✏ Rules

  1. DO NOT DOXX YOUR KIDS - Seriously, use an alt for this comm or keep it vague; otherwise we’re centralizing info about everyone’s kids into a single place that can be easily focused on.
  2. No jokes about dead kids - I don't care how much the romanovs deserved it, or how right John Brown was, save it for another comm.
  3. No antinatalism struggle sessions

Using this as an opportunity to raise awareness about TankieTube having the professionally narrated copy of Blackshirts and Reds available here.

Tell your friends. Tell your enemies. Tell your obstetrician.

Edit: and The Assassination of Julius Caesar too.

This is a funny bit, I'll allow it, for now.

Does Parenti have kids? Are they cursed to be libs like so many Marxist writers?

Michael Parenti has one son, Christian Parenti, who appears to be doing just fine (I've only seen the wiki page, i hope I don't get proven incredibly wrong 🙃)

Haven't kept too much up to date with Christian, but I think he has had some reactionary takes after covid. But he also has capitalized on Lin Manuel Miranda's popularity of Hamilton by trying to pretend that Alexander Hamilton is a left wing radical.

He actually is a bit off the rails regrettably

Christian Parenti is Michael's son and has some reactionary takes and positions. He seems to align with Max Blumenthal quite often.
