Marxism is the only valid framework to analyze the world.

Physical, human-legible media, like punch cards

They're answering like that because they're trying to be kind and give you the benefit of the doubt - but no, lol, no one here over the age of ten believes in magic anymore lmao. If that's the straight answer you want

No lol. Belief in the supernatural in any form is un-Marxist.

Whether that's angels and demons and deities, witches and ghosts, or astrology and healing crystals. It is a virtue to have a completely Materialist worldview.

Aliensrock for puzzle games, City Planner Plays for city builders, Laith for paradox slop are currently my three highest gaming YouTubers I think.

I think there's a real possibility for cooperation between DSA and PSL on this point that I think some locals chapters are in a prime position to exploit.

The DSA is a club, not a political party. Unless it's members run as independents, they need a Party to run under in most cases. And while DSA can be good for building organizing skills, because of their lack of ideological discipline they lack the ability to create disciplined ideologues and are prone to endorsing opportunists.

While DSA members cannot join the PSL or vice-versa, there is no rule against DSA endorsing PSL candidates for office or members volunteering for their campaigns. And while PSL branches cannot endorse non-PSL candidates, a common workaround is publishing a "Peoples's Program" of local political demands and asking local candidates to endorse the Party Program.

In both the Cleveland and Akron branches of the DSA, most active members are either with the Marxist Unity Group (Trots) or Red Star Caucus (MLs). They have different organizational goals from the PSL but, overall, they're Good. I don't want to necessarily generalize my local experience to the entire country, but it seems that the DSA is heading in a more explicitly Marxist direction and I look forward to a future where the DSA serves as a part of the PSL's party periphery.

I think Starmer could be considered a reformer analogous to Stolypin, or perhaps Alexander II. In some ways, Starmer would have been considered a fairly radical social democrat able to appease the working classes, in another time. But now is not the time for moderate reformers who ultimately serve the existing ruling classes.

And the people who say to "Give Starmer a chance!" are the same who, in 1910, were bemoaning Alexander II and Stolypin's assassinations because "We were just starting to get the reforms we've been asking for - and you radicals blew it for all of us!"

The time for reform is over. The people demand revolution.

Exactly - there's nothing inherently wrong with a group of people within a country, or even an ethnic group, banding together in order to advance their common interests as a People.

Where do things go wrong? When you ask: "What are the interests of that Nation? And what do you plan to do to advance them?"

An American Nationalist must realize that it is in the best interests of the nation to maintain Imperialism and exploitation overseas, and depending on how they define their nation, exploitation of immigrants and ethnic minorities at home as well.

 
 
 

Is there any way to view all posts on a given instance (as if that instance was your home instance and set to "local"), and not just a specific community/communities you are subscribed to?

Specifically, my home instance is Lemmygrad, but I'm interested in ttrpgs and want to keep up with ttrpg.network. This instance is relatively inactive so I never see their posts on my front page, and it's content is spread over several communities. I want to be able to see what's going on there while still using my Lemmygrad account.
