franco posted:I'll give the virus one thing: I'm furloughed and my work has an online "hub" thing that was mainly used for people getting rotas/booking holiday and the like before this all kicked off. It also has a facebook-lite where we're being encouraged to "stay in touch!" and the "inspirational" memes and shite that people are posting is revealing utter bellends that I didn't even detect in real life. Very helpful. I take the furlough very seriously so I'm not even looking at hilarious minion memes on the work Facebook group

forkboy84 posted:Personally I don't think there's any value in pretending any strongman wrapping themselves in a red flag should uncritically be taken as my ally but my politics are closer to anarchism than anything else these days & I know what you think about that so I doubt we'll agree on this. But the cynical politics where "the enemy of the US is my ally" has done absolutely gently caress all good for the left. It is simultaneously possible & in fact desirable to be morally consistent on condemning US imperialism & Chinese or Russian imperialism, not because of how some liberal with a boner for foreign intervention will react but because it is in fact the right stance to take.

only abolishing the nation removes the possibility of inherently national fascism imo. The working class has no nation.
