Tristan Ridley<p>The most confusing thing I've learned on Mastodon so far is how many supposed <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/socialists" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>socialists</span></a> support the fascist government of <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/China" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>China</span></a>. Stalin may have modified the ideas of Marx to suit the authoritarian reality of Russia, but China takes the fascist elements of the USSR and forgets the socialist bits.</p><p>You can't claim a nation so full of poverty, rich capitalists, and suppression of the proletariat is socialist, without being immediately outed as either a troll or plant undermining <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/socialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>socialism</span></a>.</p>

In another sign of members’ increasing dedication, a full slate of candidates ran to fill more open leadership positions than last year. Yet, despite that good work, everyone recognized the depth of the danger facing working-class Mainers heading into Trump’s second term—not the least of which is the fact that local Republican county committees are openly celebrating Trump’s pardon for Maine’s very own <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/January6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>January6</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/insurrectionists" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>insurrectionists</span></a>. </p><p>"Last week <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PineAndRoses" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PineAndRoses</span></a> published a proposal to guide our organizing over the coming year and it was taken up at the conference.

During the debate, several members suggested the resolution ought to have a more clearly defined international section.
