Incase anyone finds it useful.
Using a redirect to this website can be quite nice as well.
Usually, it ends up in the hands of the elite.
Otherwise they wouldn’t lobby for it.
Don’t be shy to put up a book donation flyer in the local wallmart or something if allowed.
Lot of people have books rotting away in basements they wanna offload.
✨Abolish Property✨
tell the rent extractors to fuck off
Yeah, until they flew over your house. If you think living near an airport is bad these days…. Concorde begs to differ
Xitter blocked it recently as well…
a traditional English term used to describe a political community as having been founded for the common good,
Ah yes, sure the indigenous peoples agree
The indigenous people were doinf controlled burns and had this all under control.
But then the colonisers took over and were more woried about protecting short term property value than long term sustainability so we got overzealous fire protection as a ticking time bomb.
I heard Mint and Elementary both mentioned a lot for switchers.
Any reason you recommend mint over it?
Never tried either of them myself so just curious.
Ah, me a pillar of my insanity.
That’s kind of you.
There’s not much unfortunately. If you have a couple bucks free you could donate to one of the better labs. Ie. this excellent genetics team. But I realise that isn’t feasible for most people.
Otherwise just maybe reading a short article about how politically marginalised the illness is could be helpful. In having more people “woke” on this issue. This article by Monbiot is short and works quite well.

The US day tends to have more politics because the US politics posts get bigger.
Paywall…
Edit: Are you from the US? Because sometimes in the US they refer to “social liberalism” as liberalism. If so then the arguments you are trying to make make far more sense. Vis à vis social liberalism. From Wikipedia
In Europe and North America, the establishment of social liberalism(often called simply liberalism in the United States)
Previous comment: Oh my god. No it isn’t. Liberalism is a political philsophy based on enlightenment ideals.
Like Locke’s social contract theory, hence the idea (that often fails in practice) of “consent of the governed”.
Liberalism did give us the declaration of human rights. It also gave us capitalism. It’s a complex ideology that has been dominant in the west for the past couple centuries. It is not synonymous with “Human rights”, and it is not the only ideology that claims to promote them.
Plenty of anti-capitalist ideologies arguably promote them more.
And famous liberals throughout history have been slave owners. So please please learn nuance.
Dude when did I ever say I’m anti human rights???
This conversation is so frustrating its like talking to a wall.
I have a hard time believing your good faith. Are you seriously arguing there’s no pro-human rights ideology except liberalism?
Liberalism ≠ Human Rights
If so please please learn about political philosophy. There’s a lot more than “liberals” and “conservatives”.
Liberalism promotes capitalism. Which isn’t great for human rights.
So no, criticising liberalism as an ideology, built upon capitalist and statist-nationalist ideals does not make me an evil person trying to “catch the smurfs”.
The KPD was shit. That doesn’t excuse what the SPD did. As always, just because two bad things happen doesn’t take away for the first thing being bad.
There were plenty of grassroots anarchist and communist riots (unaffiliated with the KPD) that did a lot of good.
Why would you call a town in California port chicago 😭
