Similar situation here. For me instead of a 9-5 keeping me busy, it's my state of health being a constant obstacle in daily life. Most organizations have no set way for new members to get familiar, making it even harder for me to find my bearings. Let alone physically ever attending meetings etc.

Online I tried to get in touch to help with leftist media, but I was politely rejected after being upfront about my physical limitations.

Praxis for me now is just talking to friends who are left leaning, and continuing to educate myself. I just have little energy to do anything else, and it is frustrating.

Others already mentioned most of the same thoughts I had (accurate for the time, Spanish Civil War) but it was annoying to see the "nuclear bombing of Japan saved lives" thing perpetuated. Not a word of the Soviet front in Manchuria. Was to be expected of a Hollywood movie, but still disappointing.

Silver lining was that the movie through Oppenheimer shows the realization of what absolute horrors the bombings were, and by extent the horror of nuclear war.

Now how do we trick the rest of them to get onto submarines too?

This is so devoid of thought I don't even have anything to say

Time is wasted on the Dutch "socialist" subreddit anyway. Ultra and leftcom moderators regularly remove articles about Holodomor and China there. They are not very fond of ML's

It's definitely from the Reddit exodus. I made my account around the time GZD got quarantained, but did not do much with it because TheDeprogram got big. Now Reddit really fucked up and most 3rd party app users are jumping ship, myself included.

Yet they still join, are briefly outraged, and then do nothing but complain

Does not bother KMW manufacturing. They gladly sell more tanks to the German state, paid for with tax money to donate to Ukraine

Welcome home comrade

Not being on Reddit but still being in the company of you comrades is a breath of fresh air. Good to be here
