  • Organize movements of workers, tenants, etc. Build up support & experience, establish a program of things you want to accomplish, then organize various actions up until you have enough power to strike

  • Firestorm coop, Haymarket books, Anark, Taylor Lorenz, Zoe baker, saint andrew

  • Use resources available through your library's website

  • This all or nothing "complicit" knowledge is great for personal purity testing and useless for moving the needle. You don't need to bring someone 100% into alignment with your views, you just need them to stop supporting one kind of harm or start supporting one helpful position (which will be diff for each person)

  • Meet people where they are to make change

  • Every tax break for a billionaire or subsidy for a fossil fuel company is money we pay for things we don't want

  • A change in lifestyle is bigger than a change in numerical age. If you go away to college, that's a big change. If you get a job, that's a big change, etc etc

  • DSA state and local chapters are all different. Some are reasonably organized and strong, like in NY, others are more sleepy or just smaller. Check your local one out, give them a little grace for doing hard work in hard times, but ultimately you'll be able to see if they are a good fit for you.

  • They are effective, but not usually by being convincing. Its usually through saturation so that the first brand that comes to mind when you do need a thing is the one that saturated your market.

    Spon con and influencers are more convincing/creating a parasocial connection.

  • Tomatoes provide acidity/sweetness, depth, and moisture, so anything thing or combination of things that provide that can substitute. Pickles provide acidity and moisture, but not the rest. Mayo & mustard mixed kinda gets you in the ballpark. Red bell pepper provides brightness and sweetness... Start trying things along those lines to begin with.

  • To be any kind of leftist at all, you have to believe in equality in society, in providing for all, and opposing hierarchy. There are many interpretations of how to get to such a place, though socialism encompasses the biggest ones.

    You can enjoy the things you have access to in the current system, but enjoying the system itself, which forces us to enrich billionaires, destroys the planet, pushes us into poverty, and wastes our time and potential working on what the market wants instead of what we want, is fundamentally anti-leftist.

  • For work, the compulsion comes from outside, not from you. It's not an addiction, it's company profit intruding on your life.

  • They just don't work well. There's no technique

  • I agree in spirit, but that's not a hierarchy, just an agreement to have a certain relationship. Hierarchy is inherently not consensual

  • Yup! Plenty of smart folks have written about it

  • You can try going to your local library as a sort of practice. They also have events and not just books (though getting book recommendations is way better than AI!)

  • Get involved in a hobby that has a welcoming community: photography, book clubs, cooking classes, running clubs, maker spaces, etc. If you really believe you have agoraphobia, consider speaking with a therapist (most work over video chat).
