Fandom ethics squabbling as a whole reminds me every day that internet leftists mostly have no idea what they’re doing, and this is going to lead us down a very dangerous path, possibly very soon.
This sounds hyperbolic but it really isn’t. We tell stories not just because they’re fun - but because they’re lessons to us. We learn from each other by making up and sharing stories together. When we start yelling at each other we stop listening and stop learning.
Leftist action should not begin and end at tweeting “ACAB.” You need to do a lot of real work. Real research. You need to understand your enemies well enough that you finally realize most of them aren’t even your enemies. They’re just victims that we didn’t reach fast enough. You have a lot more in common with your Republican neighbor than either of you have with Jeff Bezos. And right now? You’re both yelling at your screens because you didn’t understand or like something you saw on it.
Yes, it sucks WAY fucking more when grandpa is yelling at the TV about “all these damn trans people” - but it still sucks when you’re yelling at yours about fictional depictions of shitty things. Depiction is not always an endorsement and if we’re too closed off to even look at something, we can’t fight against it.
I encourage you to deep dive. Think critically. Think about multiple views and perspectives on an issue, even if you disagree with them. Understand why someone comes to a conclusion you disagree with, and you’ll be much better equipped to challenge them on it.
We can do a lot better and I think we should.

You should become weirder and stranger and encourage others to do the same. We cannot let fear limit us and our ability to be, a life in a prison of fear is no life at all and it is not freedom either.

Accepting there will not be a point of cruelty in which the vast majority will act out of anything but self-interest or those immediately around them because our ability to have empathy has been eroded sucks so much ass.

lockdown
[ID 1: Three-panel comic, first out of four, with crudely drawn stick people.
Panel 1: The sky is blue and peaceful, with some clouds. Someone says "Ah..."
Panel 2: An orange person with dog ears is laying on the grass.
Orangepup Dogsaturated: "Despite the weirdness, it's nice here.
I think... I'm enjoying my fate as an orangepup dogastur-"
They are interrupted by barking.
Orange: "Huh?"
Panel 3: A green person with dog ears and a tail, who is holding a gun, stands over Orange. There is a tree in the background and some windmills on top of a hill in the distance. The barking continues.
Green: "Comrade Hot Pink is sounding the alarm. Come quick. We're going on lockdown."
Orange: "Huh? What are we-"
Green: "No time. Now."
ID 2: Three panel comic continuing from above.
Panel 1: Orange is led by Green down some stairs from outside.
Orange: "What's going on? Expository doctrine please?"
Green: "It's too dangerous. Safety first, explanation after."
Panel 2: Green shuts a vault door as Orange and a blue person with dog ears and sunglasses, as well as some sort of bandolier and a walkie-talkie, watches. The room is a plain beige with a simple ceiling light.
Green: "There."
Orange: "ok can someone explain now"
Blue: "Allow me."
Panel 3: Zoom in on Blue, who looks down dramatically.
Blue: "You must understand, young Orange. As much as we wish to trust you, there are circumstances where safety for the commune comes first.
We are aware that you have certain... Rhetorical susceptibilities, and so could not risk having you make contact with them."
Orange: "Who? Who are they?"
Blue: "One who destroys discourse."
End ID 2, begin ID 3.
Three panels once again.
Panel 1: A split view of a loft and the bunker. A hot pink person with fluffy ears is speaking on the walkie-talkie, while an onyx-colored person with dog ears and long claws is aiming a rifle out the window.
Hot Pink: "Comrade Blue. Onyx is ready. Do we have majority ethical consent?"
Blue: "Take the shot. If we later vote against, I will take accountability for the decision myself."
Orange: "What"
Panel 2: A view of Onyx staring down the scope of the rifle from outside of the window, as Blue narrates.
"You must understand, Orangepup Dogsaturated.
There are many who despise us. Many who would do anything to see us destroyed."
Panel 3: The narration continues from a view from the outskirts of the farm area. A mountain is in the distance, and a pair of grayscale legs are in the foreground, framed by some tree trunks.
"The horrific lesson we have learned...
Is that there is no low that outsiders can be trusted not to sink to.
And the danger of this interloper lies in their ability to provide others with all the excuses they need to justify their hatred."
Interloper: "I..."
End ID 3, begin ID 4. You know what this image is by now.
Panel 1: The Most Illiterate Person Alive, a grayscale individual wearing a book on their head, emerges from the woods, saying: "I am the most illiterate person ali-"
They are cut off by a view of Onyx pulling the trigger, which results in a view of the bullet going straight through the head of the most illiterate person alive, emerging in a shower of gore.
This continues to be a crudely drawn stick people comic.
Panel 2: Inside the barn loft, Hot Pink and Onyx are contacting the others.
Hot Pink: "Comrade Blue, we've confirmed a direct hit! Target eliminated!"
Onyx: "Wait. There's movement."
The Most Illiterate Person Alive: "Holy.
Fucking.
Shitfuck."
Panel 3: A front view of The Most Illiterate Person Alive, blood seeping out of the hole in the front of their face. They are framed in darkness and surrounded by a menacing red glow.
The Most Illiterate Person Alive: "I cannot believe"
The text color is inverted and changes to a more hostile font.
"You actually thought that you had any chance of killing me?"
End ID.]

Moving forward, i plan to use tumblr for media analysis and how I relate to it, and I'll use bsky for my general postings and ramblings, and I'll use insta just to see what's going on politically and events near me to take part in.

The difference between fantasy and reality is doing, we can make new by working together with others to create the new and inspire others to find their own paths to believe in.

poll submission:
do you read theory?
yes(marxist/marxist-leninist)
no(marxist/marxist-leninist)
yes(anarchist)
no(anarchist)
yes(liberal aka “leftist”)
no(liberal aka “leftist”)
Note: The label is for what you call yourself, not what kind of theory you have read. For example, you shouldn't vote for the anarchist option if you are a ML but have read anarchist theory before.
