1 year agoOthers already mentioned most of the same thoughts I had (accurate for the time, Spanish Civil War) but it was annoying to see the “nuclear bombing of Japan saved lives” thing perpetuated. Not a word of the Soviet front in Manchuria. Was to be expected of a Hollywood movie, but still disappointing.
Silver lining was that the movie through Oppenheimer shows the realization of what absolute horrors the bombings were, and by extent the horror of nuclear war.
Similar situation here. For me instead of a 9-5 keeping me busy, it’s my state of health being a constant obstacle in daily life. Most organizations have no set way for new members to get familiar, making it even harder for me to find my bearings. Let alone physically ever attending meetings etc.
Online I tried to get in touch to help with leftist media, but I was politely rejected after being upfront about my physical limitations.
Praxis for me now is just talking to friends who are left leaning, and continuing to educate myself. I just have little energy to do anything else, and it is frustrating.
