Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

I've been trying to post/talk more online as I have crippling social anxiety and I'm hoping it'll work as baby steps towards eventually being able to handle more in the real world.

I've been a part of the PSL's Action Network for some quantity of months and it is better than nothing, but I want to do more. For Revolutionary Optimism, good examples help, in the US for me it is seeing the efforts being made by the PSL, and across the world for me it is seeing the huge successes and efforts of the Chinese.

Reading Theory also helps, but even more so of the successes of Socialist efforts in particular.

Also about the PSL, they do teach about previous fights and successes of the working class in the US, probably to also help build Revolutionary Optimism and to demonstrate that it is possible to win even here in the heart of darkness. (Che Guavera would be envious)
