realized i should probably post about this on here: don't join the international marxist tendency (socialist fightback in canada, socialist appeal in the UK, socialist revolution in the US). they're currently engaging in a mass campaign of harassment and slander against my partner for speaking out about the abuse that them, myself, and others all experienced within the org. you can read about what happened to us in their statement (cw for sexual assault & harassment, domestic violence, transphobia)

since speaking out we've been reached out to by at least a dozen more people who experienced abuse within the org. there are known sexual abusers in the org who are in leadership positions and who are being protected by the rest of leadership. it is not safe for women and trans people.

Even though I’m kinda bitter about going back into training and how it’s going to be a pay cut despite longer hours and lack of control over my life, I’m also… looking forward to it?! I think starting on palliative care will be good, it’s a fairly chill rota and it’s niche so I’ll learn a lot I reckon. I wanted to do palliative as a rotation because I think it’ll be very valuable to have experience of if I ever do become a haematologist!

‘This is much like climate change, which similarly poses a long-term, existential threat to the entire capitalist system (and the planet). And as with climate change, the means to permanently keep control of or even eradicate COVID-19 exist, but they fundamentally conflict with the profiteering and national interests of the ruling class. As a result, the bourgeois resign themselves to tinkering around the edges – at best.

Even on a capitalist basis, there are plenty of measures that could and should be taken to quickly drive down the number of new cases, contain outbreaks, and vaccinate populations.

[...]

About $100bn of public money has gone towards coronavirus vaccine development, there is no good reason why private companies should make a killing from these medicines. Rather, these vaccines should be distributed to the entire world, free of charge, and quickly – before even more virulent variants develop, so that some normality can truly, finally, resume.

The profiteering, vaccine nationalism, and hoarding that pose the biggest obstacles to ending this pandemic flow directly from the rotten capitalist system.

The experience of this public health disaster will lead more and more people to draw the conclusion that this system is incompatible with a safe and healthy future for humanity. These lessons will weigh heavily on the minds of the working class during the stormy period we are entering.

We Marxists must be ready with a revolutionary programme and party to chart a new course.’

I really really want to rant about how terrible capitalism is but I'm drunk so I'll just make this post.

Do you hate Capitalism? There is an alternative! Come and join the international marxist tendency!

the "socialist organization" i was involved in public beef with in 2022 over its protection of sex pests and horrific treatment of victims recently 1. ousted its founder for having been, you guessed it, a sex pest and 2. rebranded itself to a suspiciously generic name while remaining the exact same org led by the same group of sex pests hand picked by the original sex pest who i guess they finally all got sick of so i guess instead of "watch out for socialist fightback" i'm going to have to be telling people to "watch out for 'communist revolution'" lol. it's still all under the IMT/international marxist tendency banner i believe, and still led by their international head honcho old welsh sex pest who recently published an article on their website that opens with a rant against fat acceptance. crazy world

What is Communism? Communism is our future

WATCH NOW https://youtu.be/mO4U45oopvM?si=exfin-vgelzb8h0B

How can this turn into a force for revolution? How can communism win? Socialist Revolution editor Antonio Balmer explains the foundations of communism and why we need to study marxist theory to achieve a successful socialist revolution in our lifetime.

This talk was part of the NYC Marxist School, which gathered some 200 communists from across the Northeast and Canada on October 7-8 for a weekend of discussions on Marxist theory and revolutionary strategy.

Pall care thoughts

I knew I’d enjoy my palliative care rotation but I didn’t expect it to actually start making me want to do palliative care! Friendly, relaxed environment, long chats with patients, most of the medicine involved is common sense, getting to know patients over a (usually) long period of time... it has a lot of my favourite things!

I’m not sure it can top haem for me (and haem does have a lot of palliative care tbf) but I’m really loving this rotation!
