  • why should I say anything? what I think they should or shouldn’t do means nothing, read my responses, I’m not telling you to show unbreakable faith in iran, hexbollah, or hamas, or to not believe that we are witnessing a loss.

    I called you out leaving such a ridiculous message during this immense tragedy. @cleveroleg left this message and he is right.

    Whether your analysis is correct or not, maybe not the best time to crow about how right you were and start calling people out, eh?

    I don’t think your analysis is correct but when you use a moment like this, to harp on about that? It’s stupid, it’s asinine, it’s miserable especially when we have people here who have family in lebanon. I’m going to have to go to prayer and see people weeping for their lost families, friends, their country. Get a grip comrade and don’t fucking worry about having ‘a point’.



  • pooh-poohing my concerns about the axis of resistance a week ago

    Am I still just a ‘doomer’ or did I have a point?

    What are you pointing out? people are dying? we are seeing evil at work, there is no point you are making, other than wanting to be vindicated. This is what you have to say, to offer, in times like this?

    how are you feeling now that Nasrallah and the rest of the entire Hezbollah leadership has been wiped out?

    terrible, the world is ending and I can only hope god saves them, they are stronger than you in every capacity. Your criticism means nothing because it critiques nothing. Saying, oh the axis should go all in, is not insightful. Being self-righteous about something so crude looks badly on you comrade







  • i’m just in a weird position in life where i feel my lack of social mobility and see people born to so much more than I was and feel paralyzed i guess? is god a white supremacist? why does it feel like every place that had the misfortune to be colonized is doomed to die like this. so many people hurt because they were born in a place that was too beautiful for them, for the bad luck of being born in a place near a beach. that’s all it took for americans (tho many others) to continuously destroy so many






  • The Young Lords tried doing something called “revolutionary machismo” and that was deemed as a failure strategy-wise.

    Although gratified that the party had thought to include gender at all, the Women’s Caucus began to question this point, arguing that “revolutionary machismo” was a non-sequitor, or even an oxymoron, designed to keep gendered hierarchy intact. As Morales writes, one woman pointed out that “It’s like revolutionary racism. It just doesn’t make sense.”

    At one of their first meetings, caucus members conducted a close reading of the 13-point program. When they came to point 10, the women laughed. It was obvious to them that this document was written by men. The idea of positive machismo made no sense. The word machismo implied aggression towards women. This work resulted in a “YLP Position Paper on Women.” It was published as a special insert in the September 25, 1970 issue of the Young Lords bilingual newspaper, Palante. Following the position paper, the leadership revised the 13-point program. The point on women was moved from point 10 to point 5. Machismo was no longer revolutionary. Instead, the Young Lords declared “Down with Machismo!”
