since lemm.ee is slated to be gone soon, does anyone know of any other instances with similar policies regarding defederation? i've always loved how i can follow communities basically wherever from here. it's why i chose here over elsewhere. i just wanna be able to curate my own feed, but most big instances seem to have all these complicated beefs that mean i'd lose access to some communities if i moved there.

If you agree with either premise, then other conclusions necessarily follow

Nah, I'm in the middle, I'm not one of those, I agree with Dialectical and Historical Idealism. (/j)

Ok, the historical part is just basic liberalism, but I'm not sure about Dialectical Idealism.

I've been reading a bit of Hegel and authors like Plekhanov's The Significance of Hegel. If liberals genuinely grasped dialectics to the level of Hegel, they'd most likely just be Marxists and drop the idealism. Hegel's thought was a specific product of his conditions and his time, to the point where looking back at him and his thought the jump to Materialism feels obvious, but Marx's advancements were quite revolutionary at the time.

Basically, there are a very small number of people who accept dialectics and follow Hegelian thought over Marxist thought, as compared to Marxism. Would be an interesting stance to take in a world after Marx.
