Hmmm, I wonder if the pro second amendment crowd will defend trans people’s right to bear arms…

Scorsese is totally lying out of his ass in that last bit lmao.

Nah, Scorsese has always been crazy about movies so it wouldn’t surprise me if he’s telling the truth here. This is the guy who imagined and storyboarded a Roman epic when he was 11 so him pointing out aspects in flims that he loved with his friends isn’t outside the realm of possibility.

Robin Wood is probably the most well known and respected Marxist film critic. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robin_Wood_(critic)

There’s definitely a huge difference between her and the rest of Chapo. Like the other three have moved pretty far to the left since the show began that I’m surprised that they still associate with her and have her on as a guest sometimes.

Not a fan of this video creator. If you watch enough of their stuff, you tend to notice a weird reactionary viewpoint to their ethos of film.

Well, don’t go to any protests/events or don’t join any orgs then if you don’t want to end up on a list of some sort. lol

I mean the people involved in this like The ANSWER Coalition have been putting on large scale protests since the Iraq War, so this ain’t some amateur lib nonsense.

I believe Breakthrough News will most likely live stream it although it hasn’t been announced yet.

Very clearly a mistake that’s been corrected in the link if you actually clicked on and read it.

Genuinely shocked that people are saying this is a lib protest. Maybe try reading who’s involved before making an “”””original”””” snarky comment.

Repurposing something I wrote earlier:

Ben Burgis is a hack. He, along with Douglas Lain, used to be apart of Zero Books and made Youtube videos for that publishing house’s channel. They’re both Left Coms who complain about cancel culture and political correctness (Burgis was even on Rogan). They even made a few videos bashing Michael Parenti that appear to have been deleted from the Zero Books channel. [It looks like Lain reuploaded one of them onto his channel here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XI57956Ln5M] Even one of Lain’s videos is an interview with Glenn Greenwald with a thumbnail that says “Flashback: Glenn Greenwald is not your enemy”, while Burgis actually released a book with the title, “Canceling Comedians While The World Burns”.

I do hope they vote out their leadership since workers were allowed to cross the picketline to help load military weapons.

“I was in Nicaragua with the Sandinistas. I’ve argued for Leonard Peltier, Mumia Abu-Jamal, the United Farm Workers. I’ve been a radical for a long time. I guess it’s too bad. I’d be more marketable as a right-wing redneck. But I got into this to tell the truth as I saw it.”

Wild that you’re comparing revolutionary optimism to self help books. I’ll have to let Fred Hampton, Mao Zedong and Ho Chi Minh know.

“The most immediate antidote to nihilism is revolutionary optimism. Revolutionary optimism isn’t rooted in a blind hope that change will come at some unknown point in the future. It is cultivated by the acknowledgement that only through participation in the struggle to liberate the people can the lives of the people be transformed. Revolutionary optimism is bolstered by a deep curiosity in and knowledge of the history of class struggle. Social change is treated as a science, one with distinct properties and elements that are both inevitable and profoundly dependent upon the actions taken by the people.”

Lotta lib comments here so I’ll reiterate again: REVOLUTIONARY OPTIMISM IS ESSENTIAL!

Really funny that people here are bashing JT’s video considering the positive work he does educating and encouraging people to join orgs and be active.

Good post

Helmed by the director of Napoleon Dynamite no less!

What “incomplete information”? What sources do you want? Twitter links? lol

Get over yourself. Even if I gave you what you wanted, you would come up with another excuse and another and another. All to prove you were right in deleting my post.

Also getting too close to a fence is flimsy justification for peace policing. Not like people were advocating violence or even property destruction from the evidence in this post.

I mean…

This is an activist who was on the ground.
