's fine to feed an attraction to children so long as said children are drawings. this is totally fine because reasons and won't have any effect on society because it just won't, ok?

>>35366
The pedo hysteric downplays the harm of child sex abuse and violating the privacy of victims (which is what CSAM involves and why it's such a serious crime) by equivocating it with drawings.
>effect on society
People don't become pedophiles because they saw a drawing.

>>35368
which of the following do you think tends to attenuate pedophilic behavior:
>engaging with sexual content involving minors
>desisting from engaging with sexual content involving minors
like I wonder if you'd argue the same way about other content involving fantasizing about heinous acts
>it's just rape fantasy porn, it has no connection with actual rapes nor encourages rapist behavior
>it's just fascist propaganda, it doesn't actually depict fascist crimes

>>35368
>drawings
drawings of what? what are you talking about?
you’re a pedophile btw

>>35368
The moron dislikes loli/csam because it makes him uncomfortable, not because of the nature of csam or loli. Really striking IMO. Which also reveals the morality and liberal ideology of the person. CSAM is bad because attraction to kids is wrong, not because of the damage it can cause kids. Fucking crazy lol.

>>35337
the point was that there is no separation between /leftypol/ and "8chan degeneracy", nor /leftypol/ culture and /GET/ culture. they are intertwined, and the cessation of one would be the cessation of the other

Does anyone know when the gitea repo is coming back?

>>35373

When they give me the keys to the server…

Imagine being in here unironically in 2024 saying 'no my pedo drawings are not pedo because it's just a drawing'.
Jesus fucking christ you are fully grown adults. You are old enough to have children, you have small cousins, nieces and nephews and so on.
Not wanting to be directly affiliated with a place that celebrates that shit like was done during the outage is 100% not unreasonable, no matter how much the deranged d1scord freaks ITT wanto make it seem so.
So fucked.

>>35378
Imagine being unable to make a single post without being hysterical and pedojacketing people because they aren't clutching the same pearls as you. GETchan allowing that content is not the only thing about the site. They even put it behind a filter that you have to actively disable. You are going out of your way to be offended by this stuff.

>>35382
>how dare you pedojacket someone lusting after children


can you at least yoink the thumbnails from the archived catalog.html pages

>>35383
lusting after children isn't wrong, doing stuff to children or involving oneself with actual CSAM is.

>>35412
What do you think happens to people who got molested? You realize that the actual trauma of the thing you claim to hate is such a bad thing because it infects the victim's mind with horrible recreations of the experience, right? For some people, they are able to get the trauma sorted out, but for a lot they don't. And a big part of that is because child sex abuse victims are frequently paranoid that they are or will be viewed as pedophiles for seeking treatment for the trauma (and usually this is a justified fear). Most pedophiles were abused themselves, but being abused doesn't automatically make you one. That means that intervention is possible to stop people becoming pedophiles. You are literally being part of the problem. The taboo on pedos and pedo hunting crusade is a factor in making people more likely to become pedos in the first place.

And this is to say nothing of how pedophilia is constantly being used as a label to attack any group someone doesn't like, from LGBT people to teachers to socialists.

>>35419
based

first of all, to extend about the last part, pedo hysteria comes from the burgueoise victorian morality scandalized about child prostitution among the lower class in the overcrowded slums around industrial districts in early capitalism (that they themselves were clients of), after then they realized child labor was also not okay lol, and second, it has been a weapon of the reaction for more than a century now to demonize oponents

>>35419

>lust repressing drugs don't erase your affective, romantic feels for children and you still dream to have a child girlfriend so you are now more depressed
>now you can't see loli

yeah no I'm better off watching loli content as an escape valvle, and fuck you very much.
I have little relatives and they all love me and I think at least in my opinion I never done something weird to them all this years because I have my "evil" lust managed with loli.

