Your last part reminds me of my childhood friend where my group of friends and I used to high out at in high school. He lives in a ridiculously large villa in a post neighborhood. We were outside playing some soccer and we had the cops called on us lol. Someone reported a disturbance in the neighbourhood.

I tell you what, the cops never showed up when dealers and crack heads terrorized my hood lol.

Be outside. It is good for you and your family.

There's this Dutch internet marxist called Left Laser who visited a podcast made by some douchy right wing news outlet and he got ambushed about October 7th but still managed to come out on top. He's now doing a reaction type of stream on youtube about it.

Sometimes leftist activism feels so terminally online lol. Like, I always imagine myself trying to show it to my dad who has been working in a warehouse for 30 years and I just know he wouldn't even care about it in the slightest. Like how are obscure internet beefs going to build class consciousness.

That's a rough situation to be in. It's the same in our healthcare system which people often brag about being cheap as well. Yes, it might be cheap and a lot of things are free. But they are so overworked and understaffed due to years of budget cuts and lay offs that they can't function properly anymore, thus creating situations like yours.

Everyday I see people who have 'fallen down' the ladder of society who are now in a position in which they have to beg for a respectful existence. It makes me angry.

Take care, comrade. I wish you all the best in recovery and I hope better days are coming soon.

Our party leader gave a webinar today about the new government's plans and what they will mean for the population. I thought it was very informative and I admired how he gave it himself. Imagine Joe fucking Biden giving a webinar to Democrat members himself. On a Tuesday evening.

CW: suicideSadly a very active member of our party took her own life. Even though I did not know her very wel personally I am very shocked. We chatted a few times during party actions. Keep checking on each other, comrades.___

I agree. We shouldn't use euphemisms at all. I hope that that's not what my comment makes people think lol because that wasn't my intention.

The new government has been formed and the plans are coming out slowly. The unions have already called for a big general strike soon, so fun times ahead.

I always advise new members of our party to not do dumb shit like hit on other party members, because it is highly inappropriate and not really what we want to be (a hook up club, that is)

The gist of it was that not all MAP commit CSA and therefore it should be accepted and decoupled from the term paedo.

I have worked in mental healthcare and I have met some MAP who were clients of mine. They were people who couldn't control their intrusive thoughts on that subject and needed help, and wanted help. I do not disagree with that sentiment.

The post, however, was trying to argue that because some people are MAP, we should therefore see it as something normal and have acceptance for it. Which is imo wrong. There is no consent possible between adults and minors when it comes to this. It should not be viewed on the same level as homosexuality, trans people, etc.

If the post was just trying to start a debate about, for example, lifting the taboo on making treatment for MAPs available, I'd say it was sort of acceptable. But it was not doing that. It was trying to make MAP normalized.

Another lib with an oral fixation. Someone needs to analyse you guys.

Bit of a shit article but it basically boils down to SA wanting to do some land reform stuff and white USonians are crying 'white genocide' now. And now a leading SA left wing figure is saying that they'll do it anyway.

The year has started off both good and bad. Family tragedy happened and my mental health seems to have taken a hit. At the same time I'm staying really disciplined when it comes to my workout regime. I am also nearing half a year sober. At least for the last few days the sun has been out instead of the constant grey sky that has been here for months.
