I think a lot of western leftism is less focused on building a movement and more on carving out little leftists enclaves where you can LARP like you’re living in a post-capitalist society. And the thing is, it’s easier to do that under a bourgeois liberal democracy than a AES state. The bourgeois don’t care about your zucchini farming commune, have fun fuckers it’s not challenge to our power. The Party Chairman who’s survived 3 assassination attempts this year alone is maybe within his rights to suspect your utopian commune could become a CIA gun smuggling front and may shut it down.
Anyway that’s why I think certain “anti-authoritarian leftists” defend western liberal democracy, internally they’re a more welcoming space for social experimentation.
Literally a running joke in my town is the only time you have to lock your car doors is late summer because otherwise you’ll come back from a store and one of your neighbors will have left 5 pounds of zucchini on your passenger seat.
I don’t remember exactly but one guy wanted to use the patron money to start a brewery, don’t remember if he actually did it. I think the others released an episode or two where they talk about it. IIRC all the episodes are on archive.org somewhere
Nah they just slurp up US state department propaganda thats served to them like it’s candy. They really think AES states are indistinguishable from fascism and that the US is good but flawed and just needs some reforms.

they wanna do leftism like craft microbreweries
At least microbreweries make some decent beers sometimes, a lot of these communes can’t even grow fucking zucchini right.
If you can’t grow zucchini you live in the antarctic or the ocean and even then I wouldn’t be surprised if those fuckers thrived there as well.

And our second most profitable crop is rocks.
Do we share the same garden?
this would be funny if it wasn’t literally what happened to proles of the round table
What actually happened to them? I’ve seen them mentioned on and off as podcasts to listen to but never knew the lore behind what happened
they’re back and they released an episode explaining it