>>35422
to be fair with you on that one I know pedos, lolicons and antis from each possible axis of the political expectrum with different ideas about how we should treat lolicon and pedos in general, lol

>>35424
that's very bannable yes and had been used as an attack by the rightwing for decades by now.

but pedo activism did exist from the 50s and died with its last breaths at the 80s and it tryed to asociate with and had some support from other branches of the sexual liberation movement in general until time went on, science studied more and concluded of the harmful effects of child sexual activity with adults, the consent question, etc, and with bad optics and being an easy target quickly and surely lost sympathy from everyone.

sorry but my cousin has like 3 jobs and her piece of shit husband ran away to other country leaving her with debts from his fuck ups, and I'm going to keep helping her rise my niece and nephew because childcare is harder than you may ever think and I love them very much…
we are not wealthy so I'm all that they have, do cook your own food even, not speak of cooking for two children and making it in a way they can enjoy while eating healthy you lazy rich kid? have you ever had to wash peed pijamas and sheets every day? my niece has that problem.
Have you ever played with your kids or do you just let them be mindwashed by facebook, videogames and tiktok shit because it easier than taking them to the park or the museum or anything??
Have you ever enjoyed their laugh, or when they hug you, or when she climbs over you to watch tv because she feels safer in your arms!?
have your little niece ever brought breakfast to bed all by herself the day you were dead tired by a night of hard work on saturday because she loves you??
do you have a nephew with autism that you run races with and make puzzles together and you help get better at social skills, and loves you to death too?? of have you been raised by your nanny you piece of shit?

have you ever feel the shame guilt and conflict of being a fucking pervert despite all, that no matter what you do your body will react, well, it's just that, your mind and soul control your body not the other way around! And if I can get help from looking at a drawing and being allowed to have fucking fantasies I will!

kill my self? what happens to my cousin that I love dearly too and nephews then? faggot, I'm a flawed man is true, but I am not an evil man…you on the other hand petit burgueoise piece of shit feel entitled enough to send me to kill my self?

You have just messed with me and my fammily and luckily this is fucking internet, because if we were speaking in a room face to face I would destroy your face with a hammer right fucking now.

I have sent pieces of shit like you to the ICU for far less a threat. And only reason I wouldn't do it, it's because I can't allow myself to fuck up because they need me.

Do you think I'm not ashamed of myself? that I don't feel guilt? I would have ended my life ages ago if not because I feel needed…god I hope something very bad happens to you as soon as possible, fuck you.

>>35450
it is illegal in many jurisdictions including where the site is hosted. this is an international site and many countries have very strict laws for possession. your hypothetical about therapeutic value don't really override the fact that this is a site for discussing political activism and posting such content puts the users at risk. i really dont want to see some user getting arrested and having to try to explain to some illiterate boomer judge the difference between a thumbnail and how it doesn't really count then getting hit with 20 years in jail and somehow anti-zionism getting associated with pedos. if you live somewhere where its okay just keep it to yourself its really not relevant and trying to normalize it looks like you are actively trying to get people in trouble

>>35454

NTA but the content is and always has been banned here. The argument ITT has been about removing the external link to GETchan where they allow the content.

>>35459

certainly seems like that mod thinks its okay by making the distinction. and its not the first time that opinion has been expressed by someone with a mod tag. maybe the rules should be updated to be more clear and/or that mod should be permabanned according to rule 1

Nobody's challenging that rule. We're saying that the link to GETchan isn't being removed.

>>35451
>>35454

I know, very fair points tbh. But 1st isn't that responsibility of the user who uploads or downloads, watch that content? and 2nd to what point are they enforcing it in your jurisdiction?
funny thing that you point it out because

>I actually live in a country in which possesion, production or sale/distribution of ANY pornography is illegal under obscenity laws, in my case you can face from 3 months to 1 year in prison

<The current Law no. 62 of the criminal code (Art. 303, subsection C), penalizes with a penalty of deprivation of liberty ranging from three months to one year, or a fine of 100 to 300 installments to he who “produces or circulates publications, prints, film tapes or tape, recordings, photographs or other objects that are obscene, with a tendency to pervert and degrade customs.

