Revleft Convention

[anarcho-communist4]

What if, and keep the what if in mind, someone managed to set up a convention for revlefters from all over the world. What do you think would happen?
Personally i think we are just too bound to one leftist ideology or another to get along with each other, outside of the internet.
Fist fights or, pissing contests would ensue.

Would you attend?

[¿Que?]

I would attend if it was nearby or around a time when I'd be traveling. So unlikely, really.

[anarcho-communist4]

Either way i think it would be a pretty interesting social experiment. Hundreds of people with "basically" the same idea for society just different means of getting to it, or organizing to get to it. I'm also wondering if put into a real life social situation would any of us get along? I.e. Stalinists, and Anarchists?

[thesadmafioso]

I'd probably attend as an impartial observer, just to witness the chaos unfold. I could just imagine the Stalinist clique and the Trotskyist clique getting into a fist fight with a bunch of anarchists and left coms laughing on the sidelines.

[anarcho-communist4]

I think thats just outright silly that, that would happen. But i also think that would happen lol. Could we all actually get along as human beings, not as revolutionaries. Do our political ideologies change us that much that we couldn't enjoy the company of a fellow leftist?

Or would it just end up being a glorified, semi-organized bar fight?

[Bad Grrrl Agro]

I'd probably go and I'll bring the sexxxi. Also, I honestly think my line is not drawn by authoritarian or anti-authoritarian but by sex-positive or not.

[LegendZ]

Worst idea ever. Besides having the CIA taking pictures and making a profile on everyone there. What would we talk about? What would we do? How long before the convention turns into a shitfest?

[Impulse97]

This sounds a lot like the party idea i suggested a few days ago....

[anarcho-communist4]

Its a "what if" situation, you know a hypothetical. Don't nitpick lol.
Oh and thats what im wondering, if we could actually get along in a real life situation, without hitting each other.

[Bad Grrrl Agro]

Eh, some part in me hopes that wouldn't happen.

Forget about tendencies in the spirit of anti-capitalist unity. This system needs to be brought down immediately.

Y'all know if someone brought H, they'd likely get special treatment from me.

[Jazzratt]

No. Revleft is a multi-tendency discussion forum with no real purpose or direction. Most of its members fall into factions viciously opposed to each other and there really isn't much that can be achieved by having a meet-up, save perhaps bringing the more reticent members out of their shells.

What I would do, and have done, is attend events and the like attended by other revlefters and/or mentioned in our forums. This is both more useful politically and a much better way of meeting revlefters if that's your bag.

[Susurrus]

Just wait until the end then give everyone a foam sword.

[Vladimir Innit Lenin]

Jazzratt sums it up nicely.

If people who share political/personal outlooks want to form a meeting group from Revleft, then that's all good and well and is a positive for the website.

But as Jazz says, this is a multi-tendency - multi-ideology even - discussion board. Many people here already belong to one organisation or another. What's the point in having some convention on top of all that, especially if you'll get anarchists and Stalinists coming together. Literally no point.

[Lyev]

it would be awkward as hell too; have you read some of the things that people post here? They're probably all social recluses

[AnonymousOne]

No. The whole anonymity thing would be kind of ruined. :/

[Arlekino]

Absolutely I would attend why should we hide online al the time. We need join together struggles and I do like peoples crowds, fed up sitting online all time I need left wing human contact. So I am in if I can afford to travel. :):

[ellipsis]

All the cool users already have mini-conventions.

[A Revolutionary Tool]

I'd probably go and I'll bring the sexxxi. Also, I honestly think my line is not drawn by authoritarian or anti-authoritarian but by sex-positive or not.
I have no idea what this is, what are you talking about?

I think if it was like a giant BBQ or Comic con then everything could go just fine but if it's like a convention where we actually talk about politics and stuff...
I'd bring my camera to film the chaos that ensues.

[Nothing Human Is Alien]

Personally i think we are just too bound to one leftist ideology or another to get along with each other, outside of the internet.
Fist fights or, pissing contests would ensue.I've met several people from the site, often with much different politics. Nothing like that ever occurred.

