I fled Reddit due to the authoritarian mod craziness, but Lemmy.world seems infested with too much Communist craziness. I’m leftist, but communism is idiocy. Is there an instance that leans more democratic socialist but refrains from going off the deep end?

    I’m also looking for a place without edgy or crazy people.

    For me its:

    Democratic: yes

    Socialism/social net/sgaring/helping: yes

    Dictatorial: no

    Tankie: no

    Undemocratic: no

    China or CCCP/URSS worship: no

    Soviet whitewashing: no

    That’s about it.

      I think thats valid. You don’t have to accept or look at everything.

      Do you mind sharing what your ideal society looks like? I think a lot of folks share common ideas but have vastly different labels for them.

      I’ll go ahead:

      I personally want to work. It can be fun. I want to do things I’m actually good at. I want to be able to afford food and housing. I want to know that i wont starve if I become sick or disabled. I want to be able to survive when I’m too old to work regularly. I want my family to be safe no matter what.

      I think those are pretty understandable goals. I want to live in a world where this applies to as many people as possible.
