Sexism is on the rise. Donald Trump, a sexual predator, is back in the White House and he pledges to wage a war on women. Abortion rights are under attack and Trump emboldens far right misogynists such as Andrew Tate.

If you get to watch the Christmas classic 'It's a Wonderful Life' over the holidays, and find yourself enjoying it - you may just be a socialist!

The FBI claimed this heartwarming film about a community pulling together at Christmas was 'communist' propaganda.

The Assad regime was a brutal dictatorship - its fall is a celebration. But whose interests will the HTS serve? What opportunities are there for the Syrian people now? What does Assad's fall mean for the wider region and global interest?

We said goodbye to John Rose today.
"There are men who struggle for a day and they are good. There are men who struggle for a year and they are better. There are men who struggle many years, and they are better still. But there are those who struggle all their lives:They are the indispensable ones."

Socialists support the right of workers to use violence against their oppressors. But acts of terrorism are a desperate attempt by a small minority to substitute themselves for mass action.
