When you're in the process of applying for a job, and your prospective employer wants to know whether you're passionate about the work and how you're going to make/save them money or improve their bureaucratic standing, or both, is that analogous to a king requiring your love and your promise to battle on his behalf?

Hello everyone,
the recent behavior of Reddit as a company has finally prompted me to give up the platform. While looking for alternatives, I saw the problems of leftist communities on Reddit reflected in those as well. Since you are here I don't have to talk about the r/GenZedong crowd gathering in lemmygrad. Other communities on Lemmy have not really fit my taste in terms of actual socialist orientation either. I know that there is Hexbear.net and that it is a bit better in that regard. But still it seems to tolerate such reactionaries and is not federated with the rest of lemmy.
As such, I wanted to try setting up an alternative batch of communities created in the same spirit (including this one):
For discussion between communists
For the discussion and explanation of socialist principles
For the discussion and explanation of communist principles
For sharing leftist Memes between leftists
For sharing communist Memes between communists
For the constructive and good-faith discussion of the merits, differences and similarities between Anarchism and Marxism
Please feel free to discuss suggestions and your general opinion/attitude on this below.
