KTLA News called it mysterious urban warfare as if it’s something happening out of the blue but it’s not mysterious at all but a warning to the working class that we can murder you with impunity as we have done to innocent fishermen off the coast of Latin America and Caribbean. All we have to do is call you a narco-terrorist to justify droning you and your family. Thank you Obama for setting the stage for Trump to carry out these barbaric measures.
Workers must take this as a warning and organize against the root cause, capitalist and imperialist barbarism. https://t.co/pVWUazpLQN
This scale of the concentration of wealth must, with inexorable logic, produce massive social upheaval and revolution, as surely as it did in 1789 and 1917. https://t.co/iw9S3IplmX
While they promise pie-in-the-sky “universal basic income” schemes they have no intention of delivering, the oligarchs are seizing an ever greater share of society’s wealth. https://t.co/iw9S3IplmX
Musk is the most flagrant representative of a criminal financial oligarchy, not only in his fortune but in his open embrace of fascism and his cultural backwardness, the very portrait of the American ruling class. https://t.co/iw9S3IplmX
The technology industry has cut more than 140,000 jobs this year, many of them due to artificial intelligence, and the investors bidding SpaceX toward $1.75 trillion are paying for the promise that the working class will be impoverished. https://t.co/iw9S3IplmX
The US ruling class's animosity to the Cubans is driven by geostrategic objectives and vindictiveness over the 1959 revolution and the loss of control of the island’s economy and Mafia casinos - The balance sheet of Castroism as Trump prepares war on Cuba

“This faith in reason, in truth, in human solidarity, which at the age of eighteen I took with me into the workers’ quarters of the provincial Russian town of Nikolaev—this faith I have preserved fully and completely.” - Trotsky https://t.co/XnhvtJGNkv
The final chapters of My Life, which focus on the struggle that developed inside the Bolshevik Party, are the most directly polemical. The retrospective tone of the memoirist shifts decisively to one of active combat. https://t.co/XnhvtJGNkv
Trotsky’s account of the events of 1917 should be sufficient to cure even the most hardcore case of political skepticism, which is rooted in the conviction that change is impossible, and, if it does come, it will be only for the worse. https://t.co/XnhvtJGNkv
