Yeah, there’s definitely a shift towards more reactionaries now on Reddit. People saying the French Revolution was bad and monarchist comments in the soccer sub.

I can start a bit: workers.org is affiliated with the Workers World Party

And for the suggested German ones: “junge Welt” is ranging from far left social democracy to classic ML.

demvolkedienen.org seems to be some kind of Maoist (no surprise with that name)

Indymedia is open to everyone so every part of leftism is represented

taz is social democratic/left liberalism

neues Deutschland is left wing social democrats

I’d argue that it is fine to include the social democratic sites. If you’re aware of their position you can still get the necessary information out of their articles and they usually have a higher budget than far left ones.

Also I can recommend to read a serious bourgeois newspaper (not pure propaganda rags like the Sun) to every comrade. The bourgeoisie isn’t stupid so they have papers that tell the truth on many things. Their analysis and “solutions” are obviously different but the information is still valuable. Also it’s good to know how the bourgeoisie judges the situation. Know your enemy.

Yeah, that’s what I had roughly in mind when I wrote the comment. Though it has already been a while since I read What is to be Done? I should reread it sometime soon. Always a treat to read Lenin.

To pay my 5€ into the Phrasenschwein/overused phrase piggy:

“There is no ethical consumption under capitalism”

As Marxists we’re not opposed to the individual bourgeois and landlord on a personal emotional basis but we oppose the bourgeois class and its system on the basis of class struggle and from the perspective that only the proletariat can abolish capitalism.

So it’s not a question of who’s “a real Worker” or who lives an ascetic life but what you’re doing and who you’re supporting.

Marx, Engels, Lenin and other great theorists of Marxism were born into wealthy/non-working class families. It’s only natural to a point since it’s easier to develop theory if you’re not working in a factory the whole day.

Try to utilize the extra time to organize/read theory etc.

Maybe it would be best to write the organization/affiliation/standpoint (or if applicable the specific ideology) next to the sites. Would be good to know when reading the articles to have some context.

All bots that were personally programmed by Putin, Kim Jong Un and Xi Jinping during a sleepover in Lenin’s Mausoleum.

Antideutsche (Anti-Germans) claiming that Israel and the US are inherently antifascist and that almost any kind of anti-capitalism is antisemitic.

End of the season celebrations with my football team and some Street Fighter. Also preparing to visit my GF and applying to become a nurse.

Nah, it’s only 1.6gb thanks to videos of Chomsky rambling included.
