  1. Hello, everyone! My name is Serena, and I'm a communist. I'm interested in meeting other communists and furthering our understanding of Marxism together.

    Equally, and perhaps to an even greater degree, I'd like to talk to people who do not think of themselves as communists, but recognise that capitalism is unsustainable, even failing. I can't speak for everyone, but in my experience, this recognition is incredibly demoralising and even depressing, if it is not accompanied by at least a basic understanding of Marxism and at least low-stakes political organising. I hope to be able to help people afflicted by this depression see that a better world is not only possible, but will very soon present us with an opportunity to make it a reality.

    And to those of you who make extensive use of the fediverse's content warnings: not to worry, I'll do that too. Putting something upsetting or depressing (anything describing how badly capitalism is working right now, for example) in front of you before you have time to decide whether or not to read it — this is one of the ways that bourgeois social networks harm you and get you hooked on doomscrolling. It will have no place on my profile. #introduction #communism #Marxism #politics #socialism #USpol #USPolitics #CAPol #CDNpoli

  9. Donald Trump and the GOP continue to run our country into the ground.

  19. The notion that breaking up PG&E will lower costs is illusory. Rural customers' rates would skyrocket because more urban areas in the same customer class lower the cost allocation to the rural ones. Moving to publicly owned utilities--like SF is trying to do for a few years (decades) now--still means that PG&E has to be paid fair market value for the condemned assets. While it sounds nice to break up a monopoly (which is really the wires-side of their business), it will result in some major cost allocation changes to customers.
