We need more support for the indigenous people of the Commonwealth. In this time period they were calculated to be around 237,196–270,000 people which about somewhere between 0.35-7% of the current Commonwealth. We will not and I repeat cannot in any circumstances ignore them, dismiss their concerns, or treat them in anyway similar to the previous administration. How we wish to move forward must be based on how we treat even our most minor of population. It should be a new change in relation based on respect, as they have as much to teach us as we them.

If this org is based out of Appalachia then wouldn't it make sense for a supporting org to be the AB? It's not like org members wouldn't be swayed, it's just in the post war funk they're a bit depressed from radical action. Idk it would make sense to me that the RIA would exert influence in the AB. I'm mostly arguing this because imo more internal confliction within the AB is good actually. Keeps things interesting.

Huh? We already had a full 1903. And 1904 Q1. This is 1904 from April to December. Did I say 1903 elsewhere?

Oooh! Acceptable targets.

btw what's the difference between anarchism and progressivism? I thought the first was a subset of the second?

The base line assumption for the forum is that we be civil and argue in good faith. So therefore for the rest of the class can you specify that this is a genuine question born out of ignorance and not bait designed to infuriate every anarchist that reads it?

"Progressivism" is a very vague term. However, most people called "progressives" support capitalism and the state to some extent, while anarchists are very much against both.

[x] Youth International for Proletarian Power Established Everywhere! (YIPPEE!)
-[x] Circumstance of founding
The Second American Civil War prompted diverse artistic reactions, although few proved as controversial and lasting as the YIPPEE! movement. Formed in Chicago by student and artistic radicals, they declared the victory of the Revolution to be the victory of the "irrational human spirit" against the rationalizing and logical impulses of bureaucratic capitalism. Now was the time for man to be unleashed, to live as per the unconscious spirit demanded, no longer shackled by "bourgeois morality". This was expressed in an explosion of decadent and absurdist art and performance, a conscious reaction against the social realism common at the time oft insulted by nascent YIPPIEs as "the last gasp of reaction", the limitation of the proletarian imagination to merely what they had suffered before the great victory, rather than what could be achieved in the now. The YIPPEEs quickly became famous for their purposely controversial pieces and parties, most famously the "Universal Cabaret", a yet-ongoing occupation of the former Chicago Institute of Art where performers "in conversation" with the former collection, smash, destroy and repurpose the paintings and sculpture of the old world to make something truly new.

Anarcho-surrealism; policy prescriptions (proposed with varying degrees of seriousness) include the abolishment of all laws, including those of physics, protection and promotion of homosexuality and other forms of "deviance", reduction in the working day to six hours or less, universal champagne, the replacement of the Army with a "universal brotherhood" ...

This basically only tells me that "Progressive" is an umbrella term that generally thinks "NAC is socialist and protects human life and liberty which is good" and "Anarchism" is a term that means "capital and states are bad and therefore the NAC is a disaster"