<has it stopped internet to flood our citizens with porn in the country or perverts from being perverts and storing porn since before, now or ever?

nope ever, people produced or smuggled porn lol

<has it stopped the situation about actual rape, women rights and stuff like that or now it has worsenend?

to my knowledge no effects before or after lol

<do I break national and international law every day?

yes and yes, and if you care about stupid laws you are not fit for the revolution or organizing anything

worldwide, pigs and glowies even, generally have enough shit to deal with and dissidents to crush with varied limited budgets to do so, to care about some case that wil be laughed at court…to not prosper so they can't even blackmail the rare poor fool that even get reported for bulshit like this.

In my country? they would laugh at your face, they would laugh at mine, and say they have organized terrorists to catch, drug dealers, corrupt beurocrats, actual people (and child) trafickers, etc…

You know what? there is, at a very, very unreliable underrepresented estimate, 400 millions of us globally, 1 for every 20 humans alive!, you not only want to ban, and have banned shit like lolicon, faggots like >>35449 have no problem with genocide, we found ourselves with more than enough reason to organize and fucking defend ourselves and fight back, you on the other hand aren't hunted down…and ostracized

And that numbers it's not taking into account the people that prefer older teens and are regarded as pedo as well…if I organize enough of us, we could wreak some serious havoc. Only reason it doesn't happen it's because many have bought your moral crusade guilt trip. Among such numbers how many do you think can I convince to make an uprising against censorship?

other minorities have more than enough reason to support, because were will you stop? with us? whith furries? BDSM enthusiasts? with LGTBQs? Everyone like you is a real danger to humanity and should be stopped no matter the cost!

Make Lolicon legal as it ever should!

I'm tired of playing this theater now, so I will write a last time. Whatever you do or think about me or lolicon I don't care in the end, I am going to still be singing the internationale and fighting beside you, like always. We can solve every human issue one by one once we have erradicated exploitation of man by man. That's the last thing I will say that matters to me or this place.

See how no one described therapy? that's because they know or looked into how things actually work even for those who have done nothing trying to do the right thing.

That's crap and does not help anyone.

I just hope communism is a world were I, that was born like this can find tolerance, understanding, and cured or helped at the very least without mistreating me, not censored, hated or exterminated. I chose to live by that last hope not for me but for the children of the future. A last hope in this shit show of a world, if it's not then I guess nothing matters.

If you don't hold this beliefs you can't be a socialist, a true revolutionary can't be guided just by the hate of evil, an unfair system and the immoral class in power, very important. But one must not forget one's love for humanity and willingness to solve human problems and suffering, if you lack that you will lose your way in the end. Humanity is not some idealized proletariat, humanity is people like you, and people like me, and criminals, prostitutes, drug addicts, disabled, diseased, resentful, violent, righteous, profane, peaceful, whatever. If you will just act like everyone before you and put under the rug what you don't want to see, you are likely to repeat the same mistakes everyone in history did. When you want to judge a person or a society, see how it treats what it hates, fears or misunderstands the most…

I've been here for some time and its the first time I decided to engage in such topic, and I will continue to lurk here nevertheless. I don't care about any answer after this, everything anyone says from this point on is just blind prejudice, hate or nonsense.
To anyone that answers like that I just really hope you DON'T EVER have a son or a daughter, or any loved one aflicted by this shit, because it's a life of unauthenticity, self hatred and pain, and because to you it will hurt twice, and I tell you this from experience.

Sorru but this isn't My Little Pony magick of friendship, the revolution isn't about christianizing the horizon of morality. The revolutionary urge foremostly is mythical towards its object, which swings through the dialectical spectrum ( proletariat vs bourgeouise ) , there's only a proletarian revolution when there's bourgeouise, as both defining each other.
No abstract terms like 'love for humanity' needed.

Sergei Nechaev has a nice quote bout it
https://www.marxists.org/subject/anarchism/nechayev/catechism.htm
<The revolutionary despises public opinion. He despises and hates the existing social morality in all its manifestations. For him, morality is everything which contributes to the triumph of the revolution. Immoral and criminal is everything that stands in its way.
