Comment on Is there a way to block hexbear
axont@hexbear.net 8 months agoDude, this may be breaching opsec, but my comrades have had DEA and FBI knock on their doors because of affiliation with anarchist organizations and connection to BLM leadership. Please don’t tell me what cops here do or what I have the freedom to do. I live here and I’ve seen people get arrested.
We’re free to criticize as long as we keep quiet about it and don’t actually try anything. The place I live absolutely will kill people if need be. I’m definitely not free to be open and critical wherever I go. My boss will fire my ass if he knew my politics. I’ve been fired for unionizing attempts at previous jobs. Is that freedom? Freedom of speech without the freedom to do shit about it? I don’t subscribe to this liberal horseshit of raising awareness or raising voices. I want to do shit now, actual physical things and topple this whole capitalist framework.

Damn. That’s why I don’t like the US any more than the CCP. You actually have a deep running problem.
But please do keep in mind that China isn’t the solution a lot of you think to be.

I know China’s not the solution, but rather the answer is movement within America that could learn from Chinese Marxists and apply their methodology within an American context. International collaboration is the answer, ending American imperialism is the answer, and a fully class conscious American working class willing to shed its nationalist chauvinism is the answer

That’s a new vocabulary for me.
For sure. Blind patriotism is something that I definitely do not get, both in the US and China. It’s stupid, alongside blind opposition to socialist policies like basic healthcare and livable wages. I sincerely hope the US improves on that in my lifetime.
