I haven't really listened to Cum Town before but after that episode I really don't wanna. Maybe it's just a real bad introduction and they do good stuff sometimes but I dunno they seem like a bunch of assholes and I find it hard to care if they're usually funny

I find the level of outright snark, vitriol and contempt this podcast has about the political climate to be incredibly cathartic.

I wonder how the Chapo boys would feel to hear that. I remember one thing it was Matt said, along the lines that that the feeling of catharsis liberals love about like John Stewart is bad because it defuses the kind of energy that could take the form of political action.

Yes and therefore when democrats say "wow at least we're not as bad as those assholes" and prove it by passing an anti-racist, anti-misogynist agenda, they have actually accomplished something positive and noteworthy. People suggesting these statements and actions were just a smokescreen to resist full socialism now are either blinded by their privilege or by their need to grind that ideological ax.

Yeah, that crime bill that was pivotal in creating the prison industrial complex we have today and the slashing of welfare which took away support from impoverished mothers sure are anti-racist, anti-misogynist agendas.

Wow there's another podcast with @ByYourLogic (can't remember his real name)? Awesome. He's funny as hell.

bob avakian's stupid cult closed down the bookstore they ran and now there's no socialist bookstore in chicago.

FWIW your typical International Socialist Organization meeting tends to have a good selection of Haymarket Press books, and I know they got a strong showing in Chicago. That's their headquarters I think.

The stuff about uncompensated housework kind of sounds like the "Wages for Housework" movement by Selma James in 1970's Italy, except with a white guilt paypal angle.

hoo boy, those tweets though... you'd think a self-described indigenous rights activist would have sympathy for a people forced and displaced from their homes and corralled into meager encampments by a military power who claims it's their divine right to do so.

but like, are there actual stalinists on these forums?

edit: I was at a trump protest community gathering thing and there were organizations with tables there, one was a local communist group that described itself as "marxist-leninist but not stalinist. we know he was problematic."

Hey chapheads, a dude who was protesting with Antifa against Milo Yabbadabbaduopolis at University of Washington got shot by a right wing reactionary at the J20 protest. If you guys want to throw any money his way, that is a thing you can do.

I'm surprised that these guys reaction to the historic matches this weekend has been really muted in twitter, maybe they don't think much of the effectiveness of what's going on.
