The Panthers did free before school breakfast and after school babysitting and all sorts of actual community building like that. The PSL does protests and craft events and that's it. I guess providing consistent services is an order of magnitude more difficult than organizing marches but it just doesn't seem like the marches are getting us anywhere.

    ahck yeah, i was talking with some lad in an activism group and i'm like, are we suppose to have fun doing activism? we're exhausting all legal routes and working within the confines of our system, so that we know we have no other choice - but i honestly just feel like a liberal.

    was listening to proles of the round table with deathnography and he was saying "yeah the activism in hong kong was fun, and all the dude were like lowkey communists" and i'm like where is the fun, how do we have fun? thurston

    but ahck also stuck in the civility stage here

      The usa spent most of the last fifty years strengthening and expanding the police state and the prison system in part to crush anyone who strays out of the civility stage.
