it was weird that Karl Marx wrote a bunch of stuff about political philosophy instead of following in the family tradition of comedy.

we document things so much that we expect some kind of spectacle out of it nowadays to really make some kind of meaningful impact

instead its just an oversaturated disconnect of thousands of videos on liveleak that has desensitized you

im glad that portland chased out the nazis and nobody got seriously hurt, at least as far as I know. You're always going to have to fight them, they're never going to go away, ever.

what these dipshits should be asking themselves is not "how dare these antifascists not take themselves seriously and distract from the Real Work of podcasting" but "how do we moblize this public sentiment for everything" but it doesnt matter because politics for them is just an endlessly entertaining palace intrigue

I'm very pro "Go to war with the army you have" when it comes to organization but the podcast crew is utterly worthless at anything other than getting people to not do things while loudly shouting about how smart and actually leftist they are for not doing anything.

true but having an alternative media sphere where people can go to, like Boomers with Rushbo, just sort of have nonstop socialist propaganda in the background while they work, is something that is actually quite valuable

it's no vanguard front but almost nothing is, and there's a value to creating a left-only space that isn't curated by billionaires

Fair. I am just extremely tired of being told by peers that they read something that a Chapo had tweeted and that's why supporting a strike is worthless and nothing can be done unless you live in Brooklyn.

I don't listen to them religious or anything but I've never gotten the impression from Chapo that I should just lay down and accept what's coming, or that labor is icky and gross. Hell Chapo was probably one of the only nationally known orgs that interviewed the extreme left candidate running in my congressional district

I think their own biases may be exerting themselves here

There's groups like DSA and SRA that likely have a local chapter near you where you can meet likeminded people. In my area those groups don't officially participate in or signal boost specific anti-fascist actions, you have to keep your ear to the ground to keep up with demonstrations and counter-protests. My local IWW twitter account is the most reliable follow I've found for that, but it seems like DSA does a good job of it some other places.

Exactly what I was looking for, thanks! It looks like there is an active chapter here doing anti ICE protests. I just didn’t know where to look.

I thought about joining the SRA but I still need a TS security clearance for work for a couple more years. :( Given that “antifa” is about to be declared a terrorist “organization” and freedom of speech is only for Nazis I’m sure that’d be a problem when I need to renew soon.

UHHHHH

from a Red scare dipshit talking with Amber Frost:

quote:

‘You should be able to hate and hatred should be protected, as long as it doesn’t spill over into physical violence.’ ‘There’s this idea that we live in a white supremacist country when we fundamentally don’t’, says Khachiyan. She mentions antifa, the self-styled anti-fascist group that, since our conversation, has hit the headlines for beating up a right-leaning journalist in Portland. ‘Antifa have manufactured a threat to have some semblance of an identity’, she says. ‘All these people who say they are anti-fascist don’t know what it means to be persecuted.’

There's a reason why I said the podcast crew cause the only dumb poo poo I hear from Chapo comes from Frost.
