It’s focused after they realize what is effective.

No, it wasn’t. Have you read any of the first hand accounts of the BPP?

But at this point I feel like you intentionally missing the point.

The point of movements is to accomplish things. Solarpunk isn’t a movement if there is no theory of change.

Effective political action is focused and intentional. The BPP had a plan. There is no central solarpunk organ for democratic decision making, there is no party program. They have nothing that would make them an effective org.

Idk why you think it has to have theory or praxis to be a movement.

If it doesn’t have ideas and it isn’t testing those ideas through social practice it isn’t a movement?

owning a house and having people pay you money so they can live there is criminal”

The system that makes housing operate that way is criminal. Housing should not be a commodity

but if you go straight to some sort of off-the-wall ideology and you’re very loud about it without discussing the nuances

Honestly in most discussions I find the communists to be the more nuanced of the bunch.

You sound like you need a peasant’s revolution

I mean this sincerely; please move. If you are correct, you will benefit the world overall and yourself.

Do you know how much money it takes to move? Lol

I have only read “Das Kapital”, and only by translation. Marx directly asserts the equivalency between the value of a good, and the amount of labor-time that it takes to produce that good on average (accounting for the labor-time that it took to produce tools and raw materials necessary to that process). That is the labor theory of value in a nutshell.

Frankly, this is summary as reductive as Ricardo’s initial theory, and not what Marx wrote

If you believe that the scarcity we face is largely artificial, then either move to a country further on its way to communism, or start a company that will pay workers a more equal share of the value they produce.

Lol yeah gonna abolish the commodity form by starting a company. You didn’t read capital lol

Found the idle rent seeker, or worse, a bootlicker for idle rent seekers.

There is a reason why capitalists and socialists both hate landlords, they are a relic of feudalism.

Generally the comments I get are when I put in effort to my appearance. Putting together a nice outfit, accessorizing, doing something with my hair, putting on a good perfume for the vibe, that sort of thing.

It gives me confidence and a mixture of that + demonstrating thought/intentionality is what I think is what is hot to folks. At least that is my perspective on it when admiring other femmes. I feel like it is something anyone can do in their own way?

I get that men might be afraid of like, being called gay for putting effort into their appearance, but honestly just not having a thin skin is an attractive feature in someone.

Every self professed attempt in history to enact socialism either has already been declared not good enough to count as socialism, or will be declared as such in the future, when it gets even worse.

Declared by who? I would much rather be living in a tier 1 city in China right now personally. Or in Cuba if the US ever stopped strangling it.

The labor theory of value is so poor as to be indefensible

I agree, David Ricardo was incorrect, and Marx’s refutation in his theory of value explains the creation of value much better. (Imagine reading Marx and not Wikipedia on Marx)

and scarcity is a property of nature, rather than capitalism

Scarcity is a property of nature and artificial scarcity is a product of commodity fetishism (necessary for capitalism to function)

Okay, do you think people have the right to get angry at problems they have in their life due to an incredibly violent and inefficient system?

Okay so you want a hot war between Russia and NATO and you think that would be less violent?

Where are you getting your information from?

Predatory lesbian brainworms, I have forced myself to set the benchmark of “if someone repeatedly compliments your appearance they will probably be flattered even if they don’t reciprocate” and that has helped.

Hey just as a heads up degenerate has its roots in eugenics

Weird how they feel the need to announce it instead of just having it. Almost like announcing it serves a social function, and it is obvious if you frame the same phenomenon through another bias:

“I only sleep with blond haired blue eyed white women”

Also fuck you have no idea how often I hear something about how trans women are unfuckable after turning a guy down.

Yeah, I’m defective for having experienced your “preferences” in other men resulting in men being really scary to me upon those men being rejected, and wanting to explain to you that men making sweeping claims about attraction to trans women can put trans women in danger when reality doesn’t match up so neatly.

Plus all the connection to stigma culture that reinforces transphobia but that is less acute.

Are lesbians bad because they don’t want to suck cock

I know plenty of cis and trans lesbians who love to suck cock. Just not men’s cocks.

And I am equally suspicious of lesbians who are like “trans men are an exception” because they generally either treat trans men like shit or realize they’re bi but only interested in dating and fucking other queer folks.

Yes, it is you who is egotistical because you believe that you should be able to dictate to me what I should like.

Not dictating to you what you should like, pointing out that what you’re saying doesn’t actually make sense when it comes to interacting with women in real life and not just looking up porn categories.

Yeah, I’m the egotistical one, not the cis guy trying to explain why it isn’t actually transmisogyny to a trans woman who has studied and experienced this specific form of transmisogyny.

You aren’t some static being where people attempting to change your mind about something you haven’t investigated is some violation. If that is what it feels like to you maybe you need to do some self reflection, because what I am describing to you is literally just the process of learning.

Edit: also men like you love to force your preference on me. Do you know how many times I’ve been cornered (because some men like to do that when hitting on someone) and had to be there for a man’s significant emotional event after realizing he was attracted to a trans woman? This is me being proactive so some trans woman doesn’t have to deal with your freak out if you end up hitting on a trans woman.

So in this metaphor trans people are AI, cartoons, and wax figures, and cis people are human?

Or, on a less confrontational tact, do you only experience attraction once you’ve confirmed that the person is cis? How does that work, do you ask for medical records before having an initial impression of people?

What do you mean by my preferences? I am annoyed when people spout bullshit that they don’t understand is bullshit and then get defensive when you tell them they’re wrong, stop playing the victim.
