there& #39;s been dozens in the past decade alone, all of which had or have truly long-term revolutionary potential, and all of which were completely ignored, abandoned or actively demonised by most & #39;leftists& #39; https://twitter.com/Marge2432/status/1289404824975314945">https://twitter.com/Marge2432...
what is happening in Hong Kong in the past year and what& #39;s been happening in Syria for the past decade alone will have consequences for decades to come, but try and find one & #39;leftist& #39; forum on either Hong Kong or Syria that isn& #39;t filled with racist bs
The 2011 uprisings, the 2019 Iraqi and Lebanese protests, Chile 2019, India 2019, BLM, the indigenous revolts across the world, the Thai protests, the *multiple* protests in Iran, the Indonesian+Papua protests, western fucking sahara
we have been living through the revolutions of our times for the past decade or two but most of y& #39;all too busy waiting for some of them to quote Che or Mao or fly that stupid red flag before you pay attention
we need to stop looking for pre-existing & #39;leftist& #39; symbols. they won& #39;t come back and good riddance to them all. they do nothing to actually help those struggling against oppression. absolutely nothing
excuse the bitterness, but there& #39;s an ongoing genocide in Xinjiang and I& #39;m seeing edgy & #39;leftists& #39; spending their time dunking on libs because have absolutely nothing to say, just as they& #39;ve had nothing say about the genocide in Bosnia and Assad& #39;s extermination campaigns
