Mind you, Cuba accomplished this while under the most excruciating sanctions. Imagine everything they could do if the US sanctions were lifted.
Long live the Cuban revolution!!! Long live Fidel!! Long live Raul!! Love live Che!!!
without class consciousness & political education, the masses in the imperial core will continue to self id w the politics of liberalism even if their desires for change go far beyond.
most communists/socialists in the us went on their ideological journey because of bernie’s insurgent “democratic socialist” campaign in 2016 when he ran as a democrat against hillary clinton. the electoral system is a viable route to reach the masses w an alternative. this is what the moneyed interest in both parties fear, this is why they spend against their left flank & fight it tooth and nail.
we must continue helping people awaken to the reality of this systems design that creates such inequality, it is not the migrant workers, nor trans people, or muslims or jews- but the billionaires and the parasitic forces of capital and its servants that are responsible for the deteriorating material conditions.
Moral panic about people with zero societal power shoplifting at Whole Foods while billionaires and corporations raze human civilization into the ground and amid U.S. funded genocide.... like are you not embarrassed
Something that I think has become more pronounced among the current cohort of neoliberals/centrists is a clear disgust for the concept of understanding things. Why did 9/11 happen? October 7th? United CEO murder? Any answer other than "bad people are bad" shatters their world.
Hasan Piker just introduced the concept of social murder to a bunch of new listeners and centrists have no clue how hard this resonates with the average person. They are still fighting in the jungle when have lost the war.
the weird obsession with Hasan Piker clicks into place when you realize that everyone in politics/media is a lifelong nerd, while Hasan looks, to them, like a big strong scary jock who might shove them into the lockers of their youth
Alcohol is trying to kill the Cannabis industry because they are scared of how much their sales have plummeted.
Cannabis is slowly killing the Alcohol industry and I FUCKING LOVE IT.
Hasan Piker: “If you steal from the poor, you become rich. If you steal from the wealthy, you go to prison. There’s only one direction where you can do unlimited theft. Wage theft is the most consequential amount of theft that takes place in the United States of America”
People are too obsessed with the Democrats. They’re part of the genocidal empire and irrelevant to the left’s mission. Throw them in the trash and move on.
You do not earn a billion dollars. You steal it. Nobody works a billion times harder than a nurse, a teacher, or a farmer. That money comes from underpaying the people who actually did the work. Stop worshipping hoarders who are just really good at wage theft.
🇫🇷🇺🇸 Historiador francés: Tras toda una vida de reflexión, he llegado a la conclusión de que desmantelar el poder estadounidense es el primer paso hacia la paz en este planeta.
"I'm not political I just want to enjoy my weekend"
YOUR WEEKEND WAS FOUGHT FOR BY LABOR
UNIONS AND ORGANIZERS SO YOU COULD ENJOY TWO DAYS OFF. EVERYTHING IS POLITICAL.
There shouldn’t be a global food system. Food systems should be regional. That’s the only proven way for them to be sustainable. The same problems would exist even if a global food system relied on a different fuel.
Folks need to accept that the entire system is exploitative.
