Farewell to the servant economy. Unprofitable “on-demand” services like someone bringing a coke to your door gave people a sense of affluence in a decade of stagnant wage growth. But they were subsidised by investors, and now the money is drying up. https://t.co/YsQym8iBLI

The “left” is a politically activated portion of the PMC which advocates for its own immediate interests, rather than advocating any kind of political-economic development that would generally advance society beyond neoliberal, financialized capitalism. https://t.co/ytKy6H10lu

Class Collective's co-founder Alex Shah (@notsoluble) was recently a guest on Trasmissions, a podcast hosted by the good folks at @ClassUnityDSA. They discuss identity politics, imperialism, working class literature, and a whole lot more. Don't miss it!

There it is: a gallon of gas costs more than the federal minimum wage

People often claim that capitalism performed better than socialism in terms of poverty and human development in the 20th century. This story is repeated so frequently that no one ever even bothers to back it up.

Is it true? 🧵

[Institute for Christian Socialism @SmashMammon]

Read this superb interview with @DeanDettloff at @collectivemgzn on the intersections of Marxism and Christianity:

"The fact is, class struggle cuts through Christianity, not simply against it."

What does the Marxist tradition have in common with the Christian one?

We sat down with @DeanDettloff of @TheMagnificast to discuss where the sickle and the cross meet, and what lessons both leftists and Christians can learn from one another.

“Any genuine diversity effort really needs to also address material barriers relating to class and economic disadvantage that come along with being marginalised. That means paying creators for their time, and for their work, to start with."

RD Liang was a towering figure in the anti-psychiatry movement. Famously, he described insanity as 'a perfectly rational adjustment to an insane world'.

He reminds us that it's not always our brain chemistry that makes us sick, but the capitalist system we inhabit.

Today is Karl Marx's birthday.

Over a century after his death, his voice still echoes across continents, urging the working classes to look beyond what separates them and join together to fight against an exploitative system of wage labour.
