/leftypol/ - Leftist Politically Incorrect

Lots of cities have leftist boxing clubs or self defense associations, might be worth a look, it also doubles as getting to socialize with like minded people so you can eventually find an org in which you can learn and be part of the struggle

Tasers are shit and illegal in a lot of places but I second you on the pepper spray rec, this shit is the bomb. Just gotta know how to use it.

>leftist boxing clubs or self defense associations
Like Unicorn Riot? That’s the single worst option. Just go to a regular boxing or MMA gym, it doesn’t matter that everyone is RW. That’s just the reality of those places

>>2789246
Like what?? From experience those groups are all right although your mileage may vary, the good thing is that it's fucking cheap because no one is trying to make money while the gyms will rob you blind

>I wish politicians would look out for miners
>And not just minors on an island somewhere
he's effectively saying that the whole 'esptein's island' controversy isn't as important of a scandal that it should supersede the interests and concerns of actual working class people. people will object to this by saying that this line is meant to downplay the importance of such indecent behavior by the wealthy elites, but in my mind he's saying that, in an ideal society, such a scandal would either not have taken place at all, or wouldn't dominate the headlines and network airtime over more pressing issues, which supports the point that the dude has working class interests at heart, and considers them to be of the highest priority in political discourse.
>Lord, we got folks in the street, ain't got nothin' to eat
>And the obese milkin' welfare
>Well, God, if you're 5-foot-3 and you're 300 pounds
>Taxes ought not to pay for your bags of fudge rounds
the imagery conjured here may be slapstick or comical to some, or even blatantly offensive, but it serves as a juxtaposition between two different negative outcomes that are the result of poverty, which we know is a symptom of the fallibility of capitalism. whether you're starving in the street or subsisting on low quality pastries composed of bleached and enriched flour and high fructose corn syrup, you're a victim of the aforementioned impoverishment that arises when corporate interests are given more precedence than the needs of the populace.
>Young men are puttin' themselves six feet in the ground
>'Cause all this damn country does is keep on kickin' them down
and then he segues into some lines that acknowledge the hardships that men face in our contemporary society, without pressing on any particular issue aside from suicide, which is more a negative outcome for men who are unable to find their way as a result of said issues, than a cause of anything.

All of this is reaching.

Besides, most of the American working-class isn't white, so why are we propping up a white guy as the "voice of American workers"?

>>2789527
>it's reaching because…because it just is, okay!
okay?
>Besides, most of the American working-class isn't white
what's race got to do with it? if you're working class in america to day, you're proletariat, regardless of race.
>so why are we propping up a white guy as the "voice of American workers"?
nobody's doing anything, I merely explained how the song could be interpreted as a pro working class song. do you mean to tell me that you think a white guy could never be propped up as "the voice of american workers"?

>>2789526
>he's effectively saying that the whole 'esptein's island' controversy isn't as important of a scandal that it should supersede the interests and concerns of actual working class people
No it's a double-entendre where he use multiple meaning of lookout to say "I wish they helped workers instead of diddling kids", he doesn't litterally means politicians shouldn't only look at that scandal

>>2789534
strange interpretation, but ok. I don't think we're in disagreement, the lines clearly point to the author's desire for politicians to "help workers" more than focus on a highly publicized scandal involving wealthy pedophile elites. surely, one way for a politician to do such a thing is by focusing the discourse around the interests and concerns of working class people, no?

Echt? Selbst da hätte ich erwartet, dass der Deutsche Goyim brav die Schnautze hält. Wurden nicht schon lauter alte Christliche Kirchen in Palästina durch die IDF zerstört? Gabs da keine Reaktion?

>you want your leaders to be Fascist because you want to feel like rebels
what if I think my leaders are fascist because they actually are and i don't in fact feel like a rebel but acknowledge that i'm a do nothing coward?

