I absolutely love this whole quote. reminds me of when leftist swerfs try to point at Kollontai as a figure to read in this regard, as if her writings weren’t highly tailored to the revolutionary moment in the nascent Soviet Union and those material conditions.

Mao:

Marxist philosophy holds that the most important problem does not lie in understanding the laws of the objective world and thus being able to explain it, but in applying the knowledge of these laws actively to change the world. From the Marxist viewpoint, theory is important, and its importance is fully expressed in Lenin’s statement, “Without revolutionary theory there can be no revolutionary movement.” But Marxism emphasizes the importance of theory precisely and only because it can guide action. If we have a correct theory but merely prate about it, pigeonhole it and do not put it into practice, then that theory, however good, is of no significance. Knowledge begins with practice, and theoretical knowledge is acquired through practice and must then return to practice.

On Practice

so glad you know more about the organizing efforts and the material reality of the person making this video than they do themselves :)

leftists will dogmatically agree w “Sex work is work!” or “swerfs get fucked!” but the second they hear actual swerf arguments and material realities of SWers, they’re immediately onboard w SWERF rhetoric that just doesn’t say the quiet part out loud

if you don’t actually work in the material reality being discussed and don’t know what you’re talking about?

Shut The Fuck Up And Listen
