There's a whole subgenre of youtubers now dedicated to restoring old tools and objects. Most of it is boring "I'm restoring another goddamn vice wooooo" but there's a sub-sub-genre of people restoring old Soviet hardware and it's super fascinating both for historical purposes and to see how Soviet tooling and techniques were different than what became common in the US.

This is a pretty basic example, but it's still fascinating.

lol. my point in making that comment in the fyad thread was specifically that there need to be strict rules regarding what language is or isnt acceptable so the mods cant ban people based on their interpretations. i disagree with the stalinists but i also dont want to see them banned by mods who treat their politics as being against the rules. its not even a what if, it happens right now. people from cspam were punished for posting in the venezuela threads for challenging the narrative of US intervention being a good thing or supporting maduro and the psuv. guyovich was pushed out and stepped down and other people punished for putting forward differing opinions about chinese treatment of ethnic minorities. i dont even necessarily agree with all those viewpoints (the china one) but i also dont want to see people who are socialists who disagree with liberal ideas about those things removed from the site.

did i miss something? the thread that was stickied was talking about the poster benghazi 2.0 getting banned by d&d mods for arguing with them, it was like a huge thread that people were complaining about the mods in d&d doing that. im agreeing that i dont want that to happen to people in cspam. personally i would love it if it were possible to post sincerely about socialism in d&d too but like people get punished like benghazi 2.0 and all the anti-us intervention people in the venezuela thread and even people who challenge certain viewpoints about china

I've never really heard anything specifically bad about PSL and they're pretty visible for a leftist org around where I am. The worst I've heard is that they really burn out organizers, but that's true everywhere. And people whining that they expect you to hold to the party line, but that's the whole point of centralism.

i have my issues with them but it's going to take me down a convoluted history of marcyism which is probably less important in the grand scheme of things (and more my own intellectual masturbation) than people just joining an org and doing stuff

Y'all talk poo poo about him but as much as I can tell he is far more seriously involved in organizing work than any of you. I would be interested in being corrected if I am wrong though.

Pener Kropoopkin

all the organizational skills and theoretical knowledge in the world can't make up for a total lack of social skills. Learn how to read a room. This is not the right thread to import forums drama into when there's already a dedicated forums drama thread. that is by the way, a thread where apropos went to the mat for a poster that dismissed the distress of poor people being unfairly banned that couldn't rereg as "unhealthy," because they claimed to be trans and caught a sixer.

this is starting to border on a liberal obsession with bonafides trumping context. being an organizer doesn't mean you get to say whatever you want with zero pushback.

I'm actually Fred Hampton aged 71 in hiding after my attempted assasination for 50 years and I'm outing myself just to tell you how much of a loquacious bore and feckless organizer he is with the authority you seem to crave
