  • yeah exactly, it seems like things are not bad enough for unions to completely turn their back on the government and burn all bridges, same with greens and socialists

  • I did however like their wish to become a bit more radical with the protests because holding up some quirky signs every month will probably not save our rights and our own party is not doing much different (insert Lenin’s What To Do quote).

    but isnt it more than just a protest, because its also a strike? the way to make it more radical would be to hold an indefinite strike, but that is something for the unions to decide

  • what is the base for your analysis here? is the richest person in the world sieg heiling on a national stage not enough antisemitism for you?

  • You’d do well to point out which part is problematic here

    you already know the problematic parts. to reply to your most egregious one: just because zionists exist doesnt mean jewish people arent oppressed all of a sudden.

    here should’ve been some form of discussion, as the name @askchapo implies there will be.

    nobody owes you a discussion. get over yourself

  • This comment was pretty helpful for me https://hexbear.net/comment/6065831

  • You are conflating Judaism and Zionism though. You were banned because you were saying bullshit pulled from thin air. Do some self crit

  • another thought i had: airplanes

  • a lot of smaller coffee places and restaurants also have just one gender neutral restroom to save space

  • hexbear is a broad marxist forum. lemmy.ml is even broader leftist

  • isnt that just lemmy.ml or hexbear or lemmygrad?

  • making notes is usually the best. for some popular materials there are also usually study guides with questions to help you test your understanding. personally i just highlight interesting passages

  • undermines the anti-capitalist messaging a little bit when its on the front page of one of the richest people on the planet dont you think?

    this is essentially the "if you dont like capitalism why do you exist in it" argument. i dont see the point in being a purist when it comes to communications, it would just be impossible to build a movement and grow. sure there are risks associated with it, but they are fairly low in the west.

  • i dont really understand how you propose promoting an org or doing mass communications. by that logic no org member should own a phone because it could be traced, or because its produced by capitalist businesses.

  • There isn’t really a good reason to spend resources on a platform that barely has any people on it.

  • My org has our website, flyers on a weekly basis and does stalls at bigger events AND posts about it on mainstream social media. I don’t see a problem with it

  • How the hell do you scientifically measure what is casual sex and what is not

  • Do you want me to pull usage statistics for mastodon vs mainstream social media?

  • Nobody uses mastodon. Orgs use platforms where they can reach an audience

    Why did socialist governments take out IMF loans in the 1980s?

    I noticed that several socialist countries took out loans from the IMF (Yugoslavia, Poland, Romania) even though there was an understanding that the IMF is a predatory organisation. I assume it is connected to the wave of liberalisation in the 1980s, but would be interested in a more concrete breakdown of the logic and context behind it, or articles/links on the topic.

    The International Court of Justice (ICJ) begins two days of hearings to consider Nicaragua’s request that emergency measures be imposed on Germany over its support for Israel’s war on Gaza.
