Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

i don't doubt your willingness, i doubt your ability and effectiveness; you can't plan and fight something that your environment won't let you see.
the m/l methods i'm using to fight the ruling class have proven to be durable enough to outlast 2 centuries worth of varying incarnations of multiple ruling classes and benefits from the writings of "lessons learned" from people that have tried (and failed) various strategies in those last 2 centuries.
ignoring these "lessons learned" and advocating for further rounds of try-and-fail strategies against opponents who HAVE taken to heart their own "lessons learned" is not going to make difference.
if you want to fight the ruling class effectively, read m/l theory and apply it to your life.
Well, I doubt your ability as well. All I see you doing is accepting a fascist government, and being a hypocrite. Which is why no one takes you guys seriously.
i wish that were true since that would mean the likes of malcom x, or fred hampton, or MLK jr could still be alive imparting needful wisdom upon the american popular consciousness; or that institutions like the school of the americas, the imf, or the icc would not need to exist; or that needless violent & bloody conflicts like the korean, vietnamese, both iraqi, afghani or ukranian wars would not need to happen; or that episodes like cia induced regime changes and the extra judicial arrests & suppression of the politically active students that's happening now, wouldn't need to be a thing.
instead; as history has already proven; we're going to end up with increasing levels of fascism thanks to propaganda induced ignorance coupled with the wilful ignorance on display here, that perpetuates doom scrolling and the despair that makes the people within your ranks checkout/disengage from the political process that enable political victories for likes of trump, or poilievre, or le pen, or weidel, or meloni, etc.
You wish what was true? I think you’ve lost track and are just doing that thing ML does where they ramble on and on as a way to shut the conversation down.
I’m not going to say that the US government is good, or better, than another government. I’m not going to excuse them for anything.
The reason no one takes most ML seriously is because of hypocrisy they spew. The constant belittlement of “western” society meanwhile blindly ignoring similar atrocities in the east.
Perhaps you’re different?
Do you agree that greed, tyranny and authoritarian rule should be exposed and opposed regardless of where it is from? That there is no excuse whatsoever for a government to impose such power on its citizens? Whether that country is the US or Russia, or North Korea, or China?
even maga agrees that greed, tyranny and authoritarian rule should be exposed and opposed and i wish you were different; this is little more than hypocrisy that liberals spew to make themselves feel superior to maga.
that list you willfully lost track of is definitive proof that our ruling class considers us to be their only true threat and your disregard for it is classic way that liberals shut down the conversation; there's no way to tell the truth to heavily propagandized people without it sounding like belittlement.
Tell me the truth in a single sentence and then hit send.
