  • The growth of the revolution will not be linear. This is especially true when the largest formations that currently exist are heavily revisionist. It could be worth joining to learn the basic skills of a communist: how to organize, how to accept criticism, how to engage in ideological struggle. The only way to develop ideological and practically is to actually engage in struggle and not merely fence sit; “to read too many books is harmful.” Joining mindfully and validating your frustration with revisionism is going to teach you a lot more than web browsing.













  • I started dating a partnered poly guy a while ago when I wasn’t in the place for a really serious relationship, but eventually got more stable and developed more serious feelings. I don’t consider myself poly but have grown a lot during this relatjonship. Now his girlfriend is increasingly resentful of me and has actively started antagonizing me out of jealousy. She has several other partners and they and my bf get along well, but now says she is into ‘parallel poly’ and does not want to interact with me at all. This feels very hypocritical/cake-eatery/‘rules for thee and not for me’. It puts me in a crappy space because our social circles interlap significantly and it makes my relationship with our bf and shared friends more difficult.

    I could use advice finding the appropriate way to share this realization with my bf because I recognize my bias and conflict of interest.
