Dearest comrades.
Stop gatekeeping behind academic language, flowerly language and verbage. It's classiest as fuck.
Stop alpha-nerding over the ancient scrolls.
So what if someone gets their politics from Comrade Malone, Mischief Brew or their mate Deano instead.

Theory isn't everything. It's not mandatory or something "you should do before you organise". Some of the best organisers I've ever met haven't read a jot of the lit.

Sometimes folk are all to keen to martyr themselves to the idealistic perception of "the working class" and loath everyone else. It's street/site or fuck off. I guess because 9/10 they act like the kids in the trackies aint shit on their shoe. Sure, I get it.

We can embrace whatever micro-faction of the working class we find ourselves in without compromising our solidarity. Toffs will have you hating someone over ÂŁ250 pm difference in pay (either way) and we can't fucking afford it. 8/
Especially if you're on the privleged side of it here. It's you who have to make the effort not the other way around. No you don't need a token scally to prove cred.

... and yes I know, the typos, oh the typos. I'mma save you the lip biting & ableist retorts and put my hands up. My stream of consciousness manner and general impatience with Twitter means I forgot to edit and tidy again. Maybe I should use the jar for a touch type course eh?-R
