my point is that it doesn't matter at all
we are barely past the starting gun of communism
the generations before us (in the west) got complacent and dropped the fucking ball
at this moment, having anarchists as allies can only benefit the working class, they have better support networks, making a real difference to people's lives on the ground
we can deal with our differences when we aren't completely outnumbered and outgunned by the overt fascists who are trying to kill us, and the movement dead
and make no mistake, i will probably be in my sixties by the time that fucking happens, and you in your forties
it's 4am for me dipshit, you expect me to be organizing when everyone is asleep?
holy shit you fuckers are a complete joke
make a play at me being a furry next, that'll play well with the reactionaries you're deperate to tailism into joining our side
i'm literally trans you fucking shitbag
or do you not recognise the flag in my god damn avatar
i'm also poor as shit, but you don't care about that do you?
it's all fucking national essentialism to your kind

Sorry, not as familiar with that flag. I didn't mean to offend in that way.
I don't think it's fair for you to critique organizing efforts in the U$ as scathingly as you have given the deficiencies in the UK movement. If there's a better way to phrase that, I'm happy to edit or change it.
i'm also poor as shit, but you don't care about that do you?
I'd very much like to point out that you're free with excuses for yourself, but basically spat on me earlier saying I should go outside.
Are you the only one with valid reasons?
it's all fucking national essentialism to your kind.
I can't tell China, or the UK, how to pursue their revolution, because I don't know the conditions there. You can't tell me, because you don't know.
We're clear that this is throwing stones from a glass house, right?
The UK and the U$ are intermingled in the same gross colonial-imperial mess. You being from the country that starved Inda isn't better than me being from the U$ with it's myriad crimes.
I do not give the tiniest shit about what you think about anything.
I know, that's why you ducked my points earlier. You're more interested in throwing insults than anything else.
my party is meh tbh, but better than having no party at all, larper
i also do work with mutual aid orgs that, you know, actually help people, as opposed to sniffing their own farts about foreign policy they will never be in a position to materially impact in any way.
And I've donated to local food bank charities, glad to see we're on the same page.
I dunno I think dismissively quoting 19th century political philosophical divisions in response to someone pointing to the importance of real-world on the ground mass organizing is firmly in the realm of idealism.
The science of revolution requires a grounding in the conditions of the working class and an aptitude for organizing a mass base. Many anarchists are far ahead of many Western MLs in this respect, as being a Western ML is unfortunately often treated more like an identity or club rather than an activity or life dedication or science.
Whether they're all-in on China or think that Xi is the anti-Christ, the end result is exactly the same: absolutely nothing whatsoever. There isn't a local left, much less a national left; certainly there isn't anything that anybody could seriously call an international movement. The opinions of random westerners mean absolutely nothing to the CCP. Fixating on what we have zero influence over is wholly unproductive.
Maybe in 20 years we'll have cobbled together a movement that Beijing thinks is even worth offering a nod to, but right now we're a bit too irrelevant to worry about our place on the global stage.

What charity masquerading as "mutual aid" should I be taking part in?
it's 4am for me dipshit, you expect me to be organizing when everyone is asleep?
holy shit you fuckers are a complete joke
make a play at me being a furry next, that'll play well with the reactionaries you're deperate to tailism into joining our side
What the fuck did you want me to do then? Here I am standing outside, like you told me to.

Wait, you're fucking British?
Why do you have the gall to comment on material conditions, or how I should be organizing a continent away?
Maybe take the fucking terf log out of your own eye first.

until your mods take pity on you i guess
We're clear that this is one-sided aggression, right?
You're trying to be as mean to me as you can be, given the (intentionally) limited information that you have available.
Do you get the impression that I'm trying the same?
It is for you. What url are you on?
You'd only get banned for being an asshole, is that a win for you?
i don't give a sit about being banned from the larper instance lmao
what, like 5% of you at most are in an org of any kind?
You skipped over that whole comment didn't you?
Since you keep editing, I'll just copy the whole thing.
What organizing is happening in the UK that you feel comfortable with this level of pride in your work?

I'm glad you have the available time for charity work, I unfortunately don't.
Or are you the only person who gets to have excuses?
deleted by creator

Are you the only one who gets to have good excuses?
