Socialism

Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.


Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.


This community's icon was made by Aaron Schneider, under the CC-BY-NC-SA 4.0 license.

Thought this was pretty interesting and entertaining. Made me dream for a while about what living in a society with a mature library economy would be like. Figured I'd share and try to get a discussion going. Enjoy!

As a librarian who has done some of the exploratory research into starting a local asset-sharing collective, LendEngine is useful, intuitive, and pretty cheap. I have not found anything FOSS that does the equivalent, but any programmers that want to help the movement, have at it.

That sounds like a great project to work on, I’ll look into it.

Fuck yeah. Thanks, comrade.
