BONUS:
“There are songs from the past that I no longer feel comfortable singing. I love ‘Run Like Hell’. I loved the music I created for it, but all that ‘You’d better run, run, run…’ I now find that all rather, I don’t know… a bit terrifying and violent.”
That’s the point of the song, Gilmour! You worked on the album! lol
The guitarist added: “‘Another Brick In The Wall’ is another one I shan’t be doing. I don’t think I’ve done that with my own band, but I certainly did it in the post-Roger Pink Floyd, against my better judgment. The same with ‘Money’. I won’t be doing that.”
He probably unironically believes the things Money is poking fun at. lol

I do hope they vote out their leadership since workers were allowed to cross the picketline to help load military weapons.

"I was in Nicaragua with the Sandinistas. I've argued for Leonard Peltier, Mumia Abu-Jamal, the United Farm Workers. I've been a radical for a long time. I guess it's too bad. I'd be more marketable as a right-wing redneck. But I got into this to tell the truth as I saw it."

I have no idea why they had him on and it wasn't a good idea, but I do think you're being a little too harsh on Will and Felix. They're very much anti-zionists and have had numerous activists on the pod to talk about Palestine. In fact, they still talk about it when most popular podcasts now talk about it less. I think Will in particular has moved further left since the show began especially post 2020 election.

Wild that you’re comparing revolutionary optimism to self help books. I’ll have to let Fred Hampton, Mao Zedong and Ho Chi Minh know.
“The most immediate antidote to nihilism is revolutionary optimism. Revolutionary optimism isn’t rooted in a blind hope that change will come at some unknown point in the future. It is cultivated by the acknowledgement that only through participation in the struggle to liberate the people can the lives of the people be transformed. Revolutionary optimism is bolstered by a deep curiosity in and knowledge of the history of class struggle. Social change is treated as a science, one with distinct properties and elements that are both inevitable and profoundly dependent upon the actions taken by the people.”

Lotta lib comments here so I’ll reiterate again: REVOLUTIONARY OPTIMISM IS ESSENTIAL!
Really funny that people here are bashing JT’s video considering the positive work he does educating and encouraging people to join orgs and be active.

For those who don’t know, Beau of the Fifth Column is a fairly popular “leftist” YouTuber who makes videos sympathetic to power under the guise of radicalism and about a month ago he decided to step down from his channel due to being “overworked” with his wife taking his place. I find it very interesting he decided to do it around the time his history as a human trafficker has started to really gain traction in online spaces. The two can’t POSSIBLY be connected, right?

Respectfully disagree with the mods decision to delete this. Equating Hasan with AOC is an ignorant statement to make due to evidence him being far more radical than her. Thus any attempt for me to reply to their argument in good faith, I feel, is tainted from the get-go.

I don’t take issue with him because he’s constantly attacking the dems, raising money for Palestine, was a guest on the Deprogram, and straight up said in a recent stream that “the revolution won’t be voted in”.

Even Hasan would agree with this analysis lol.
That being said, he did say in a recent stream that “you aren’t going to vote the revolution in” so I’d say he’s more then a “treatbrained streamer”.

[I originally posted this in chapotraphouse, but it was deleted for being “pro-cop” even though that very much wasn’t the case. (I believe PSL was actually involved in organizing the protest if I’m not mistaken.) The mod that deleted it openly broke the sectarian rule too.] Been seeing a lot of people hating on what the protest marshals did during the pro-Gaza protests at the DNC and I feel they definitely did the right thing. Instigating stuff like going up against the cops under the guise of “revolutionary” action just gets a lot of people arrested and doesn’t accomplish anything. EDIT: Users who were present at the protests have said, counter to what is claimed in the screenshot, that the protest marshals did NOT call for the police. Thank you for clearing this up, comrades!
I understand why it isn’t used anymore, but for the sake of posting and reaching more people, it needs to come back.
