ML. Authleft enough that Libs will call me a Tankie.

I’m a 14kyu on online-go.com. I suppose that counts.

Is there anyone who didn’t know this already?

If I ever snap and decide to off myself I’m taking some CEOs and piggies with me.

What middle class?

So outraged that he’s sending more bombers and munitions! Seriously, fuck this country.

How can I help our comrades in Gaza fight this?

You’re being facetious about the AC, I get it. You also clearly have never done real work in the heat before. People will die because some chucklefuck corpo thinks 10 minutes and a glass of water is enough on a construction site in a Florida summer.

C’mon… Make it so!

I am an idealist, in the same sense as Che’s ideas about a revolutionary’s love. I want desperately for us as humanity to make kind, informed, rational and appropriate decisions. I want to see the best in people… I also realize that’s not realistic a lot of the time. But hey, have to have hope to keep going, no?

Idealism should never undermine the reality of the situation, but it can and should be a guiding force. I am an idealist in the sense that I believe given the tools and direction we can be incredible. Realistically, right now the fight is tough, it sucks, but we can make a better world, or at least, we gotta try.

As for idealism in relation to material condition, decisions cannot and should not be made with ‘what if’ positions. Plan for the worst but those plans should be made malleable enough to adapt should real material conditions allow.

Then I thank you for the clarification.
