man I kept scrolling through a lot of nazi groups, report them, look at what other groups their members had subscribed to and repeat.
Unless they openly said “we are nazis and hate x” nothing would happen. Worst were the DoD:S groups openly larping as SS commandos, but they’re just “roleplaying” I guess and never got removed.
the onion bought infowars, the brand, the domain, it’s intellectual property like the character “Alex Jones” all of it belongs to Infowars. Apparently the desk as well
but it’s viability as free real estate will be through the roof 🤮
huh? induction is when numbers go brrrr that ones easy
None of that implies that fucks is a complete field sadly. If that were the case every bounded sequence of fucks would have an accumulation point. Which actually checks out, if you keep all your fucks within a certain range they’re bound to get focused on something. So never mind fucker is isomorphic to the complex field.
i got real lucky with my starting words on #4
Idk, what broke me into leftism was “Wage Labour and Capital” and what sealed the deal was “Socialism: From Utopian to Scientific”. It wasn’t the freshness of the ideas that blew me away but how solid and rigorous the foundations are.
Before that I thought lefties just turn the “social programs” dial to 11 and the infighting was about how to best turn that dial and how social programs should work. To see such a rigorous approach to politics blew my socks off and broke with all my preconceived notions.
the beginning of the redemption arc? I hear every anarchist mention “The Conquest of Bread” by Kropotkin, it’s gotta be good I just haven’t gotten around to reading it.
oh also, not that I have read it, but I hear “The conquest of bread” by Peter Kropotkin is almost mandatory reading for any anarchist.
I’d be wary of ukranian anarchist spaces if you don’t know anyone there. Some of the “anarchists” from the maidan went on to fight for Azov and OUN. Also I hope you are reasonably safe that your connection can’t be snooped on as I’d think they are looking to draft lefty people first. Stay safe!
Due to the lack of a massive organization, the first anarchist and anti-fascist volunteers went to war individually as single fighters, military medics, and volunteers. They tried to form their own squad, but due to lack of knowledge and resources, this attempt was unsuccessful. Some people even joined the Azov battalion and the OUN (Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists). The reasons were mundane: they joined the most accessible troops. Consequently, some people converted to right-wing politics.

cis people dont get an opinion on what goes on in trans spaces.
Since I’m cis I would butt out of the conversation. I’ll take your answer as a yes however and tell you to shut the fuck up about “rituals” or whatever that take place in communities (in this case trans community) that you’re not part of. You have nothing to gain here, no valuable perspective to offer and no hope of understanding the ins and outs of a community you’re not part of. Leave it be.
are you cis?
Hexbear went woke 😞
oh yeah meeting other people while sick is inexcusable and was the norm before covid even. Hope you feel better soon
On hexbear people must record themselves clearly and loudly proclaiming “I love my trans comrades” before posting. This recording is checked automatically to make sure it’s new and it’s a bannable offense to use the same recording twice. It is then verified manually to make sure the recording is clear and loud enough. This is done for every post or comment that is submitted. There are petabytes of storage used just for all the “I love my trans comrades” recordings.

🫡 uncritical support to #42 may all of their thesis fail and their grant money run out soon.
Basically that religion is a huge part of the culture. The year of a lot of cultures revolves around major religious holidays, christmas, ramadan etc. It’s deeply ingrained into social dynamics, language and so on basically messing with it will cause a huge upset just from the magnitude of the impact it will have on peoples lives. Being part of a religious community is a big part of those peoples lives. Celebrating religious holidays a big affair with the whole family. Also could you imagine western economies without the christmas season? A lot of peoples livelihood depend directly on producing commodities for easter or christmas.
It’s also not really something material you can control, people can choose to be religious and teach their kids accordingly no matter what. Where’s the boundary to organized religion?
Add to that that it both gives comfort to a lot of people but also makes it hard for them to break with it on the threat of some form of punishment (like opium, dulls pain but once addicted its painful to suddenly stop taking it). I know I wouldn’t have survived my depression if not for religion.
So a shock “therapy” banning religion as much as is possible will cause a huge pushback because it’s dear to a lot of laborers. It’s been used by the bourgeoisie yes, but very indirectly. You can point at how someone withholding the means of production needs to be made to relinquish it, but you have to look at the case of each clergyman individually in how much they collaborated with the capitalist class.
I’m sure someone with a deeper understanding can explain it better but that was the opinion as I saw it and which got me intrigued.
philosophers baffled by the concept of counting 🤦😂
