Pragmatic Leftist Theory


Name
PLT
Description
The neolibs are too far right. The tankies are doing whatever *that* is. Where's the space for the people who *want* fully-automated-luxury-gay-space-communism, but realize that it's gonna take a while and there are lots of steps between now and then? Here. This is that space. Here, people should endeavor to discuss and devise practical, actionable leftist action. Vote lesser evil while you build grassroots coalitions. Unionize your workplace. Participate in SRAs. Build cohesion your local community. Educate the proletariat. This is a place for practical people to develop practical plans to implement stable, incremental improvement. If you're dead-set on drumming up all 18,453 True Leftists® into spontaneous Revolution, go somewhere else. The grown ups are talking. Rules: -1. Don't be a dick. Racism, sexism, other assorted bigotries, you know the drill. At least *try* to default to mutually respectful discussion. We're all on the same side here, unless you aren't, in which case kindly leave. -2. Don't be a tankie. Yes I'm sure you have an extensive knowledge of century-old theory. There's been a century of history since then. Things didn't shake out as expected, maybe consider the possibility that a different angle of attack might be more effective in light of new data. -3. Be practical. No one on the left benefits from counterproductive actions. This is a space *informed* by, not *enslaved* to, ideology. Promoting actions that are fundamentally untenable in the system in question, because they fulfill a sense of ideological purity, is a bad look. Don't do that.
