Everyone is more or less at risk of experiencing violence during their life. This is especially true for minorities, and as leftists in today’s political climate. The risk of violence will undoubtedly increase as political climates change, so we must be ready to defend ourselves, our comrades, our family and friends, and our communities.

I practise Krav Maga (I know) and have a limited background in wrestling, Karate, and Judo. It would be great to hear everyone’s thoughts on strategies and tactics for self-defence so we can help each other become more prepared to face violent situations.

If there’s enough interest in the topic I think it would be a good idea to start a community for self-defence.

    Salad, try to remember the basics of CQC.

    Press the action button to initiate a grab, then move the control stick in the direction you wish to throw the enemy.

              (A line that sounds like it could be right out of Das Kapital)

              “There’s no such thing as miracles or the supernatural, only cutting edge technology!”

                  I always forgot that the Dead-Cell operatives were OnlyFans simps and call her that lmao

                  But for a more heartfelt and close to home quote.

                  “Find something to believe in and find it for yourself. And when you do, pass it on to the future”. Metal Gear really did have some good anti-capitalist plot lines and quotes. Especially with Metal Gear 3 quite literally being, “CIA sucks, US government evil and corrupt, and the Boss was right”.

                    I take great pleasure in reminding rightoids who fawn over mgs that kojima is blatantly left leaning and all of the plots in some way condemn US foreign policy and/or imperialism.
