Ive noticed how Quickly Xenophobic, Fascistic, anti-semitic and anti-communist Europeans when they see Brown Baddies, and ebil mongol orcs/s. Ive just watch a video on youtube about Ukrainian Vs arab refugees, immediate fascist rhetoric coming from europeans telling how europe is 'civilized', then I saw a L*thuanians say europe must defend its 'civilized' continent from Evil 'Communist Orcs', I notice how hitler speeches on youtube filled with fascistic european comments praising hitler and i remember years ago on youtube, one comment that germany being ripped apart or loosing WW1 is blamed on the jews
Ewwrope.
It may help to examine how the white petty bourgeoise is doing. From what I can tell, Europe’s small businesses are doing worse than usual, which would be unsurprising given the pandemic and the Russo‐Ukrainian war. Hence, petty bourgeois whites may be turning more and more to neofascism; they want to obstruct Arabic refugees and other potential competitors who may resort to starting microbusinesses in order to survive.
A bunch of really valuable young workers are quitting at my employer because the owners flat out refuse to respect us workers. With the way things at this place have already been falling apart with a handful of good people on board I'm really excited about what the future brings.
Organise them!
I'm carefully dropping breadcrumbs. It's just tricky because the owners are physically present and obviously vehemently anti-worker, and due to some, let's say familial relationships in the company, me obviously leading a union drive could backfire into my personal life.
Tricky but I'd do the same.
I may have made a mistake filing taxes when I migrated some years ago (because fuck me taxes can be hard) and the state is sending me a letter about FUCKING TAX EVASION ON GODDDDDD like I'm Shell or something
[Redacted] [redacted] [redacted] wankers
Now now, if you were like Shell, they would be too afraid to touch you, and instead would vouch to give you a tax break
I wouldn't be mad if they send me a letter saying I made a mistake and to fix it. I don't even mind paying taxes back.
But they call it tax evasion and slap a 10% extra fine on it. If I wasn't radicalized already this surely would make a difference.
I hope you all have a nice week :D
why are you a phone?
The phone brand copied me
Niger has suspended the export of gold and uranium to France this Sunday with immediate effect
Jesus Christ, I'm getting brainworms reading those comments
what did you make me read? my whole day ruined. mark nsfw for reddit links
Least disgusting redditors
This was a heinous thread full of liberal brainrot wtf 🤮
If anyone didn't know (and probably to no one's surprise), the soft drink leninade is not made by a company with any kind of radical politics, it's just a gimmick
It is a canon event every baby leftist has to go through.
Are you calling me a baby
It’s not an insult, it just means someone who is relatively new to radical politics. All they’re saying is it’s a sort of rite of passage to find out leninade or something like that exists and be let down that they aren’t actually based, just as all spider-people’s pig dads die.
Its a canon event 🗿
Never heard of Leninade before, the fact that it exists is hilarious
I’ve had stalinade, but not leninade. I didn’t expect it to be more than a gimmick.
GoW Ragnorok calling out the shitlibs
DDR born Gen Xer hot takes from today:
Gorby was actually alright cause he let the people vote for "none of the above."
DDR bad cause your bachelor's thesis topic was assigned to you and you couldn't choose where you worked.
Did you guys know that there was a Mexican Grizzly some time ago and it became extinct a few centuries ago?
Makes sense. Brown bears are quite an ubiquitous species
I think it'll never stop being surreal to me to see people from Mastodon instances comment on posts here
Whenever someone types stfu think of the Southern Tenant Farmers Union, I know I will
(Settlers excerpt)
So I started my job at the Union this week. So far I'm liking it. It is a weird mix of being a progressive org while at the same time being stuck in the 80s it seems.
being stuck in the 80s it seems.
In what way?
The amount of paper files often send by post in between members, union and other instances is immense. The operating systems look like they haven't seen an update since 2003. The overall look of the building my department is in, lol. It has this 80s office look all over it.
It just looks outdated. Nothing wrong with that, I'd rather have more resources going to the members and the front lines. But still, I sometimes look out of place with modern clothes in between the design of the office. I still like the job very much and I'm happy to be there.
Just about to finish reading 'Survival of the richest by douglas rushkoff', it's a decent contemporary tech critique but oh boy i have to put down the book sometimes because of the cringe idealist comments made by the author. Really makes me appreciate Lenin writing style more and more.
because of the cringe idealist comments made by the author
Any bangers?
He mentions capitalism a lot during the book (also some subtle anti-china rethoric like any self respecting liberal of course) but he not once mentions anything related about relations of production, he just criticizes the infinite growth property of capitalism and ties it a lot with the contemporary tech industry. The usual shallow criticism coming from libs who know about capitalism just from the osmosis of living on it and haven't really made any real study of it.
This paragraph is just peak pseudo-intellectual liberalism lmao, not technically his take but there is no debunking of the comment later which makes me think he actually believes it
Thanks!
I'm already thinking about book 2 even though I haven't finished the first one yet. Miu Iruma is an Honored Matre now guys.
line I just wrote (this is supposed to be danganronpa)
There's this news article over here about a woman who was working at a supermarket in town for over 16 years. Due to the company's decision to change into a franchise model (which has sparked many, many, maaaany strikes already) she decided to finally quit. As a goodbye present to the company, she has now organized one final strike lmao. She said: 'I wanted to hurt the company once more'.
Omega based
Watched Barbie. Sort of radical, capitalist washing ending though. I had fun.
did anyone see Jimmy Dore and RFK interview today?
So did hexbear federate with us or what?
I think they plan to federate within a few days
Can anyone give me the z library link, if they have it?
