I hate the quote "the master's tools will never dismantle the master's house." I am positive I can demolish his house with his killdozer.

EDIT: I'm pretty sure I got yelled at the last time I posted this lol.

The best struggle sessions need to not be so important that they might split the site (unless getting rid of the reactionaries is the point), but also not so unimportant that nobody will give a shit.

It also needs to be something that people will have a personal opinion on, so like "Should we have critical support of this small party from 1952 in Liechtenstein" probably won't bring engagement because nobody knows anything about it.

And finally, it should be something that hasn't been debated to death already in the mainstream, so that people aren't already tired of talking about it.

so the outdoor/indoor cat thing was purrfect. outdoor cats do have very real-world consequences on species but aren't like, a driving cause of ecological destruction unlike capitalists, people have opinions on it because many are cat owners or know cat owners, and it wasn't something all over the news already.

my only real idea is "Nuclear energy: good or bad?" but that's been a public debate for decades now

Can we do "please use a washcloth in the shower?"

I think it has the potential to really annoy the core audience here, and also gives room for loofah posting.

Car batteries should be thrown in the ocean!!

We could do male circumcision, that's usually nice and contentious.

except a vague idea that outdoor cats were bad

??!?

Repeat this 72691 times and you have the cat struggle session.

ACAB includes spins wheel dictionaries. Prescriptivist spelling is classist.

Compulsory public school is a topic that could easily turn into a struggle session.

I think dogs should be allowed to stay outside all day provided they have shelter and lots of water.

idk I'm trying to think of a really good one but I can't come up with anything.

How about "Reading Marx is revisionist because Socialism is supposed to be scientific and relying too much on a "golden age" of theory is akin to reactionary thinking"? Is that anything?

I tried to have one about Nicolas Maduro the other day but no one was brave enough to weigh in:

We can restart the struggle session about when 17 year old children make one big bad decision and that makes them irredeemable for life no matter what end of story. That was a fun struggle session. It's extra fun because it's also a far right wing view depending on the mistake, so it gets everyone upset

no more half measures walter

I think we should relegalize indoor smoking.

No no let's combine them.

Anyone that isn't vegan isn't a real Lemming and we should defederate from them.

The struggle session I'm always ready for: When are reactionaries deserving of death rather than a chance at rehabilitation?

so I've let my two cats stay being outdoor cats

you are liberal, its terminal

She was just doing what the unions wanted
