zizek is a right hegelian and a fucking moron
a mental health community would be great but imo it would need pretty thorough moderation. like, i currently engage with a lot of mental health spaces and have moderated them before and i gotta say it can get real bad real fast even in the most supportive communities.
i'd prefer it to not be strictly treatment-related just on the basis that this is an anti-capitalist site and i'd hope we can have nuanced critiques of psychiatry here, but ultimately i think just having a space for mentally ill people to talk about their experiences and vent (within reason) is good. solidarity in mental health struggles has always been one of the most important things for me and destigmatization is necessary on the left just as much as everywhere else.
nice w/ moretankiechapo
it's great. there's actually a decent amount of anticapitalist films with fairly wide releases (even more that are indie), but a big problem a lot of them run into is the fact that they don't have someone saying, as explicitly as possible, "capitalism fucking sucks" in the film leads people to co-opt it into their own shit. i guess a good example of that would be they live and to a lesser degree brazil and american psycho. some people are so lib-brained they don't even realize snowpiercer is anti-capitalist though so lmao.
this really doesn't make me feel great as a trans man, to be honest.

waiting on our c/brutalism
having basic human compassion is faulty logic. checkmate leftists
mod elections would definitely be beneficial imo. specifically for individual communities too (which as of right now cannot be created without admin assistance, as far as i know), i hold no ill will against the current mods but i'd definitely prefer a democratic process here. obviously i don't think it'd be immediate (there's a lot going on right now and this definitely isn't their top priority, i get that) but in the coming weeks, or even months, once we see how things pan out it would definitely be good.
and like someone else said, obviously it'd be better to get to know the people here first so we can have a decent perspective on who would be responsible and transparent, well-meaning mods for communities in the first place. this is definitely something for the future but i hope it doesn't get forgotten down the line.
