An independent socialist and workers’ rights community.
This community represents my own vision of what a Socialist Workers Party should be. It stands in firm opposition to both the Democratic and Republican parties, which serve the capitalist system while offering the working class little more than temporary concessions.
Real liberation will require workers to organize, challenge exploitation, and build a system based on dignity, equality, and democratic control.
I agree with some positions expressed by the U.S. Socialist Workers Party, especially on workers’ rights, unions, labor struggles, and class politics. I also value some of The Militant’s labor coverage. That does not mean I support every position held by the party or publication, including their views on Israel, Palestine, or other political issues.
This is an independent Lemmy community, not an official branch, affiliate, or representative of the U.S. Socialist Workers Party.

Really interesting in-depth article about how shadow library sites like LibGen came to be and why they matter.
Breaks down the history and shows how helpful LibGen is for regular folks and us amateur scientists who just want to learn without hitting paywalls.
