@jemarcaxinto: I'm teaching a class on centering responsiveness, grounding, and figuring out your role in activism. It's PAY WHAT YOU CAN, meaning if you can only contribute 2 bucks great, if you want to contribute more, also great. But this class is for EVERYONE who is SERIOUS about doing the good and important work. I've taught this class for numerous activist groups around NY, and also taught this curriculum at institutions like Harvard. Virtual Class Details: "Make Good Trouble: Transforming Your Fear & Rage Into a Movement" June 28, 2025 12 PM EST - 2 PM EST Comment "MAKE GOOD TROUBLE" For the link and I'll DM you #hungergames #nokingsprotest #sunriseonthereaping #Revolution #Activism #Trauma #Traumahealing #Leftist #leftism #Liberals #transformativejustice #Nonbinary #Queer #BIPOC

I can't get on board with any Westerner who fantasizes about revolution. I've taken history classes. I certainly don't want a revolution lead by dummies who haven't read anything since Cliff Notes in junior high

I consider myself purely a progressive now cuz the left doesn't seem to understand that doing activism under an administration that won't send the Marines to our protests is easier than one that will.

I just posted on an MSNBC video that we should get away from having Hollywood celebrities be the main spokespeople for the party and they almost ran me out of the comments. I told them I'm a Democrat and voted for Kamala. They told me that's not possible and I'm lying.

I was with a group of people who went to Palestine to do some activism in the West Bank and there was this maoist girl who was shitting on anarchism. and while there was no formal political political affiliation for the group we were organizing with they do consensus based decisions making which is certainly anarchists in nature. which is all to say, we need some kind of left unity in order to make real progress

I wonder how much of this comes from generational separation. The passion and persistence that comes from young vision needs to be paired with wisdom and life experience from elders. We all see certain things clearly at different ages, and separating everyone by age from day 1 has done a disservice.

I left organizing for the same reason. I am still very much a communist but I am not into purity politics. In a group there are people who will have problematic beliefs and if you push all of them away you will find yourself very alone. We have to be willing to work with them and that also gives us an opportunity to talk with them and perhaps they will gain perspective or some kind of undersranding.

Was talking to a gay Trump supporter in the comments the other day and tbh, a lot of our beliefs ab how to improve gov are similar (term limits, money out of politics, etc). ppl for the most part want the same things but have dif approaches to how to get there based on how they were raised, income level, personal experiences, educational level, etc. it’s not a good strategy to go all these ppl=worthless and bad. A lot of those supporters are just not educated ab the reality of our gov. Yes, it’s no one’s obligation to educate ppl, but if you want change, you can’t hide from them and write them off because they make up a large amount of the working class. Especially if your movement truly is ab helping the little guy, that includes the little guys you don’t like.

Can we just…chop off whatever this cancer on the far left is from our Democratic Party? And then maybe the republicans can do the same with their far right insanity? The ONLY moral path is centrism. This isn’t an opinion, it’s objective fact. We exist in a republic by and for the people. Before the far left emerged, liberals managed to keep Roe solidly in place. Then this cancerous growth took over the brain space of left leaning people, and now we live in a far right dystopian because of it. We PREFER legal immigration. We RECOGNIZE the inalienable rights of women. We DON’T VERY MUCH CARE whether or not trans women can play in a girl’s baseball team. And we’re AGAINST terrorism. We also LOVE America because it is the first and only nation founded on liberty. Whatever brain rot Marxist nonsense has overtaken your bandwith — PLEASE invent your own party and stop asking any of us to join you. We don’t want to. We tried accepting some of your ideas, and they were toxic and corrosive and they DID NOT serve the public good. Now because of YOUR IDEOLOGY and YOUR ACTIONS, nearly all of our protections for our most vulnerable have been destroyed. Because you’re a product of a Russia/China op that uses social media to break people’s brains. You’re not some revolutionary. You’re a stooge. PLEASE go invent your OWN far left party and we as democrats will gladly continue to lose over and over and over again with the HOPE that other centrists might find their way free from the far right. But we’re going to lose based on MORAL purists, and not the accelerationist trash heap ideology you’ve been brainwashed into fostering. Your utopia is a myth, and it is predicted first and foremost on artificial hierarchies based on immutable characteristics. The far left is just as racist and sexist and exclusionary as the far right. You DOORKNOBS even managed to bury a black woman Vice President to PURPOSELY usher in Trump. Please, go away and never bother democrats again. We want nothing whatsoever to do with you.

The ideological purity is killing the left. The right does not care. They will accept literal schmex offenders into the highest positions but we can’t even accept people who think a little different but have the same goals. It’s exhausting.

As one of my polisci professors used to say, the political spectrum is actually a circle. Eventually the centrists are so centrist that they meet. And the far right and far left are so far that they start to look (and be) the same too.

I'm also at the point where I can't consider myself a leftist because of what the chronically online are doing. I was calling myself a Pragmatic Progressive, but then I watched a documentary on the Socialist mayors of Milwaukee, WI and apparently I'm a Sewer Socialist. My politics are based on theory and dreams of revolution, but on using the government to improve everyone's lives.

i actually got a zionist who had taken multiple trips to isreal to reflect on his beliefs. LITERALLY because in good faith, he asked what "queers for palestine" was all about and i explained and laid it out very nicely. and he agreed that what was happening to gaza and the west bank was deplorable. and he self reflected. being nice WORKS. obviously, do not be nice to ppl coming im bad faith, but ppl who are curious? BEING NICE WORKS

“For hatred doesn’t cease hatred, this is an old rule” Extreme emotions are the nervous systems emergency alarm, it’s hard to think clearly in those states. It is a sort of fight fire with fire scenario. How do you stop the negativite energy, well you pass it on No you have to transmute it with love. Love doesn’t exist in an alarmed state even if the alarm is very real, its a reflex. It’s funny to find out that the only thing to conquer is ourselves and that’s where the peace is even if the world is at chaos it’s not that one shouldn’t act its that it is wiser to act with a certain beat. Got to play it cool and smart can’t become like the monsters you’re trying to slay, that would mean that hate, prejudice, bigotry, blatant racism and sexism win in the long run. I think Alan Watts said it best when he said that it’s the puritans and the moralist who are the most mischievious trouble makers out of the lot. Some people can be saved they can learn and be more open some other people… well I predict violence and like a person throwing a tantrum in a room full of people it’s really hard to ignore violence and everybody gets dragged in. That’s why your message is so important. There should be more organizations it seems like in the left side of politics people are less organized because they agree less with each other, I’ve seen more online discussions and criticisms and actual communication about political theories. On the other side things seemed more blocked in and narrowed down to a definitive answer so there seems to be more organization. (I follow contrasting politically pages and read comments) They knew who they were voting for, without a doubt. Other people didn’t know wether or not to vote for kamala. Should I vote strategically? But sell out my ideals? What about the war? And so on, for some people the better choice was neither. And I don’t blame anybody for acting on what they believed but I find that we act too much on what we believe and that is the inherent problem in the first place, belief systems. We have to act on what is objectively happening not on what the narrarator of our mental filing cabinet is saying.
