“What is to be done” VI Lenin.

Whatever gets him closer to a stroke.

Me too. Join a lefty instance so you can choose when you deal with .worlds reddit-lite crap and not be force fed it.

I’m willing to take the bait, but first re-read the meme and tell me what you missed?

They did not set any conditions on his return. Trump will just ignore the order and claim to be “working on it”

Uh, No. the PRC is far more poised to take over the role of international leader than the EU are. Not necessarily a bad thing, I would argue, but I really don’t think the EU could get itself in line to be world police/masters quicker than the PRC

Dude. I fucking live here. I wanted to watch the hegemony decay, we’ve been responsible for some absolute nightmares. I did not want to life through shitting ourselves like a sun-setting dementia patient.

Yet here we are.

Problem is that I don’t know what to do with it. I have young kids, so adventure time is out of the question (though I’d be lying if the intrusive thoughts weren’t there). It just feels trying, knowing there is a fight that needs to happen but not how.

That’s being kind. I was thinking, hourly contractor, 40 hr minimum, salary at triple with potential for OT.

If you can’t enforce it, it’s not a law.

Fuck it. I’ll volunteer western NY to just become part of Ontario. We don’t even need to be our own province.

The neo Nazis think he was, and that was his audience. That’s enough for me.

Uh. The launch happened yesterday per space.com. I agree with shitting on muskrat and oligarchy, but they do enough that we can still be factually accurate about it.

2237 UTC or 1637 their local time on 1/16

Using DDG as my search engine, the first five articles all say the ship was lost as the main headline.

It hurts itself in its confusion.

… I have been.

Please don’t forget NY we want In too.

But when government has social programs it’s socialism. It’s in the name!

I don’t think this needs a /s, but the world doesn’t fucking make any sense.

That’s the rub,

You think government is inherently bad. I think they, and us by reflection are a product of their material conditions. Governments are a reflection of a people’s relationship with material. IE - America says “Greed is Good” Ergo we get the corporate profits over people shitfest we have now. The first step towards breaking that hold is education and organization at a community level. So that is where I focus.

I could get into a big lecture/discussion about Dialectical Materialism, the conditions requiring a vanguard, how that vanguard should be defined ect. ect. ect, how we as a people work to stop capitalist vampirism and “corporatism” (capitalism in a trench coat) - but I don’t think that would help.

Alternatively, I could pull the typical Tankie “Read theory” at this point (and I do think that is what is needed for us to continue this conversation, but I admit it’s a copout that doesn’t really give you a good starting point. Really though the first 2 pages of the manifesto would give you the gist of what I’m trying to say here.)

So, where do we go from here? - If you have a suggestion, I would be happy to talk more.

EDIT: The post above this was just saying that I was trying to “No u” him, but he called me a bad name, so the mod tagged it, just for context. To be fair, I am saying that it happened and happens in many cases, so I can see the argument, I just think it’s inaccurate.

We both do. I just don’t hide from that fact and work to minimize the damage.

Modern Russia is an imperialist shit hole. The question I was asked was about the Soviet.
