Its no secret that I am a socialist, I hope that with my posts and replies that others may follow. If you like what I have to say I would recommend checking Cowbee's comprehensive list credit to comrade @Cowbee@lemmy.ml for they're work

  • Not voting discredits the allusion of democracy. I'm all for voting within ones own interest. But I won't treat someone with hostility for they're choice.

  • Fascism will happen with or without trump. Billionaire know what they want and they will buy it, this shift to popularism isn't organic, the crisis's we witness are brought to us by billionaires and they will scape goat with whoever they can buy.

    Sorry to hear. Living with disabilities isn't easy and I'm similar in many ways although I am fully mobile I have had the odd interaction whilst at a door due to anxiety. Although I do take issue with believing people to be stupid. Most people are fed propaganda, lack critical thinking but anyone can learn. Some of Britain's greatest anti fascist 1940s were ex fascist's.

    My "dazzling" is born through passion and a want for a just society. Posting here on Lemmy may empower other to do the same or to keep doing.

  • I don't believe in accelerationism either, the USSR went from shit to worse with no sign of changing. But I recognise that fascism is on the rise, and no amount of finger pointing will stop it. People need to radicalise and actually do something. Voting won't fix the ruin that is the neo liberal project and the debt its forced us into.

  • This same argument can be used with electoral protest. It would be disingenuous to say none voting in protest materialised from nothing.

    Yes? Congratulations, you are therefore contributing to our continued democratic decline.

    I don't see your point. If people aren't voting then that is a symptom and not a cause. I think also a nuanced lens helps with this. People not voting isn't binary. some knowingly protest, some are seeing the slow encroachment of inequality and just couldn't care less which leader will continue to fuck them over.

  • Scratch a liberal a fascist bleeds.

  • Why don't you do something about it? I see lots of your posts. Mostly memes or the interesting history pics but you aren't a revolutionary, I can't imagine you canvassing, attending demos, mutual aid, building union power.

    Prove me wrong.

    But for now, you come off as a neo-libral happy with the status quo from the previous party.

  • This is a great point. I am a paying member of the SP. I attend major demos across the southwest. Currently building housing unions in my city.

    Voting in neo-librisism I won't do.

  • Not a lot to work with Pug.

  • And you don't think this is already happening. Look at our prison systems, the wars we fund, the number of homeless people on our streets. Things are rotten to the core and good for you in your unbridled support of neo-librisism but I'm out, I will be active in meaningful political action at demos, door to door but I won't be pointing fingers playing this sad blame game you guys enjoy so dearly. Keep towing the line and see where you end up.

    And portraying this as me killing disadvantage people is so fucking rotten you should be ashamed. I know what its like to be homeless. How it feels for the education system to fail. The brutality of job security. The none existent programmes for mental health in the UK.

    But again keep towing the line that allows this broken system to produce fascism.

  • You are missing the point, voting in a party that has been moving slowly right isn't a way to fix it.

  • It is never about winning the election. Or voting in a third party.

    What the radical left are doing is sitting out in protest of a broken system. Over here in the UK we had the lowest voter any living generation would have witnessed. The reason why is we are disenfranchised and won't support the elites.

    This is the kindling of a revolution.

    Anyone who doesn't understand this should school themselves on historic materialism. No amount of wining will change how large swafts of people react to their material condition.

  • Calyxos pixel 4a 5g. Works pretty well phones old but does what I need of a phone, replaced the screen last year and actually down graded from my pixel 6a as I like how wide the 4a is.

  • This is so confusing, first trump seeks to ban tiktok, then he allows it, and now its banned again?

  • Corner the market. Then close in.

    Don't buy into subscription services.

  • Assuming America is a democracy is the first mistake. killing the native population, viewing non land owners, poc and many more as lessors. Let's not forget who wrote the constitution.

  • Just realised what I did, so I made two batches one after the other. My first batch:

     
        
    235g Warm Water
    1 tsp Salt
    1.5 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (plus more for the tray)
    3.5g Yeast
    280g Bread Flour
    TSP sugar
    
    
      

    This is the one thats water and sitting over night in the fridge.

    Then on to the second batch. Which I felt I could do again from my brain and completely fumbled 😂😭😂

    I will hopefully have a post tomorrow with picture. No olive oil as I am broke.

  • I hope so Lol. And yea I use the same technique leaving the yeast in water and suger, no timing though instead I wait for it to foam.

  • This sounds promising as I mixed till smooth and elastic then went on to stretch and fold. Next time I will try this out.
