The opposite of “worker” isn’t “boss” or “manager”, it’s actually “owner.”

That’s literally a libertarian framework argument, lol, yeah. This is why we should not treat them as harmless clowns but as dangerous existential threats.

People who tell you to “vote blue” and vote “lesser evil” are exactly the same as the Pinkerton who tells striking workers to cross the picket line, that being a scab is a “lesser evil” to losing a paycheck or risking the factory getting closed.

Incredibly funny to watch the right wing going Oh so just because I love money and hate poor people I'm a bad Christian according to "the pope"???

Look at this fascistic evil piece of shit. Just look. These fucking disgusting monsters are literally saying that brown people in the Middle East aren’t real people, and then asking if I’m secretly racist because I don’t like killing them.

“He never punched down” dude he reigned fire on poor Arabs for 8 years! He dropped one bomb for every 8 minutes of his presidency! Do brown people really matter so little to you all?

OpenAI: We’re burning money like the Joker. A miracle needs to happen for us to turn a profit Microsoft: Please please use our AI systems, we’re teetering on the edge here Anthropic: I wonder what’ll kill us first: lawsuits, regulations or model collapse Media and universities: AI is here to stay

The lesson to learn from Orban’s defeat is not that it’s a mistake to run on a coherent left platform, as Matt Yglesias wants people to believe, but that you have to have a strong disciplined political movement and support, no matter the political program. He’s always lying and misdirecting.

No one: Matty Yglesias: Here are my most racist views

Property taxes are the scariest thing she’s seen

For the 1st time in NY State history: a tax on pied-à-terres. Mayor Mamdani just negotiated a landmark agreement, any 2nd home in NYC valued at $5M+ will be taxed at a higher rate. Money back to the people, not billionaires treating the city as a luxury storage unit. 100 days. That's all it took.

if you get more work done while the bluesky servers are down the gods of posting will note your hubris and find a way to punish you for it

You don't fuckin say

I had no idea this was a thing! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorr_Re...

Again: for any big liberal donor who wants to funnel millions into fixing this country's politics, the ROI on buying any struggling paper and simply tasking it with doing real reporting on local news is vastly higher than the same $$ given to some group that does mass ad buys every election year.

There’s a Bible story about a rich couple who lies to Jesus’s followers, saying they donated all their wealth, but secretly kept some. God immediately kills them outright. Best Bible story. God hates rich people.

BREAKING: elected official close to her own expiration doesn’t care if vulnerable constituents in marginalized groups die; advocates for giving excessively rich people in one singular family more money instead btw, she’s not MNGOP either

I come across to some people as defeatist, but that’s not true. I talk about things that don’t work, and can’t work, as if they don’t work. But there’s plenty of things I talk about that can and would work.

A+ headline. defector.com/president-ex...

pope leo: murder is bad every republican: how dare you mention me

The worse people want to kill us and they're ok with it because they will die rich 🤷🏿

[deep breath] the project of defining discrimination as acknowledging differences between groups is a long term, conservative project fully embraced by the reactionary court and intended to make it so selecting for merit rather than inherited privilege is illegal

People like this aren’t Marxists. They’re either illiterate, or they’re payops. I can’t see any other alternative. All of the ideas presented here are anti-communist ideas Marx and Lenin explicitly wrote against, repeatedly.

These infants have “Marxism” in their handles, and pretend Lenin and Marx didn’t actually intend to win. What offensively fucking stupid morons these people are.

Funny how all the fiscally conservative white men are rapists. Yes, I know he’s a standard mainstream Democrat, but that also means he’s a conservative far to the right of the average American. So my point stands.

This word, “electoralism,” which didn’t exist 10 years ago btw, has done such harm to socialism, it’s ridiculous. Communists are supposed to run candidates to win elections. That’s a thing that supposed to happen, not a thing that is supposed to be rejected.

The only accounts that get popular talking about Marx and Lenin are lying to you about Marx and Lenin.

Do we want a Big “money” Tent, or do we want a Big “people” Tent. You have to choose one or the other, because it’s really a zero-sum game, mutually exclusive appeal. You can have a socialist Big Tent of People. Or you can have a centrist “Big Tent” of billionaires. That’s it, can’t have both.

Big Tent. A “Big Tent” for socialists means big in terms of huge numbers of the working class, the largest in terms of PEOPLE. For the “moderate” or “centrist,” they mean “big enough” to hold billionaire *money,* and far LESS people, and therefore *less votes.* A Centrist Tent is a SMALLER TENT.

The woman who wrote today's Bulwark slop about protesters is, tell me if you've heard this one before, a proponent of a "big tent" Democratic Party that is paradoxically not big enough for anyone who care about LGBTQ people or immigrants.

Excerpt from The Myth of Red Texas: Cowboys, Populism, and Class War in the Radical South by @davidgriscom.bsky.social, available April 14 from OR Books. A multiracial coalition of poor farmers almost remade Texas politics — until elites unleashed an all‑out campaign of terror to stop them.

The bulwark is a Nazi paper, and Lauren-Egan is a Nazi.

Training them to do useless things as cope. It would be better to do something useful, train in useful things.

I wrote about The Pitt's horrifying ICE episode, and how Daredevil: Born Again does what Dr. Robby can't: call them fascists, then break their skulls open with ninja weapons

The Democrats are exactly as evil as the GOP and Trump, literally zero difference because they’re the same. I’m fucking sick of you piece of shit Dem voters pretending you’re any better than MAGA, you’re all evil.

Technical petpeeve of mine, but we already have far, far more than two parties. We have over 3,000 Democratic and Republican parties. We have lots of coalitions and caucuses. We have countless special interests. The problem is we don’t recognize this and organize or votes to take advantage.

Our leaders are cowards and would have been complicit in the murder of millions of people. Vote Green.

Democrats pretending this isn’t their own war, meanwhile:

This is pure cope.

Respectfully, Congresswoman, any single member of Congress can introduce an impeachment resolution. All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is for the “good” members of Congress to do nothing.

The thing about the Iran thing, like the genocide of Gaza before it: it’s BIPARTISAN. You can’t be party to either of the two that are in this agreement, and then say you objected to this. This all happens with your bipartisan support! All of this is on you too.

The UK must immediately and unequivocally suspend support for the US military. The Government have tried to appease him, then they tried to say they're standing up to him. Words aren't enough - it's time for action.

Democrats really think they aren’t directly responsible for this. Hey Dems: You are directly responsible for this too. This is on you too.

WALTER CRONKITE (gravely):

Most annoying thing about US politics is the know it all’s who say “it’s a two party system!” but don’t really know what that means. Party, in the same sense as a court case with “2 parties” which can be 1 v 1, a group against an individual, or 2 groups. “Parties to the case.”

U.S. “parties” aren’t real parties, they’re ballot labels. There’s a huge difference.

I need to know if a faction exists that argues that both the clean break and dirty break are incorrect, and we should invest into forming a swing bloc in both major parties instead.
