Whether it's Jay-Z, Nas, & Puffy supporting a Wall Street candidate for NYC mayor in 2021 or 50 Cent, Snoop, & Nelly performing for fascists or Lil Wayne badmouthing the BLM movement, so many of your favorite rappers from the 90s are counter-insurgents & counter-revolutionaries.

Cada llegada del Man al palacio de Nariño es un viaje en helicóptero. Algún medio ya lleva la cuenta de cuántas veces desde que se posesionó, él y su esposa lo han usado, ¿ O eso era condenable y nos costaba mucho con Francia M. que lo uso 2 veces ?

If you ask pro-capitalist people why a job like, say, sanitation work has such an abysmal wage even though the job is necessary, they’ll tell you that it is an unskilled occupation. We could contest that, but for the sake of argument, let’s concede. By this logic, value is derived from how much labor is required to accomplish something—in this case, the labor of learning the skill in addition to the labor of completing the task at hand. A doctor, then, would earn a much higher wage because of the labor required to obtain the necessary degrees to practice. Okay. But then, if you ask a pro-capitalist people again why the price of a pair of glasses, a mattress, or even a bottle of water is so expensive, despite these things being cheap and easy to make, they’ll tell you that value is not determined by the labor that goes into producing something, but by need and demand. This inconsistency reveals how neoliberal economics functions: the value of something means whatever is most convenient for the ruling class.

Esto tendría que brindarnos alguna perspectiva.

He visto cientos de videos de rescatistas después del terremoto. Nadie, absolutamente nadie, ha salido así, con medio cuerpo afuera, con los escombros como escenografía. Es lo más repugnante, lo más cínico, lo más asqueroso que he visto.

Son los soldados israelíes en Colombia.

liberals love inheriting the moral victories of movements they would have called too radical in real time and then rewriting those victories as proof that moderation works

"I've made very clear that I do not believe in defunding the police, that I will not be defunding the police, & that to me, delivering critical public safety also looks like working with our police department, alongside many other partners, & we've seen over the first 7 months of this administration what that can look like when we're talking about the fewest murders on record in NYC, the fewest shooting incidents on record in NYC, and that to me is how we measure a lot of our public safety." -@NYCMayor

The NYPD budget stayed flat and crime went down, but instead of using this as an opportunity to educate the public that funding the police doesn't correlate to more public safety, he makes the opposite case.

This pivot is so unscrupulous. It really takes your breath away.

Declaración política:

LA ENTREGA DE NUESTRA SOBERANÍA A ESTADOS UNIDOS

Lo advertimos: el ciudadano estadounidense Abelardo de la Espriella pretende entregar nuestro gobierno, nuestro territorio y nuestra soberanía a los intereses estratégicos de Estados Unidos.

Con el anuncio realizado por el secretario de Guerra de Estados Unidos comienza una nueva y grave etapa, en la que Colombia corre el riesgo de dejar de ejercer plenamente su soberanía y convertirse en un laboratorio geopolítico y en una plataforma de operaciones militares estadounidenses para toda la región, sin los controles democráticos, constitucionales e institucionales que corresponden a una nación soberana.

La invitación formulada por De la Espriella constituye un acto de extrema gravedad política y una renuncia inadmisible al principio de soberanía nacional. Ningún gobierno puede disponer del territorio colombiano ni permitir la presencia o el tránsito de tropas extranjeras al margen de la Constitución y de las instituciones de la República.

El artículo 173 de la Constitución Política es inequívoco:

“Corresponde al Senado permitir el tránsito de tropas extranjeras por el territorio de la República.”

La soberanía de Colombia no se negocia, no se entrega y no puede quedar subordinada a los intereses militares de ninguna potencia extranjera. Defenderla es defender la dignidad de la Nación, la independencia de la República y el derecho del pueblo colombiano a decidir libremente sobre su territorio y su destino.

a 20/20/20 game intentionally in honor of Nipsey Hussle is probably one of the greatest feats in sports history. basically Babe Ruth pointing his bat to the stands, but for Crips.

Este video es fascinante. No porque sea una sorpresa, sino porque EEUU nunca había dicho tan clara y oficialmente que los países al sur del Río Grande no tenemos soberanía real sobre nuestros territorios y nuestros pueblos. Somos sus colonias.

[Old Man Perez @IolaElla]

Truly unreal AOC and Chi decided to unveil there “woke 1 was crazy” messaging on the anniversary of Mike Browns murder, so unprincipled and loser politics

[The Last Farm @TheLastFarm]

Anyone who says “woke 1 was crazy” to wave away their publicly stated positions just means “I don’t believe in anything and I will tell you whatever I think you want to hear at the moment”

the ancient greeks had far more interactions with africa than with germanic barbarians from the north. in the first book of the iliad the gods are not on olympus but feasting with the ethiopians, the only mortals they consider worthy of their company
