For all we know it's hosted in an old laptop in someone's basement right?

Sounds like a good time

Don't join the largest instances then. Lemmy.world is over loaded and mastodon.social is historically overloaded.

I think technically this is a message from Mastodon that was federated here. @communism is in the message because that's how you need to reference the community in order for it to be federated? I've seen posts like this on other parts of Lemmy and it's weird.

I've never understood how someone could watch almost 60 years of Star Trek, in some cases multiple times, and not pick up on the clearly leftist themes within the show. Those people are out there though! When Discovery was first airing you'd see these people crawl out of the floorboards to piss and moan about the black lead character, or the gay characters, like Trek wasn't trying to teach you inclusivity, empathy, and anti-capitalist/anti-imperialist ideals this whole time.

The first season is hard to watch. The second season they dial back the weird humor for a more serious tone with some situational comedy. It's a good season with some real dramatic episodes sprinkled in. The third season was picked up by Hulu. The budget is huge for that season, VFX, costuming, sets and make-up are massively improved. And the episodes are an hour long. This season is really good so far. Really powerful episodes. Probably the best time travel mishap episode of any sci-fi I've seen.

So like any Trek show, it gets better with time. I'd give it a shot!

I haven't watched it yet but that's good to hear! I had to laugh when The Orville had to explain how their society works and they said "None of this was possible until we moved beyond the need to buy and sell things."

Yes it's called a post-scarcity economy. I haven't finished season 3 but I hear at the end of season 3 they have a much better explanation about how Earth progressed into their federation like organization. I think they do stop short of calling it socialism though.

I agree with the symbolism but I've never seen a cog in a design that I like.

Reddit loves hating communists. Don't tell them where Bernie gets his ideas from!
