Not a USAmerican, so not exactly talking about the politics, but some issues.

The irony of blasting Biden for going against his word in his son's best interest while Trump is about to become president is the most laughable hypocrisy I've ever seen

Why not?
It's not like Trump is supported by the leftists in lemmy.

It just shows them that Biden is not very different from Trump. They have been saying that and pushing for 3rd parties or other President nominees.
Biden chooses to do this rather than set guardrails or do something to ensure that Trump is not given free reign.

This is further validation for their view.

And since Trump becoming president is a grave thing, does it mean that the Democrats are bad, because they have not done enough to stop it?

I look forward to watching y'all eat crow as Israel wipes out Palestine, the US leaves NATO, and western democracy collapses.

Palestine is being wiped out even under Biden.
US leaving Nato would be big, but we can never know how the effects would be like, right?

Wouldn't most large countries be like that?

And what value/meaning would such a 'is collapsing' statement have outside of clickbaityness?

China is lead by a communist party, aimed at transitioning their nation into the first phases of socialism by 2050, right?

In that sense, they are indeed socialist, though practically they're controlling their economy to go in that direction, so it does have captalism too, but that is not an issue as long as it is going well in the socialist direction.

And they seem to be doing well on their goals of reducing poverty, pollution etc.

So yes, they are indeed socialist because their principles and aims are.

Though, I don't think many folk are against that too. Mainly folk who are bombarded by stereotypical definitions of the left and socialism.

The folk wanting to restrict it probably don't want to respect autonomy too much.

India

Manipur seems to be still burning.
There seems to be 'understanding' with China on border issues

If you were asking about election news, the RW party, got a 3rd term and is 6 months in. They did lose seats and had to form a coalition govt. So their plans to rewrite the constitution seem to be on a hold.

Blushes back at you and passes away after a few days then?

West German flag. So that's what I drew. Only years later my parents told me that they had subsequently been summoned by the school and had to explain that it was nothing more sinister than that - a child drawing a picture of something they had seen.

That seems like a normal response.
I'm from India and if a child suddenly drew and submitted a Pak flag for an assignment, teachers would be alarmed.

What are some positives and negatives you saw in those countries?

It'd also be very cool if you could share how the education there is like?

Is this meme meant to provide awareness about revisionist evil or excesses?

Thank you for posting, OP.

I was thinking about making an account here. Saw this and made one here, to see how the instance would feel like.

I don't know if either of you have ever lived in a Marxist-Leninist country (as in lived, not just visited). I was born in one. I lived in another for five years. I've seen the before and after, first-hand.

Could you please name those countries? And share your experiences, if possible? Were they not Marxist?
