Fuck me, i know we like to mock the average american, but there really are a lot of stupidly brave, rudderless, “on the right track” people over there who are ending up doing adventurist shit because there’s no party to organise them. Sad to see.
I say it often, but I think one of the biggest obstacles is foreign policy. You even see it here on Lemmy. So many people say things like, "PSL seems cool, they do a lot of good work, but don't they also like Russia and China? They sound like a bunch of tankies." I heard someone also say authoritarian left once, which made me cringe.
Until we break through that barrier of propaganda about US American policy, it will be really difficult to organize the public into a real communist party. Otherwise, they're all going to go to the 505051/No Kings, Indivisible, DSA, or Workers Party, all of which just funnel people back to the Democrats right now.
I think more outlets for media criticism and analysis, like Citations Needed or some of what Hasan does, is probably the only way to get people to start to resist all the propaganda being thrown at them 24/7.
or some of what Hasan does
Hasan is also part of the problem. He campaigns for Democrats and always treats them as the "lesser evil", and he is also feeding into the American left's foreign policy problem. He is rabidly anti-Russia and willfully ignorant of the realities of the Ukraine conflict. He refuses to learn about the conflict's history outside of what Western media says, or to try and understand Russia's position. He has defaulted to the liberal "Putin is just bad and crazy" thought-terminating cliché. He praises China for its infrastructure and all the "treats" it's been able to provide its people, but at the same time still clings to the "China did a Uyghur cultural genocide" narrative and always brings out the "i don't like how repressive China is of free speech" card. The American left's biggest problem is that they still cling to liberal American exceptionalism. Until they let go of the last vestiges of that way of thinking, they will struggle to form and maintain a disciplined, principled and militant mass working class movement.
Anderson said he had weapons in his bag, and inside the bag was a barbecue fork and a pizza cutter, according to the criminal complaint.
dude was springing him from the can to take him to a barbecue lmao
This reads like one of those "dangerous weapons confiscated" the PDs put up on X.
I stabbed myself with a BBQ fork once and it wasn't even that bad
I say this as someone who once got shot with a crossbow
What did Daryl from the walking dead miss a zombie and hit you?
Zomboid ass loot drop
Bethesda storytelling
Two guys, a (dead) ghoul, and a pizza cutter
He should have brought a clipboard and hardhat.
And high vis jacket, and carry a big ladder, and maybe be in a wheelchair too. While bringing a film crew.
wheelchair
This right here and tell them you're doing a surprise audit for ADA compliance
If anyone asks tell then to "Call Terry about it!"
Allegedly 
I fucking love Minnesotans.
This really sounds a lot like the high-jinks of the early Civil War, when nobody was quite certain if secession was actually happening or not.
dudes have never rocked harder
That's why I say, ''Hey, man nice shot.''
Hell yeah dudes rock
um sweetie he's a murderer and not a hero
No. Idiot logic. Full stop.
He is someone who sacrificed his own freedom to administer justice to someone who is responsible for untold death and suffering that otherwise would never see justice and would continue to hurt people and be rewarded. These people are heroes in societies where injustices like this exist, and you’re doing a massive disservice to your fellow countrymen for perpetuating these injustices by condemning those who fight against them.
good enthusiasm, but the statement you're responding to was said in jest
SorosFootSoldier was doing what the cool kids call "a bit", imitating some spineless dipshit
Oh. I think I’ve spent too much time seeing libs on facebook say that exact thing not in jest. Its ruined me.
Yer can rest here, traveler 
Or engage in struggle sessions with people who do can point countries in a map
My instance is also federated with .world so theres a lot of them there too.
imagine not being preemptively defederated as a last resort. That must be embarrassing for you.
Yeah I always thought it was so stupid. The hexbears people have been lovely as far as I’ve seen. But I’m a dirty ML commie.
But I regularly see people in .world talking shit about how rude people in hexbears and .ml are, while meanwhile being rude as fuck themselves. I swear some of those people are FBI with how many words they put into an instance that they’re defederated from’s mouth.
Minnesota pride!

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:
To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).
To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.

The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.
Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.
Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.
Link sources: All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include the Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance) or at least strip out identifier information from the twitter link. There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source.
Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.
Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.
American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.
Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.
