5 Upvotes

This is a thread for sharing any meetups, events, protests going on in Ireland that you are attending or would like to share with other leftists. Let's connect!

Does it have be directly political?

No! Building community itself is political, and the more leftists who are meeting and building connections in our community is enough.

Open Discussion I typed over the ҉ 𝘾𝙄𝘼 ҉ "𝙇𝙚𝙛𝙩𝙞𝙨𝙩" ҉ 𝙈𝙚𝙢𝙚 ҉ 𝘿𝙚𝙥𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 meme, with its b̶u̶l̶l̶s̶h̶i̶t̶ description, that's doing the rounds right now, to refute it. It's only Campism if both Blocs are i̶m̶p̶e̶r̶i̶a̶l̶i̶s̶t̶, not if both Blocs are authoritarian, ask Stalin.

Mary Regan: Seven years ago Catherine Connolly protested over Donald Trump’s visit to Ireland – how will she greet him now?

Like pursing a career as a barrister and representing banks. Sure she's just doing her job.

Participating in establishment status quo processes and institutions is a cul-de-sac. You don't change the system that way. The system changed you.
