   I identify as a very frustrated #leftist because some of you drive me absolutely bonkers with pie-in-the-sky theory. #Marx informed us of everything we needed in our toolkits to change things. Then we have a century of social justice activism to draw from. Reinventing the wheel is unnecesaary, we have a shared goal and triage is how we achieve it. First, we reduce immediate harm, second we participate in current systems like voting while third, we organize to burn them to the ground.

     And what if I told you that the loudest academic “anarcho-communist” lefties on #mastodon / #fedi are there to get you all balled up in academic theory while never actually encouraging you to organize or to vote? Echo chambers created by the ivory tower are in place to maintain the status quo.
