    Database of our friends? Am I misunderstanding? It sounds like you want to create something to doxx good people or at least profile and build a nice commie vetted list of people to persecute, prosecute, murder, and disappear for the reactionaries (state affiliated or otherwise) to use.

    Always consider what would happen if something like that fell into the wrong hands because it will.

    A database of reactionaries would be useless to them in political persecution or violence. Though likely of limited value to us pre-revolution. But not actively harmful to us.

    I just ask anyone thinking of this recall the second red scare and McCarthyism and how such things could be used in that context.

    If you mean something more mundane like a list of organizations or consensual public personalities (not just someone who happens to have twitter) then I’m sorry for misunderstanding and that sounds fine but given this is a discussion against the backdrop of doxxing I wanted to bring it up.

      Not exactly our friends, but if I’m understanding what Mao is saying, it’s influential people who are already left leaning, whom we can tailor propaganda to, to guide their ideals to be more in-line with communist praxis.

      This includes religious leaders, black rights activists, lgbt activists, influencers, politicians etc.

      It is still an actionable list, but the actions and goals are different.
