Yes we just sometimes forget we (leftists) are their enemies not the republican party.

I fully agree and I personally don't try to step out of line but I get humbled daily trying to learn about the practice of leftist politics and theory. We already have tried a lot and know for the most part why something failed. A lot of leftists in the imperial core just work on vibes instead of actual principles and theory

Can I get a link to your write up? I have some sympathies for technofeudalism as a super structural phenomenon in Marxist terms where capitalism has morphed into this thing which just seeks rent from people who degrade their own stuff to work. Uber, Lyft, and Airbnb all just take rent from allowing spaces so it is something I'm interested in reading about.

 

This is a rant plus analysis so please excuse the flowery language that might pop up.

There's this weird celebration from left Lib/mildly lefty figures, mostly online mind you this isn't that present in real life, about supposed end of "woke", these supposed champions of working class politics love that labour rights of queer people are being stripped away and smashed into the ground. They talk about labour rights but when it comes to racism in those same rights? They get squirmy. I literally hate these people, they think just because queer people are receiving backlash that means they went too far and I hate these people with my life. They have done nothing but write jacobin articles while sitting on the money they received for shilling DNC.

I do, I have read little theory, I get so tired. I just let something run in the background while I take a nap or do my studies for law school. I try to watch yt vids which are reliable and given as sources by many people and study those things much as I can

That's mostly true but you don't need to forgive the guilty because you're on a bourgeois platform. Just say accountable or legal or labour rights, there are numerous ways to say action against unfairness without directly saying put a bullet in the head of every open ai and palentir programmer. Personally speaking I seriously don't like engaging with people because I just end up alienating them because after seeing everything I just can't bring the emotional capacity to talk to a western liberal argument that's why I don't mod places either.

By active communist I mean openly saying I am one, I used to not accept it because of bourgeois propaganda but a lot of things I had in mind and wanted to do aligned with communism, I'm thinking about what organisation to join in real life once I complete my law degree since many organisations need help with law or just provide free litigation to every organisation i can.

I'm referring to general discussion both online and in real life, watching the historic context and the way modern movements have reacted to bourgeois reaction it seems few are actually ready to do what it takes for a revolution. Most just want to swing signs which won't get them arrested, if a Palestinian flag gets you arrested most people will give up on Palestinian symbols, they're so afraid of violence required to fight the bourgeois state.
