Hi friends and comrades! What are you working on these days? I’m really interested in praxis and in new ideas of what to do in real life to advance towards a solarpunk future.

Hope you’re all well!

    I suppose yeah I understand what you mean. Especially in the US there is a lot of political tribalism and extreme polarisation, and honestly it has one of the most extreme cases of anticommunist propaganda where something as basic as free healthcare will be seen as “evil communism”. Regarding your article, go for it. Clearly you identified some kind of issue that needs addressing and that article you want to make is your reaction to it. What I am trying to say is that the fact that you even want to make the article is already its justification :)

    Also slightly unrelated but this reminds me of “radical centrism” where you basically take any extreme idea that sounds good no matter what side its from, be it communism or nazism.

      Haha that’s a good point thanks. I’m glad this conversation ended on a good note.

      Interesting! I’ll have to look into that.
