@funanchill@barbarismcrit As if that would be a loss. What has the "left" brought you? Sean Fain? More corruption and back room deals? Time to put the power in the hands of the rank and file.
On Sunday, the World Socialist Web Site is sponsoring an international webinar to outline a strategy and program to stop the brutal imperialist onslaught against Iran. The aim of this discussion is to place this event in its appropriate historical, political and social context.
"I think a general strike is the most effective way to hit them where it hurts. No matter what we do it seems like they're not listening... We don't know it, but we are what is keeping them going. We are providing them with food, transportation, mail, everything."

High school students walked out this morning in Knoxville, Tennessee to oppose ICE terror.
"I don't think this should happen at all. I hate it. So I came here today to be a part of this amazing protest with people that believe in the same thing I do."

I was on MS Now tonight (MSNBC) discussing what I saw during the protests held by children & parents at the Dilley family detention center.
Families like the El Gamal family, who have been there for 8 months, are living in brutal and inhumane conditions.
Free the El Gamals!
Stalinists--whose political tendency has spent decades relying on violence, intimidation, censorship and falsification to suppress genuine socialism--are horrified by Socialism AI.
And they are, frankly, stupid enough to post "gotcha" answers which will only raise this revolutionary new tool in the estimation of all serious socialists.
Welcome Socialism AI!
The launch of Socialism AI marks a significant new stage in the fight for socialist consciousness, to clarify political perspective and to prepare workers and youth for the escalation of class struggle that will define the second half of the 2020s.

"The catastrophe in Tennessee has exposed a fundamental truth: The same capitalist system that sends workers to die on the battlefield also sacrifices them in the factories that feed the war machine." https://t.co/UA1v7NHMp1
"We're scrambling and scraping to actually feed our families. What we value as human beings, what we look at as Democracy is all coming to an end."
How can we fight dictatorship?
"If we were able to unite other countries... and come together as one, we would have the numbers."
Ward Sakeik has been released from the clutches of Trump's dragnet. In this CNN interview, her attorney, Eric Lee, explains how her detention is part of a far-reaching assault on democratic rights.

The historical function of the two-party system in the United States has always been to block the emergence of a mass socialist party that posed the slightest threat to capitalist interests. It is not the rather milquetoast program of Mamdani, who works within the framework of the Democratic Party, that frightens them. It is that his victory reveals that socialism is not anathema to Americans, and that it is capable to acquiring mass support -- and probably in a far more radical form. The specter of a third socialist party, with a mass base, that advocates not merely free bus rides but also nationalizations and expropriations, haunts the corporate-financial oligarchy.
Hard to overstate significance of this release. President of the United States brought the full weight of state power on this one young man and his wife and infant child. But he held strong, never sacrificed his principles, and is now at liberty. A lesson for us all.
Also, what a huge failure on her part to read the room.
Trump is now overturning constitutional restraints on presidential power and raving like a fascist lunatic amid mass protests, and Warren decides strategically: "I really need to find a way to support Trump on something."
Following Donald Trump’s bloodthirsty speech to Special Forces soldiers at Fort Bragg on Tuesday—an open declaration of war on the American people—the US government is accelerating its preparations for military violence on a massive scale.
