Africa’s ruling class isn’t a fully independent bourgeoisie, they’re intermediaries.
They manage extraction on behalf of foreign capital in exchange for personal accumulation
"AOC has repeatedly criticized MTG for being insincere about criticizing the genocide in Gaza. Well, MTG has used much stronger language in calling out this genocide than AOC, & nobody is stopping AOC from using the same language. So my answer is: If you don't want to see Tucker Carlson or whoever else it is filling up this space and speaking out against the Israeli genocide, then you do it." -@AliAbunimah
I mean this with every fiber of my being. The faster Peter Thiel dies the better humanity will be. Quote me. I think he’s the most dangerous man alive.
Hasan Piker: “We’ve all seen what Israel actually represents which is a belligerent genocidal apartheid nation that is willing to destroy the entire fucking planet’s energy markets in an effort to achieve one of it’s military objectives of destroying the only sovereign nation in the region, Iran, from being a military deterrence against their Greater Israel project. You can sit around and say that’s antisemitic, it’s just the fucking reality”
Trump making the NBA finals at MSG all about him is too perfect. Show up 2 hours early, no watch parties outside. He can't fathom not being the center of attention even if forcing himself on to us will lead to loud boos and intense hatred. Fundamentally broken man.
@anastasiaz007@jacksonhinkle Look at this bs it a word salad that means nothing in reference to the video. Again 90 % of American wishes don’t go into law. Oligarchs control everything address that! I triple dog dare you to stay on topic
Jimmy Dore: "We preach democracy to China. But we don't have democracy here - the oligarchs run everything. The Princeton study proved 90% of people's wishes never become law. Only the top 10% of wealthy matter."
James Carville backs Graham Platner: “We’ve got a fucked up guy who could be 100x more fucked up than he is and he’d never be as fucked up as what we’ve got in Washington. This country is about to lose it, the whole goddamn thing. We gotta win this. If we got a person that’s understandably got issues, good. Maybe people oughta see it and maybe we oughta be reminded what these stupid wars have brought about and the consequence of said stupid wars that stupid Susan Collins’ been for all of her political life”
@strategery_mr@InternetH0F Which I’ll concede but the options you laid out all provided a worldview you could accept. It’s not even on the table for you that Mamdani could have had an impact. But why would it right?
Democrats don’t exist to defeat Republicans, they exist to block progressive movements from access to political power. Ignore the “workers rights” window dressing. Their primary commitment is to protect capital accumulation.
Dividing the country into liberals and conservatives is the ultimate distraction from the real divide: top to bottom. The parasite ruling class stoked the culture wars while pillaging our wages, jacking up prices, and doing irreparable harm to the world we live in.
So yeah, this isn’t democrats vs. republicans, it’s billionaires vs. everyone else.
If you’re tired of getting screwed by the system, please support our campaign. Let’s get Greg Stoker elected to TX-31.

@strategery_mr@InternetH0F What boggles my mind is the lack of good faith analysis. It shows the goal isn’t a solution it’s facts that confirm your worldview.
I have never seen a billionaire preach socialism, but every day on here, we see poor struggling working class defend capitalism. lol. I still can’t wrap my head around that.
People crave a party that is strong in standing for principles. It means having opposed the genocide, the war in Iraq & Iran, and not voting to give Trump permission for mass deportation without due process.
Hasan Piker: “If you think there’s a significant amount of antisemitism on the Democratic party side as opposed to the Republicans, you’re a delusional person. Antisemitism is morally repugnant, it’s completely unacceptable and unfortunately it happens. We have to analyze why antisemitism grows in this country. Antisemitism grows in this country historically during unprecedented levels of violence that Israel commits against the Palestinians, the Lebanese population, against Arabs as a whole. Israel does this unlimited violence with unlimited tax dollars from the USA and it also claims it’s doing this kind of violence for Judaism. This false conflation is a very dangerous one”
