Where are all the free childcare programs? The American left does nothing but throw protests
Where are all the free childcare programs? The American left does nothing but throw protests
The Panthers did free before school breakfast and after school babysitting and all sorts of actual community building like that. The PSL does protests and craft events and that's it. I guess providing consistent services is an order of magnitude more difficult than organizing marches but it just doesn't seem like the marches are getting us anywhere.

i've been thinking about this lol, is there a handbook or something on the communist side of things that tell you what to do - cause i am so lost with all this stuff
Most of the leftist organizational writing is regarding armed struggle and political structuring. Few, if any, are about financing and legalese.
All the best organizations undermining progressivism and liberties are laundering money and financing violence and legislation through shell corporations and dark money. I think many of us, myself included, are still stuck in the “civility” stage and getting held back trying to do any of this shit in an honest fashion.
ahck yeah, i was talking with some lad in an activism group and i'm like, are we suppose to have fun doing activism? we're exhausting all legal routes and working within the confines of our system, so that we know we have no other choice - but i honestly just feel like a liberal.
was listening to proles of the round table with deathnography and he was saying "yeah the activism in hong kong was fun, and all the dude were like lowkey communists" and i'm like where is the fun, how do we have fun?
but ahck also stuck in the civility stage here
The usa spent most of the last fifty years strengthening and expanding the police state and the prison system in part to crush anyone who strays out of the civility stage.
Fundraising by doing crimes is real, real, real, real hard these days. The fbi, treasury, and irs have better tools thant they did in the 60s and 70s, you can't really make any money robbing banks, smuggling cheap consumer goods isn't really viable. To launder money you've got to have money coming in from somewhere. There aren't a lot of sympathetic criminal enterprises that need someone to run their money through the laundry right now.
I've had the dream of drop shipping trump tshirts and donating the money to leftist orgs but I lack any and all business acumen. I can barely haggle on craigslist
What if we put our collective heads together we could make a single functioning capitalist/entrepreneur to funnel money into the movement
