I've gotten to meet a few people from here irl and they were all awesome, I'd love to meet more of our comrades and I expect there's a number of us who feel that way. Not would it be cool to hang out but as much as we wish it were posting isn't praxis however meeting offline makes it much easier to actually accomplish something. My thought was either a sticky thread or new com. People who are down to meet can post their nearest major city and then handle everything else through DMs, that should keep the doxing to a minimum. Anyone else interested in the idea or am I just being dumb?

    I was part of a cth offshoot discord for a sec where people talked about irl stuff but shit quickly hit the fan to the tune of high school level drama

      Why is this so common, leftists, especially more lib ones, can be so cliquey and catty. I've had so many Social Democrats join socialist spaces and just act so ridiculously counterproductive. Idk about y'all but when that happens I'm still too patient because I want to radicalize them even more but it never works; they just end up blowing things up

        Death drive. Unconsciously these people don’t want socialism to succeed because deep down they actually like capitalism (because it’s still working for them on some level). I guess I’m included here since I’m posting on hexbear rather than [redacted].

          Yeah doomjak

          I've had social democrats care more about getting in my pants and then blow up fledgeling groups when I rebuff them; and respectfully it's always well off fuckers. Hoping PSL makes it different around here inshallah-script

        Idk how true it is, but I've also noticed the that the more lib someone is the more likely they are to be cliquey. It's really odd.
