Controversial sort
this one sounds like an awful idea ngl
There isn’t any discussion on political theory
there;s currently an ongoing bell hooks reading group, we just finished the wretched of the earth reading group, the daily megathread comes with a list of recomended works of anarchist and marxist theory, there are pretty frequent requests in the askchapo comm for works of theory on specific topics, the matrix room has its own pretty active theory discussion page, one of the recurring site taglines is a command telling the reader to read theory with a link to where to see it, and if you spend anytime at all active on the site someone will yell at you to read Settlers (ive actually seen people recomend this one so much that i actually know the url from the top of my head), The Jakarta Method, Blackshirts and Reds or Trans Liberation: Beyond Pink and Blue
while refreshing the page for an example of the tagline’s telling the reader to go read theory coming up i saw this that you might find funny
ok, here are some actual ones telling the reader to read theory:

I’ve always found emoji haters to just be weird crotchety redditors in general, I’ve looped around from being one as a kid to like coming to appreciate them nowadays, also custom emojis are cool AF and I can’t wait until Lemmy starts to fix the problem with Lemmy emojis getting shown massively to users from other instances so I don’t have to keep a mental checklist of which emojis get mega sized to non Hb users
It looks like this on my end:
lemmy users when they see us using all our custom emojis:
“old and out of touch with the kids”
“new emojis all the time and I have no idea what any of them mean”
joins hexbear, the instance with literally 2,000 custom emojis a load of which relate back to in jokes from years ago that the average outsider has no way of parsing
If you have the black background for Lemmy on then the emoji looks like a red hand jerking a phantom dick
Damn, redditors really are trying to bring every single dumbass aspect of Reddit over to Lemmy too (targeted at the people who made this decision for the app, not you btw)
Two slurs that my instance won’t actually let me write down, followed up by the guy threatening to attack me
Segregation being a bad thing
alcohol, im an alcoholic
Very weird game of telephone happening on Lemmy rn where apparently the longest running queer instance on Lemmy is being presented as full as ‘conservative sleeper agents pretending to be queer to mock ‘real’ queer people’
Assumed it was a TERF subreddit because of the name, but then I went to check it out and it’s just a dumb 'Reddit-core’ism like calling table salt sodium chloride and it’s just like a general discussion place for women.
Incredibly sus to be comparing a community focused on sharing vids of women being beaten and people dying to women just discussing life and their relationships.
Yeah, like whatever, get rid of them too. But like why did you feel the need to “what about” to talking about misandrists in response to someone criticising the amount of violent misogyny present on the early internet?
A homeless person is without the mental structure to build something lasting, or else they would not be homeless or would identify differently, e.g. as a traveler.

Yeah I know a guy irl who’s training to be a lawyer and he says that in companies he’s been at its apparently the norm to work roughly 300 hours or so a month
Ngl, I kind of hope that pronouns don’t become mandatory on Lemmy, bcs rn it functions as a way to just immediately see who isn’t a bigot and probably has good opinions
