my boss said he doesn’t personally post here but some others might. and my boss thinks it’s cool that I’m a leftist, he’s one too, apparently, and that a bunch of our coworkers are leftists. some of them might post here?? it’s a finance firm – the last place I’d expect this. how the fuck do they have a positive opinion of this place??

YOU HAVE TO TELL ME IF YOU POST HERE AND WHAT YOUR @ IS. THIS IS SO UNFAIR LEAVING ME ON THE HOOK LIKE THIS. DON’T MAKE ME POST PPB TO THE WORK SLACK AND SEE WHO LAUGHS.

(I use tree style tabs so they can read my tabs when I share my screen – I didn’t hide this place because who the fuck has heard of hexbear)

I know a friend who is a communist and organizes and they with no restraint worked on a project at a FAANG to allow the intelligence agency of another imperial core country to spy on their citizens

Also know an organizer who leads an org of ~70 people at a $XX billion dollar company making >1 mill per year lmao

When something pops off in a city like NYC though there are enough people active that aren’t even in orgs that they can make the police retreat, I have some hope for the future, a lot of young people got their first taste of a sort of action in 2020 and many are still down for the cause. The most serious revolutionaries aren’t going to talk about it much.
