@msnbc.com reporter at the 1:15 mark. “The chaos you’re seeing is not the result of peaceful protestors, it’s the result of actions of law enforcement, specifically the Los Angeles sheriff’s department.” #nokings

Happy #SocialistSunday comrades!

It's not true that poverty causes crime. It is true that laws criminalize the "violations," associated with poverty but celebrate the theft and murder perpetrated by the wealthy.

Conservatives don't know what a lot of words mean which is why they use words like "woke," "CRT," and "DEI" as catch-alls for things they don't like

Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦 ✊

If you are gutting healthcare and food assistance for millions of Americans, you are absolutely not “pro life.”

#WolffBites: Dont be fooled. Musk and DOGE just repackage old policies. They fire gov't workers to end regulations of businesses who want to profit without worrying about side-effects hurting the public. DOGE is good for profits, bad for us.

"I do not think that life will change for the better without an assault on the Establishment which goes on exploiting the wretched of the earth." Black Panther founder and revolutionary Marxist Huey P. Newton was born on this day in 1942.

Charities are just bandaids for problems that shouldn't exist in the first place.

Cops siding with Amazon and arresting picketers is a great reminder of who cops actually serve and protect. #amazon #cops #picket #union #solidarity #capitalism

Personally I think it's okay to want someone to fail at doing things that you think are harmful or evil.

Good fuckin' point! #DelayDenyDepose

A corporate death panel can use an algorithm to decide you will die suffering, and then accuse you of being a person behind a keyboard who has lost your humanity.

How can you genuinely think Daniel Penny is a hero for what he did but Luigi Mangione isn't? While I don't wish for the death of either of their victims, there is no argument which was more deserving. 1/3 #luigi #luigimangione #danielpenny #ceo #brianthompson #theadjuster #freeluigi

The journalistic imperative to tell the truth doesn't magically go away because someone died

The very people who are so eager to condemn any and all violence are somehow also eager to pass an $820 billion military budget. How exactly does that work again?

The whole point of "render unto Caesar," is that nothing really belongs to Caesar/empire/capitalism because he's a punk ass bitch compared to God.

This is a really good #podcast! If you have any interest in the #bible, #thewordinblackandred is going through it page by page with some great analysis. They've helped me see some of the stories I've heard all my life from a new, #leftist perspective.

What's cool about America is that the NYPD are going to put like 10000x the effort into catching this Health Insurance CEO shooter than if he had just gunned down a random poor person, because the rich and powerful are inherently more important, and everyone understands that perfectly well.

BREAKING: Amnesty International says Israel is committing genocide in Gaza in new report:

Jeff Bezos makes over $14,000 in the span of time that a worker earns 50 cents.

Notice how it's always "America was founded on Christian principles!" until it comes to welcoming the immigrant, helping the poor, feeding the hungry, bringing healthcare to the sick, forgiving debts, caring for our planet, laying down our swords, or loving our neighbors.

"Repeat after me: there was no 'landslide'. There was no 'blowout'. There was no 'sweeping' mandate given to Trump by the electorate. The numbers don’t lie." My new Guardian op-ed on the new GOP election lie - and why it's important to rebut it! I brought (lots of) receipts:

Good news everyone! The Montana Legislature has just voted no on banning Rep. Zooey Zephyr from the bathroom. Representative Beady, a Republican, said that banning her would "only serve as a distraction," and “will only have the effect of making certain people famous in the news." Video here:

Overzealots has some really good videos on #socialism. I highly recommend you check them out.

I had 4 days off and by the end of that time I was thinking about creative pursuits, maybe even getting involved in my community. Thank god that's over now

#AnarchistAdvent is here!!!!!

Alright, let's see how many friends I can make with this: Billionaires shouldn't exist.

Here we go. Trying out this #bluesky thing. Never used Twitter much, except to follow people with ideas I liked but I like the idea of trying this. Speaking my own thoughts to the void and seeing what comes back. Cheers!
