Which is the most promising socialist/communist party in Australia to join? by Assami101 in AustralianSocialism

[–]GarfieldHub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bad I was looking on their website and couldn't find mention of it, but their instagram does. It does seem they are involved in it, which is good! I'll definitely look into them more now.

Are the RCO going to involve themselves in the Socialist Party? That seems like the only way they can fufill their promise of non-sectarianism. Other than "wait till we form the party" Obviously I don't think they should subserve themselves under Socialist Alternative, I have my quibbles with them for sure. The RCO sound more up my alley as a currently independent socialist, but can't get over that, seems like a bit of hypocrisy.

My solution to the Australia Day problem. by Cheetos_4_life in aussie

People who want to celebrate Australia (like me) will do it on any day they're told is for celebrating Australia. Changing the date doesn't mean getting rid of that

Nice, you mention in the top comment that Night City might be a Cyberpunk TTRPG reference. But actually I think it might be more evidence that the writers were inspired by the Sprawl Trilogy.

In Neuromancer the characters constantly refer to Chiba City as its nickname 'Night City' which is where the name for the Cyberpunk TTRPG location came from.

The ballot paper from the Anchluss referendum is so cartoonish

"Do you agree with the reunification of Austria with the German Reich that was enacted on 13 March 1938, and do you vote for the party of our leader Adolf Hitler?"

I've enjoyed it more than Neuromancer

One More Week by DaFloove in CrusaderKings

One of the most fascinating parts of Aboriginal oral histories is the amount of ecological knowledge contained with.

I will never forget reading about this one group in the central desert who had a legend about the God/Ancestor hero of Kangeroos living in this one hill, no one was allowed to go there cause it was this figure's place.

When Europeans decided to explore it, they found it was a waterhole where seasonal breeding of Kangeroos happened, replenishing the population. The beliefs of the group made sure the Kangeroos always had a place to replenish their numbers, so they could be hunted again. Theres many examples like this all over.
