You’re a walking, mealy-mouthed advertisement. Your only resume you have is astroturfing the fediverse and being a worthless fuck-up who tells starving Palestinians to “get a job”.

read Settlers.

“uhh, I don’t like settlers because Sakai criticized Lenin” - take I’ve heard before

a lot of people we appreciate in this community did. A criticism isn’t a condemnation, but rather an acknowledgement of the difference in material conditions that make up the base of a revolution in countries that are settler-states or aren’t in this specific case.

“In 1858 Engels sarcastically described the tamed British workers in the bluntest terms: “The English proletariat is actually becoming more and more bourgeois, so that this most bourgeois of all nations is apparently aiming ultimately at the possession of a bourgeois aristocracy and a bourgeois proletariat alongside the bourgeoisie. For a nation which exploits the whole world this is to a certain extent justifiable.”

(2) Britain was the Imperial Rome, the Amerikan Empire of that day - a nation which “feasted” on the exploitation of colonies around the entire world. Engels, as a communist, didn’t make lame excuses for the corrupted English workers, but exposed them. He held the English workers accountable to the world proletariat for their sorry political choices.”

also give Conditions of the Working Class a good reread.

This guy is going full boomer tirade.

What the fuck am I reading?

I’ve spent a surprising amount of time on it!

It is like modded minecraft in some ways! I wish I could slap Create! on there or something.

Automotive workshop and lots of spare supplies as I would propose that it would also be something academical for prospective young engineers and mechanically-inclined apprentices. I also like the idea of “music rooms” and lounges Ildsaye mentioned.

I learned a lot of what I know from an auto-shop at 14-15. That was the definite start.

I’ve been really fond of the game Lucid Blocks as of lately. It’s a liminal, dreamy Minecraft clone(complimentary) that reminds me of LSD Dream Simulator in the absurd, non-narrative “walking simulator” that is a tad bit more interactable than Dream Simulator.

It’s good to enjoy when you “make up” stories for the worlds (called Qualia) you create. I always have fun trying to picture that I’m walking through the dreams of random individuals sleeping across the world and adding or attributing meaning to the generation of the worlds and their features on the “dream-state” of the individual I’m walking through.

Cool stuff!

Some shitlib has your email somehow and is using it to send you snarky bits about “Free courses on the huludoomer, stupid tankie”. Typically, shitlibs are like this; not realizing that their “online political courses” are just reaffirming slop meant to coddle their settler sensibilities.

Why would DPRK need propaganda in that vein? It’s one thing to propagandize the capabilities of your craft/weapons, but I don’t see how they would be overexaggerating or how anything relating to divine has to do with it. They have capable, sufficient and quite frankly, working, deterrence against the United States.

Doesn’t apply here as much at all but generally I’m not sure why people are debating either or not blowback is going to pick and choose on definitions of targets when in reality, most westerners are settlers and there are many more that are zionist. Settlers and zionists are fair game when it comes to the blowback that is going to occur when you bomb the fuck out of the world and I’m not going to cry when zionists or settlers of any caliber are taken out by a part of the global resistance who has complete and total reason to after years of being literally bombed.

It’s okay to be uncomfortable with that though; but pretending there is some “moral superiority” because you’re condemning what is simply the consequences of the West’s actions. You can condemn it all you want, doesn’t change that the U.S and the West is still going to do the things that cause this. I’m not going to get sad about a Zionist organization getting destroyed or attacked either, just sad for anyone who was simply going there without any “political purpose” getting hurt or killed in these events.

How can I change this mentality? What can I do? Why is this mentality even so acceptable in the first place?

You don’t because that would require changing the fact that he sees benefit and personal interest in maintaining anti-imperialism and “Radicalism” as unrelated “subjects”. Good luck on doing that, I genuinely think you’d have a more successful time counter-recruiting against them and risking being a bit more “unprofessional” by actually directing people to the “Real movement” so to speak. Feels like a shitty thing to do, but genuinely you would need to change this entire singular guy’s mindset instead of just actually recruiting from the base that already exists and finding far more like-minded people to put material pressure on his ideology and how it’s being implemented in practice versus just “coming off as a pushy organizer”.

I feel as though I am going crazy.

I would say no for ML orgs.

Eventually, the people of Taiwan will elect a pro-PRC leaning government and will be reunited with the mainland thru osmosis.

Don’t think America will allow that. We know what America does.

Reading through, they mostly support the article I posted. I read up until page 24, will read more later when I am free!

The U.S military however still can be a “solution” for those who aren’t poor but still have “stagnation” as it is seen as a way to “specialize” and gain skills in a field while getting a government pension. Most people who joined the military I know were exactly like this; they stagnated after college and decided to take their skills to the military. That does track.

Most people in poverty do not go to college (below 30k a year). That’s anecdotal; but I’ll bet you 10 bucks that the statistics back that up too.

Generally, it draws attraction. It also depends on the organization. If you’re in a demsoc or a caucus of a demsoc; I suppose it could be alright. If you’re in a ML org; there might be some questions to raise there regarding what I said.

I have had the opposite experience. Google’s shit ai fails to grab the basic queries i’m looking for. The only thing the AI has been successful at is finding very specific troubleshooting guides for very specific computer problems related to modding. That’s the one good use it has had for me so far.

Otherwise, I don’t have any uses for it. When I did more photo-editing; it was very good at cleaning up blending and lines on images I would make.

Its addressed in the article.

yup

I would say it’s risky speaking that their C.O could ask about their “Personal activities” and pretty much get an unlimited investigation (national defense or court martial/etc) going on whatever organization you are a part of.

That’s one of the biggest reasons I recommend against organizing with military.
