it's amazing how substantially your site has changed since i first followed. Heoism is such a thoughtful philosophy and i rlly love that you take into account the diversity of leftist thought <3

its really nice to hear that, especially from you, what with your site being one of the first I'd found when I came onto neocities; writing down my thoughts, however juvenile they might initially be, and opening them to public critique (and furthermore allowing me to re-read what I've written) and cross-referencing them with new theory I learn and changes in material conditions help me to more rapidly develop Heoism

in real life much of my ability to organize is extremely restricted, and about the most ive been able to do is convert people to Marxist-Leninist Syndicalists (the best way I can describe it; essentially trade unionism with rudimentary understanding of how general unions would function - I'm still working out how to explain theory)

much of what ive seen in socialist spaces is bickering between anarchists and marxist-leninists because we keep looking at post-capitalism through the imperialist lens of ideological dominance, rather than a globalist lens of a cooperative federation, and when i came to that conclusion i realized that exact latter bit *is* the solution: unite as a single vanguard, obliterate capitalism, and then forge

I saw evilperson (https://neocities.org/site/evilperson) on limovars' (https://neocities.org/site/limovars) page describe Neocities as a daily newspaper and, yea... I think that's a good way of looking at the decentralized nature of Neocities' common media: a public newspaper that can be written by anyone, for any reason, with anything

I love your website so much and I'm incredibly impressed that despite how beautifully composed it is, it still runs smoothly on my laptop; I was also delighted to see a mention of Mystery Flesh Pit National Park, I'd secondarily recommend you check out this video on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaP8XCSnJn4

considering making communist propaganda again but im not sure what i could effectively make. if i had to describe my art style it would be somewhere between socialist constructivism and aleksander rostov with a distinctly simple and digital aesthetic (generally intentionally pixelated) with harsh colour contrast

Received a request about internet legislation within the SRS given the current mass censorship campaigns, advocating for full requirement of human moderation - reporting methods can be automated, but all takedowns must have human confirmation. I hadn't thought about the aspects of the internet (other than collective ownership and migrating the concept of, "social media," to a combination of

public options ("public media," whether created as official SRS platforms or by groups of people within the SRS) and decentralized websites ("common media," ex. neocities), though I hadn't considered that something similar to Project Cybersyn (Chilean concept for automated mass paging of applicable government members if something fell out of acceptable ranges, mass information dissemination in real time, and economic

predictions), though of course keeping all control within human legislation. As for the automation itself, that would need to be restricted purely to information dissemination and prediction: large scale computing (in the sense of llms, lims, lvms, etc.) is economically and ecologically untenable, and furthermore cannot ethically be made while capitalist conditions still exist.

Essentially, an information network similar to DASDECs (which send automated EAS messages) merged with a prediction network similar to weather prediction, never GenAI, and NEVER put a computer in charge of any decisions that affect humans.
