Texts I have added to the ProleWiki Library:

I'm a Decolonial Marxist-Leninist from Western Europe, a student of Marxism-Leninism since 2013 when I was radicalized in the context of Palestinian solidarity activism. A great deal of my orientation towards Marxism-Leninism can be credited to online comrades and the "Leftbook" reading groups (2013 - 2015), including "Communism 101" (the old, good one that was just MLs).

I was also a member of an IRL org for some years, but left due to a serious disagreement with many lines, and no support among others for any sort of line struggle related to this. This line problem was complex but encompasses things like the stance on China, stance on Russia, stance on Palestine, stance on settler-colonialism or lack thereof, etc., from the org in my country, as well as its international lines and affiliations more broadly.

Etc[edit | edit source]

Aside from Marxism, my interests are fiction writing/worldbuilding, making electronic music, gaming, computer stuff.

Wiki experience[edit | edit source]

I joined ProleWiki in 2021. I've used MediaWiki for many years in different contexts, so I hope to help out this project on the MW technical side of things as well as trying to help as an editor. In 2015, I was involved in a spiritual precursor to ProleWiki called "Prolepedia". Unfortunately, "Prolepedia" did not survive very long, due to clashing ideological lines causing infighting within the project; as a result of that experience, I now strongly believe that the only way this type of project can survive is by taking a firm line stance against "maoists", "anti-revisionists" and other ultras, as wel as social-chauvinist settler-communists and eurocommunists.

 == '''About me''' ==
-I'm a Jewish Marxist from Western Europe. I have been a student of Marxism-Leninism since 2013, when I was a 15-year-old teenager, and subsequently spent a decade of my life slowly learning and learning. I have had the same general "ML, pro-AES" line that entire time---besides a very brief confused Tito/Trotsky phase in 2013 that lasted a month or so.
-Most of my ideological formation can be credited to online reading groups, first on Tumblr (where I had a blog titled "Castroist.EU") and then on "Leftbook", a community of Facebook-based leftist discussion groups, including Marxist-Leninist ones like ''"Communism 101"'' and ''"Karl Marx's Red Reading Room"''. My comrades and ideological teachers in those environments were almost all trans and as a result trans liberation has always been an integral part of communism for me. I've also pretty much seen the patsoc/settler communist movement arise in real time.. since it is predominantly an online cult. I was there when Maupin and his clowns got banned from the above Facebook groups lol!

-Most of the aforementioned groups either no longer exist, or are no longer run by serious Marxists...and I haven't really been active on such platforms since 2019, either way. However, I still look fondly on the comrades I met there, and engaging with fellow Marxists from all over the world, young and old, from Amerikkka to China. We really are a global movement, increasingly so facilitated by the online networks we form. Honestly, in many ways, the internet is being vastly underutilized by the ossified organizations we inherited from the 20th century.
+I was also a member of an IRL org for some years, but left due to a serious disagreement with many lines, and no support among others for any sort of line struggle related to this. This line problem was complex but encompasses things like the stance on China, stance on Russia, stance on Palestine, stance on settler-colonialism or lack thereof, etc., from the org in my country, as well as its international lines and affiliations more broadly.
-Speaking of orgs, I have been on-and-off affiliated with communist orgs within my country, and spent some years going to protests and all that stuff. However, due to my serious disagreement with many of their ideological lines (especially with regard to China, Russia, LGBT rights, and international affiliations) I am no longer a member of any org as of 2023.

+Aside from Marxism, my interests are fiction writing/worldbuilding, making electronic music, gaming, computer stuff.
-I have reached the conclusion that European and Euro-settler countries necessarily take a backseat in the global struggle against imperialism, so I think my efforts really are better spent helping educate younger communists from all over the globe, including helping with intitiatives like ProleWiki (until such a time as actual revolutionary conditions are reached in the Western world, in which case I would definitely seek to either join or help create a revolutionary organization).
-Aside from Marxism, my interests are fiction writing, making electronic music, listening to lots of different music genres, gaming, and doing a little bit of computer stuff. I am also admin of a fairly large fandom-related Discord server with about 4000 members which takes up some of my time.

-I joined ProleWiki in 2021. I have been installing different CMSs, including MediaWiki, in my own amateurish web hosting career for even longer than I've been a Marxist-Leninist. As someone with a good understanding of MediaWiki, I hope to help out this project on the MW technical side of things as well as trying to help as a regular editor.
