Within the workplace and advocate for issues outside of it.
Seemingly one sided solidarity like that given by LGSM are the backbone of queer resistance here. But its okay to not want an active role, its okay to step back, to believe you are needed more else were.

to take that giant risk.
But the blame for that situation ultimately falls on union leadership, and the members who can and choose to do nothing
Unions are weaker now in britian than almost any other time, and when they are strong they do absolutely have the ability to protect trans people

Unfortunately, unions in this country are in tatters
But there are still good folks amongst em tryna create change, but truly in this climate, it can be hard to do that and continue to keep said Job.
And Unfortunately the majority of union members aren't financially stable enough in this economy

This dudes death doesn't actively benefit anyone he will get replaced by another old bloke
Nor does this post lack moral principles, it instead includes a very simple and basic one
"The guilty don't get the empathy the innocent do"

The race that in America and britian are currently crying screaming and breakingdown about being replaced by immigrants yes
Can't blame me for Churchill words
His exact sentiment Is that if you're country is getting taken over by another race no wrong has been done as they are simply stronger

Approx 5,000 pensioners die a year due to lack of funds to heat their homes
Approx 300,000 veterans have died waiting for healthcare
But yeah.. outta poverty right?
Unless you're talking about veterans, children, elderly, the country, the homeless, the sick, or 85% of the country

300,000 in shelters
40 million in poverty
Outta that 9 million are children
Approx 30 - 90,000 people die a year due to lack of access of healthcare

Brought countries out of poverty.
Well since this is a conversation about republicans, let's look at america:
The country is in 34 trillion dollars of debt
Over 50% of Americans themselves are in debt with 17 trillion owed between em
More than 41% being in medical debt (72 mil)

No babes, quoting marx is very old and not new
And it actually means you tried to claim there was strong social programmes in the 1600s and 1700s.. π€£π
It's been fun babes truly

Well according to free market politics, a starving veteran on the streets and Elon musks kids have equal chances of becoming rich.
It's never ended up working out that way
comment in response to

But yeah no 1700s America didn't have food stamps or medicare or anything large scale or above that of "my neighbour is starving.. I have extra bread.. here's my bread pal"

Just called "being a normal person with empathy"
wasn't until capatlism came about that programmes were required to stop the working class dying due to capitalistic exploitation
comment in response to
post
Tf does this even mean lmao?
Yes..? congrats people helping each other predates socalism π
But no, organised social programmes don't predate socalism
Large scale social programmes didn't exist in the 1700s
However small community programmes do infact predate socalism and capatlism and were infact

Or about the needs of the many being above the needs to the few and wealthy.
comment in response to
post
Abolishment of private property ect ect
But yes social programmes are infact a socalist belief.
The belief that these social programmes are enough to fix capatalism is called social democracy
Collectivism is about state owned means of production and infact not about strong social safety nets

Marx: "from each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs"
Socalism is about people above profit. The needs of the individual above the wants of the elite.
It includes but is not limited to:
Public owned ultities
Public owned MOP
Strong social safety nets (aka social programmes)
comment in response to
post
Socalism is the belief of people above profit
programmes that take your profit and put it towards the community are infact apart of a socalist belief system even if when exist within capatalism, this is called democratic socialism.
Aka creating socalist solutions within capatalism