>>2789481
The fact that you aren’t in a camp and that your nation hasn’t imprisoned, exiled, or killed its political dissidents tells me that you must have one of the most ineffective groups of authoritarians ever. Again this literally confirms my view, you want your leaders to be Fascist because you want to feel like a rebel. You’re unwilling to acknowledge material reality, like every western leftist that’s why the western left is in the state it is.
My country is not Fascist, it’s a corrupt hybrid regime, but I still could be jailed for my real political opinions about the state religion. I could be murdered if I speak against certain political figures who might send party thugs to kill me me. Still, I do what I can within my limitations and that’s what most of us do here.

I’m going to give you the same advice the Vietnamese delegation gave the Weather Underground, donate whatever you can spare and write to your congressman. That’s it, that’s all anyone has asked from the western left.

>it amounts to the same thing, since the financial capitalists are the comprador booj in thrall to the imperial core while the indsustrial capitalists are the national booj who wanna develop the productive forces and exercise sovereignty over the natural resources. It basically is the modern equivalent of the difference between tories and patriots in 1776. Loyalty to the metropole of capital vs a national independence movement.

the thing about Sowell is he was a beast mode Marxist which makes his later work sting a bit.

Requests for US legal aid linked to Palestine activism far surpass pre-2023 levels
Palestine Legal also saw a spike in immigration-related requests after Trump returned to office and signed an executive order to target pro-Palestine student activists, leading to “a cascade of unlawful and cruel state-mandated kidnappings intended to intimidate and silence the growing student movement for Palestinian rights”, the group noted.

Just days before the US Supreme Court is set to hear arguments related to glyphosate’s health risks, the Environmental Working Group on Tuesday sued the Trump administration for unlawfully delaying its response to an EWG petition seeking stronger restrictions on “the most widely used herbicide in the United States and globally.”

US military service members will no longer be required to get annual flu shot

Southern Poverty Law Center charged with defrauding donors with payments to extremist informants
The Justice Department alleges the civil rights group defrauded donors by using their money to fund the very extremism it claimed to be fighting, with more than $3 million paid to informants through a now-defunct program to infiltrate white supremacist and other extremist groups. Prosecutors allege some of the money was used by extremists to carry out other crimes, but court papers did not include specific examples. “The SPLC was not dismantling these groups.

Erik Houdini: What is Praxis?: Becoming Activated
“Man can affect his own development and that of his surroundings only so far as he has a clear view of what the possibilities of action are open to him. To do this he has to understand the historical situation in which he finds himself: and once he does this, then he can play an active part in modifying that situation. The man of action is the true philosopher: and the philosopher must of necessity be a man of action.” — Antonio Gramsci
What's praxis? Like, for real though—be for real. What is this nebulous concept? Praxis is when your friend says, Hey, we want to do some kind of anti-American event for 4th of July, and you pivot to, Yeah, let's give the money to the Palestinian Red Crescent Society and a local immigration organization. And let's tie the struggles back to the Global South and the imperial core because we're all ultimately oppressed by the same oppressors: the capitalists. That's praxis. Praxis is the connections we make between people on individual levels as working-class individuals. It's staying back after the show is over and asking, Hey, does anyone need any help cleaning? Praxis is mutual aid in action. It's when you find out one of the homies hasn't been eating. You don't just say damn, that's rough. You start asking around. Can we get him on food stamps? Can someone help him navigate the Medicaid website? Can someone front groceries until we get it figured out? It's collectivized survival. It's pulling together the fragments of a busted welfare state and patching it up with your own labor and time. It's when the plaza gets skate-stopped, so you grab a crowbar, a bag of Quickrete, and the homies to tear that shit out at 3 AM. It's when you say, Yeah, we're taking $5 off the $15 show if you bring two cans of food. They've got to be good cans of food, no scum shit. And then all that money goes back to a local pantry. That's real mutual aid. That's real praxis.

I’m pro-China, but let’s drop the “China number one” posturing. Chinese leadership knows their military hasn’t been tested in modern warfare, which is why they tend to observe from a distance and adapt based on what they learn. It’s also why they keep their military relatively small. it’s a pragmatic approach. For the same reason,I don’t believe they’ll invade Taiwan, they’re not retarded like americans.
