And then someone would be like, and for me, I've got 12% more money on my bank account than last year. And you're like, who invited this guy? This is such a weird way of looking at success. - Slow Down or Die w/ Timothée Parrique @upstreampodcast podcasts.apple.com/u... 5/5

Then you have wealthy people, and then you have a very large majority of the population making a very small percentage of the wages and having no wealth whatsoever. - Migration as Economic Imperialism w/ Immanuel Ness @UpstreamPodcast podcasts.apple.com/u... 4/4

Just finishing this episode. I don’t think there’s much doubt that the US empire is trying really hard to manufacture consent in order to silence anti-capitalist voices, as well as do some good ol’ fashioned resource extraction while at it. #capitalismisdying

NEW EP Immanuel Ness joins us to discuss migration's imperialist roots. Far from being a net positive for the Global South, our system of migration under global capitalism contributes to underdevelopment, uneven and unequal exchange, and dependency of Global South countries.

Highly recommend this @upstreampodcast.bsky.social podcast with Chris Gilbert on Venezuela and socialist communes - communal forms of social production that form the basis of a socialist and anti-imperialist national project. And now under direct military threat from the US.

Solidarity with Venezuela ✊. This is so obviously about oil and regime change. @upstreampodcast.bsky.social has a great series on this

NEW EP jo delamor joins us to discuss how to raise the next generation in a way that repels the toxic values underlying Western civilization and instead fosters those of a post capitalist path

the recognition of a state that excludes its right to have a standing army while also actively funding the foreign army massacring its people is worse than worthless—it's a ruse intended to publicly absolve those responsible for genocide without any material change to business as usual
