Discussions (talks, debates, disputes) about parties and about common tactics are essential; without them the masses are disunited; without them common decisions are impossible and, therefore, unity of action is also impossible.

STOP DOING BORDERS

• Want to draw lines anyway for a laugh? We have a tool for that:
It's called "WORLDBUILDING"
• "Yes please suspend HUMAN RIGHTS near the lines. Please make it illegal to cross the lines without CERTAIN PAPERS"

There's nothing I could find in this article that I disagree with. US labor leadership are clueless and complicit in this decline. Highly recommended read
The labor movement isn’t just weak, it’s approaching an event horizon: the point at which unions become so small they lose the political, cultural, and institutional mass to successfully reverse their own decline. 🧵 jacobin.com/2026/02/unio...
Unions Are Going to Die Unless Something Big Changes Soon
The labor movement isn’t just the weakest it’s been in a century. Without a radical and aggressive shift in organizing, US unions could effectively cease to matter in the very near future.

Anti-trans hate is an industry. Not a movement, not a moral concern, not an organic uprising of worried parents — an industry, deliberately constructed, lavishly funded, & strategically deployed to protect the interests of the powerful men who finance it

Continue building up the movement and community defense infrastructure instead of letting DHS-supporting Democrats wind it down and siphon energy into getting their lying asses elected. Stay on the offense. Don't settle for sacrificial lambs presented as "bad apples".

I will say gently: every famous counter sit-in from the Civil Rights era was a crime.
Nonviolent civil disobedience is quite literally and explicitly a strategy where you commit crimes.

I'm sorry, I'm lol'ing hard at "crime he disapproves of." As if some crimes are perfectly fine and okay.
Yeah, go ahead and set the city on fire. Just like Trump and Steven Miller want to see happen. Play right into their hands!
This is so stupid.

It's trite to point it out, but the central tenent of liberalism is the right to private property. The security structures of the state maintain that right, and consequently powerful liberals *never* want to see any state security structures lose power, because it puts their property at risk.

It shows that we were right in our opinion that the principal cause of the present crisis… is the lag of the leaders (“ideologists”, revolutionaries, Social-Democrats) behind the spontaneous upsurge of the masses.

Hey, this Bovino thing is a pathetic attempt to make all these horrors the fault of one guy, and it would be a serious, serious crisis if people fell for it. ICE needs to be abolished, bc this - terror, murder - are what it exists for. Nothing else. This is just an attempt to mollify us. Stay angry
