Read that as many times as you need. Largest. Child. Massacre. In. Its. History.

Israel just committed *the largest child massacre in its history*, according to Haaretz. Two hundred Palestinian children murdered in a single day, with direct support from the US and UK, and zero outrage from Western media. What stage of barbarism is this...

Fuck off, Bernie

Sheryl Weikal says Prosecute ICE@leftistlawyer.com · 2y ago

People are being disappeared, having their lives uprooted and ruined. And THIS is what you're saying?

Yes. All of the scarcity that we experience in the USA is a result of things being deliberately structured that way. The lack of affordable housing, the lack of public transport, the lack of healthcare, the lack of livable wages, the lack of quality free education, the lack of access to healthy..

Socialism for All (S4A) ☭ Intensify Class Struggle@socialismforall.bsky.social · 2y ago

We are already in a post-scarcity society. Capitalism is creating scarcity artificially within it. Right now, AI is a weapon of capital which is mostly making workers' lives more difficult.

This.

so the bernie/aoc rallies look great on the surface in these trying times & it's unequivocally good for people to meet & connect with one another but you need to prepare yourselves for the reality that the only actual action those two will attempt to inspire these crowds to is voting in the midterms

Never let anyone pull the '[insert a certain type of capitalism here] isn't real capitalism' card on you. It's a common refrain from capitalists of all stripes, whether they're neolibs, libs, conservatives or even socdems.

So it seems Columbia gave the Trump administration everything they wanted and more, including a new "vice provost" who will review curriculum, hiring, and leadership. www.wsj.com/us-news/educ...

idk what you want obama to do rn, now is no time to bomb a wedding

jason hickel: "These studies demonstrate that the government in China enjoys strong popular support, and that most people in China believe their political system is democratic, fair, and serves the interests of the people."

No I will not debate you on Palestine. It's a genocide. The UN, the Special Rapporteur, OxFam, Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, Doctors Without Borders, multiple US state department officials, the Lemkin Institute, and B'Tselem all say it's a genocide. I don't debate flat earthers either.

It's fun how capitalists say "we can't have socialism because people don't trust the state!" Mate, we don't trust the state because it is captured by capital and serves the interest of the capitalist class. It is precisely *because* of capitalism that no one trusts the state.

I'm making some popcorn. Anyone else want some?

The “Dem Socialist” side and the further left you go is filled with racists who are just like their far right cousins. Just in denial. So Black People, proceed with caution. They do not like us, but pretend to.

ITS NOT ENTIRELY BECAUSE THEY ARE STUPID ITS BECAUSE THEY ARE OWNED BY CAPITAL DO YOU THINK THESE PEOPLE KEEP GETTING OUTSMARTED BY DONALD FUCKING TRUMP WAKE UP

Chuck Schumer Helps Pull Democrats Back From Brink Of Courage

The 👏 Democrats 👏 are 👏 collaborators 👏

Chris Hayes@chrislhayes.bsky.social · 2y ago

I asked Schumer about this last night and his answer was basically that they’re wrong.

The collapse of the Soviet Union. Capital has been clawing back every concession it ever made to keep workers from radicalizing ever since then.

Looks like at least a few of the dems in the replies are starting to get it.
