Addendum: people look at me funny and I guess that might be a deal breaker for some?

TIL Jews can’t exist without murdering Palestinians

Living in Shenzhen openly trans + lesbian and I haven’t had problems yet

Can this be the new canon spelling?

Classic branding by the capital class of communism as an ideology of the wealthy. Trick the masses into thinking that the other side is the wealthy trying to trick them and you can get them to support anything

Hey (sorry to necropost)

I took the plunge and moved to China. You’d be surprised how far you can get with just translate apps. Obviously it’s kinda rude to put no effort into learning the language but it’s not the most urgent thing to me

Germany lost WWII but Fascism won

“socialist” my ass

Holy fuck that’s disgustingly inaccurate. If anything, Ukraine is analogous to Israel, when the Donbass being analogous to Palestine.

The US has taken the side of the genociders in both conflicts. Plus it’s super gross to try to determine which act of mass murderer is worse, even if you had perfect information which you never do in such a situation

CIA bots making bad-faith arguments to defame and fracture leftist movements, I suspect.

I’ve just been looking through a chinese-english dictionary and watching youtube videos. I plan to take a class once I go to China - I feel like that’s gonna be the easiest way

Thank you - that means a lot. I’d love to meet up when the time comes.

Yeah, I’m in this picture - attempted back in December. In order for me to regain hope I had to focus on the goal of leaving the US and moving to China.

If you’re sorry about colonialism than why aren’t you advocating for the return of the Koh-i-noor?

The anarchist space performs an essential role for radicalization - it allows a way for someone to radicalize left without rejecting the narrative posed by the capitalist propaganda machine. This is how I was first radicalized. The capitalist propaganda is so pervasive that its easy to take many of its assumptions for granted. Even if you begin to reject the narrative, it’s hard to avoid falling into the assumptions posed by it. Radicalizing leftward makes it easier to reject the capitalist narrative later, allowing radicalization to happen in phases.

Much of the infighting between anarchists and tankies is, in my view, created by the capitalist propaganda machine. By manufacturing conflict they make coordination between us more difficult, and also slow the radicalization process from anarchist to tankie.
