Searching for clarity in an insane world / humanity first
For anyone who truly believes all peoples and nations are equal, the moral bankruptcy of the West has been utterly exposed. The neo-colonial division of the world into haves and have-nots can no longer be rationalised or ignored.

The billionaire ruling class reigns as the top 1%, controls more wealth than the bottom 95% of humanity while the mega-corporations they own and control are shaping global rules to serve their interests at the expense of people everywhere.

Sorry to disappoint but the military isn't coming to save anyone. They serve capitalism and imperialism. They're part of the problem. What is a trillion dollar army really for but for hegemony.

The Western political leadership are willing partners w/the US in the genocide of Palestinians. They all fraternize with a wanted war criminal. They have all committed war crimes in G'za and in the global south. Their support for the US invasion of Venezuela should come as no surprise.

A reminder on #marxistmonday: Che Guevara said the revolution is not an apple that falls when it is ripe. You have to make it fall; to actively work, struggle, and create the conditions for it to occur, rather than waiting for the right moment or for external forces to bring it about.

During his presidency, Obama approved the use of 563 drone strikes that killed approximately 3,797 people. One of the first CIA drone strikes under Obama was at a funeral, murdering as many as 41 Pakistani civilians, -the legality of which is still in question.

📌Capitalism persuades us that we are all temporarily embarrassed millionaires. It's a hypnotizing fairy tale. In reality, some people are extremely rich because others are extremely poor: massive wealth depends on mass exploitation. #socialistsunday

Congress never authorized the war in Korea; Their vote explicitly opposing the invasion of Cambodia didn’t stop Richard Nixon from doing it anyway. Even after the Cold War, Bill Clinton regularly acted unilaterally. He sent the military to Somalia, Haiti, Bosnia and Kosovo, among other places.

Don't get it twisted this isn't the first time a US president has broken international and national laws in service of imperialism. They unleashed the weight and destruction of 2000 lb bombs on a defenseless population, think Hiroshima x 6. The AIPAC controlled Congress rubber-stamped it.

📌 If memory serves this U.S. officials operated a program of "extraordinary rendition" - the capture, abduction, and transfer of (suspected) terrorists to detention in clandestine overseas prisons known as "black sites", in the so-called war on terror. Venezuela isn't an outlier.
