Leftism
Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!
Rules:
- Absolutely no fascism, right wing extremism, genocide denial, etc.
- Unconditional support of authoritarians will not be tolerated
- Good faith discussion about ideologies is encouraged, but no sectarianism
- No brocialism/sexism
- No ableism
- No TERFs/ anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric
- No racism
- No trolling
- No insults, dunking, or personal attacks
- No posting of misinformation, disinformation, or fake news
- Mods have final say
Posting Expectations:
- Comics/memes/shitposts/propaganda are only allowed on weekends
- Try to avoid liberalism unless discussing electoral politics. Even then, try to focus on tactical agreement towards leftist goals
- Only one meta post seeking consensus per person per day
- Posts about a particular ideology are ok, but remember the rules above
- Remember that there is no “right way” to implement leftist theory. This rule does not prevent academic criticism.
- Try to avoid extremely sensitive topics unless approaching them with appropriate care for intersectionality. Use your best judgement, and be prepared to provide respectable sources when having these discussions. Wikipedia is not an acceptable source in these cases.
- Post titles must be meaningful and relevant, except on weekends

Meh. Their cookies suck imo. Over priced and the boxes are tiny. The lemon are decent and the chocolate mint are decent too the rest can be tossed into the ocean.
I've never seen someone so upset at cookies.
Who is upset? I just stated an observation. Calm your tits fella.
I tried selling boy scout popcorn and that shit was a pain in the ass. It was like $10 for some microwave popcorn or something. Wasn't even good. Honestly, if you see these poor guys, donate money directly to them if you don't want to try the shit popcorn. (Thank you to the Eagle Scout Vons employee who donated $50 to Troop 1238!)
Or don't donate to the Boy Scouts at all since they don't accept trans scouts and don't accept LGBT+ leaders.
They changed that policy a few years ago. They are behind the times but making changes due to social pressure
Pretty sure the social pressure was the Mormon church.
For those that don't know Scouts BSA, their new name, accepts girls too.
Yeah my troop (1238) have girls in it too (1238G). We were the first ones in our area to implement this as soon as the rules allowed us to do so.
Honestly, I have never experienced anything but good things in scouting. It very well could be regional, maybe in Texas or something they could be really racist and anti lgbt. It's pretty much dependent upon which people decide to volunteer their time and contribute to making a good troop.
Each troop is pretty self contained, for the most part. The one my son and I are involved with is very open. I was hesitant to let him join when he wanted because of all the issues in the past with the organization but now I'm his den leader with 6 other kids and an assistant leader.
Yeah one troop could be very progressive and nice but the troop over in the next park might be very conservative and close minded. It's pretty self-contained like you said.
