From what I read, and forgive me if I am wrong, Sister Souljah may not have been an explicit communist as someone like Angela Davis, but I came across this video today and found she was very on point. Solidarity to all of my black comrades. <3

I commented about SUSE having a similar export policy as Fedora in that post, and from what I read, it applies to OpenSUSE, too.

I found this forum post about this topic:

I guess the Gray Jedi are just clueless centrists with opposing takes because "muh both sides".

The main purpose of these campaigns is to help educate more people and further bring class consciousness to the working class, as we saw Bernie's movement had done. We are very likely not going to win, but we need to organize as most people only pay attention to politics once every 4 years.

Here's an article from PSL regarding Bernie's campaign in 2020 that may help answer questions:

This is pretty good timing for this topic, especially here on lemmygrad.ml we have been bringing this topic up multiple times.

PSL's candidates Claudia & Karina even mention how income would be capped, though they do mention locking up war criminals and Wall Street con men (which would still be under a prison system designed for rehabilitation and reeducation):

All income and assets over ten million dollars would be subject to a 100% tax – with no exceptions or loopholes – as would all offshore corporate profits. All debt from student loans, bail bonds, medical and utility bills would be canceled.

I know this doesn't answer your question, but if you are looking to meet comrades, find your local communist party. If one doesn't exist, there may be a pre-branch starting, and you should get in contact with a party like PSL to find out if there is one near you or even help start one. I contacted PSL and luckily found a pre-branch near me, and now I am helping with building it to become an official branch. I have met some pretty cool people this way. We come in all shapes and colors, and we each have our own mannerisms and come from different stages in our journey towards ML.

If you are not from the US, I hope the same advice still applies.

This sounds like a really good tip! I need to work on this myself.

One of the articles I had to read for PSL a few weeks ago was this: https://www.liberationschool.org/u-s-agenda-cuba-remains-counter-revolution/

This is called the “carrot and the stick.” At one moment, the U.S. extends a carrot to a country, the next moment they will use the stick, the club.

This is the same government that continues to finance the terrorist organizations trying to overthrow the Syrian government, armed the opposition in Libya and then just bombed Libya to smithereens.

And it is the same U.S. government that is backing the fascist-dominated government in Ukraine, and then tried to set up a false hacking accusation against North Korea, another socialist country the U.S. wants to overthrow. Now new sanctions have been imposed on the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.

The U.S. politicians in Congress and the President, the establishment, have had fierce debates about what tactics to use, but the objective is the same: Expand Imperialism’s reach and power around the globe. If you are failing with one tactic, use another.

We were well aware of this for so long, and it's surreal looking at an old article affirming this before the Ukraine war happened.

I plan to fight for revolution in the US until it is too dangerous and the revolution turns out to not likely succeed. I am already working towards becoming a candidate member with PSL. Because I want to be a computer hardware engineer working in the semiconductor industry, China may be my best option. This is why I am going back to school next year to get my bachelor's--so I have a viable Plan B just in case.

Wow, that's beautiful

 

I'm not crying, I swear.

 

For my autistic comrades out there. I'm going through autistic burnout myself.

 

I know some of these videos have already been posted already, but here's a playlist from this YouTube channel.
