I do not believe there is such a thing as an Israeli proletarian. From what I understand it's Palestinian and migrants from the Global South doing working class jobs. Plus, I do not believe there is an "Israeli Left." Everyone who is against the genocide has already left.
English author of aristocratic birth, Jessica Mitford, died on July 23, 1996 in Oakland, California. A member of the Communist Party USA from 1943 to 1958, Mitford refused to testify before HUAC, was active in the civil rights movement, and wrote "The American Way of Death." #OTD
@Unpop_Science The people who torture and kill women and children and animals overseas come home and they are the same people. They will continue to torture and kill women and children and animals back home. This is obvious to any with common sense.
A navy seal from the “American Sniper” team illegally killed a beloved, docile, fenced-in alligator with a power drill.
Prosecutors gave him a misdemeanor instead of the felony charge required under law.
“Landlords grow rich in their sleep without working, risking, or economizing. The increase in the value of land, arising as it does from the efforts of an entire community, should belong to the community and not to the individual who might hold title.” - John Stuart Mill (1848)
I still can't wrap my head around the fact that there are still 50,000 people missing from the Venezuela earthquakes.
Imagine if a disaster of that scale happened in the US. Fifty thousand people is roughly the entire population of Palm Springs, California. Picture every single resident of that city just gone.
If that many people vanished under rubble in a Western country, it would be the only thing on every news channel, every single day, for months.
Instead, it feels like this massive tragedy has just been brushed under the carpet by the mainstream media cycle. The sheer scale of the devastation in places like La Guaira is unfathomable, yet the world has largely looked away.
Every single one of those 50,000 missing people is someone’s child, parent, or friend. The global silence around this humanitarian crisis is deafening.
It was “manifest destiny” also known as white supremacy that really did it. Stolen land given to settlers. Slaughtering the Bison to starve out Indigenous people. Clearing Prairie grass, mono cropping, and in turn killing the top soil. All bc “God granted them” that land.
“Felony camping” is the charge they have made up for being homeless and are using this against that community to ship them off for slave labor at the prisons.
@ProudSocialist They're not being treasonous against a state which exists to be capitalist and imperialists. The US is a settler colonial state just like Israel and it should be replaced by Turtle Island.
