What can I do to help?

Damn you could probably write a whole ass book on What Is To Be Done

Didn't really love that video, since once again it's kinda vague advice. He mentions a few socialist organizations at the end but the whole video basically comes down to "find some local organization and join it".

Eh, that's exactly where it starts though.

Where things go after that depends on where you are, which only your local socialist orgs — and later yourself with enough experience — can figure out.

Well the Lenin dude managed to create an authoritarian regime in the name of the proletariat [yep, I wrote exactly what I meant] by orchestrating and doing the October coup. The revolution happened in February. Don't take my word for it, check it out yourselves. Some input for this research can be found in this 11min video. So, I don't see how taking advises from Lenin for action could lead to anything that's worth doing in practice.

i kinda miss 2021, even with all the death.

It was kinda fun to watch corpos shit themselves, even briefly. Unfortunately this triggered their narcissistic rage which has been on an endless tear since, but for a brief moment in time the thing they cared about was hurt: their money.

Yea i remember WEF being so scared they wanted to return to post-WW2 demand managed welfare state.

[–] gitgud@lemmy.ml 3 points 7 months ago

Oh yes, I remember that. It inspired me to re-read The Masque of the Red Death.

I remember getting off the couch and raising my fist halfway through this song. Could not believe I was hearing something so incredibly based and intelligent on a goddamn Netflix special. Bo be dropping hardcore truth

[–] gitgud@lemmy.ml 2 points 7 months ago

At first I was like: How can capitalism allow this to happen without Bo being disappeared? But then I realized that not enough people will even hear about it for it to make a difference, and even fewer will believe it or listen seriously to its message, and in the meantime capital will just profit off of it. Also they let George Carlin live for quite a while and he said essentially the same thing.
