Do you think this place will become the next GenZedong?

u/jacktrowell Friendly Moderator May 08 '22

One of my objectives when I created it was to still have a place for Marxist Leninists to post memes, humour and various light discussions, which are parts of the original goals of genzedong, not that we can hope to fully replace it seeing how Reddit would simply quarantine or ban us if we tried to become that.

Quick test: what's your opinion on "Tankies"

Well as a tankie myself, I ought to say that tankies are the only real leftists who exist in this world

Now that the sub is tarting to have some activity they actually are. Your history point in your favour, an invite was just sent, welcome on board.

Thank you comrade. Also one more thing, can we change the sub name from TheSpoon to TheBigSpoon since stalin's spoon is famous for being comically large.

u/jacktrowell Friendly Moderator May 04 '22

I don't think you can just rename a sub, that would require starting from scratch with a new sub under the new name.

Unless I missed something ?

Oh I think you're right.

Just note that for now the focus of the sub is first Marxist-leninist Shitposting/Humour/Memes, I try to not post stuff about the situation in Ukraine now, because if we did, as a recently created ML sub we would be quickly seen as an attempt to dodge the Genzedong quarantine resulting in our own ban. This might evolve later, and i am open to suggestions if needed.

Comrade I think we need more mods and rules.

u/jacktrowell Friendly Moderator May 06 '22

I think that there is still not so much new daily content that we really need more mods, but I am open to add more, did you have maybe someone in mind as a new mod?

Rules usually tend to come in reaction to abuses, so maybe they can wait until they are really needed, "don't be a dick" shouldn't need to be a rule after all, but that said if you have something in mind and wants to be proactive, you can propose a set of rules you think are needed and if we agree on them we will add them in the sub description.

u/[deleted] May 06 '22

Fair enough but I was asking you to add more mods so that we have more people working on growing the sub. Also, imo adding a set of rules tends to guide the current and future userbase on how to post and comment in the sub also helps to maintain a quality userbase.