[Nothing Human Is Alien]

I think if it was like a giant BBQ or Comic con then

Commie Con?

Will there be Stalin impersonators and vendors selling DPRK paraphernalia?

[anarcho-communist4]

There could be fun games like, who has the thickest neck beard!

[Bad Grrrl Agro]

I have no idea what this is, what are you talking about?

I was referring to the fact that the only "leftists" I can't stand are the ones who try and bring moralistic bullshit into leftist ideologies. It is kind of hard to explain but when I heard "leftists" criticizing women for dressing "provocatively" or another example "leftists" who make the same criticisms of the slutwalks. If that is left, I ain't.

Yes, yes there will be. Upon entrance you will be given a free Che shirt and a bottle of Leninade.

I don't know my aunt has a pretty thick neck beard :laugh:. But seriously she does :(

Why is this in Politics?

[Bad Grrrl Agro]

I don't know my aunt has a pretty thick neck beard :laugh:. But seriously she does :(
Good point, but most of us don't. How about a game of hit the cop car with a brick?

[Bad Grrrl Agro]

Why is this in Politics?
Yeah, why is this in politics? I'm finding this conversation entertaining though...

[Os Cangaceiros]

There wouldn't be any fights or anything silly like that. If anything political disagreements between individuals are far more civil in real life than they are on the internet. That's because you realize that you're actually talking to someone else, rather than just annoying words on a screen.

[ExUnoDisceOmnes]

I'll bring my neighbors cop car. But seriously I'm down with that.

[anarcho-communist4]

Sorry about putting it in politics if this is the wrong place. Didn't know where to put it. But i can fall under that topic. I mean this was about if we could get along due to our political ideologies, so in a way it fits.

And women can participate in the neckbeard contest

Oh and revolutionary look alike contests.

[Threetune]

It would be good to be at a party with a group of such interesting people and have a talk about how to stop the famines wars and general cynical pessimistic alienated fashion of self indulgent youth.
I would bring a bottle. X

[Bad Grrrl Agro]

Oh and revolutionary look alike contests.
I would totally dress up as Tania (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamara_Bunke)! But it wouldn't be long before I'm topless. That is a substance using issue.

Hells yeah, that will probably be at the end of the night when the convention goers decide to march down the street with our banners and such. What type of leftist gathering would be complete without a march? Then we can have fun the next day getting online and debating whether or not we should have rioted, who's fault it was, and whether or not the people who started it are actually undercover cops.

[ComradeGrant]

I would so be down for this, despite my lack of neck beard. Or any other facial hair really.

[Zeus the Moose]

I get along with other people easily. My legs are like a public park, open to everyone. lol

But only open between sunrise and sunset?

Addressing the question a bit more seriously, online communities like Reddit have meetups, so I don't see why RevLeft couldn't have something like that too. And Redditors probably have more differences than RevLefters. I think it'd be interesting.

[black magick hustla]

i´ve met some people in here already, it has been pleasant. most of revleft is lame as hell though. but i think there are a few posters i am willing to meet and make some small sacrifices for such a meeting to happen

Why Oregon? Is that just to make sure we get a good turnout from the Hipster Communists? :lol:

Well I said "sausage-fest", and if you have a sausage then you have a sausage. The term "excuse me" would imply you don't have a sausage.


Male (♂) refers to the sex (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender) of an organism, or part of an organism, which produces small mobile gametes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamete), called spermatozoa (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spermatozoon). Each spermatozoon can fuse with a larger female (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Female) gamete or ovum (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ovum), in the process of fertilization (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fertilization). A male cannot reproduce sexually (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_reproduction) without access to at least one ovum from a female, but some organisms can reproduce both sexually and asexually.When you seize to have a sausage you technically not be a male. However, there is nothing wrong with being Transexual and still having a penis. And for the sake of RevLeft political correctness I still refer to Transsexuals with penises as "she".

