I’d just caution that a lot of the Fediverse is heavily Marxist-Leninist. If that’s for you, go for it.

    I'd say it's far more generally leftist than Marxist-Leninist, although there are a lot of card-carrying Marxists and communists around. I just mute the most exasperating of the lot who post thirst traps of Castro and gas up BRICS.

      Honestly, the economic tools are just that, it’s the cultural and political baggage they carry which make them a problem.

      That said, whenever someone says “left”, I like to make the distinction between rational progressive, radical progressive, or left libertarian. There are few rational progressives on the Fediverse, at least from my experience.
