It's not looking at them that's the problem, it's the obsessing and worshipping part.
I've read recently that the vanguard structure of the Bolsheviks didn't even emerge until a few years into the Civil War.
Too many self-described Communists today act like religious cultists who worship a few dead guys, and maintain a single-minded belief in some rapture-like "Revolution Day" where they can re-enact some dumbed-down of events that happened in 1917-1923. I believe this approach is misguided and counterproductive to the needs of the people here and now.
Thalassophobia is a big thing for a reason. This is what happens when somebody disrespects the ocean.
For anticapitalist content from Turtle Island, I think we need to start looking for and platforming more Black and Indigenous decolonial content creators. Ones who can take the lessons from the past and apply them to the conditions of the here and now. There are already many people like this on TikTok. Personally I wouldn't put too much trust in big Twitch streamers, but that's just my take.
Right here! ♾️

Nah that's too hard. Let's all just worship some billionaire and when anything bad happens blame some other country. /sarcasm
"Schizophrenic" diagnoses exploded in popularity during the Civil Rights movement era as a medically-sanctioned way to otherize Black people and dismiss their concerns as just being "nuts".
I'm not sure what normie libs would call me. I'm a South Asian-descended US-born person who moved to "canada" a few years ago, with no intention of going back...maybe if total decolonization happens in my lifetime. So am I an expat? Immigrant? Transplant? If I had to choose I would go with "exile". Fuck libs and their labels.
Is it that good? I've been wary to touch upon Star Wars the last few years since seeing TLJ. Haven't bothered with TROS. The only part of the Disney+ run I've seen thus far is seasons 1-2 of Mando which I thought were good in parts but not enough to get me excited to see season 3.
After 9/11, the shittiest people in the world called me the T word for being brown and having a foreign-sounding name. In the subsequent years they hated me for my obvious neurodivergence, my lack of misogynistic tendencies, my refusal to accept the alt right, my insistence on wearing an N95, and now my identity as an nb trans person. This is what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object. Every year they get more mad and I only have more middle fingers to give.
