‘A Socialist Who Enters a Capitalist Government Ceases To Be a Socialist’ by Wilhelm Liebknecht from The People. Vol. 10 No. 21. August 18, 1900.
A work that entered the canon of revolutionary Marxism as soon as it was printed.

The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel. To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect. Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life.
This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.
@intellegint the hummingbird that posted up on the jobsite last spring. hard to tell from this crappy photo how precarious his perch was, just a thin strip of concrete held up by an errant nail. built his nest on trash, chased out by the evil of progress. school of mines, 2025
Tobey's got this really annoying tendency to make a smug little smile at inappropriate times in these movies. he does it here when he's supposed to be unconscious, he does it when uncle Ben dies. maybe it's just his face but it ruins every scene he does it in for me.
The Womack Sisters are great but the radio DJ needs to stop reminding me they are Bobby's daughters and Sam's granddaughters because it makes me a little sick every time
