I thought to myself, you know, I have lots of things to say and people seem to like it, so why not try my hand at a substack? I'm gonna need some way to make a living very soon and they sell the potential of substack so well ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Right now there's only the article I also posted on ProleWiki about Zionism and antisemitism, but another smallish one is coming Saturday. I'm aiming at publishing once a week. If you subscribe to the newsletter now you'll be notified in your inbox when the 2nd article comes out (pro tip: I get to see your email so use a proxy if you don't want to leak that). I'm still setting up a couple things (not sure on the name and I need a logo and stuff) but the blog is ready to be read so.

The difference with my ProleWiki writings is this is my own opinions and I can tear into patsocs as much as I want there, which would not be suited for ProleWiki. I'll also talk ab what it's like to admin prolewiki sometimes I think, and how this can be useful to anyone starting a project. I also want something that can be aimed more at newbies or general anti-imperialists than outright communists like Prolewiki is typecast as rn.

Anyway we'll see where this goes, I make it up as I go along.

It's a bit of a gray area in the essays space. Technically we stand against patsocism in our principles and our own articles on it rightly calls them out, but when it comes to essay we try to stay above petty drama beyond necessary education. Especially as an admin on prolewiki I feel like I have to be careful what I say lest it gets interpreted as an official prolewiki position. Definitely feel more freedom on my own blog from the get go lol. Still love our essays space on PW ofc
