Russian repression is so fucked up

I recommend trying to reach put to large organizations that align with your interests in this case.

Especifismo: black rose anarchist federation

Radical unionism: Industrial Workers of the World

Both of those orgs will be able to help a lot more than we can, if you want to build something aligned to them. Building different organizations take different approaches, and they can share their experiences and strategies that are more likely to succeed.

I’m not from the US, so I don’t know many more organizations. But the principle stays the same: you want to build a mutual aid network, try talking with people already working on those, even if they aren’t from the same place.

Now, as to what exactly amongst each of those you should do, I think only you can answer. My approach is that the best thing is something that touches you (be either in your heart, your body or your wallet). So basically, what do you feel like doing?

I wish you the best of luck, comrade :)

The first is what thinking on what kind of organization do you want to be a part of. Do you want to fight for labor rights in a union? Do you want an affinity group? Or maybe do you want to join a broad coalition of environmental defense. Or maybe a large anarchist platform.

Those are all different and will have different advantage and issues. There isn’t one right way of doing anarchism.

The other thing is, you mentioned there’s only a local DSA in there. Are you sure? Where is the chapter currently working? And more importantly, which movements are they working with? Knowing that might shed some light into other organizations or at least social movements.

This doesn’t mean shit.

I was raised catholic. It’s basically church doctrine that anyone is a child of God, and pretty much almost anyone can be baptized.

It doesn’t mean you’re not a sinner who’s going to burn forever in hell. It’s just the famous anti-lgbt talking point “hate the sin, not the sinner”.

This will lead LGBT people to a false sense of security before they go straight up to conversion therapy.

The vaccine does not stop covid

It does.

It does not make you immune

Not to all strains, and not completely.

it does not stop you from spreading covid

It does, by reducing symptoms like cough, which spreads the virus in the air, and by lowering your chances of having it on the first place.

and you will have to get another dose after about 3 months

I haven’t checked this one, but even if true, it’s a small price to pay to not having my friends and loved ones dying.

And then there are possible adverse effects like myocarditis, especially for young men. All this should be considered.

Which are extremely unlikely to happen in comparison to dying of covid.

There are other ways to strengthen your immune system. They should be considered too.

There isn’t s way to strengthen your immune system, because it doesn’t work that way. You either have a healthy immune system or you are immunocompromised, which may happen when you are particularly fucking up your body with drugs, going through rapid environment changes or suffering with AIDS.

People with a immune system that is too strong (that is, more aggressive and more wasteful of body resources) actually tend to develop auto immune diseases.

Most people that have died due to covid have been severely ill, morbidly obese or very old.

Yeah. And they still deserved to fucking live.

Eating healthy, getting enough exercise and making sure Vitamin D levels are sufficient will make covid much less dangerous. I much prefer that to constantly getting new boosters.

Those are indeed good practices that will lead to a healthier life, and may affect your chances with covid (especially exercise if it’s cardio).

However, COVID doesn’t care. Being healthier mostly means that you can take a bit more physical damage on average than other people while your immune system tries to fight the infection. It will still fuck you up and possibly cause permanent damage.

Oh, and if you have bad genetics, got wet from the rain in a cold environment, or is just way too stressed out from work? Your chances are pulled down just as much.

The details I do know, based on Instagram posts from both CNT Barcelona and their opposition, is that:

• CNT Barcelona hosted an event discussing trans healthcare in Spain, with four prominent TERFs as guests. One claims to be a detransitioner.
• A protest was made by anarchists against the event.
• CNT Barcelona supposedly called the police against the protesters. There’s even footage of a supposed secretary from CNT-CIT being friendly with cops.
