Hello Bluesky! We're the Asarlaiocht system! We have such wondrous sights to show you!
I like how 90% of the problems in the left in the modern day can just come back to "But Then Trotsky had an idea" and it's really all gone down hill from there

I saw Jesus on the cross
On that hill called Calvary
"Do you hate mankind for what
They've done to you?"
He said, "Speak of love, not hate
Things to do, it's getting late
I've so little time and
I'm just passing through" - Passing Through, Pete Seeger

Something I've noticed in anarchist spaces, especially among whites, is that Graeber's word is sacrosanct. Everyone, including Graeber, should be read critically. We all have our blind spots.

i don’t think people on bluesky understand the severity of this situation.

Those on an H1B cannot return to the US from tomorrow (Sunday) unless paying $100K. This is an out-of-the blue presidential action. We’ll see software engineers stranded abroad.
One easy to predict outcome: those on US visas will travel less… for work, for conferences etc.

Vir: See people joke like “oh this is so Silly” people don’t realize this is actually very Par for the course historically.
We literally have nearly started a war over a pig, had a guy who was a self proclaimed emperor, and the literal symbol of America’s liberty, the bell, has a spelling mistake

There is something unspeakably terrible but also hilarious that in the future historians are going to have to teach people about the time the government used a kid named Big Balls as an excuse to invade an American city with feds and national guardsmen

Happy Labor Day!
Today we're bringing you The First Union, as told by HBomberguy (@hbomberguy.bsky.social) and illustrated by Skutch (@skutchdraws.bsky.social) It's the dawn of the industrial revolution, and of the way many of us work...
Have you ever heard of the term "Luddite" from an elder?

Today marks the 40th anniversary of the 7th episode of Dirty Pair, "愛こそすべて命賭けます逃避行!!" or "Love Is Everything, Betting Their Lives on Elopement", one of the most overtly trans-positive episodes of anime of its era. This was the future they predicted for us in 1985. We can still get there.

Hel: Apparently throwing fists and whacking my enemies with sticks is not considered "An effective model for creating change" but to that I say, I just haven't hit them hard enough

tfw you actually do have to take hydroxychloroquine as a prescribed way to treat your RA (it acts as an immunosuppressant to help deal with Autoimmune disorders), but everyone relates it to the Horse Dewormer people so you need to explain why you take it

Reminded of that time we had s character denied in an Elder Scrolls RP because our character was “Unrealistic” because they were pansexual.

Actually there’s a difference between imposing respectability and wanting to keep conversations good faith.
You can simultaneously call people out for their blatant hypocrisy and lack of empathy, and still be arguing in good faith.
