Centrists / reformists: "look, gradual change from the inside can work - and in any case nothing else is possible" The booj which the reformists believe they can work with: "we want to feed your bodies into a furnace powering the god-incubator"

More 10-year-olds say they want puppies than parents do. What's behind the divide?

"Raising the public awareness of [the word 'socialism'] is an unalloyed and unequivocal good! People are now more likely to consider your position! If people have never heard [the word 'socialism'] before, then they can't join your cause." Communications majors lied: not all press is good press.

"doesn't exactly suggest their system was sustainable" 1) Back to the victim blaming I see: fair play, it's a classic. 2) Sustainable...as opposed to? Jan 6th? America's leading role in the Prison industrial complex? Capitalism-induced global ecological collapse from anthropogenic climate change?

Hard for this team to be good vibes when this keeps happening

I'd be thrilled to be wrong, maybe this time [minor concessions while leaving capitalism, the MIC & the PIC untouched] will work out. *globbing myself with blue acrylic paint all over* It never has before for anyone else, but this time maybe it will for us.

If it were possible to convey, on an everyday scale, the differences between China and the US, to average Americans, they'd lose their minds: '$12 to take a 240kph train the equivalent of NYC to Dallas?' And the LOL is friends saying 'But the govt is heavy-handed!' JFC can't make it up. Cannot.

power? Things will not just slow burn out. There will be a crackdown like you have never seen. Are you thinking about that when you tell people what’s what? Do you want to be like the communists in Indonesia who had to admit they took the wrong path after 1 million died.

“Israel massacred this entire family today in Harouf, South Lebanon. Not combatants. A father, a mother, and their 3 daughters.”

That's the first believable thing you've said.

The @hindrajabfoundation.be has filed a criminal complaint in Belgium against Belgian-Israeli Alon ben Sira, who served as a sniper in the 9th Sniper Platoon, based on new evidence and victim accounts. It presents concrete, actionable evidence and demands 🇧🇪 #Belgium investigate and prosecute.

Remember a few days ago when liberals were live-tweeting the erecting of scaffolding, as if it were the October Revolution? And like...now there's just a tarp dangling, with no indication of actual change? I wonder if there's a metaphor in there.

Pulled this off the shelf to finally read (a 1940 printing I found used in a socialist bookstore in London last year) and just discovered this really cool if slightly stained postcard between the pages

If there's no indication that it impacted results...then why the fuck are you talking about it.

The boards of Palantir, Google, Amazon, Advanced Dynamics,Boeing, Cisco, IBM, Raytheon, Caterpillar, and Lockheed Martin all thank you for your service in punching down on people opposed to genocide and especially on Palestinians themselves.

The best part about this flavor of DARVO nazi rhetoric is the way it brings fellow nazis out of the wood work so I can use the blockenheimer.

Fucking *monstrous*

I gotchu 🫡

It gets better. His company’s name: Greenwater Services. Did he once pay a bribe to Jim Traficant: yes, of course

This is what they make the American guy look like in anime

The deeply unserious idealist to imperialist running dog pipeline

Shirt I was wearing today :/

i fully believe this was their final option for survival. i refuse to blame the leadership. i refuse to fucking blame cuba for what the united states is doing to it. you can all take your noble fucking ideals and shove them up your asses.

Will admit this administration is at peak performance when it comes to production of metaphors for imperial rot.

It is way too on-the-nose that Trump made a bunch of arbitrary changes to the DC reflecting pool, within days it was growing unmitigated algae and within a week it's stagnant green-brown water and the ugly new paint he picked is peeling off the sides.

Officer, please, I was not going to kill her I was going to pay someone else to do it for me! Totally different.

Fucking what? By who???

Another 100 years. All of your friends are dead. This is the danger. And this is a part of the argument made in fascism and social Revolution, which every socialist should read.

I mean, this is a WILD shift in a very short period. The US was deporting and jailing college students for saying less very recently.

Hmmmmmm

“For services at My Lai”

It's disheartening to see how many people still find this framework compelling. People who in other conexts might not be so soft-headed.

We murdered another person in a boat today. Two survivors.

good politics requires both skills and values. by now most people recognize that johnson is bad at the skills, but it's important to be clear that he *also* has bad values

i've never done a 180 more sharply reading a post

10 years ago today Cops took Dylan Roof to Burger King after he killed 9 Black people This week Cops killed a 1-year-old Black child named Kohen Wiley on lies that his mother stole diapers A 1-year-old Black baby is more threatening to Cops than an armed white supremacist who killed 9 Black people

Point blank in broad daylight

Cessna crashed and broke in half on a highway in Laredo, the only guy who died was the founder of a company called "Capital Factory" who was a maxed out donor to Ted Cruz. Men plan, but Allah also plans, and Allah is the greatest planner

This was my biggest problem as a Marxist-Leninist activist, back when I started organising with Marxist organisations, often led by non Black Marxists here in Europe. I got tired of being around Marxists claiming to understand Dialectical Materialism, but not the lived experiences of Black folks!!

MFers try and act like Marx didn’t say this…

Simply amazing script they gave you. "Why would you assume that knowing me is a net negative for everyone??? I'll have you know I'm a busineess owner, in the military-industrial sector, who pays LOTS of people less than they need to survive on."

[21st centurty nazis] and [intentionally trying to mislead by conflating zionism w/ judaism] Name a more iconic duo.

We have not yet won because we are starting to get more votes. Keep this in mind
