Remember the 1980s when all music had synthesizers, which were co-developed and pioneered by Wendy Carlos, a trans woman?

Fundamentally, my ideal foreign policy vision is Brits & Americans & Frenchmen & Germans & Poles & Ukrainians and Japanese & Taiwanese & South Koreans & Australians and whoever else wants to join, all standing together, under arms if necessary, to declare that all people are and ought to be free.

I've been to protests organized by PSL.

Going to a protest and insisting broader movements and organizations shouldn't work with campists isn't the same thing. The world is messy; sometimes you end up in weird alliances. Lots of leftists want to work with campists from the jump; that is bad.

I don't feel embarrassed for insisting global authoritarianism's allies don't belong in anti war organizing but let's just agree to disagree.

No it's not. You're just incorrect.

I'm gonna gingerly say yeah, Cuba had every right to want defensive military support from the Soviet Union. In a world with belligerent powers, countries reasonably should be able to set up defensive military alliances.

I don't feel embarrassed for insisting campists who end up tacitly supporting fascists and authoritarians don't need to participate in organizing leftist anti war protests.

Accountability? Cuz they showed up? You can't control who shows up. www.nokings.org/partners. I don't see either on this list. This is about people on the Left insisting they have to include them when they genuinely don't.

I'm serious. Nice try? There is no need to work with them.

Nobody forces any country to join NATO. They join NATO because of their proximity to Moscow and they are right to want to clearly!

Yeah I'll go to protests that end up having people I disagree with on. This is about many leftists insisting they have to organize antiwar protests with campists who always end up aligning with authoritarians. It's not necessary and yet so many insist they have to. I've seen it in DSA so many times.

I definitely went to multiple. These people aren't anti fascist. Many of these groups are campists who support fascism as long as it's not American.

I'm not the one defending it either.

Ditto. Go organize an event without Russian imperialism supporters so people don't question if you support Russian imperialism.

We don't have to organize anti war events with people who at best are ambivalent to Russian imperialism. It's not that hard, don't make stupid excuses.
