another bonus is we won't be subject to as many raids from reddit. Like how many members of Genzedong, especially when big influxes of people joined, were just trolls and bots? Hardly anyone in bad faith will find this place. If a raid were conducted from this platform some redditor can't just click on their user profile and trace them back to here easily
I'm pretty ambivalent to Genzedong getting quarantined, everyone saw it coming with how the subreddit painted a target on its back and it was just a matter of when
I feel like that gave some people kind of a destructive attitude as if the ship going down meant they had permission to bring buckets and help fill the boat with water. Constant comments of wishing for the death of normal Americans are a bit too far in my opinion. I'm by no means a social person (check my pfp), but someone being anti-social is counterintuitive to being a socialist. I won't deny those could have been bad actors as that has happened before, but there were quite a few people just being fully misanthropic.
I prefer lemmygrad so if more people start using it that is great. It is such a bonus to not only be off of Reddit but also to have separate communities under the same banner.
Now a question has this platform become easier to use on mobile in the last year, I imagine that is a huge restriction to how much engagement this place can get?
I saw another headline like "When is the time to tell tenants to leave" or something as if the U.S should just wait then evict everyone at once.

Manolo is an apolitical man who after witnessing fascism right in front of him has to decide whether to ignore it or fight for what's right.

Weeb Revolution Introduction
Hi all, Weeb Revolution is trying to bring Marxism-Leninism and Mao Zedong Thought directly to anime fans. This is worth doing since hobbies like anime and video games have become pipelines to the right and the best way to counteract that is in my opinion real leftist content (Not the demsucc stuff either). I just like anime too, and I hope the channel's content is entertaining to comrades
If you're new to anime here is a video on Leftist Anime Recommendations - Best Introductions to Anime
Also my classic video on Top Ten Communist Waifus
The channel recently went through some re-branding; it used to be called Shonen Ronin, which is a story of its own. However, now that the shonen creators left, I definitely want to take the channel more in the political direction. It should be quite the journey and I'll enjoy every comment of flabbergasted people who can't wrap their head around a communist making anime videos.
There are other communities for anime on lemmy but do feel free to just post anything anime related, ask questions, make suggestions or share memes.

Deca-Dence and Capitalist Realism
someone will be so mad at the conclusions I made at the end that were pro actual existing socialism, I just know it.
Don't Get Into Fate (For Your Safety)
Zolo's first video for Weeb Revolution on the absurd complexity of the fate series and how to get into it. I think down the line we'll analyze Fate from a leftist perspective because most people in weeb revolution are hardcore fate fans, but for now enjoy this meme xd
Without the Communist Party, There Would be No New Donghua
With the rise of the new cold war and attacks on Socialist China, Weeb Revolution is embracing Dengist theory more than ever. It will be a process to transition from anime to videos about donghua, but within five years the channel could very well be on Bilibili with Mandarin subtitles and guest appearances with Xi Jinping to talk about his favorite cartoons. I genuinely believe within this decade donghua will become a much larger industry than the Japanese anime industry and have a much larger audience at least at home. There is maybe a handful of people even discussing Chinese animation on YouTube right now, so I'd like to share the best ones with as many people as possible.
The first Donghua Video on the channel isn't aiming to be anything more than just a review. However the next donghua video has the WIP title "If American Kids saw this movie they wouldn't hate China" as I believe a lot of the people salivating for war with China simply know nothing about China other than stereotypes picked up from Kung Fu Panda. Or generally the history of how Hollywood has depicted Asian people.
In the meantime I'll leave everyone here with perhaps the best communist Donghua available to watch right now called Year Hare. I personally need to finish this show still but there is no other comedy with this much historical understanding of the PRC
Animarchy's Tribute to Kyoto Animation - One Year On
Animarchy- "Hey guys, I didn't make a tribute video at the time. Honestly my Haruhi video was basically my way of saying it.
It has been one year since that horrible day. But the reason I made this video is to celebrate this studio. For despite the odds, despite all that's happened. Even this year with COVID-19 ruining their screening schedule of the Violet Evergarden movie. They are rebuilding, and standing strong.
I love Kyoto Animation, they are responsible for Violet Evergarden and Haruhi, my two no-1 anime of all time. They also made Hyouka, Nichijou and Dragon Maid. Lucky Star and K-On!
And to top it off. As someone who fights hard for workers rights. They are the only studio to pay its workers a salary and keep a reasonable schedule for all concerned. And have the highest hiring rate of female artists in the anime world.
They are symbolic of everything that I love this medium for. And I want to celebrate them properly."
Latest Video Reviewing Japan Sinks 2020. The show says Trans Rights and F*** Ultranationalism
Pretty off the cuff review I made of the new Netflix show, Japan Sinks. Despite being a disaster of a show, it was very enjoyable and had a strong leftist message
Top Ten Communist Waifus
The anime community could use more leftist propaganda like this. My next idea in this style is top ten soviet waifus. I have ideas for the list already but suggestions would be helpful to complete it fully
