  • All the adults in my life told me (an 18yo kid) if I wanted to have a decent future I would have to sign that contract for an unknown amount of debt (it’s just student loans you’re not borrowing a specific amount until you’re actually done with school). I was told the job I would get would be able to pay for that loan (which was not true), and the loan started accruing interest before I even got that mythical job to pay for it. How is any of that my fault?








  • Honest question, how important is reading theory? Won’t we need to build our numbers beyond where it’s reasonable to expect everyone to have read theory? Especially given that much of it is written in an academic rather than a narrative way. Obviously there should be those in the movement who are versed in theory, but shouldn’t the movement be open to as many as possible? And assigning homework as soon as they want to join seems like a good way to discourage engagement.