[Libertador]

When you seize to have a sausage you technically not be a male. Your sex is biologically defined and you can't do shit about it. Your gender is influenced by the society and culture in which you live.

Also, wtf. I love you man but castrated eunuchs are still considered male.

[Bad Grrrl Agro]

My body is a biological half and half, not that you need to know, I was born with a variation of both. And by the way I am vegetarian.

[agnixie]

Your sex is biologically defined and you can't do shit about it. Your gender is influenced by the society and culture in which you live.

Also, wtf. I love you man but castrated eunuchs are still considered male.

Actually sex is a very poorly defined scientific concept as none of the definitions actually correspond entirely to what they're trying to say (chromosomes don't need to correspond, gamete production causes issues, chemical balance is another weird one, etc; sex is really a very poor attempt at making a double peaked curve look like a binary distribution). Nice try though.

Also I'd probably only show up for the lulz or something, no way it could end well.

This I would win. I look like Thoreau crossed with Marx. Sadly I haven't the Engles 'stache.:(

I was always very entertained by the fact that the "intersex" category seems to merely exist as a massive elephant in the room of variations that aren't really so far removed from "normal", and IMO are perfectly logical when you consider human development. But no, they're not worth the bother apparently, except for disgusting eugenicists.

[agnixie]

Fuck. Then we're just...human?

I guess human; tbh, given the way some researchers think there might be quite a few genders, I'm not really surprised the conclusion sometimes leads to "things are more complicated than we thought". I need to dig up a PhD thesis in biology from France that's actually fascinating; it's a study of various aspects of human development through history and a large part of the conclusion is basically that much sexual dimorphism in humans is the result of long term social effects. And by long term, they mean very very long term, the author's formation seems to have been palaeoanthropology; human plasticity is really impressive as hell.

It was apparently saluted with the highest honors, more or less published as is and prized on top of the Magna Cum Laude.

-Hannah Kay makes DIY delicious drinks from some rocks and dust.
-Explosive Situation makes delicious Salmon gourmet treats
-Noxion is in a lab coat, checking his calculations of the meeting growth and entropy.

-RS2K appears with COTR at his side,greeted with a roar of applause
-Banned members appear wearing giant socks and carrying puppets - they are rounded up in a gulag pre-prepared by Jazzrat

Would you attend a rev left convention?
No.
Also isn't this full of enough spam posts to merit a move to chit-chat by now?

I'd probably attend as an impartial observer, just to witness the chaos unfold. I could just imagine the Stalinist clique and the Trotskyist clique getting into a fist fight with a bunch of anarchists and left coms laughing on the sidelines.

Almost sounds a bit too Napoleonic for a convention of leftists, but alright. I for one welcome our new mathematical equation overlords. Then again I may just be speaking from a bias for my human form and out of a fear of being morphed into something other.

We could host the RevLeft chess tournament as well!

Or maybe pass the entire convention off as a "Chess Convention"?

There could be rooms and lectures dedicated to various "Chess masters" like XRAM, NINEL, YKSTORT, NILATS and OAM to name a few and seminars on "Chess technique" like EKIRTS, TOIR, NOITULOVER and just for Agent Ducky, NOSRA.

As a bonus, the LEFTIST spelling should confound any right-wingers intent upon crashing our party as the room labeled "Revolutionary Marxism" will have only a TV playing Fox News for the CIA agents.

