Would like to get some insights on #Stockholm from a #leftist perspective.

Local capitalist media in Finland along with the far right news outlets (offspring of the Lapua movement) are pushing a narrative of unsafe Stockholm and gang violence there, latest set of these news is from yesterday.

Any takes? Is there legitimate security concerns for tourists or is this just the furthering of Swedens right wing policies and a campaing to justify Othering and racism? Aka is it #fascism like in the 1930s?

Any recommendations?

Looking at Mastodon and Firefish. I've got accounts on other types of servers in the fediverse (Pixelfed, Peertube, write.as) but they don't seem to be integrating as well as I hoped. So I don't want to lean on any of them for my main activity.

"The classic leftist distinction goes: leftists want to abolish a system where 150 white men run the world; liberals want to replace half of those 150 with women, queers and people of color."

Word, from @pluralistic

#leftist #liberal

https://pluralistic.net/2023/09/05/not-that-naomi/

While Klein talked about capitalism and class and solidarity, Wolf wanted to "empower" individual women to thrive in a market system that would always produce millions of losers for every winner.

Fundamentally: Klein is a #leftist, Wolf was a #liberal. The classic leftist distinction goes: leftists want to abolish a system where 150 white men run the world; liberals want to replace half of those 150 with women, queers and people of color.

The Bay View massacre was the result of a strike held on May 4, 1886, by 7,000 building-trades workers and 5,000 Polish laborers who had organized at St. Stanislaus Catholic Church in Milwaukee, Wisconsin to strike against their employers, demanding the enforcement of an eight-hour work day.[

By Monday, May 3, the number of participants had increased to over 14,000 workers who gathered at the Milwaukee Iron Company rolling mill in Bay View. They were met by 250 National Guardsmen under order from Republican Governor Jeremiah M. Rusk. The strikers had shut down every business in the city except the North Chicago Rolling Mills in Bay View. The guardsmen's orders were that, if the strikers were to enter the Mills, they should shoot to kill. But when the captain received the order it had a different meaning: he ordered his men to pick out a man and shoot to kill when the order was given. Workers camped in the nearby fields and the Kosciuszko Militia arrived by May 4. Early the next day the crowd, which by this time contained children, approached the mill and were fired upon. Seven people died as a result, including a thirteen-year-old boy. Several more were injured during the protest. Several contradictory newspaper accounts described other possible casualties, but the count of seven deaths is substantiated by specific names (Frank Kunkel, Frank Nowarczyk, John Marsh, Robert Erdman, Johann Zazka, Martin Jankowiak, and Michael Ruchalski).

If you're a leftist and you're on here commenting on disabled leftists' posts about being excluded with responses like:

"Oh, of course we must fight ableism, but you can't expect the majority of people to do X/Y/Z to include just a small number of other people like you."

Then you really need to take a long look at yourself. Are you talking to other minorities like that? Why is it suddenly reasonable to support the 'comfort' of the majority over the wellbeing of others? Do you think that's radical? Why is it so obvious to you that we don't need to adapt to include some people?

I've been seeing this response especially often on requests to mask. You're a lazy comrade and it shows. You're abandoning your disabled peers. Do better.

i've been working on a #vegan myths project for quite some time and i'm really excited to share it! boosts ok! :vegan:

https://crow.cafe/vegan-myths/

it's a pdf of individual posters to be posted/wheat pasted/made into a #zine AND a companion website containing tons of sources.

i covered the vegan myths i've personally heard the most with a focus on #intersectionality. many of the myths have been echoed in #leftist and #anarchist spaces specifically.

i'm not at all a health vegan so more sources for that section would be appreciated!

I have quite a lot more followers than I did when I first wrote my introduction, so it’s only fair that I’m writing a new one, bump up the major version.

#introduction #intro #introductions

Hi! o/

I am Ștefan (ș as sh, I also accept Stephan or the equivalent in your language). I’m 21 years old, ♑, he/him, proud #leftist and soon to graduate CS @ UVABc. Sort of proudly living in #romania. My native language is Romanian, fairly proficient at English, slowly learning #finnish (and #italian).

