What are you surprised about not being adopted more widely?

PPE wise? people should wear life vests to reduce rib breakage percentage against blunt objects, or wear a bed roll across their chest like this

also the adoption of wearing pistol belts/regular belts so that the people behind you can grab you better? safety glasses/ shop glasses made of polycarbonate will stop you from going snowblind, damage from uv rays, and hopefully will help you keep your eyes if you get shot with rubber bullets

shit rerun of history where they lazily swapped things up so it ain't a direct copy, instead of brown shirts brown pants!

bump Amber whataboutism

ah thanks for the relay of the list though

contributing to a change in culture.

i think it was on the lemmyverse where somebody said the NAFOs fought an media war to dehumanise the russians as orcs and stamp out any counter cultural pole that oppose that narrative.

you are very right that in that cultural poles that defy the silently genocidal status quo are important

I mean you are right in some sense that there is no ethical consumption under capitalism and that to simply consuming content is not radical. It is our collective actions and organisation that is needed to ~~radically change~~ restructure the system.

though it seems that the palestinians are receptive to westerners donning the garment and, that people are being targeted for wearing them.

so maybe it has in someway become an informal uniform of some sort for those who oppose the current status quo of funding israel.

last week? can you please send a link? i would like to read more into this

ahck yeah, i was talking with some lad in an activism group and i'm like, are we suppose to have fun doing activism? we're exhausting all legal routes and working within the confines of our system, so that we know we have no other choice - but i honestly just feel like a liberal.

was listening to proles of the round table with deathnography and he was saying "yeah the activism in hong kong was fun, and all the dude were like lowkey communists" and i'm like where is the fun, how do we have fun?

but ahck also stuck in the civility stage here

i've been thinking about this lol, is there a handbook or something on the communist side of things that tell you what to do - cause i am so lost with all this stuff

was trying to find if anybody else made a post about proles of the podcast being revived, stumbled under posts in local, new and you were there on the first page

they're back https://twitter.com/ProlesPod/status/1764696919819854280
