"We must dare to invent the future"- Thomas Sankara

Lover of nature and the people's revolution 🌿🚩certified Ecological Communist
History may be full of death, exploitation and suffering, but if you look a little deeper you will discover near infinite instances of comradery, love and community. The toiling masses have a long tradition of battles won in the face of defeat and that tradition will continue on :)
Someone on Twitter asked how to keep from falling into doomerism; I have the answer:

Study history. Study revolutions. Organize your community. Engage in mutual aid. Understand that things will get worse before better. We must have REVOLUTIONARY OPTIMISM and know that it’s better on the other side.

Every single USA president is a war criminal who should be brought up on charges at The Hague.

Some of y’all are going out of your way to defend Barack Obama, and you look incredibly foolish. Bourgeois infighting is good for us. Let them distract themselves with nonsense.

The newly established “Make America Beautiful Again Commission,” created under a Trump executive order, may sound harmless, or even beneficial, but beneath the surface, it represents a major threat to public lands.

The city (or likely a private trimming company hired by those who own the lot) just destroyed two common milkweed patches by my home, right before I was going to collect some flowers. To say I'm angry and saddened is a vast understatement.

"Someone being rich doesn't make you poor."

Actually it does, and it is pretty obvious why.

That money doesn't come from nowhere, in fact it all comes from the poor people.

Whether in ripoff prices or abysmal wages, it is all your money stacked up in their accounts.

“Kamala wouldn’t have…”

Yes, she would have. The Dems are not against this. Bombing Iran and supporting Zionist imperialism is in the interest of the western bourgeoisie.

We have to understand that to fight against it.

The only reason to have a USA flag at a protest is if you’re planning to burn it.

When your enemy only speaks one language, money, thats the language you need to learn and weaponize against them.

Your enemies figured that out. That's why they love your street protests that erupt and disappear. They love that you refuse to learn about cash flow; they profit on it.

Albert Einstein died on this day, April 18, 1955.

It is incredible to hear Albert Einstein explain his famous formula, E=mc².

No amount of "clean" energy will make the imperial mode of living sustainable or acceptable. Without dismantling the underlying extractive system, renewables will at best be nothing more than incomplete tools, at worst a greenwash on brutality.

Oh no bro
Wyoming H5N1 bird flu case uploads to GISAID

—PB2 E627K mutation detected

Partial sequence from a Wyoming patient confirms H5N1 D1.1 genotype with PB2 E627K

It’s a key adaptation for mammalian replication.

This is possible. But the fossil fuel industry will never allow this to happen.
That's American capitalism for you.

Books I'm starting 2025 off with! I think it's very important to engage with contemporary eco-socialist works as well as the classic texts!

That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns.

Well, the planet is burning.
Don't let them look away.

A female Pileated Woodpecker with her head feathers on end. There was a Red-tailed Hawk flying around, and while it would be rare for one to go after a Pileated Woodpecker, I can understand the concern of a raptor being nearby.
