Liberals are weak and over sensitive, Conservatives are weak and oversensitive with a hair trigger

A liberal will cry and write a think piece. A conservative’ll shoot you because they got upset then go cry. A commie’ll explain why you’re wrong, out organize you, and then do whatever it takes and fight till the last one standing for what’s good and decent.

Yr only proper ‘ard if you’re a commo.

You know, it’s wonderful that Star Wars is showing little girls that they can grow up to participate in revolutionary movements.

TBH One Of The Reasons I Lean So Heavily Anti-Authoritarian in My Politics

Is because I have a feeling I’d go full on chairman Bob if I were given half the chance.

Dudes in my org are really pissing me off right now, some of them have actually done seriously sketchy shit and other ones have just not taken obvious steps to avoid looking sketchy and problematic and now we’re having a PR crisis and because of identity pol stuff people won’t listen to my dude comrades and so I have to handle it as the most centrally involved woman and I’m just angry.

Fantasy:

Becoming a famous YouTube beauty vlogger and a bunch of cosmetics companies getting in trouble after sending me review samples because they’re “assisting communists”

Good leftist theory podcasts? Do they exist?

Actually I think that the idea that “idealism can replace expertise” pervades a lot of the left and even well intentioned liberal volunteerism

From “I have no knowledge of agriculture, have never studied it, don’t know about terrain or soil quality but because I want everyone to have plenty of food my plan will totally work and not cause a famine” to “I’m a random college kid with no construction experience but because I want to help people my building houses or schools or whatever will turn out great”. Idk, I think we often think being good is a substitute for being good at what you do. You have to be both. It’s so strangely arrogant to think idealism means you don’t need knowledge or training

There is no ethical consumption under late capitalism is my shopping mantra

Why isn’t there a leftist confessions blog?

Not for like shit that’d get you locked up but like “I’m a Trotskyist and sometimes I just really feel like revolution shouldn’t be permanent” or whatever
