happy bday!

There is a lot to be done. It’s not only about feeling good about protesting as an individual.

you’re a racist Islamophobic piece of shit. get lost

yeah i wont respond anymore to your ‘market place of ideas’ excuses

what is the base for your analysis here? is the richest person in the world sieg heiling on a national stage not enough antisemitism for you?

You’d do well to point out which part is problematic here

you already know the problematic parts. to reply to your most egregious one: just because zionists exist doesnt mean jewish people arent oppressed all of a sudden.

here should’ve been some form of discussion, as the name @askchapo implies there will be.

nobody owes you a discussion. get over yourself

You are conflating Judaism and Zionism though. You were banned because you were saying bullshit pulled from thin air. Do some self crit

she

undermines the anti-capitalist messaging a little bit when its on the front page of one of the richest people on the planet dont you think?

this is essentially the “if you dont like capitalism why do you exist in it” argument. i dont see the point in being a purist when it comes to communications, it would just be impossible to build a movement and grow. sure there are risks associated with it, but they are fairly low in the west.

i dont really understand how you propose promoting an org or doing mass communications. by that logic no org member should own a phone because it could be traced, or because its produced by capitalist businesses.

There isn’t really a good reason to spend resources on a platform that barely has any people on it.

My org has our website, flyers on a weekly basis and does stalls at bigger events AND posts about it on mainstream social media. I don’t see a problem with it

Do you want me to pull usage statistics for mastodon vs mainstream social media?

Nobody uses mastodon. Orgs use platforms where they can reach an audience

why they wouldn’t just send a faculty member or the Dean down to talk about their demands.

They don’t want to give any legitimacy to the protestors. And also, as someone who’s active in a university Palestine solidarity movement, I’m sure the group would be very interested in new members 👀

he literally said the opposite though. how is this journalism

Honestly super proud to be part of PTB. Of course, there is always more work to be done, but the foundation is really solid.

whoever is more active in your area

i completely agree. thanks for expanding on my comment

i would ask what about the self determination of the people of donbas? the minsk treaties have been made specifically to increase autonomy of the eastern regions of ukraine, but instead of doing that the kiev government just shelled them for almost a decade. they local governments of donetsk and lugansk have asked multiple times for russian aid, which putin dragged out to 2022.

also for the future, don’t view ukranians as one homogeneous group. “what are ukranian interests” is not a question that has one answer. first there is a class divide, then there is a east-west regional divide etc. its not good analysis to just lump everyone in one pot, especially as a west european.
