Hello

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 am now 25 years old.

During that time, believe it or not, I have had the same pro-AES line the entire time-- much of my ideological formation can be credited to "Leftbook" discussion groups, like "Communism101" and "Marx's Red Reading Room". Most of those groups no longer exist, and I haven't really been active on Leftbook since 2019, but I still look fondly on the comradeship I found there, with fellow Marxists from all over the world, both young and old.

Aside from Marxism, my interests are fiction writing (mainly fantasy), as well as various music genres, TV series and videogames. I am also admin of a fairly large fandom-related Discord server with about 4000 members which takes up some of my time.

Wiki experience

I joined ProleWiki in 2021. As somebody 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.

In 2015, I was involved in something of 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 firmly believe that the only way this project can survive is by taking a firm stance against so-called "maoists", "anti-revisionists", trotskyites and other ultras and anti-communist "tendencies" like social-chauvinist settler communists.

IRL organizing

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.

I have reached the conclusion that the European and Euro-settler parties will necessarily take a backseat in the global struggle against imperialism, so there is little for any of them to meaningfully accomplish right now. Therefore I think my efforts are really better spent helping educate younger communists from all over the globe, including helping with intitiatives like ProleWiki.
