I really hope that a strong enough electoral push from the socialist wing of the party will be able to overthrow the corporate democrats and actually reign in the fascists. If not that then the only choice is between a civil war that will lead to millions of deaths with no guarantee of success or suffering under fascist dictatorship for decades until it tears itself apart (also likely to cost millions of lives).

The ballot box of the ammo box is a very grim threat.

One rule: don’t talk about Marx in this thread.

Here’s some interesting people to read on:

• Pierre Leroux
• Robert Owen
• Rosa Luxemburg
• E. P. Thompson
• Ned Ludd

I'm not sure if I fit the standard template of a Leftist but I personally believe that it is the duty of the strong to stand up for the weak.

I found myself in a situation (minor real-world radius) to consider if accessibility or union attendance was more important. Here is my response:

I don't have a perfect idea of attendance right now, but it will be a learning curve. Realistically, for the 22nd it will be about 140 people, declining from there. We can work around anomalies and if people have to sit on the floor we can accommodate.

I have to make a call. We want to maximise attendance but not exclude any groups. If 200 people in wheelchairs turn up on the 22nd, we will make sure you are heard. Likewise, I expect that any unionist is asked to give up their seat because a disabled person needs a seat they will gladly stand to help a fellow member of the union can vote.

Sometimes I fear that inclusivity is weaponized against the left. Do you think I made the right call?

economic crises not only destroy jobs or investment. They change how people understand themselves and how others understand them. A neighborhood can become stigmatized. Its inhabitants can be treated as social failures. The disappearance of stable industrial employment can become a story about supposedly failing individuals rather than a story about an economic system that has reorganized the conditions of their lives.

Right wing has a narrow focus. The left wing focuses on everything.

While the payoff for organizing happens only over a longer timeframe, the work starts now; there are no shortcuts. We can begin by organizing in the spaces where weapons are designed, marketed, created, transferred, and sold. A grassroots campaign spent months pushing a drone company with ties to both the Israeli and U.S. security state out of Brooklyn. They just won. These are successes we can replicate.

EDIT: Being neurodivergent is a giant pain in the ass.

I linked to a Reddit post instead of just making the post here, because I find making posts on Reddit easier. The post composition screen on Piefed has too many fields; it is too cluttered and “busy” for me. I feel drained when I make a post here. I have some cognitive disabilities which I think are to blame.

I didn’t realize that linking to a post on Reddit would piss everybody off. Fuck me for struggling to execute basic executive functions, I guess 🤷‍♂️

Maybe I just need to forget about posting here and go back to using my dormant Mastodon account.

I just had the great privilege of introducing this movie to two of my younger brothers!

This film (and this history) ought to be shown in every high school in Amerikkka.

All power to the people! Rest in Power Chairman Fred!

I understand that promoting the idea in right wing sphere could bring you a load of money. The same way that fire festival brought a lot of money to the guy at the top.

But when built each experiment have gone belly up and nothing could be salvaged off.

So how the right wing grifter are benefiting from building an actual freedom cities ? What I’m missing here ?

We need this, except it is a death squad for all the neo-nazi fucks online who love to glorify Pinochet and his “right-wing death squads” dropping communists out of helicopters. Give them the deaths that they want for us so badly!

It is just like a colonizer to call this a “hostile act”, smh . . . That is like punching someone in the face and then acting surprised when they say they are in pain! Quote from the article ⬇️

France slammed the law as a “hostile act” threatening bilateral efforts to heal wounds of the past. The two countries retain close cultural and economic ties but have troubled diplomatic relations.

In a solemn ceremony steeped in symbolism, 340 of 407 members of Algeria’s National Assembly voted late Wednesday to approve the law. The move came just a few weeks after African countries made a collective resolution for recognition and reparations for colonial-era crimes.

The law covers the period from the landing of King Charles X’s army on the beaches of Sidi Ferruch west of Algiers in 1830 to July 5, 1962, the date of Algeria’s official independence.

There was an article out there about how the website fightchatcontrol was impactful against the Chat Control idiocy of Denmark. Maybe we need something similar for the wealth tax. It is the biggest lever, I think, that we can use to get more equality in our societies and take power from the anti-immigrant narrative. It would also weaken those in power as they would gradually lose their wealth and make it possible for more citizens to be informed --> less control.

I truly believe that a more educated public will naturally be left-leaning and progressive.

@chatcontrol@mastodon.social would you help with this?

Odysee, bitchute, peertube, and others are overrun with right wing media and there's nearly no left-wing stuff on them. Where are all the lefties?

This is one of the two main actors from the show Hacks

The words "building spaces for autistic people" over a castle background. There are bookshelves in the corners and candles on the floor and a window in the middle. In the top right there is an autistic pride flag of 5 different colors.
