I was thinking, we have a bunch of weekly megathreads that cover certain topics like trans megas, em poc megas, news megas, a reading club, etc
It got me thinking, what if we had another mega that gave people weekly organising and unionising tips? Like every week they could highlight a good leftist org or union and give people some basic tips on how to do some praxis and strengthen the western left.
I want to do it myself, but I don’t know much about the subject myself, and I already have university assignments sapping me of my effort for that kind of thing.
But I just thought it was a good idea, and if anyone has the time and energy to make a weekly org thread, I say go for it.
Especially because recently liberals have been going “There is no alternative to voting, how do you possibly plan to get anything done?” we can say “this.”
A lot of libs don’t know how to organise or fall into despair when they realise the system is rigged because they don’t see a way out. We can show them how organised leftists have done it in the past and what orgs to trust. Give people some hope.
I’d be interested in seeing this.
I think it would help a lot of people.
I curse myself for being too busy and too ADHD to do it reliably.
Feel that, I’ve got ADHD too. If the thread does get made I may try to make a few posts in it, I’ve done some online mutual aid stuff at least.
We ADHD folk gotta stick together and organize.
Sometime…
