Not to mention the defanging of the party by reformists and eurocommunist revisionists. Any decent communist party that can get 30% of the vote and isn't trying more actively to undermine the state is doing something wrong.
Implying God isn't communism.
Damn, why didn't he just create the heavens tho?
I mean that sounds literally like one of those options. Just trying to destroy the old conception of whiteness without replacing it with an actual culture. Tolerance and remembrance are not a national identity and just reforming whiteness as if it's an actual identity like german which could be reformed to remember its collective sins. Also reconnecting with our European roots literally does create a new identity. Europeans aren't homogenous and America would be a mix of all of them instead of an assimilated culturally homogenous white settler state with the only diversity being between the settler and the settled. Also how are you gonna say we have no material connection to our fucking grandparents and great grandparents? That's dumb as fuck.
I mean yeah but the alternatives are destroying the settler identity of American whiteness and not replacing it with any cultural or national identity which seems obviously doomed or not destroying it at all which preserves the ideological roots of American racism which is obviously antithetical to what the left wants.
For sure, being in Chicago I've gone to both classes with like 40 kids and classes with like 15 and the difference is staggering.
I definitely understand the concerns but I think the answer is pretty simple, let people choose, help them understand where they came from and let them forge that new identity with the millions of other former Americans. I mean most nations aren't actually ethnically homogenous, for instance, on my fathers side we're from Poland but when we left Poland was still in control of vast territories to the east and he was actually born in the Russian empire near the border of modern day Lithuania so he probably was part Lithuanian, this isn't even getting into Jewish ancestors which we're like sure 90% we have since a lot of Jews assume we're Jewish based on how we look.
Ethnicity has never been what defines nationality or culture. Like even with everything I just talked about with the polish side of my family I've always had far greater connections to my Irish roots on my mother's side. We pretty much get to choose what national myth we buy into and it doesn't matter what blood quantum we have.
I think we greatly reduce emphasis on things like math, reduce structure, reduce class size and put as much as we can onto letting kids best express themselves by exposing them to as wide an array ideas and occupations as we can. That means gardening, factory work, bureaucratic work as well as poetry, philosophy, history and politics. Getting people to grasp the world and make an informed choice about what attracts them and what they actually enjoy doing (as opposed to what makes them the most money.) is the first step of divorcing education from the commodified society we currently find ourselves in. Of course that history education has to include decolonization and I think one of the most important parts of that decolonization has to be destroying the identity of "American" and supporting the re-embracing of the european cultures and nations white Americans came from. In essence, consciously rejecting the assimilation of our ancestors into this colonial caste of whiteness and remembering that we have a culture beyond consumption and conquest. Oh yeah also teach kids gun safety and basic survival skills for when the NATO-Russian alliance starts bombing us and supporting right wing militias.
Yeah especially with the stability of cadre thing that he introduced which basically banned purges and made a bunch of bureaucratic positions lifetime appointments the whole formula for how to keep the bureaucracy even kinda under control was destroyed. Gorby had I think the exact wrong ideas for his time period, he wanted the USSR to be an equal alliance of social democracies as opposed to a more centralized federation of socialist states and he threw himself into that mission whole hog without having fixed the economy. Like you can say the USSR should have been more democratic but making it more democratic before you make sure there's economic stability was suicide.

I'd say C but with D as well. If people are active user's and care enough to use bots I'd say we should at least give them a chance to come forward, and if they do it again we ban the fuck out of them.
Something being a coping mechanism isn't necessarily a good thing. Source: Me cutting myself and binging and purging for years
Yeah it's a real solution to the issue of concentration. Glad we finally found one.
It's not a cage it's an indoor fence that we keep people in. Imagine it like a mini-camp 🙂
He's going to have to explain to his grandchildren that orange man was bad.
All the stoners coping in the comments lmao
Fr I can't imagine any serious communist choosing to get involved with fucking red guards in America. Like FTP and the United Panther Movement exist if you insist on being a maoist.
That's really great!
Around 45 minutes to 1 hour of cycling, at least a few sets of crunches and some pushups or smaller weightlifting exercises (I only have 20s at the moment) I also try to work in a few of these yoga stretches that help build core strength but only if I have time.
