Shut the fuck up cracker, there's no "reading" which can cover such vastly different regions of the world with their own queer histories. By bringing up your orientalist ideas of the global south you're only proving your own stupidity. You clearly exist in a context in which the trans flag is common and a clear indicator to pay special regards to that user's pronouns, and instead of just apologizing and moving on you're making a mockery of yourself by trying to use your own racism to disguise your transphobia.

For someone calling queers snowflakes you sound real salty over being banned for transphobia over a year ago

What do your racist ideas of a homogenous global south with no queers have to do with this. Literally why say this.

The organizational muscles need to build a large party apparatus and connect with the community need to be built, the party isn't merely a spring that can be shot all at once but a rolling snowball that'll turn into an avalanche. There's lots of effective work that the party does nationwide, but these campaigns are a great way to get an ML party in people's faces and a way for the national level of the party to coordinate work between local branches and members and find systemic issues of organization in the party exposed by this effort

The fact that we're talking about and debating this is the point of running a candidate. The Party and it's members have to flex their organizational muscles and work towards building the scaffolding for a truly meaningful and truly revolutionary party in the future; and running a campaign to highlight for many how much of a scam the elections are has been extremely effective in the past and continues to now be extremely effective in putting the PSL at the forefront of conversation for anti-imperialist movements.

We won't win, we just have a great excuse to talk to people at a point when they're having their lack of meaningful governing power highlighted by the genocide and the election.

I say vote PSL if you want a socialist revolution in this country. While your vote won't, you know, create it or mean that Claudia and Karina will win, what it will mean is yet one more person out of tens or hundreds of thousands who says "I support a socialist option in this country".

A vote for the PSL, especially in a write-in state, is an indicator for desire for a socialist option, and a way to record this for the historical record and for existing socialist parties who are trying to decide where their potential base may be.

No! You could go and try to do something by yourself but you'd fail. We need to build the organization where we live to challenge these imperial beasts! We have to build revolutionary socialist parties, or else no one will ever be able to stand up to these monsters.

Also in South Carolina, they're endorsed and running under the South Carolina Worker's Party cause it saved some work to get on the ballot as well.

 

I just started my bot @LesbianHexbearSupercharger@hexbear.net; and it's begun subscribing to a ridiculous amount of communities. This is important because in order for a federated community to appear in the all page one member of the local instance must subscribe to that community. Some new communities I can already see are /c/UnixPorn and /c/SelfHost. Posts might take a while to populate, though, as these are new communities Hexbear hasn't yet seen

Thanks to @Char@mander.xyz for the advice in this thread.

Please note, hornyposters, that I've disabled subscribing to NSFW communities. volcel-kamala

 
 
 

Hey, Hakim's channel used to have way more videos and it seems like a lot of his old back log was deleted. I honestly really loved them, especially his DPRK video, does anyone know if there's archives available or what happened???

Has anybody else read this book? I'm about halfway through and I feel like I've been learning a lot from this. While the book is endlessly critical of the former Soviet experiment and the modern PRC without cushioning it's critiques by acknowledging that much of their problematic climate elements are due to material conditions, I find many of their critiques and ideas refreshing.

I'm a little ambivalent on their information about Nuclear Power too, I personally had assumed that Nuclear tech was brought to an incredibly safe level.

But beyond that I think some of the central thesis of the book of treating nature as a "known unknown", and needing to harness the power of hopeful utopianism while making use of the best elements of scientific socialism, I think these are swell things to adopt. The book is, on the whole, a bit lib in the ways that utopian socialists are, but I do think at the end of the day it prescribes some necessary ideas that are seriously worth engaging with.

Has anyone else read this book and have any thoughts, or ways we can adapt this critique to the struggle of socialism?

If I want to have plans to actually leave the United States in the next four years, where should I be looking? I have hereditary Lithuanian citizenship so I might be able to get myself in the Schengen Area with that alone but I'm lucky enough to have expertise in an unspecified industrial technology, with the caveat that I am transgender.

Right now my two choices seem to be European (Germany?) or somewhere in E Asia (Vietnam, PRC). How realistic are either of these options, namely Vietnam or the PRC.
