Idk why I’ve been doing this to myself but I’ve been looking thru some general leftist tags on here and the amount of ppl on here who claim some left title bc they don’t like the US government but it’s clear from their beliefs and politic that they still completely parrot the unceasingly fascist and imperialist US state line is so disheartening. To be a leftist you do have to read theory, you do have to be active in your community and aid in creating dual power, you do have to be anti-imperialist, and you do have to be critical of the US and western powers news and claims on socialism and China. If you are not actively challenging the status quo (and everything the US stands for) you are abetting it. For more experienced organizers it’s extremely clear who LARPs as far left online and who actually engages with their community and discusses politic beyond the internet.
And lastly if ur a USAmerican learn about the black panther party, There is no reason to be a US leftist and not know about them, their history, their politic, and how the gov targeted them. And if u try to say sm bs in my comments abt the BPP you are anti-black and still struggling to dissect western racist propaganda and I will not b dealing with you. Anyway read Black Against Empire ❤️
