Revolutionary greetings! I am a revolutionary communist activist from the State of Wisconsin.

Besides that, I am also a transgender woman who is interested in history, philosophy, sociology, and many other social sciences.

  • I feel mistreated

  • I consider Hexbear even letting me in was a sign of trust, but perhaps you are right.

  • I am asking a good-faith question. It would be appreciated if you could respond in good-faith too.

  • My name is a statement of the location I come from. I fully accept that Wisconsin is a settler construct and am I living on stolen land.

  • I do not deny being the same person who is in that page. I am here to interact in good-faith with other leftists without arguing over ideological differences. I am sorry you are assuming ill-intent on my part, but this question is raised in good-faith and not to provoke any drama.

  • New McCarthyite Campaign Against Mamdani and DSA

    Jump

  • This seems more like an attempt to justify foreign imperialism as opposed to repress domestic revolutionaries. DSA by itself is no threat to the US bourgeoisie and people like Mamdani are impotent social democrats.

  • Is it wrong to like Chomsky's "Manufacturing Consent"?

    Jump

  • I agree, we do not need that. There is a reason why the book achieved a wide range of popularity among non-socialist figures as it very much panders to them.

  • so I found my campus communist bookclub

    Jump

  • They consider China imperialist and said the USSR never achieved socialism and was capitalist actually. I thought these people only existed online.

    What definition of "imperialism" are they using? Did they use the term "social-imperialist" at all? These people exist in real life, albeit confined to very comfy armchairs in isolated book clubs, detached from the masses.

    They also said AES is a Brezhnevite revisionism and only 2 maybe 3 places have ever achieved socialism but didn't say which ones.

    To be fair, it did originate in Brezhnev's Soviet Union, but regarding socialism as ever happening at all is strange for "left" communists. Most of them argue that socialism never existed in my experience.

    Looks like you have Bordigists who can't even be consistent with their own ideology. I am sorry to hear that.

  • I mean, he is a good linguist, just never really particularly good as a political activist.

    A lot of Maoists are snake-bitten (for lack of a better term) with Parenti because he seems to have supported the Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact after de-Stalinization. I think that Parenti had some good things to say and his works do hold value if read critically, which is why I occasionally do read him. I have never read that work, but I really should considering how often it is recommended by communists.

    I hate myself and I hate being alive.

    Jump

  • Back in late 2024, I felt the same way. I had my first panic attack and I felt like I was dying, and was in a state of panic and extreme health anxiety for weeks afterwards. For me, life is worth living because you have the unique opportunity as a revolutionary to make the life of those around you better by fighting the fight to abolish capitalist wage slavery. That is what kept me from harming myself, and that might be appealing to you too.

    May I ask, how long have you felt like this?

  • It is one thing to recognize the system is problematic. It is another to want to meaningfully change it.

  • Or that trump is mentioned in the Epstein files now a whopping 1 million times

    Jump

  • The amount of mental gymnastics conservatives go through to support their favorite rich pedophiles is absurd. A conservative family member literally reacted to me talking about Trump's involvement in the Epstein files by saying "so what?"

  • "Communism and Nazism are equally bad. Hell, communism might even be worse." (proceeds to peddle literal Nazi propaganda)

  • -Nazis killed around 15 million

    A gross understatement which borders on Holocaust denial.
