Are they too dumb to uncheck the "show NSFW" button in settings? It was the same in Reddit idk. Can't do much about Communism, but at least the Lenin porn is blocked.

I wish there was a "Show Communism" switch too

You mean communism? I studied it. A beautiful theory. Sadly it doesn’t work

Reddit has NSFW off by default on new accounts.

Doesn't Lemmy also do this? On the few accounts I have across instances I've had to explicitly check the "Show NSFW" box when I create my account.

Wait. Where is this Lenin porn you speak of?

... in Warsaw.

For people who didn't watch way too many Zizek talks: Zizek used this joke to illustrate a point. As it goes, I completely forgot the point, but memorized the joke. Probably because I'm a pervert. Here goes: In an exhibition in Moscow, there's a painting with the title "Lenin in Warsaw" depicting a woman who looks suspiciously like Nadezhda Krupskaya, Lenin's wife, screwing what appears to be a student. A confused visitor asks the guide standing beneath the painting: "But where's Lenin?" The guide, of course, answers: "Lenin is in Warsaw."

I don't really have much problem with communism posts or comment, but too many communists/socialists are praising Lenin or Stalin which is just fucking stupid on so many levels.
