I've gotten to meet a few people from here irl and they were all awesome, I'd love to meet more of our comrades and I expect there's a number of us who feel that way. Not would it be cool to hang out but as much as we wish it were posting isn't praxis however meeting offline makes it much easier to actually accomplish something. My thought was either a sticky thread or new com. People who are down to meet can post their nearest major city and then handle everything else through DMs, that should keep the doxing to a minimum. Anyone else interested in the idea or am I just being dumb?
We should be more specific here. As I see it pushing their unrelated publications / promoting their org unprompted is a kind of tailism, a tendency to solely insert oneself in unfolding events. But that isn't to say that we should escew agitation as a whole as the opposite pole of tailism is opportunism. Rather, agitation, pamphleting at a protest, etc. should be focused on connecting the specific issue to a broader revolutionary line. In a sentence: 'from the masses, to the masses.'
Definitely agree. Other ML and Maoist parties generally give out pamphlets promoting directly related open forums and events which is great but Trots just try to sell their monthly issue newspaper of like 20 pages to any event they show up to
