I don’t know anything about that, I have an acquaintence who also uses GrapheneOS and has helped me get it set up

The major contradictions have to do with labor bureaucracies that emerge as a function of organizing labor within a system that down to its very core exploits labor. Unions are not revolutionary formations which seek to abolish the class based caste system of capitalism. Some of the things that a union might do for their members might be bad for the class in general, as it privileges workers in the union without necessarily showing class solidarity. As a rule if thumb, I think: what is good for the union isn’t necessarily good for the working class, but what is bad for the union is always bad for the working class. You can be in a union and be a communist, honestly i think this obsession with having the perfect line on every issue is a kind of defeatism (this isn’t a criticism, just an aside, don’t mind me).

Graphene os, I’m typing this on a pixel 4xl with graphene os and its my favorite phone ever

I agree, I have been saying this since the beginning of the conflict, and I’m pretty sure there are plans to do the same in Pakistan.

Its also possible that the US is just letting the Ukrainians believe they will get an ethnostate like Israel, there is no reason to believe the US is even capable of holding up their end of that deal, let alone that they would.

Fellow graphene os user and I fucking love it

Cool video. I couldn’t understand anything nelson mandela said because of the music volume but I’m sure it was very based

Omg guise tankies are so cringe, I mean Nazis are evil and stuff but tankies are. just. so. cringe

monarchists are just inbreeding apologists

I can contribute, as I can build bots and shit. I can’t write worth a damn though.

I won’t lie to the working class like the right does. But any tools that could be used to educate I’ll be on board.

Love the Dresden Dolls reference for your Username

Re Discord, I’m in a Marxist bookclub server on discord and people are very hesitant to try anything else. Its kind of disappointing. The owner of the server says it will be fine because it isnt a “community server” but the way discord won’t run without google play services on android concerned the hell out of me, and now I won’tinstall it. Going to try and find communities in federated spaces and elsewhere, and maybe I’m just paranoid, but to me when 1/10 avowed communists cares about privacy and security while the other 9 use reddit, Facebook, twitter, etc., we are one “Palmer Raid” away from serious consequences

Stop using google, disable JavaScript, use privacy browsers, use a VPN + adblock, but then there’s always your phone. I use graphene os, but dumb phones too.

I mean that’s what I’m doing, maybe its not enough, maybe its a lot of overkill but yeah I’m trying to degoogle my life and its difficult

Learn to code

I went to a codingbootcamop a couple of years ago and got hired shortly after I graduated. Gave myself a 20k raise. My friends and I play elden ring all day and get paid. My friend who inspired me to get into tech makes like double my salary and just bosses around engineers all day. Last week her boss told her to be less intimidating, then gave her a raise. Its not for everyone and there are never guarantees but Ive learned a ton of shit in the last couple of years, bought a house and a new car. I had to cash out my 401k to live off of while I was going to school, so I was lucky to have a little bit sacked away even if I had to quit my job to get to it.

Otherwise you could start a painting company or something, its not easy but you can make good money by just being able to like talk to people and get jobs.

I don’t have a strategy guide but I could tell you what I know about those two things

Yeah 2016 when the US went from secretly funding Ukrainian Nazis to openly funding them

Literally every left space that I am in: online, IRL and blended, there are people posting and ranting about V*ush and people who are like “who is Vaush?”

So yeah, passing around screen shots of his intentionally controversial takes, and creating a space for sharing them is giving his ideas a platform. If we just ignored him then he would just migrate to the right, like he is going to do anyway in the next 5 - 10 years if not earlier.

Peace and love but I dont get it, what’s the point? Do you really need to like share in the promotion of his brand of controversy? To create a space for it? These things help him.

Looks like people who listen to drain gang, dg

Why do people still use reddit at all? Especially for lefty shit?

Let’s create a community to promote the shitposts of this professional troll, amateur pedophile. Let’s platform his horrible ideas so that more people see them, that will show him!

Maybe, but Morrowind was way more open world than Skyrim. There’s def a lot to be said for BotW as inspiration for a new generation of open world games. But I think the Elder Scrolls games still beat botw to the punch. If anything Morrowind was too open world. Just my opinion
