radical aestheticism substituting genuine radicalism will get us nowhere—it instead fetishises the movement.

Saying that nabudol ito, katangahan o kamangmangan ito sa kanilang panig. Pero hindi.

If we're talking about NDs? No, there was definitely opportunism on their side.
Hindi nagpabudol ang kilusang ND—alam na alam nilang maraming kababalaghan si Duterte pero nung sinabi na ng UG na suportahan siya, sumunod ang aboveground.

it will not yield immediate results, you may feel frustrated, anxious, or dejected. you gotta keep going, keep showing up. building trust and relationships is what opens doors into opportunities that you didn't even know existed

at this point i am begging you to organize. formally, informally, i do not care. you need to find something and consistently show up. you need to push yourself out of your comfort zone into unfamiliar situations, and meet new people. this takes effort, it won't fall into your lap

you know who else was matapobre?
AJ #LabanFilipinas@AJsaysthings
My opinion with Du30 2016 is that he awakened the internalized matapobre of the upper and middle classes towards poor people that’s why he was popular They saw the iron fist rhetoric and thought “finally mayayare na kayong mga naka-jersey sa tindahan na di ko gusto ang tingin”

sure i do "mass work". so what?lotsa ppl do "mass work". akbayan does "mass work"; kayumanggi does "mass work"; even big-L Liberals do "mass work". let me guess, its your version of mass-work coupled w all your ideological baggage thats the correct one, eh? funny how that works

@heisseheisse Try to do some masswork/groundwork to widen and deepen your understanding. Books can't fill the blanks on your head, too much reading can lead you to disarray

...the Platformist/Specifist method of organizing is really an attempt to create what amounts to a highly centralized, albeit non-electoral, anarchist political party. These issues are really too long to go into here, but I recommend the pamphlet How Anarchist is the Platform?

@_toonworld the tragedy of political theory is—as i see it—is precisely the key link between politics and anti-politics. anarchy and communism precisely needs anti-political rupture, insurrection, and social revolution. but how are we to “build” mass anti-politics with political forms?

As a leftist, I find a lot of the left insufferable.
English
It will only give the ND its own rhetorical credibility, whether these individuals or groups do such in "good faith."
English
Aside from that, the non-ND left should really avoid interacting with the military/state establishment if it's just unnecessary.
We have Bobby Garcia liking Parlade's comment on the former's writeup regarding the Toboso Massacre. I don't think it will ever help.

@ensaymeowda My concern here is that the left seem to abandon these cases for the greater cause, which is of course class struggle.
English
@ensaymeowda They like insisting even back then that Akbayan was supported the military, and heck even Blair's admin internationally.
The CPP is very dense.

Among the names of those killed include:
- Florente Ocmen, Agusan Del Norte (2003)
- Raymundo Tejeno, Quezon Province (2003)
- Butchoy Vale Jr., Masbate (2008)
This is on top of the gruesome details of how they were killed or rather assassinated. As well as their hitlists.
Political Vibes@PolVibes
In the sane world you first investigate before jumping to conclusions. Akbayan or any human should definitely weigh facts especially when the NPA is part of the conversation. Especially because that glorified private army has in the past assassinated Akbayan members.

@moveimgaytarist i use the term subjectivism differently to mean that NDs overemphasize the subjective aspect of class struggle and pay only secondary attention to the objective conditions. for them, anything can be remedied if you throw enough activism at it
