The Allegory of the Cave 2.0: when AI casts shadows on the wall For us today, the cave wall is the screen of our phones and televisions; the shadows are not cast by statues, but by algorithms, deepfakes, AI swarms, and neuromarketing techniques en.granma.cu/mundo/2026-0...

Capitalist competition is framed as a contest between companies vying for market share and profits. In reality, it is a global struggle for control over wealth and power. They told you it was about pricing and markets. In truth, it is about worldwide domination draped in a flimsy cloak.

YouTube is apparently trying to break site functionality for people using Ad Blockers. adguard.com/en/blog/yout...

If the tariffs are paid back to US companies I will fully believe this was a planned transfer of wealth all along

If you were surprised by this, update your analysis and thinking and don’t be taken off guard again. We need struggle grounded in revolutionary scientific socialism.

The problem with "Israel controls the US" is that it necessarily assumes we wouldn't support the genocide in Occupied Palestine unless they coerce us. And that's just an ahistorical take to the point of being outright fiction.

Night in the Woods and Tunic publisher Finji says TikTok has been using generative AI to modify its ads and push them to its users without permission, including one ad that was modified to include a racist, sexualized stereotype of one of Finji's characters. https://bit.ly/4kKnB5L

“Judeo Christian” = racist, colonizer, capitalist, imperialist, right wing war program.

A ruler is imposed upon the people by those with power. A leader earns the trust of the people by working tirelessly for their cause.

You really don't have to say "they're not perfect but..." every time you say anything positive about a country resisting western imperialism. Just say the positive thing.

Not only is this a betrayal to core campaign promises, he’s using neoliberal rhetoric to paint libraries as “costs” rather than capacity. i.e. what @moneyontheleft.bsky.social calls Neoliberal Public Finance. moneyontheleft.org/2025/10/10/d...

"We owe conspiracy theorists a huge apology" No we fucking don't. They were talking about a secret conspiracy of gay trans Jewish lizard people. The Epstein files uncovered a conspiracy of rich, straight, white, right-wing Christian men, which these motherfuckers never even considered.

The supposed trade-off between security and freedom is a lie. In truth, freedom requires security, for insecurity breeds the violent oppression that destroys freedom.

Just found out that otters are not only a protected animal in the DPRK (designated by the state as a living natural monument), but they also have a large otter reserve in Poptong County with deep valleys and many streams full of catfish, minnow, loach, crayfish and crabs for them to enjoy 🤎

Sounds like they're going to just ignore the court ruling and continue the tariffs anyway. This is what happens when rulings are selectively enforced.

If this tariff ruling stands, expect nothing to change. The corporations that rule us will simply be refunded for tariffs they never actually paid; having already passed the full cost on to us. Prices will remain exactly where they are, because they know you will pay them.

Iran is one of the world's leading producers of radiopharmaceuticals used for cancer diagnostics and treatments. And to diagnose cancer and make cancer drugs, you need medical isotopes. And you can’t make medical isotopes without enriching uranium.

As communists, we need to push back against the liberal commemorations of the United States’ 250th anniversary, just as we push back against anything the MAGA fascists have in mind. Nothing can be salvaged. The foundations of the U.S. political project are rotten. It’s an abomination.

When homeless people are able to stay wherever is convenient for them, it is actually easier for them to access services, be found by caseworkers and relief providers, which would make it easier for them to escape homelessness.

Newsflash, homeless people don't have to be swept! They can stay wherever they figured they can set themselves up to survive. They ended up there because they were pushed out of housing by hard times. It doesn't matter how unsightly these real humans who are suffering are to you! Deal.

The freedom of speech was always a lie. Now starvation faces those who speak wrongly in the west. electronicintifada.net/blogs/ali-ab...

I see they're doing the whole; war is coming, war is not coming, oh its coming, no its not; thing again.

george jackson was literally writing for an audience of black people who have spent most of their life in california prisons

I wonder if they'll use the State of The Union to declare war on Iran.

If the U.S. mail did not already exist, it could not be created today. The same is true of public libraries, public parks, public schools; every tattered public system we still cling to.

The reason the Democrats have increased ICE funding before and will again is because they love la migra as much as the Republicans do

I think a reason so many people want to be streamers right now is that it is the only path to something resembling freedom they can see.

Every single thing I say and do that aids even slightly in the cause of the liberation of the masses is my greatest joy. What can be better than freeing the people of the world? There is nothing better I could possibly do with any moment than give it to our liberation.

If the "U.S." government interferes in elections across the globe, how much more manufactured must its own elections be?

I think people usually call this going back to normal, you know, when they kill and kidnap nonwhite people and no one writes pop songs about it.

it’s incredibly concerning that every mass shooter is a far right trump supporter

The "U.S." is committing election interference again. link: thecradle.co/articles-id/...

Mf log on here and pretend that things just happen in a vacuum. The USA funds the IDF, and IDF trains USA cops. The oppression is all part of the same system. You cannot care about one and not the other!!

War is the only export the "U.S." has left to offer the world.

🗞️ Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei responded Tuesday to Pres. Trump’s threats aboard Air Force One, as the second round of indirect US–Iran nuclear talks concluded in Geneva, mediated by Oman. Trump had said Iran “wants to make a deal” and “I don’t think they want the consequences of...

ICE killed a teacher in Georgia today when they chose to chase a man who posed no danger and had no criminal history.

Beware of any who come promising to save you. Any salvation granted can be taken away. To be truly saved the masses must save themselves. That is the only true and durable salvation.

I know it’s asking a lot from liberals but please pay attention to how your alleged “good guys” in politics, from Keir Starmer to Hillary Clinton, are lining up to put more of a target on immigrants. At what point do you take issue with the fact that they’re agreeing with fascists?

This is how a liberal talks to someone that was against the slaughter of a foreign nation perpetuated by our entire government. I will keep posting these examples and Im keeping an archive. I want these to be in history books someday

Capitalism and democracy cannot coexist. When one person holds the power to decide whether another lives or dies, they are that person's master. No election can change this fundamental truth.
