Half the reason kids have the damn food is to kill the main recruiting tool of the black panthers
I would like to mention though, that I was critiqued by (western) MLs and (Western/Southern American) Trotzkists for advocating for kitchens for all and social programs which ensure food security esp. for kids and some parts of the working class. Why? Cause “Marxism is revolutionary and revolution doesn’t happen by creating food kitchens and food donation places.”
“Marxism is revolutionary and revolution doesn’t happen by creating food kitchens and food donation places.”
When we were doing mutual aid during the pandemic, the easiest way to get your foot in the door for Marxism was when you were the friendly person handing a crate of food, not the scowling weirdo on the keyboard.
Even the cartels understood this lol. This is why a lot of poor communities support them despite their deranged evilness. At the end of the day, no matter how just and moral your cause is, humans have to eat. If your cause is too high and mighty to feed others, then you can’t complain when they choose the other options
