Doug Enaa Greene gives an overview and critique of the political journey of Michael Harrington, founder of the Democratic Socialist of America, and his influence on reformist socialism to this day.
And FRSO too. Both of them support Palestine, the Land Back movement, and they also recognize PRC, SRV, Cuba, DPRK, Laos as Socialist countries today too.
FRSO is not very serious. They’ve been a “pre-party formation” for 40 years and seem to focus on recruiting, but you recruit not through canvassing but through example i.e. having something to show people. On the principles they follow J Sykes way too much, guy is basically the thought leader for the organization all by himself. And not only that but he rejects that the US is settler-colonial still, but doesn’t even understand what settler-colonialism is - except this is now FRSO’s line. He has poor dialectical reasoning and ultimately defends settler-colonialism pretty blatantly despite believing he stands against it.
Okay one more thing about frso because I went digging into my archives to make sure I had this correct, but we used to host sykes’ book (a collection of blog articles he wrote) on prolewiki, someone deleted it, then an frso member asked us to reupload it since they used it in a book club. I was thinking weird that they don’t provide members with a pdf for their book clubs, and the articles are individually available on sykes’ own website. they do sell physical copies - and not boding well if they teach newcomers this as “theory”. there’s more problems on sykes’ writings but nothing that I could substantiate right now.
I’ve been so far lefty since before I was born, that parents gave me a shrink for meth ( or whatever the actual technodope was called) at 8 and choked me with religion and burnt my Mage books. Took me to my early thirties before I found Aghora from Robert E. Svoboda to find The Left Hand God and start working mind back out of their Coded delirium. They think I’m crazy when I tell them thaylt they’re pissing on the seven granduncle’s graves who all fought against the Nazis.
I’m gonna be a Stranger in a Strange Land here real soon I think. I need to read my books again and I doubt I’ll have time unless I can get them to stop snorting CoCain. It’s fucking funny too because they think they do good drugs because they’re legal and don’t go to church anymore.
And no, I don’t mean Cocaine. Same thing really though. That’s basically the same as the church they don’t go to anymore but that’s my fucking point. They’re high as fuck and believe fucking anything. Doesn’t matter really. Belief is the dope snort of a church’s nasal input. Injection if your a rapist priest, of course, of course.
Try Snow Crash.
I’m so facepalming right now. You have no idea the length of this extended delirium is but *I’m the crazy kid with a roller coaster of I. That itself only works because I can regularly murder my ego “ritually” with legal dope often enough that I don’t even need the dope anymore.
You’re not wrong about what you say though. I’ve not come across anyone actually sharing my perspective beyond one. Even myself, everything I hear “left” is even a trickster game that Loki isn’t skilled enough to get us out with He Who Remains and Cthulhu to boot.
CPUSA has been doing it since 1930s.
and the conservative faction of CPUSA went on with most dangerous “A-SHIT-P”.
You’re right. CPUSA = Democrats, A"C"P = Republicans (MAGA). Because of this, sometimes I feel that the American Left exists in theory only…
i’ve heard the psl are pretty good

I got more but I am fucking exhausted.
