That makes sense, I’m just trying to understand OP’s view on large meetings. I understand the issue with calling it a punishment that those who are late have to miss the first part, but always waiting for everyone be present just seems impossible (similarly to delaying a concert).
Do you think a concert starting on time when not everyone who bought a ticket has arrived yet is ableist?
Sure, it’s a term relative to time and place. Are people that want to preserve labour rights called conservatives in your country?
In most places in the West conservatives don’t really want to preserve the status quo, they’re often reactionary and want to go ‘back’ to a previous (or imaginary) status quo
A conservative because you probably don’t live in a communist country which means that workers are being stolen from which means that the laws aren’t as pro labour as you describe them to be.
If governments were to put as much money into train infrastructure as they do in car infrastructure a train would 100% get you home faster and get rid of all traffic on the roads.
I’m so gay
I like to hold my laptop at exactly those points where your design holds them and I suspect that that is the reason why my laptop is bent now. I hold it like that whenever I move it so not for long durations but frequently. I’d definitely recommend against doing it for longer durations.
Just like we have the right to say that your comments make you look like an idiot.
Organising is done through education. Workers must learn exactly in what ways they’re taken advantage of by their bosses and educate others with this knowledge as well. Once enough workers have joined a revolutionary (communist) party because they agree that the oppression of their class must be stopped, they can start their revolution. Workers that work for production companies must take control of the means of the production, workers that work in government agencies must take control over their respective agency. Workers that work in the military must take control of military equipment. The party that organised the revolution already has its own democratic structure that will be used to decide the next courses of action. Once the workers are in control of their workplace they can continue the same work while the party basically takes over the role of the government as long as it’s needed. Through its democratic structure decisions can be made on the order of which the current problems the people face can be addressed.
I’m no expert, so this is a run down of the events during a revolution as I understand it. The course of a revolution varies a lot depending on the class relations so a successful revolution in one country may not look the same in another. As I said, the first step is education and I’m still learning what the class relations look like in my own region, until then I can not exactly say what the revolution here should look like.
In general it should never be a bad idea for a worker to learn about their own company structure and the contradictions that exist within between the workers and the owners and shareholders of said company. This information can first help with unionising, and from it you can derive your negotiating power as a union against your boss. This is helpful in gaining ground on the wage/profit ratio, and later it will be essential for taking control of the company and making sure it keeps running.
I don’t really get your logic, tea rhymes with pee but I drink the former and not the latter. Both sentences have very different meanings. If you don’t understand what a sentence means then you just can ask. Also hexbear isn’t intended to mobilise anyone, it’s just a space where leftists can talk about life & politics freely.
Definitely. Most orgs in the West (that I know of) are at the moment focused mostly on education because it’s so lacking in our society
I actually see a lot of joy on hexbear especially in the trans community there :)
Living in a society as racist, classist and just plain cruel as the West can be very demoralising though so I don’t blame people for being doomerish about it. However the comments on Harris are mostly just funny jokes so I think I don’t really agree with your assessment.
Lol @ countries don’t exist. Death to America means death to its institutions and structures because they’re all inherently racist and imperialist and uphold class inequality.
Why would you expect a leftist community to not criticise a liberal politician? There are obvious ideological clashes between the two.
The solution leftists offer is to organise the working class against its oppressors. This is a tedious process because of the lack of knowledge the average person has around this topic (otherwise you wouldn’t have had to ask this question). The working class will always have their numbers in their favour, but in order to effectively overthrow the ruling class they need to understand the class relations in place. You can contribute by reading leftist literature on class relations and educating those around you. There are leftist reading groups in basically every city especially for this reason.
Different communities then I guess, I browse ‘all’ a lot.
I guess me being a mathematician makes me notice them more. I’ve seen many in several communities, but me being biased makes me wish there were more.
This meme is highly misinformed about how any of these academic subjects work though. (Meta)physicists and theologists don’t make claims, they research the consequences of certain assumptions. Most elementary sciences work that way.
Hormonal replacement therapy makes trans women lose their advantage regarding muscle growth so the only real ‘advantage’ they have to being trans is being taller on average, but cis women can be tall as well and that was never considered unfair. Also trans women have disadvantages because they often have to deal with surgeries meaning they can’t train for months and they face a lot of discrimination which can impact performance, training possibilities and income (which also affects training possibilities and time). Trans women have never been a threat towards women’s sports, the percentage of trans women with medals is less than that of cis women. Even if you remove the factor of discrimination then the advantage trans women have is no more than a cis woman who is born with very slow muscle acidification. Talking about actual unfair advantages, in many olympic sports you have to have rich parents to be able to get on an olympic level because training facilities are expensive and you (and your parents) need to have a lot of free time.
