With some of the recent discussion around it, I wanted to share this essay I wrote on Marx’s characteristic ambiguity and reading that ambiguity as an essentials pillar of his philosophy rather than as a historical accident. geesemag.com/marxs-material…

@SATaravine @pkgandakin @moistcoffeecake I mean I let this take out only because long haul maintained their majority. I think they'll have more legitimacy now they've overcome this challenge. Not really allowed to be called fringe anymore. Only possible with this election.

Views are my own yada yada, but I think it's fine / good to elect committee/wg leadership from the membership as a whole. The constituency at the local level is the members of the chapter. Deference to expertise is a hinderance imo.

@bioleera @pkgandakin @moistcoffeecake A full voting member of a democratically run organization isn't "butting in" by engaging w work critical to the org. They own it as much as the people directly involved. This "butting in" notion is liberal pluralism, a recipe for siloing, disorganization, and lack of unity.

@moistcoffeecake It stunts the growth of membership development. The correct strategy can still fail if its not wholly understood. I believe citizens should have oversight over the military despite no expertise. I think silos ultimately are conflict avoidant compromises.

That people fail to see the global struggle by the reactionaries against queer people as such and trans women in particular *as* a form of class struggle, a class struggle from above, shows that many Marxists would not know class struggle if it bit them on the arse.

@BolshevikBeyond @m1sswrldgrrrl94 It’s important that as Marxist we always remember that class struggle in its pure, abstracted form, never really happens. The class struggle is always mediated by a number of varying factors which give it its specificity

@peakcapitolism committees doing core internal functionality should be leadership appointed, issue/organizing based areas should be chapterwide elections. WGs being able to determine their own membership criteria is messy

the roko's basilisk guys are so funny bc they correctly intuit that our lives will be controlled by a psychotic, amoral algorithm that hates humanity but they think some nerd in SF is going to build it on his macbook. it was already built, in 1602, by the Dutch

claude cowork is making me think maybe we’ll look back and it’ll be obvious that humans were never meant to spend their lives working behind a screen. we’ll see it as inevitable that computers do everything for us on computers and the future of work is cooler than we can imagine

Im not against anti imperialist slogans (as another commenter noted, this is already integrated into the movement)--but yes, I do think that making it as much of a question of domestic power as possible is the key. Iran is a core issue, but not the only one that exists, and No Kings contains more than anti-imperialism.

I’m sorry, but making No Kings about taxing the rich would be a step back in political consciousness. The identification and denunciation of the enemy is a virtue and a step in front of economic demands, not behind
Julie@julesquinns

We will have an NYC-DSA contingent where we will very clearly be demanding taxes on the rich. Better yet: join the NYC-DSA crowd canvassing training tomorrow night and be the change you want to see in the world by canvassing the generic anti Trump rally for real leftist demands

really glad to publish this. The law, despite jokes about technicality, is extremely fluid and ambiguous. CRT and similar legal critical trends have had outsized impacts on larger society; better understanding of our legal structure is a powerful tool for critique. This piece especially goes into the problems with the "personalistic" approach to law that characterizes a lot of Western legal practice

Trans Liberation and Law: Structure, Limits and Strategy after For Women Scotland READ HERE: geesemag.com/articles/trans… Months after the UK Supreme Court’s “biological sex” ruling, nothing has been settled—only made more uncertain. In this piece originally published in Legal Form (@form_legal), A. E. Rosa explores the structural ambiguity characterizing law, and the consequences it has for legal struggle and the practical exigencies of trans liberation.
