!labour@hexbear.net is a union / labour organizing specific comm.

Any syndicalist comrades who want to work with me on this comm are also welcome. DM me and we’ll figure it out.

Hexers, what kind of content / resources do you want to see in c/labour? I'm thinking guides, news, pro-union art, propaganda, and memes.

Let's make one big comm for one big union.

:iww: :sabo: :big-bill:.

    Just realized that the Talibans have been applying protracted people's (reactionary people are still people) war strategy for decades and we're now seeing its success.

    edit: just realized that this is not the megathread

        PPW is a Maoist strategy based on the experience of the Chinese Civil War and later the Viet Nam War, whereby an insurrectionary movement based in rural areas fights a long-term guerilla war of attrition against a central enemy. The thing idk most about is how popular the Taliban are among Afgahanistan, as popular support was a central PPW thesis a lot of the time, but OP is kinda correct

          NATO sources often puts blame the Afghan people on just being backward on why Taliban have any support. I'm reserving judgements on the specifics of Afghanistan politics, but from what I've known the Kabul government is corrupt, inefficient, and its governor are mostly made up of former warlords installed to power. I guess that makes the Taliban looks like a force of stability in comparison.
