(San Antonio Eloxochitlán, Oaxaca, 1873 - Leavenworth, Kansas, 1922) Mexican politician and journalist who is considered a precursor of the Mexican Revolution. His figure has remained as that of one of the most upright fighters and consistent with the cause of the workers during the times of the Revolution. Indefatigable and indefatigable, his thought and his struggle inspired many of the workers' conquests and some rights that would be included in the Mexican constitution.

The son of Indigenous parents, Ricardo Flores Magón studied law at the University of Mexico. In 1892 he was arrested along with his brother Jesús de him during a student protest against the dictatorship of Porfirio Díaz. After collaborating with the short-lived daily El Demócrata, he founded with his brother the newspaper Regeneración, whose first issue appeared on August 7, 1900 and from whose pages the Porfiriato was permanently lashed out.

Harassed by the government, he had to go into exile in the United States in 1904. In the city of Saint Louis (Missouri), he founded in 1906 the Mexican Liberal Party, of socialist/anarchist ideology, claiming a revolutionary program of state interventionism. He demanded the eight-hour day, Sunday rest and the distribution of land to the peasants, with which his ideas had repercussions on the Mexican labor movement. Closer and closer to anarchist socialism, his party was behind the strikes in the mining town of Cananea and the Rio Blanco industrial zone in Veracruz (1906-1907), violently repressed by the Díaz regime.

After the outbreak in 1910 of the revolution that would force Porfirio Díaz to resign, in 1911 he promoted the insurrection in Baja California with his brother Enrique. They came to take the cities of Mexicali and Tijuana and tried, without success, to found a socialist republic. Lacking aid, they were defeated by government troops and had to retreat to the United States. Convinced that the governments were to blame for the oppression of the working class, they continued to fight the rulers who, during the turbulent period of the Mexican Revolution, succeeded Díaz: Francisco I. Madero and Venustiano Carranza.

President Francisco Madero sought his help, but Flores refused to collaborate with the bourgeois revolution. Many of his claims were admitted in the Congress of Querétaro (1917). In 1918 he drew up a manifesto addressed to anarchists around the world, for which he was sentenced to twenty years in prison by the American authorities. After suffering a cruel and ruthless prison regime, he died almost blind on November 20, 1922, in Leavenworth (Kansas) penitentiary.

I forget who mentioned it in the last mega but I watched Olympus Has Fallen and the first 30 minutes were so sick like yes daddy Kang please destroy all of our nukes and force the US military to retreat from South Korea panting

ten years later and we're all in something called the 'Comrade Martyr Nick Mullen Brigades' for reasons that are quite literally too stupid to describe in sequence

There's something I find perplexing about how people who don't cook, when they try to cook, act like they've never seen anyone do this activity before.

The funniest Robert Redford fact is that he didn't get the lead role in the Graduate because he was too handsome and thus couldn't comprehend the idea of being turned down by a woman.

I hate being a leftist. Why my anarchist and ML friends gotta be at loggerheads? Why am I responsible for organizing my workplace when it's a large corporation in a field where a union is basically unprecedented? Why does explaining my worldview to anyone need to be such an uphill battle when it just started from first principles of compassion and empathy? Why do I have to sound like such a fucking nerd?

[–] TerminalEncounter@hexbear.net 4 points 5 hours ago

I dont have proof for this, I have a feeling though that those kinds of tensions between leftists will dissolve in the face of real possibility for revolution. Lenin wrote a lot about the people he didnt care for in the lead up to the Bolshevik revolution (he was quite sassy lol). We do have to work out theory but theory has long ran ahead of praxis in the dialectic of theory-praxis.

Its up to you to start because youre the one who still believes in the future and thay solidarity can overcome oppression, even as small a start as making sure people get safe conditions, paid better, with better benefits.

It sucks to explain your view of the world because while any human has that at their core - there is an entire ideological apparatus the size of a society to instill racism, homophobia, imperialism, and so on but despite its size and complexity it still fails because the indomitable human spirit retains compassion and empathy at its core. So you its gonna feel cringe to explain earnestly that people have a right to control their own destinies and that all of us together can solve the big problems of our day (you know them already: climate change, genocide, imperialism, whatever) because we dont even live in Kali Yuga we live in a rizzless Kali Cringe lol. You read stuff and reflected on it, you "sound like a nerd" because 200 years of nerds help speak through you and sharpen your natural instinct towards empathy and compassion instead of trying to rediscover first principles by sheer instinct.

Homeworld 1 has actual physics (constant velocity trajectories in 3d space) for the bullets fired by ships' cannons. the advantages one ship class has over another in combat are a direct result of their respective maneuverability, targeting speed, etc. just like in reality. this was not difficult for CPUs in 1999.

Homeworld 2 fucks this all up by hardcoding in X beats Y beats Z dynamics like rock paper scissors. ships don't take damage because they collided with a projectile at high relative speed but because they lost a (loaded) dice roll. why!?!?!

such a disappointment. we went backwards! It's embarrassing.

I really dont get the business plan for dating apps.

So we want you to use the apps, but we're going to give you 7 likes per day, which come back in 24 hours. But also you're so new you really cant use the apps at all to talk to the people who you still haven't matched with. Also the premium is like $30 a month, and we're leaning really hard into the FOMO. Nevermind that you cant even talk to someone to set up a date to make this whole endeavor feel worth investing in. Also we bought all the other dating apps so they are all bad in the same way.

I have dipped my toes into running a meme account online, and i realize i need to set up a framework to make posting easier for myself. Mood boarding, if you will. This might be the most fun thing I'll be part of for a while.

[–] tombruzzo@hexbear.net 1 points 37 seconds ago

Look into some apps like buffer you can use to schedule posts ahead of time so you can batch posts. It makes it easier to keep up the cadence without being on your phone all the time

Every single time I see videos of ICE officers doing anything, I feel a sense of rage that makes me uncomfortable. I want to see these people fought against with force.

I have to remind myself, the ideal scenario for them is rehabilitation. I want to believe in a future where everyone who has worked with ICE and similar organizations are put away into mental hospitals and not released until it is ruled that they're no longer a threat to society. They are people deserving of compassion, even if they're really fucking stupid and racist. They do deserve to be locked up, I don't think the best case scenario is just fighting them with force.

However, if there's no real political movement to get them put away and rehabilitated... then we have to consider the second-best scenario.

you can't rehabilitate people unless you have the infrastructure to do so. fedposting in minecraft is what nazis should get in the meantime

Some 20 year old man hoping for liberation ot his people or country shot the Archduke of Austro-Hungary and started WW1

Why shouldnt our Archduke be a right wing podcaster who is the central node of an insanely right wing funding network, why shouldnt that 20 year old now have seemingly no ideology but whatever edgy memes he saw last. I dont think we'll have a crisis like WW1 out if this or whatever but things, as they always will pending revolution, will certainly get worse

Saw a car today with "we are all Charlie Kirk" scrawled on the back window, and I couldn't help but think: none of us would do this over Hasan. Even the biggest fans wouldn't make fucking commemorative T-shirts, compare him to MLK, hold protest vigils or whatever the fuck. Many people would be very disturbed and sad I'm sure, but the fact that these fucking sensitive babies have the audacity to martyr a fucking YOUTUBER is breaking my brain.

The Charlie Kirk March in my town had around 300 people. What the fuck man

[–] MF_COOM@hexbear.net 9 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

none of us would do this over Hasan.

That's because we're way cooler than those fucking losers
