Searching for clarity in an insane world / humanity first
All of the western nations have been caught in a lie, the lie of their pretended humanism; this means that their history has no moral justification, and that the west has no moral authority.

The duopoly are both in the service of, and funded by, the capitalist ruling class.

US infrastructure is decades behind because we've spent those decades destroying other nations instead of investing in our own.

We have these two evils to fight: capitalism and racism. We must destroy them both.

In 2015, the Air Force paid NASCAR $1.5 million in part for veterans to shake hands with racing legend Richard Petty. Your tax dollars. At work.

Capitalism 101: Capitalism is mass exploitation

Presenting a “left” face in order to trap social opposition, prop up the capitalist order and stifle working class progress in the US has been a long standing strategy of the Democratic party. Mamdani is just the latest iteration of that strategy like AOC and Obama before him.

The origins of Ocasio-Cortez and her attacks against the socialist left must be understood in the political and historical context of the historical role of the Democratic Party.

Despite the intentional misdirection, the war against woke is not just a war against critical race theory, but it is a war against Black history and the entire infrastructure built out of the civil rights movement. It is a war against our multiracial democracy.

Capitalism enables the billionaire ruling class and capitalist oligarchy, not the GOP, not Trump.

Capitalism and racism are mutually reinforcing, with racial exploitation and the extraction of economic and social value from marginalized racial groups being fundamental to the accumulation of capital.

☕Imagine every presidential candidate before and after Biden in that room 'kissing the ring' and repeating those same words:

"Nothing would fundamentally change,” then candidate and former VP Joe Biden promised a room of wealthy donors during his 2020 run for President. That is who they all serve.

Stop the silly narrative about anti oligarchy. They exist bc of the capitalist system. You can't get rid of one without getting rid of the other. They dictate policy in the duopoly. Congress is a house for sale to the highest bidder, it's not for the people.

Stop with the anti oligarchy crap. Give folks something to vote for. How about some high speed rail, how about some free healthcare and a trillion dollar infrastructure rebuild instead of a trillion dollar army that plunder.

Universal healthcare, not the Heritage Foundation corporate run Obamacare. The ACA is corporate capitalist in nature. It's another grift by politicians in service of capitalism.

By centering Black struggles against racial slavery, colonization, and capitalism, it offers a critique of orthodox Marxism, providing an alternative historical and structural understanding of the capitalist world-system.

📌 Reminder: Starbucks became a focus of global boycotts after it sued its workers' union, Starbucks Workers United, over a pro-Palestinian social media post in October 2023. Beyond the present union strike Starbucks still faces global protests bc of its pro Zionist stance.
