Average Statesian “Culture”
Northern liberals are pretty fiercely opposed to communism too so they’re in good company.
Make rednecks IWW members again
The original “red necks” were desperados in Appalachia which included Black and white people and bands fighting against moneyed interests during the late 1800s.
Oho
You read Hammer and Hoe?
Not yet, but I have it downloaded as an audiobook, and its on my list.
It’s a great book!
Nice! BTW should we make a book_reviews / literature_review community? I see we already have !socialistbooks@lemmygrad.ml , !literature@lemmygrad.ml , and !books@lemmygrad.ml, we should probably consolidate these.
Keep books, but have a literature review community as well. I don’t really think socialist books is necessary and neither literature
You can also read Alphaeus Hunton’s own works as well.

also, from wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gone_with_the_Wind_(film):
“Gone with the Wind was immensely popular when first released. It became the highest-earning film made up to that point, and held the record for over a quarter of a century. When adjusted for monetary inflation, it is still the highest-grossing film in history. It was re-released periodically throughout the 20th century and became ingrained in popular culture. Although the film has been criticized as historical negationism, glorifying slavery and the Lost Cause of the Confederacy myth, it has been credited with triggering changes in the way in which African Americans were depicted cinematically. Gone with the Wind is regarded as one of the greatest films of all time, and in 1989 became one of the twenty-five inaugural films selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry.”
It reinforced the superstructure of the southern slavers and it made alot of money, and immortalized as a great film… 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
People also did good things in the south. The slave uprisings and the people that helped in the underground railroad fought against the tyrannical slavers. Runaway slaves also gave intel to Union troops and galvanized them to fight and die to destroy the horrible institution of slavery.
