How pro-🇺🇦 are you? (🟦🟩🟨🟧🟥)

🟦The Donbas War was a 🇷🇺 invasion
🟨Joining EU/NATO is a right
🟩🇺🇦 has a legitimate claim to ☢️
🟦🇷🇺 has committed war crimes in 🇺🇦
🟦🇷🇺 is doing a genocide in 🇺🇦
🟦Strikes in 🇷🇺 are justified
🟦🇷🇺's casus belli/"peace terms" are unacceptable

@cybermaenad I've also been reading some Epicurus/Lucretius recently, which is interesting

I want to read more of the Greeks

[John Merfold @JMerfoldProle]

W books or something idk

[Natalia ☭ @cybermaenad]

9 books I like

[John Merfold @JMerfoldProle]

@cybermaenad Oh sure they have but like, I only had 9 spots, and I mostly post about politics on here, where I am John Communism

Most of the other ones are other history books (Orwell's Down and Out, for instance), lots and lots of random articles and such, and fiction

[John Merfold @JMerfoldProle]

@NasrynAD @the92ndone @lyrasie What it needs to break with capitalism is to break with the union and party bureaucrats and start facilitating independent action of the proletariat as a class

The conditions to make revolution aren't there. The conditions to make those conditions for rev., however, may be there

[John Merfold @JMerfoldProle]

@cybermaenad Danke

@Durenbal @Clinton2028 @Broidefkwts @tricky2386 Who said nothing matters?

[John Merfold @JMerfoldProle]

@jackreachervert @Clinton2028 @Broidefkwts @tricky2386 Either for nothing or for everything

[John Merfold @JMerfoldProle]

@ActuCenter Good. More!

[John Merfold @JMerfoldProle]

@mrcrevleft1917 One of Stalin's better analogies imo (amongst his better/earlier stuff) was describing the proletariat and the bourgeoisie as opposing armies, with the parties at their heads as the general staffs
We wouldn't describe the soldier of an opposing army as being within our army camp

[John Merfold @JMerfoldProle]

@NasrynAD @the92ndone @lyrasie Of course. That and what I said are both true

[John Merfold @JMerfoldProle]

@NasrynAD @the92ndone @lyrasie The time is almost always ripe for protests. Protests happen constantly.
Occupations? Revolutionary calls? Mass strikes? It is not fetishising the past to recognise that the conditions for that does not exist (yet) here.

And definitely not yet there for proletarian revolution

[John Merfold @JMerfoldProle]

"On the frontlines, workers and students should also be organised—into committees of self-defence, and from them battalions and divisions which can respond to the demanding marching of the police in kind, and with even greater ferocity."

Tldr, fight back
