Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- 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 not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

It's a bit lib but I don't think it's damaging, probably just trying to do everything they can.

Yeah true, this is admittedly a vibez analysis, I don't know much about the people behind the 'Crustian Daily'. I think I'm too hard on the libs sometime, it wouldn't be bad for there to be mass protests, I just hope people continue and translate that into material action. My fear is that this 50501 group seems to be co-opted by some sort of dems/libs to purposely redirect revolutionary potential.

Protests are good for awareness but the problem is that liberal thought typically ceases there. The website itself is more useful action on this than the protests, but since the website is made and actively compiling, protests are basically just a small boost. That said, proper organizing with a socialist org is probably the most useful thing, but this holds appeal in lib circles as well so it crosses typical political boundaries.

Orgs with a more revolutionary orientation need to show up and recruit. That's what happens in my city. PSL, DSA, CPUSA, and others are all tabling and canvassing at these marches.

Edit: inb4 "CPUSA/DSA are not revolutionary" cause that's not the point. If you want to beat these orgs out too, show up and do a better job harnessing revolutionary energy than they do.
