A subreddit for Socialists living in the Pacific Northwest: Northern California, Oregon, Idaho, Western Montana, Washington, British Columbia, and Alaska.

Welcome to /r/RedCascadia

Socialism as a political system is defined by democratic and social control of the means of production by the workers for the good of the community rather than capitalist profit, based fundamentally on the abolition of private property relations.

Socialism is also a sociopolitical movement dedicated to the critique and dismantling of exploitative structures, including economic, gendered, ethnic oppression.

Socialism, as a movement, confronts these different systems of oppression as mutually conditioning, intersectional, and/or dialectically related within the current hegemonic order. It seeks to overcome oppression in a holistic manner without neglecting any particular axis so that it might be eliminated and genuine social emancipation may be realized. We recognize that Socialism cannot be achieved while structural oppression continues and workers are divided.

We look forward to your participation in our sub, but please be mindful of our posting guidelines.

Are you new to socialist ideas? Wondering what alternatives to capitalism exist? Please check out our educational materials and wiki further down in this sidebar.

Anybody here for Independence?

I'm agnostic on it while being more enthusiastic in the past. I'm afraid that it might have been an urge of youth, something new and exciting, historical, but I feel now that, if it isn't something destined to happen by the breakup of the United States, that energy put towards it could be put to better use.

But maybe it puts us in a better position to push for leftist goals? I'm torn, throwing it out for discussion.
