    Back to those communication skills.

      I tend to communicate with direct action, rather than trying to sway people materially aligned against me with words.

      It’s one thing to say you support things and vote, it’s another to actually show up to organize and fight for those things.

          I’m in a communist party, I do local organizing, get people out on picket lines, run food distributions.

          I do other stuff that I would not post about online as well.

            You sound like the other guy. Alt account I’m guessing?

              nope, just another random user, we have a lot of overlap in politics though as you can tell

                So tell me something that someone else has done that you didn’t do but maybe would give me an idea of the kind of things you might have done but certainly aren’t admitting to…

                    I’m guessing you’re the type to encourage the releasing of bears in a libertarian camp?
