Obligatory Introduction

[Rooiakker]

Hello Revleft.

I'm an Green-Socialist, first came into the left community through Anarcho-Syndicalism.

I'm really tired of greed based politics, and hope to learn some things I can use against my libertarian enemies.

I'm disabled and don't believe that it makes me any less valuable to society, which is apparently the most radical of things to the right wing.

I support using high technology to solve problems, and honestly rather despise primitivist politics. Also I am vegan.

TL;DR: Hi, I'm a socialist techno-vegan.

Welcome :)

If you have political questions, you can ask them in the Learning forum. That's why it's there after all!

If you have questions about your account, don't hesitate to send me a PM or ask here.

Welcome!

I have aspergers so I'm also generally viewed as useless by society so I can definitely relate to you on that bit.

Yep, and because my skills are purely academic based they don't view me as useful. I couldn't do manual labour if I tried. All my previous jobs were in fast food, I couldn't even do that. I have brains, I need to be using them.

Welcome, Green Socıalısm :thumbup1:

Welcome comrade! It appears you have extremely similar views to those of my own. Are you still an anarcho-syndicalist?

Hi! I also support maintaining the planet in hopes of greener pastures but at the same time I support technology for the purpose of deflecting asteroids. I don't like asteroids.

Hi, welcome to Revleft :)

Asteroids are terrible.

Skybutton, I think Anarcho-Syndicalism has it's place, but I don't know that I'd refer to it as my primary political identity. I guess you could say that I've become more pessimistic about anarchism because our society is rather immature. Anarchism would be great under certain conditions, and terrible under others. I want to make the world a place where anarchism is more likely to be a great thing, and... basically NOT Anarcho-Capitalism. Ancaps are a personal pet peeve of mine.

My ex is an an-cap so I feel your pain.
