Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Holy shit who is this woman? Don't know the name but I am interested in reading more of what she has to say.

What remains of the IWW in the USA has a framed sweater she knitted for Albert her husband while he was on death row because a bomb thrown by an unknown killed some cops at at a strike he was an organiser for.

from natopedia

Lucy E. Parsons (c. 1851 – 1942) was an American social anarchist and later anarcho-communist

She was a founding member of the Industrial Workers of the World and edited radical newspapers.

Following the Russian Revolution in 1917, Parsons moved towards communism. She became a notorious political figure and Chicago police attempted for decades to stop her speaking publicly.

Every day I learn about a new cool person from history, it never stops.

I think Luigi broke the seal on something and there's no going back

[–] Justice@lemmygrad.ml 71 points 9 hours ago (7 children)

Gotta give it a few years, but I am currently preparing a "Dear Anarchists, I was wrong. Propaganda of the deed can, indeed, be effective..." post.

[–] TheDrink@hexbear.net 47 points 8 hours ago

Preparing to submit my new pamphlet to marxists.org

A Dialectical Comparison of Conditions in the 19th and 21st Centuries and How Useful Revolutionary Tactics Have Changed

or Why It's a Good Idea This Time

[–] quarrk@hexbear.net 20 points 7 hours ago

If there are copycats, it still needs to be shown that it actually is effective in terms of political change. Likewise, if change does happen in the near future, it would be unclear whether it was already in the course of its own development with or without Luigi

[–] plinky@hexbear.net 27 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

(*western) anarchists themselves abandoned it after getting socdem benefits shrug-outta-hecks (aside from space program in spain, but they've had franco)

raf and 17n didn't, with not a lot of success as a propaganda (vdl miss to the l column)

I wonder if it was one of those 2 hour meetings that should've been an email.

if so, I get it. on that alone.

[–] hexaflexagonbear@hexbear.net 66 points 9 hours ago (3 children)

It’s the week before Christmas so probably a mandatory fun meeting where the president announces no bonus this year but everyone gets to leave at 3pm on Christmas Eve!

[–] VILenin@hexbear.net 9 points 6 hours ago

Hopefully some executives get an early departure from the mortal plane

[–] KhanCipher@hexbear.net 17 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

It's a factory, they all practically speaking shut down on Christmas week, and depending on the factory and what they do (or how behind they are) they could shut down all the way through to new years as well.

At least that's my experience with factory work in the car supply chain, and the factory where this happened here looks like it's roughly doing the exact same thing. Also just as an aside, a lot of factory type work still here in the states almost always has all sorts of problems with retaining workers.

[–] KhanCipher@hexbear.net 8 points 6 hours ago

Now, with that being said, if there's anyone who I wanted to do some legally questionable stuff to in the 5 years i worked at at factory. It'd be the 3rd shift manager, and some of the division managers, each for different reasons.

The victim of the stabbing was taken to the hospital and underwent surgery. He is in serious but stable condition, police said.

they can't all be bangers but a snowball has to keep rolling to get bigger

I'm imagining this guy coming back in to work after serving a multiple year sentence and pretending like nothing happened

[–] thefartographer@lemm.ee 55 points 9 hours ago

Or immediately asking for a promotion to offset inflation during his unexpected absence
