Ngl I Feel Like A Lot Of The 'online Left' Is Less Focused On Actually Fighting For Socialism, And More

ngl i feel like a lot of the 'online left'™ is less focused on actually fighting for socialism, and more focused on adopting the radical aesthetic without engaging in any real world activities that would further leftist causes.

like, prices of everyday goods are at an all time high, we are on the brink of ecological collapse, fascism is on the rise across the globe, and marginalised people are being stripped of their rights every single day.

and yet, while a lot of people are actually getting out there and taking direct action, organising, etc., some of us are too busy just ranting about how the world's going to shit, or arguing amongst ourselves on twitter, or just reading theory without applying said theory to the real world.

don't get me wrong, social media is an important vehicle for the spread of leftist ideas, theory is absolutely vital for understanding how the current systems operate, and our anger is completely justified. but none of these things can change anything without mass movements across the globe taking direct, revolutionary action.

basically, theory is nothing without praxis, and vice versa.

anyways, unhinged rant over lmao.

gonna go grab some breakfast :)

Everyone who trots out that "the Soviet Union decriminalized homosexuality in 1917!" factoid as "proof" that the USSR was queer-friendly should be legally obligated to then say how long that lasted

Burn flags. Rip flags. Tread on a flag with your boots. Slash a flag to pieces with a dagger. Stomp on a filthy seal. Send flags down to hell
