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 😭

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.

Thanks a lot, I think there's definitely a place for principled anti imperialists. I don't want to preach to the choir there and I'm a bit tired of unprincipled broad anti imperialists like Johnstone or Blumenthal. They have the right spirit most of the time but as we see without revolutionary theory there can be no revolutionary practice and they get into weird situations where they can offer no solutions or start being anti vaccines for no reason
