Curious about non-tankie leftism? If you've got a little patience for 19th century academic style, let a little Marx and Kropotkin be your primer!

Lenin was relatively progressive on the matter of LGBT folk. Stalin? Not so much. (infosec.pub)

Hey, I'm at least as annoyed as you. I think the biggest thing between the US and gas chambers at the moment is a combination of MAGA incompetence and cowardice versus an armed populace, but the more this drags on, the more the "armed populace" part thoughts seem self-serving.

Personally, I've had 11+ years to get over caring about gun rights in whatever country I might move to, and boy howdey, you better believe I'm over it.
