Well it looks like Black voters in this instance aren't “just a remarkably conservative bulwark in Democratic Party politics.”

To imply due to formal education attainment or religious beliefs folks are prone to make conservative political decisions is bad political analysis Image Especially as marxist doing electoral politics. If we take Reed's axiom that we must, as leftists, commit to doing an “organizing approach to [electoral] politics,” that means we never implicitly naturalize demographics political decisions due to social conditions

I'm so glad folks care about the strategy and effectiveness of direct actions this morning. I'm even more glad its folks I rarely see involved in consistent direct action planning of any kind. My hope is all this discourse around direct action means more of us planning and executing some in the near future.

Peace yall, 

Some comrades and I are hosting an AA meeting every Wednesday for Black, Indigenous, and people of Color (BIPOC) who want to stop drinking and/or drugging. Details for the meeting are in the graphics below. ImageImageImage This meeting will be a place to read and discuss the BIPOC, working-class, and leftist roots of the 12 steps and push back against conservative and neoliberal traditions that claim to be the only history of AA and the steps.

Thread warning

**Random thoughts for folks who have been following the current MMT, Marxist, progressive & radical economics debates online**

This quote right here prob best sums up why I'm not a public money abolitionist but a private money abolitionist. Image The idea of bartering as a primary way of conducting economic activity is a historical myth meant to obscure the political and public institution aspects of money creation.