The revleft convention

-People arrive at a deviation of 6 hrs to the datetime agreed upon. Reserved hotel rooms are out.Tents and campfires emerge and the local tea party movements rally against "those damn commies".They disperse after a spontaneous orgy planned to counter the teapartiers.
-Malte shows up wearing a King's outfit and a scepter with a golden che's head at its grip.
-The convention starts,he sits on a throne,with mods and admins around him,and insists on being called "my liege".
-At this time, RL members log on to revleft and create threads in members' forum about teh hierarchy and lack of democracy in the convention
-Mods yell out "verbal warning" IRL and admins scream 'closed!' at discussions they don't like.TC is ousted from the convention for mysterious reasons.
-There's literally nothing to talk about
-As ppl try to initiate a conversation, every topic results in a tendency war between trots/stalinists , anarchists/everyone else
-The Vegan Marxist throws around science news bulletins screaming "support NK"!
-Rosa,participating incognito, waits patiently for hours,listening through her highly advanced audio pattern recognition system, that detects the word "dialectics", ready to assault.
-Sam B sits in a corner grumpily murmuring "those damn kids"
-August West strolls around,throwing little pieces of paper behind him
with "-August" written on them. xD
-RedAnarchist is doing fine - this situation is way easier than moderating chit chat
-Fuserg9 plays ball outside,not giving a fuck :D
-psycho is doing the lotus stance on the roof of the building,hovering a few feet above ground, trying to sense any fascist presence nearby
-AttackGR sets up a defence perimeter with proximity molotov mines
-Hannah Kay makes DIY delicious drinks from some rocks and dust.
-Explosive Situation makes delicious Salmon gourmet treats
-Noxion is in a lab coat, checking his calculations of the meeting growth and entropy.
-Q is trying to set up the microphones and music by coding drivers from scratch.He fails, and all speakers play the brown noise making the revleft convention full of shit (literally,this time)
-Kassad is busy being awesome.
-RS2K appears with COTR at his side,greeted with a roar of applause
-Banned members appear wearing giant socks and carrying puppets - they are rounded up in a gulag pre-prepared by Jazzrat

All the cool users already have mini-conventions.
Thanks for making me feel terrible that the Fl get together fell through. :lol:

And no, I wouldn't attend. But if i did I'd imagine I'd walk around bored out of my mind until I found the interesting people here, which would be followed by getting shit faced and passing out. A few hours later, as is my incredibly horrible habit, I would wake up with can only be described as the sensation of an axe in the back of your head. I'd then leave, grabbing my coat and scarf, there would probably still be a trot and Ml going back and forth like they had been all night and Miles and CotR would be still up playing poker. I'd then head down to the nearest coffee shop where I'd imagine Bilan would already be, chatting it up with Nic. I'd drink coffee and attempt to do a crossword for the next six hours.

If the convention were to be an ideal location 9.67% of the users would be able to attend immediately.
35% of the users on this forum are aged from 16-21, I would say 2% of them could make it.
Alot of RLers are on minimum wage or are on a tight budget so flying there wouldn't be an option for lets say 70% of them.

Another 3% for people who can't leave their families.

One of those people on there is me. I'm currently loling at that one Stalinist and the guy who says "anti-sovietism is anti-communism"

I know the Stalinist and the Tankie, lol. The tankie got banned from here a while ago and I'm not sure if the Stalinist is on here.

I bet it's pretty obvious who I am on there, lolol. I dunno.

I find most of the people on this forum annoying enough just reading their posts - I don't know I could take meeting them IRL, especially the ones who would bother going to a "Revleft Convention".

Fawkes, we're gonna have to ask you to change your avatar- or take the pants off. They're far too recognizable.










I'm joking don't do it

You know, we could start a riot or revolution, maybe mix it with orgies and bsdm, drugs included.

I've hardly been on this site for over a year, it's no surprise the noobs don't recognise me.

Yes, I was thinking of making myself one again now that the hysteria over them has died down.

I decided I'll sport my leopard spotted thong so I can show you all my jellyfish tattoos. Btw, I look like the irl Hiei from Yu Yu Hakusho except taller.

I am still waiting for my animated gif avatar to get the treatment. :D

To users asking who the hell this guy is: AB used to post a lot more regularly and has survived many purges, I am sure he was in the CC too. He made a series of avatars that perhaps a dozen or so users at that time.

The better question is who are you?

[Dzerzhinsky's Ghost]

I'm new but I'd go to some Revleft convention, I assume it'd be a BYOB.

Well, the thing is, I've been wearing these pants for the last 23 months. I was eating a really large bacon cheeseburger and I pulled a Ross Geller and started sweating and ever since they've been too tight to come off.
