America Really Shouldn't Exist
@a-r-s-e.bsky.social
Hating America doesn't mean loving Xi or Putin. But my country (England) is not a vassal state of either Russia or China, so I direct my hatred toward the appropriate power structure: that of US Imperialism, which is FULLY responsible for the Gaza Genocide
Pinned
In 1940 the global Hegemon, Britain, was defeated by one of its main rivals, Germany, so had to go begging to its other rival, the USA

The USA took over as hegemon & has been the major factor in the defeat of the global working class ever since: through invasions, assassinations & right-wing terror
If the choice was between a socialist party coming to power promising to nationalise the commanding heights of the economy, or ANYTHING other than that, the Lib Dems would choose the latter
There is zero chance of Lib Dems allying with Tories and RefUK. Absolute rubbish, they are diametrically opposed on everything. Labour are much nearer but wouldn't just because of the optics and to maintain the pretense we have some sort of choice in UK elections.

It's 2029. There's a hung parliament with 2 rival blocs forming

On the right is a Tory-Reform-LibDem bloc, on the Left a Corbynite-Green-SNP bloc

Labour, still led by Starmer, hold the balance of power

Do I even need to ask which way they'd go?

This can't happen. Destroy them

If there is a known homicidal maniac on the loose, and someone gives them a gun, who is to blame for the deaths of the people they kill?

This is why I say the US is fully responsible for the Genocide in Gaza

Our president thinks immigrants seeking asylum are coming from actual asylums so you can’t rule out he’s saving coal because of the minors.

The time to recognise Palestine was in 1948. If the UN Charter had meant anything then the US, Soviet Union, France & Britain would have sent troops to destroy the Zionist terror gangs who later merged to form the IDF

Recognising Palestine now is sick joke

There is no solution whilst the IDF exist
This feels a lot like ‘taking the knee’. Purely gestural theatre designed to diffuse and placate so the murderous status quo can roll on unaffected.

The undercurrent of white genocide that tinges this article aside - I take umbrage with the expansion of free nursery hours.

That's still our taxes going to private companies to look after our children and we know profit comes first. This sector should be entirely nationalised.
Poll reveals the one major reason Britons aren’t having children
Exclusive: Some four in 10 adults are putting off having children, or deciding against it altogether, as birth rates in the UK hit record lows

Unless recognising Palestine means sending them military assistance to defeat the IDF, it's a worthless gesture

What are the borders of the Palestinian State going to be? Who is its government?

And why have we waited until most people in Gaza have irreversible health problems or are allready dead?
I welcome the government’s move to recognise Palestinian statehood, but it must be unconditional and immediate.

In Gaza, Israel is killing one person every 12 minutes, and famine is continuing to mount.

We need sanctions, an arms embargo, and recognition now.

I'm gearing up to making a new social media account with a new fake name to make serious political points, now that I'm becoming more of a real activist again

I'm even gonna try doing little videos, but I guess you won't know it's me (or care)

This will free this account up to be more of an arse

Good rhyme but the scansion is terrible

No rhythm to it at all, so can't be chanted

How about:

"Deutschland's not denazified, still a fan of Genocide"?

Thanks to diplomatic liberal discourse, with respect to genocidal polity, they're on the road to possibly considering recognition of the reality that knives do in fact exist. And hopefully soon enough they may even admit the knife may or may not be there, 9 inches deep, in the back of Palestine.

"We're gonna recognise the Bantustans as independent states. That'll teach De Klerk"
Recognising Palestine as a State now is like giving an enslaved person a certificate saying they're free whilst they're not only still in chains but have also just been beaten to within an inch of their life

USA has been fucked AT LEAST since your great grandparents time (it was even more fucked before that)

Kamala Harris would not have unfucked it given her loyalty to capitalism & the slaveholders' constitution

Unfucking the US requires a workers' party coming to power & creating a socialist republic

Fake words I have heard recently by a generation raised to never read:

Disingenuine (disingenuous)

Realisationable (realisable)

Geniusness (ingenuity)

The latter is just 1 example of a widespread tendency I've noticed of making up new noun forms of adjectives when more elegant ones already exist

If you care enough to become a union rep, why don't you care enough to learn some basic Marxist theory?

If you care enough to read Marxist theory, why don't you care enough to become a union rep?

Believe me, there are not enough people who are both

Why do you think the unions are mostly so shit?

The solution to the famine in Gaza is the military defeat of the IDF.

Who can defeat them militarily?

NATO. The UN Security Council. The combined forces of the EU.

You know, all those guys who say they love peace & democracy & claim to have set themselves up to never let a genocide happen again?

I never learned to drive till I moved to Bristol

Whenever I visit family in the South East or London I am astounded by how many dickheads are on the roads

Fucking beeping at me. Swerving into parking spaces I'm about to go in. Never stopping for pedestrians, even with kids

What's the big hurry?

There is strong evidence that ACAB
There is no strong evidence that police in schools improves safety. There is evidence it harms over-policed students.

Schools should be safe, supportive environments for all young people – not places of surveillance.

This👇🏻 Just like Great British Energy, Great British Rail is a con. You can’t attempt nationalisation (or even re-nationalisation) when Business Growth Partnerships are the foundations of your policies
This is a key point, rarely explained properly by Labour or the BBC:

RAIL SERVICE companies are being (re)nationalised
i.e. the operators (ticketing, timetabling, etc)

ROLLING STOCK companies are NOT
i.e. the owners of the actual trains

Guess where most of the money is?
Fully #Renationalise rail
C2C is the latest passenger train service taken into public ownership.

Nationalisation of all could save £150m.

Lucrative freight & rolling stock companies (ROSCOS) not nationalised. Govt will rent carriages, not own them.

Roscos paid £3.6bn in dividends since 2014/15.
