Inhaling bottles of paracetamol so I get better at maths. Wish me luck chat

More the way admins are running things.

It’s far easier to convince people who are new to socialism to join a community on a site they already use then migrate to a whole new website. You’re not thinking practically. The point is to maintain a presence wherever people are, not to form some secret society off in the corner. It makes sense for a niche fandom or some weird legally grey activities but for actually trying to build an international workers movement is self-defeating.

We have to consider our material conditions - this is where people are communicating and spending their time. The dedicated people will come here but where will the the ones who were more passive go? The people on the path to becoming dedicated and the people who may not have much revolutionary potential but would have repeated our rhetoric to other “normies”.

Obviously a space like this also existing is a good thing and should keep existing but to suggest we should all just flee the spaces where people are is just wrong. We need to be organising our in the open, in the streets, not hiding in some guy’s basement.

Idk, all these books are pretty old and (I think they’ve been written by authoritarians). I say we just wing it and hope for the best. /,s