Tried a lot of programming languages in my childhood up until now, a non-chronological list of ones that stuck with me for one reason or another being: VB6 (that’s what I started on at 8 years old), #pascal (+ #freepascal and #delphi), #perl (+ #raku), #tcl #tcltk, #lisp (usually #scheme, on a good day #elisp #emacslisp and #commonlisp), #elixir, #php, #forth, #lua, #oberon, #modula-2, #cpp #c++, #ocaml, #fsharp, #smalltalk (+ #squeak #pharo #self), #ada, #powershell, #dart, #matlab, #rlang, #zig, #nim, #cobol and #julia. I don’t claim full proficiency in all of these, but I’m familiar enough with these (+ some others not mentioned here) that I could get along just fine with 2 weeks at most of studying and looking through cookbooks and examples). I’m flexible in learning new languages and technologies if needed.

I also do #sudoku and #math for fun (especially functional equations and number theory problems, sometimes calculus and geometric algebra). I am interested in #linguists, #conlangs (#lojban and #esperanto) and #nlp, contemporary (post-‘45, usually post-‘89 for me) history, #balkan history, lower-level stuff (I like to learn about how tools around me work, I’m most interested in #compilers, #emulators and #microcontrollers), #typography and #latex, #linux + #bsd, #msdos, #amiga, #oberon, #plan9, #philosophy, #astronomy (especially in a worldbuilding context) and #philosophy, along with other less notable interests.

I engage in #politics relatively often irl, although I’m not inserting it in absolutely every scenario in my life. As I mentioned, I’m a #leftist and #progressive (or… um… #woke) (Nazis and fascists can have a merry fuck off, DNI with me). I am also a spiritual person, a #deist (if you really want to put it that way, an agnostic, although it’s not quite true) and I find #astrology and #tarot interesting (I’ll let you guess my moon and ascendant, let’s see how close you are).

With that being said, I hope I’m welcome here, you can pick your subset of things that interest you from this list, you have plenty of options. :P Quite a bit longer than last time, but oh well…

BOAK (and other initiatives from Ukraine) made a statement against the lie of German 'leftists' about our comrades Dmitry Petrov, Finbar Cafferkey and Cooper Andrews who died fighting near Bakhmut on April 19, 2023. They asked to spread it widely so what we do and ask you to help.

​​Anarchist movement answered to the provocation of German newspaper Junge Welt (by BOAK)

A German leftist paper recently published a speculative claim about our deceased comrades. It claims that the anarchists, who were killed fighting in Ukraine, had changed their views and joined the right. They try to prove it with a quote from the channel of right-wing politician Dmytro Korchynsky, where he spreads the lie that Dmytro Petrov, Finbar Cafferkey and Cooper Andrews joined the right-wing Brotherhood organization and “were learning to love god," implying that they gave up their views.

We won't allow this lie to desecrate the memory of our friends who were dedicated anarchists to their last days.

So where did the information about anarchists being members of the Brotherhood come from?

Dmytro, Finbar and Cooper, who died in combat near Bakhmut on April 19, were indeed there alongside Brotherhood members. But, according to the guys themselves, their friends and our comrade who was in the same division as them, they never joined that organization. Joint participation in combat and training was a temporary decision forced upon them by army commanders.

These fighters gathered together specifically to create an anarchist division, but had to make do with extremely limited means. After arriving at a training camp as a group, they were notified that they would be training alongside members of the Brotherhood, and later that they will go on their next mission together. For the sake of their goal, the anarchists were ready to take on any challenges, so they weren't stopped by the unpleasant necessity of temporary coexistence, since personal comfort is insignificant compared to the challenges of the anarchist movement.

We ask you to share this information and talk about this to make sure that no manipulations, either from right-wingers or from instigators, can dim the bright memory of our dear comrades. They gave their whole lives to the struggle for our freedom and yours, and bequeathed to us to carry on their work.

Personally, I’m a #nonbinary #parent of two #kids. My wife is #bisexual. Our oldest is #genderfluid, so our whole #family is pretty darn #queer. I’m very #liberal, but I do not consider myself a #leftist or #socialist, though I’d much rather hang with folks who are than anyone on the other end of that spectrum. We live in the #midwest #unitedstates.

Uh. I think that’s it. So there’s a(n extremely long) #reintroduction for you, I guess? Hope to talk soon.

Alright, making my #introduction! Here we f*cking go!

Hey everyone, You can call me Forte! I'm a senior Information Systems student at a certain university in the #Atlanta Metro Area. I like #videogames, #writing, and #manga. Over the pandemic, I also gained an interest in #vtubers, so you're free to ask me for any streamer recommendations.

I will occasionally discuss social justice related topics. #leftist #antifa #BlackMastodon

I have more to say, but character limit. Nice to meet you!
