No one experiencing the tragedy of a miscarriage should be arrested, much less abandoned in jail for 5 months with a $100k bond. But that’s exactly what happened to Mallori Patrice Strait in Texas. Women, particularly women of color, in this country are no longer allowed dignity even in extreme loss

Our secret-police immigration regime exists to maintain a vast servant class that lives in terror without rights. Unions threaten that.
ICE recently conducted a raid of farm workers, seemingly focused on pro-union worker leaders.
On Friday in New York the federal agents stopped a bus and, armed with a list, appeared to single out those who have been doing union organizing for years.

UPDATE from the attacked Gaza aid ship:
They're trying to enter Maltese territory because of damage to the ship, and fears of a possible second attack.
The Maltese Coast Guard is allegedly blocking them.
"I am just following orders from higher authorities," an officer is heard over the radio.

Video from February, when Sen. John Fetterman got in an argument with a pilot about wearing his seatbelt so it was visible.
“Sir, if you want to go to Pittsburgh, it's simple: you have to follow our instructions or you're gonna be asked to get off the airplane.”
“We're not asking much.”

I understand that the University is dying, and will eventually be replaced by some kind of new world of for profit online job training modules, but in the interregnum do we really have to endure the morbid symptoms of programs in "Leadership studies" and "Entrepreneurship"?

In Capital vol. 3, Marx writes that he wants to examine capitalism in its "idealen Durchschnitt." This is usually translated as "ideal average," but I believe a more accurate translation would be "ideal cross-section." I think this is a geological metaphor rather than a mathematical one. 1/5

Dear Marxists💕
I just started working on a book on capitalism’s influence on our most intimate spaces and personal relationships with the worktitle “Kapitalforhold”.
But I could use some help from my clever followers (thnx #DanishMarxism!) due to not having alot of people to burden with my projects

83% all plant life in Gaza destroyed: two devastating reports on Israel's genocide
Two reports detail the hideous consequences of Israel's Western-facilitated genocide. And yet the Western media bury or ignore them altogether.

The ICC’s arrest warrants are long overdue.
The Prime Minister & Foreign Secretary must immediately endorse this decision. That is the bare minimum.
Will the UK government now, finally, honour its international obligations to prevent genocide and end all arms sales to Israel?

As the ICC finally issues arrest warrants for Israel’s leaders, here’s a promise.
To those who helped facilitate Israel’s genocide - Western politicians, media outlets, and journalists:
We will not rest until you are held accountable for the crime you helped commit.

Israel destroyed 83% of plant life in Gaza by June this year.
It destroyed 70% of its agricultural land.
It damaged or destroyed 65% of water tanks and 47% of groundwater wells.
