  Sure but it maybe helps others to understand your sarcasm 🤗

    I would hope the emoji made it clear that “us has never been a democracy” paired with Marx Engels and Lenin would get the gears turning for some people, and anyone that already read any of that would understand the point. This is an explicitly communist instance after all.

    People are free to ask questions but unfamiliar users from other instances outside of lemmygrad and slightly less so lemmy.ml are rightfully treated with suspicion.

      😮 their post is right wing? I see me as left wingy and seem to agree with the person that answered your comment, thinking you two were talking about the same thing?

        It’s technically a democratic republic.

        This is a common right wing talking point and their comment really added nothing that I hadn’t already simplified with the comment they were replying to, which is a common right wing response to criticizing the US as not truly being democratic despite its claims.
