What are you implying here? I barely had any posts because I don't come on here very often and when I do, I mostly lurk. I merely wanted people's opinions and I posted on the appropriate instance. What's the problem?

But isn't religion a source of false consolation? The real consolation would of course be the improvement of material conditions.

It certainly helps people cope with day to day life under capitalism, but eventually it needs to go.

 

The idea that the Palestinian people have only been able to persist because of their religion is ridiculous to me. They are resisting because colonialism, apartheid and genocide are very bad things to which nobody would want to be subjected, not because of Islam. If Palestinians were atheists, is he suggesting that they wouldn't have the strength or the will to resist? Would their lack of a belief in the supernatural turn them into doormats for Isn'treal?

I like Hakim's content, but his position on religion is quite frustrating. He is a Muslim first and a Marxist second. Also, Joram van Klaveren is still a right-winger.

I recently stopped watching porn after doing some reading on proletarian/marxist feminism. This article in particular was really good imo: https://proletarianfeminist.medium.com/a-socialist-feminist-and-transgender-analysis-of-sex-work-b08aaf1ee4ab

I was wondering if anyone else is in a similar boat? Porn is a powerful drug and it can be really difficult to give it up if you're addicted (which I am unfortunately). Is anyone willing to share their porn-free journey and give some advice and tips?
