I'm yet to decide on a topic, but having spent a little time on RedSails, it's quite clear that the levels of writing that get posted there vary a lot. I'm not really engrained into any leftist circles outside of an IRL party I'm being vetted for. Has anyone else here contributed essays to any place?

Once I get something written, what is a good way to shop it around to get posted somewhere cool? Anyone have any general experience like this?

Edit: been talking with a comrade and I think I have my topic! The rise of "christian nationalism" as a consequence of alienation/anticommunist ideology, and the parallels between the current movement and its targeting of trans people/leftists and the witch hunts of the 16/1700s in America.

Edit 2: Hot damn I just cranked out a thousand words and feel good about this so far! If anyone wants to take a peek, DM me!

    I plan on self-publishing an essay on a third rail topic. I'm doing it mainly to get obsessive ideas off of my chest for therapeutic reasons, so I happen not to care much if other people read it. If anyone gains something from it that's a bonus. I'll be using this pseudonym so hopefully that will protect me from most deranged chuds.
