The First International Syndicalist Congress was a meeting of European and Latin American syndicalist organizations at Holborn Town Hall in London that began on this day in 1913. The congress was attended by 38 delegates representing 65 organizations from Argentina, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Cuba, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom, with a total membership between 220,000 and 250,000.
Despite being marked by heated disagreements over both tactics and principles, the Congress succeeded in creating the International Syndicalist Information Bureau as a vehicle of exchange and solidarity between the various organizations, and the "Bulletin international du mouvement syndicaliste" as a means of communication. It would be viewed as a success by almost all who participated.

I really need to delete my reddit account. My interactions on Hexbear and really any other social are so much more positive, idk why I keep posting there.
same here. i occasionally comment on reddit (mostly in trueanon, shitliberalssay, thedeprogam) or call out shitlibs but never read my responses because i hate redditors. have like hundreds unread. can't seem to get myself banned no matter how hard i try maybe it's because my account has too much fucking karma and was lib at one time i dunno.
meanwhile i'm just slow to respond on here because of some latent fear of "umm aksully" responses but everyone's always nice and you think i'd know this since i've been here since day 1.
I got my account permanently banned from reddit for saying that boomers aren't dying fast enough. That's it. The rule they gave me was "threatening violence". lmao
