That AI would prolly be based af. Might be an asshole from the trolling we do for the “venting”… I’m thinking of a teenager with class consciousness, marx with acne and memes or some such.
Baby leftist. Slowly learning since it finally hit home that all the “nice things” said by liberal politicians were hollow and really only further the problems I saw around me. The more I read the more I realize there is much much work to be done.

Ha! Found another cornbread commie 🫡
GD right
The “economy” 😩 our measure of success is how much value is extracted from the highest amount of people to be siphoned to the finance sector… To do well at this is terrible for everyone else, to have a stable quality business is to fail 🤷
I’m using connect again because sync shit the bed it seems with the update, I really can’t complain!
YES
I could DEF learn a lot more in that department. Especially in the realm of farming and food storage
Prepping as in hoarding resources? I’m not so big into that. Prepping so that I and a group over dozens, to hundreds, to thousands of miles could maintain communications? That shit’s my special interest.
I definitely feel like I could be a much better communist and find and culture actual relationships and arrangements with others to improve situations for us all.
In all fairness I don’t doubt that we have total Nazis in the military. But I also believe there’s intentional disregard for any other reason to not want to go Bring Democracy™️
So any resistance to fight on the side of apartheid is straight antisemitism? Not wanting to fight against a Semite people? Got it 🙄
I’m just barely younger than “elder millennial”. Certainly out of highschool, by almost 20 years
I’m a salty commie that wants a mate 60! 😭
Mint is Irish? Aaayyy, I’m Irish! Cool beans… or potatoes, I dunno
Me too! But I’m poor!! 😭
Where I completely disagree with disallowing people in Cuba from using a distro… I’d wager at least some of it has to do with redhat being a business that makes money and that is at odds with the horseshit blockade and sanctions. And by that logic I wouldn’t be surprised to see something similar from canonical, especially support related as that’s something you can purchase if I’m remembering correctly.
That’s my thoughts without knowing the specifics so I’m quite literally talking out of my ass and spitballing.
A: I said “n’stuff” and “n’shit” waaaaaaay too much in the 90s. B: I wasn’t a teenager until 2000 so…
That’s what I was hoping for, a more active local org that was involved in support and that I could volunteer with, even if it wasn’t as out as walking around with CPUSA banners. However in my area the CPUSA club is tiny tiny. Like TINY. Being in the southern US, it’s fairly dangerous to be a known communist with the neighbors a lot of us have down here.
Whereas I couldn’t care less if someone wants to try something towards me, threats or otherwise. The few party members I’ve met are young’uns that have an ok grasp of theory, but faced with some of the opposition I can definitely see coming up… we need more people and more community support. To my knowledge it’s basically less than 2 dozen kids for the whole state chapter. Quite possibly less than one dozen. Obviously I’m not trying to say that any comrade would in any way not be welcome… but there’s a lot of work and organizing to be done and growth is definitely needed.
I’ve been trying to think of different ways to find more, I really need to get more involved in things where there are larger groups of people involved in mutual aid and community action and look for them, but like I said that’s what I was hoping for in joining. I’m in no way a leader but we need a lot more action. As we don’t have the numbers, and even if we did, I think the best option is to get involved in actions and volunteering that we agree with that’s not necessarily communist, to get the ball rolling building and finding our people.
I already have YouTube premium and I’ve moved from Spotify to YouTube music (since that’s included) years ago. I’ve been using Google podcasts for several years and it works well enough. There’s several Patreon podcasts I listen to and until YouTube music supports rss podcasts it won’t be my main podcast app.
Now, this stupid “commenting on songs” thing YouTube music added I have zero use for. Why tf would I want to have a social interaction while I’m trying to get a dopamine hit from loud music that rattles my bones so I can FORGET ABOUT SOCIAL INTERACTIONS for just a moment. JFC it makes no sense to me. Apologies, rant over.
When Google gets rss podcasts on YouTube music I’ll switch over
I really need to see if my new gaming computer can run fallout 76 on Linux, if so I really don’t have a need to be running windows anymore
