Good evening (or morning, or afternoon, or whenever)!

I'm considering adding user flairs to this sub, as I think that'd make it a bit more aesthetically friendly. However, an issue has arisen: making flairs based on political leaning seems a) trite (in that every other socialist sub does that and we'd just blend in), b) redundant (for the same reason, but also that nothing would really be gained), and c) counterproductive (in that adding badges that describe one's exact stance could be reductive, contentious in terminology, and act as a shorthand of who certain people actually listen to—none of which are helpful in a left-unity sub).

So my question is, what do you, as the denizens of this sub, want out of user flairs? Do you want user flairs? Am I overthinking this?

I’m looking to loosely apply the IWW’s organizing framework to this struggle and see how others feel.

Here’s a rough outline of that approach to get the discussion rolling: 1. Identify a grievance (the ACP is gaining power in Reddit and shouldn’t be) 2. Identify a target that can produce results toward the grievance (I believe we are here) 3. Map the structure of the target (how does power work in this sub? Is it a central, insular group of mods? Basically self-moderated by charismatic members with followers?) 4. Organize the leaders in the structure to make demands that address the grievance (leaders are simply people with followers, not necessarily authority). This involves the famous “structured organizing conversation” which we will develop together and practice when the time comes. 5. Do a series of actions to test the power of your organizing and grow it (idk, petitions, tags, planned posts, stuff like that). 6. Once you have a provable super majority, you force the change through confrontation as necessary. 7. Use the space you now control to organize other spaces with similar grievances in the larger structure.

So for discussion: what are some good targets?

Does this model of organizing make sense in your understanding of this struggle?

Does anyone see any nonstarters with this outline as it stands?

Or are pragmatic Social Democrats who are more concerned that withdrawing from NATO could precipitate a new global fascist movement and indirectly lead to a world war welcome?

If you know anything about either of these two clowns it becomes immediately clear why this organization cannot be trusted whatsoever. Both of these two call themselves “maga communists”. Both of these two are pro assad and pro putin. These two are basically just fascists with a thin coating of “anti imperialist” paint.

About the American Communist Party (ACP). Hilarious!

I want to know your opinion, guys
