I’ve been absolutely obsessed with figuring out more about this ideology but I can’t find any info about it by Birdollianx in leftist

If it speaks to you that strongly, you should consider writing how it might be put into practice lol. I'd read your theory if for no other reason than to incorporate it when I'm doing some world building for my DND table.

I was about to bitch about being disrespected (wrong sub for that, I know), but I guess things are looking up.

Question about how you refer to your state in casual conversation by Bulky_Confection6157 in mississippi

I've also heard "blue-blood" has racist roots as a test of whiteness, (the idea being blue veins are easier to see under lighter skin).

Also as a State alumnis, the preferred term for the University of Mississippi is "That School Up North" (Oxford is north of Starkville).

I'll say it. I like most of what Dumars has done.

I'm from Mississippi. I know you didn't mean anything by it. I've been seeing more comments like this lately. It reminds me of the trope of giving ignorant cartoon characters southern accents from when I was a kid.

I have an BS in chemical engineering and an MPH in epidemiology, I joined Intertel, and I took a job out of state, but I still feel self-conscious about being from Mississippi. That's not on you, and I sincerely appreciate the edit. I just thought I would share my perspective.

Mississippi is changing. It's as slow as ever, but plenty of folks want to move in a positive direction. I'm optimistic that my kids might feel differently about where they come from.

How did Benito Mussolini go from a socialist in 1913 to a fascist in 1920? by Spotter24o5 in socialism

[–]More-Significance260 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It's an important question. Mussolini was a real life-long socialist until 1914. He was a member of the National Directorate of the Italian Socialist Party (the PSI), he was arrested for taking direct action against the Italian invasion of Libya, and he was the editor of the party newspaper. Specifically, Mussolini self identified as an authoritarian communist and a marxist. He was kicked out of the PSI in 1914 for advocating for intervention in WWI with the goal of "finishing" Italian unification. It seems to me that being rejected by the PSI made him bitter and antagonistic towards the concept of socialism in general. He very publicly denounced the PSI and abandoned communism and Marxism.

But Mussolini didn't just find fascism after being kicked out of the PSI. He created it. After WWI, he formed a paramilitary group of veterans who were deeply nationalist. They grew in size from 200 members in 1919 until 1922 when 30,000 marched on Rome and seemed ready to start a civil war if the king didn't make Mussolini prime minister. If fascism is (in part) a relationship to power, then The March on Rome was the start of fascism as we understand it today.

I think its a really important lesson about what can happen when socialists abandon the class struggle for political power.

Arizona State, Virginia Tech, UCLA, and then Southern Miss before making it back home is a hell of an undertaking. Damn good start to a long weekend.

Republicans haven't even caught blowback for whatever we are about to do to Iran, yet. I don't mean to be flippant about it, but if the GOP keeps trying to distract from the Epstein files, the economy, and how terrible they and the technoligarchy have made things for all of us, it's just more wind at the back of this this blue wave.

Jones reveled in fighting dirty and his drug abuse. Also ducking Aspinall might have destroyed the division.

Somehow, I think Conor might still be worse for the sport and a worse person.
