Welcome again to everybody! Make yourself at home. Sit down in that chair over there. Take off your shoes. I’m not cleaning mud off the floor. In the time-honoured tradition of our group, here is our weekly discussion thread!
We have our own Matrix homeserver at https://genzedong.org; you can make an account with any Matrix client (e.g. Element). We also have a GenZedong Matrix room (see the sidebar for more information), and there’s a general Lemmygrad Matrix room at #internationale:genzedong.org.

Short reading list for new MLs here. To find theory (and other books), you can use z-lib, libgen, or Sci-Hub (for scientific articles). If an article is unavailable, try the Wayback Machine.
The cost of living increases in southern Europe will bring about a revolutionary situation, 5 years ago we (my family) weren’t rich but we owned our own home and had some (very limited) disposable income, but now? We are on the verge of losing out house and we can barely afford essential repairs like fixing broken windows etc, a looot of people here on south Europe are in situations way worse than us. And I think this will bring about a moment we could seize.
Europe always seemed like a very bad idea to me
How do you mean?
Like the whole thing just seems like a waste, it’s just a horrible idea to begin with, you should really try something else
I have a feeling you’re being humourous, but it’s flying too far over my head
I don’t mean to speak for them but I think they’re just making a joke that Europe being created generally was a bad idea, and it should cease existing. Kind of a layered joke, it could mean “Europe” as in the “EU” should not exist, it could mean that the continent should not exist, it could mean that we should go back in time and shoot Charlemagne in the head lol.
Ahh, what a better world we would have:
Sure, let’s joke about millions of people just never being born.
I don’t think anyone is taking it that seriously, it’s just cathartic shitposting so as to cope with the millions of people never having been born, and millions murdered, by virtue of European history having played out as it did and continues to.
Someone else would then do all that shit, maybe it would took longer but capitalism would still came and turned into imperialism.
