Workman is actually fucking incredible

end to a promising project

The "project" being Peruvian socialism, as the term will be forever demonic thanks to this grave-digger

Nazi texts are literally just streams of racist consciousness. There is no internal consistency, research or principled criticism, just hate, grasping aspirational clout chasing, and conspiracy theories -- throwing shit at the wall and seeing what sticks.

You can learn a lot by just reading the introduction to books. Since you're reading some anarchist texts, check out Errico Malatesta, whose best works are short, concise, and rigorous.

I was just recommending this to someone else so its fresh on my mind, but Rick Roderick's The Self Under Siege philosophy course is an amazing primer. He gets into the subject matter while being very relatable.

IMO less important than reading theory as an individual is finding a theory group to have discussions with. They can influence you to read more, and what to read, but having people who can direct you through some major pitfalls can get you up to speed in weeks, better than listening to podcasts for years.

But if reading is really what you wanna do, try Ten Days that Shook the World by Jack Reed. Its one of the most exciting books ever written, and its a first hand account of the Russian revolution.

The "left wing activist organizations" link in the top comment links to a Newsweek article about left wing violence.

Get a grip.

Yeah I think that's what I was getting at lol try not to cringe to death

Mosin-Nagants are heavy, kick hard, and their triggers are rough, squeaky, and loose.

Its really common to replace the stock with a lightweight stock, replace the trigger mechanism with something that pulls smoothly, install a scope mount and scope since the gun was invented before long range scopes were common/standard for rifles, and add a compensator to the barrel to mitigate the strong kickback from shooting it.

I'm on fire!

I think that it means autistic. I was in Venice last year. My wife is an intervention specialist who works with autistic students, particularly non-speaking students, and we were talking to some Venetians about it. They weren't like acutely aware of autism like in the USA, they said that support and services were growing there, but that it was still pretty grassroots. So the context/meaning of the word could be different than other places, while still having the same basic meaning.

This works on multiple levels, since you have to replace half of the parts of the Nagant, otherwise it is miserable

We created a fork of woke 2.0 called Wonk, that our team of volunteer contributors are super excited about! Check it out!

Stalinism is objectively the moderate wing of social democracy
