    Kamala’s on that book store getting yelled at by Palestine protesters, and all she can do is deflect to Trump. Absolutely no comprehension of why people are mad at her.

    I’m working on this plan of a mutual aid kitchen - clothes and general stuff redistribution system in which people from my city can provide for eachother. It’s something I have been thinking about for a while and I think it can be a good asset in getting out party out there in a really material way. Life will be harder with the upcoming budget cuts.

    My theory is that, through organising in this way, we can show people that it is possible to create some sort of alternative society in which we can provide for eachother on the basis of ‘each according to his abilities, each according to his needs’. Even though it is currently only an idea, and the party is not involved yet, I feel like it can work.

    From there on we can involve other areas. Gardening for example, to create more greenery in the city.

    Today I learned for the first time in thirty-one years that I am circumcised. All this time I thought that my genitals looked natural even when I was aware of what circumcision was, but after rewatching Eric Clopper’s presentation on the subject I asked my mother and she unambiguously confirmed that my deliverer gave me the procedure.

    G-d, I feel so blockheaded. I should have figured it out so much sooner than I did.

      Ngl had a similar experience. Im uncircumcised, and I was always so confused why so many people’s genitals looks so different from mine. Even though I knew what circumcision was, I didn’t put two and two together until like a couple years ago :p

    Why do I watch election debates? The moderators keep mentioning that the far right candidate Wilders isn’t present at the debate and how terrible that is, and with every question they keep asking the candidates how they are going to pay for it

    It’s concerning the amount of times I end up in a discussion on Nazism and the other person says ‘but they were left wing. They had socialist in their name’

      “The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation is an american, for profit, outsourced genocide contractor.” If that doesn’t get them you say “My name is Zeus. Do you think I can’t shit lightning bolts? Anyone can name anything anything.”

    So in the past week in The Netherlands at least 3 women were killed by a man but since the suspects were (most likely) Dutch, there is no massive outrage, no Dutch flags in football stadiums, whatever like there was some weeks ago when a refugee killed a girl. All of a sudden we don’t have a femicide problem anymore it seems.

    One of my coworkers grew up in Soviet Latvia and yesterday she was talking about her school period and how it was kinda strict but at the same time gave opportunities to develop, and one of my other coworkers asked: ‘and if you didn’t listen? GuLaG? Haha’ and she looked at him like: no that’s not at all how it worked. The gulag wasn’t that much of a thing.

    Hope everyone can keep up with the goals you’ve set out for yourselves, has a pleasant week, and stays safe in these troubled times.

    As always, communism will win.

    Got left in charge of making protest signs for the upcoming strike on the 14th in Brussels. Did it together with my other young colleagues. Most of us are communist or anarchist so I think the signs became a bit more radical than they wanted.

    Calling our prime minister a genocidal fuck, lots of anti NATO signs, destroy billionaires, etc. It’s going to be fun handing them over to the old heads at work lmao.

    The last week of news has made me so angry. The UK going even more authoritarian on the right to protest, the treatment of the activists Israel illegally detained, the brownshirts of America waging war against civilians.

    I wish I could do more but I am also really struggling to find a group in the UK with their shit together.

    It has really been infuriating to witness and feel so powerless!

    Sometimes I feel like if I were to go to the media I could have them write such a devastating piece on the unions that they would not recover from it.

    I would never but fuck me do they make working there miserable, hypocrite bunch of shits.
