No you're not a Hoxhaist, Titoist or Dengist. It's 2021, you're either a Marxist-Leninist or you're not. Picking sides in past battles based on the little you've read isn't an efficient way to be political. Learn from the past, but it is down to you to conquer your future.

There's no such thing as "queer liberation". It's an abstract. The only liberation that can happen through socialism is the liberation of the working class. LGBT+ who, although discriminated against, are not oppressed under capitalism, will not be liberated under socialism.

@_TLN_ @tomhfh Venue costs, sound system costs, buffet costs, travel costs for speakers, printing costs... It's almost like you haven't put on an event before? ๐Ÿ˜‚ We don't get masses of funding from big organisations like some.

@ChallengeYCL Decent article. It definitely applied to me a few years back when I first got into anti-fascism and thought I needed to dress as a certain subculture to do it. It wasn't until meeting some relatively normal Northerners involved that I realised the act wasn't needed. #BeNormal

I didn't sleep much as I was up teaching myself how to format text for books, as you do. Still a lot to play around with and work out, but hopefully there will be some decent YCL edition compilations soon. At least in digital format.

We have more LGBT members in the Young Communist League than the entire membership of most other Marxist-Leninist "organisations" in Britain, past and present. Let that sit with you for a while...

@BarrySmellson @yclbritain Ever had the EDL make a "wanted poster" of you, message you with your address to threaten you, after opposing them in multiple cities around the country, and getting into physical confrontations with them? No, didn't think so.
