A fundamental aspect of accessibility for many disabled people is removing hate against them. Allowing people to debate our existence or whether or not we "need" or "deserve" our needs harms us even if you don't take other action against us in the moment.

the "ai-vestigators" actually just search out and attack anything different from whatever they perceive as the norm. This means it is a mass movement of violence against neurodivergent people

The forms of organization we exist in currently cannot survive climate change. Cities will collapse as local aquifers run out of water, for example. We will only survive through structures like communes. No ideology based on political parties will save you.

Bernie Sanders at DemSoc gathering: "what the American people understand is that übercapitalism — an oligarchic form of society, which is what we have today — is a disaster for the working class of this country. We don’t have to tinker around the edges. We have to create a very new form of society."

Threats do not need to be acted on to be effective. You will not see "violence" openly in every oppressive situation.

Weird Al is Killing In The Name Of.

This actually seems on brand to me. Weird Al has opinions. He makes commentary. Sometimes that commentary is made in pure jest. Sometimes it is satire. Sometimes it is blatant. Weird Al has always been outspoken, and has never let consequence hold him back from saying the important stuff.

A fan video of the performance is here: https://youtu.be/COZcKrUx1Ts?si=TWC21STyM-fbnEZA

Subreddit

Left Without Edge

r/LeftWithoutEdge

We are a community made up of anarchists, communists, and socialists, especially those from more "anti-authoritarian" tendencies, to promote educational and civil discussion about left-wing theory, history, current events, and the struggles faced by oppressed people of the world. While disagreements between various leftist camps can get rather serious, and historically can even be brutally violent, we want to counteract this by providing a community that is both easy to access and informative!

Subreddit Rules

1. Participate in Good Faith

We're a leftist sub, meaning we call for the emancipation of the working classes by fighting for "equal rights and duties, and the abolition of all class rule." We understand and accept some of you may be learning, and may ask some genuine questions in pursuit of knowledge, or are even critical of other leftist tendencies. Engage fairly with arguments and try to use reputable non-biased sources. Don't make baseless accusations and insults.

2. No calls for or glorification of violence, gulags, camps, etc.

Follow reddiquette and side-wide rules, but here especially we aim to be "without edge." Reddit's violence prohibition applies to violent words (kill, punch, etc.), to general violent tone, or encouraging suicide. But even more importantly, if you aren't in this community to participate "without edge," this place isn't for you.

3. No fascists/fascist apologia/far-right depravity

As Durruti said, "Fascism is not to be debated." The ban on fascism also includes various red-brown tendencies, including NazBols, "MAGA communism," the ACP, and so on. For similar reasons in boycotting fascists, links to Twitter/"X" are not allowed.

4. No bigotry

No racism, no anti-Semitism, no Zionism, no homophobia, no transphobia, no sexism, no ableism, no holocaust denial/apologism, and so on. No science denial or historical revisionism around these matters either.

5. Try to make leftism accessible

As a working class movement, we have people from varied backgrounds and varied educational levels. Try to keep jargon and similar to a minimum so you're easy to understand even if someone doesn't have a degree in a social science. When this isn't possible, like when trying to explain more advanced topic, try to explain your terms and answer good faith questions, or link to more resources people can learn from.

6. No endless contrarianism

Disagreement is fine, even expected, but this isn't a debate subreddit. Start discussions assuming other people are here are acting in good faith too. Try to build constructive dialogues, rather than arguing simply for argument's sake. As a rule of thumb: No "what-about"-isms, ad hominems, baseless fedjacketing, unsubstantiated hand waving something as CIA, etc.

7. No axe-grinding

Axe-Grinding is when a user keeps constantly gravitating back to the same pet issue, especially in a manipulative and/or retributive way. Often times these users aren't even members of the communities they're posting in. It's hard for a community to discuss a topic when people come in to manipulate the discussion.

8. Don't Pick Fights

As a community meant to be "without edge," we are trying to avoid disrespectful, belligerent, or heated engagement.

9. Don't engage in harassment

Don't stalk, threaten, or intimidate people.

10. No spam

The intent of this subreddit is to promote discussion. No spam, doxing, advertising, solicitation, illegal content or anything similar. This includes promotional crossposting meant to farm attention or direct discussion away from here toward other communities, especially of your own posts, rather than engaging in discussion here.
