We all know they don't pay attention to us bc we have no representation in Washington. Their doors are open for corporations & lobbyists with big money only. But together, we can pool our financial power.
Together, we are strong.
The largest study on inflation since the pandemic yet proved corporations were price gouging, increasing prices for consumers well beyond cost and into profiteering levels.
In the US today:
- Child labor laws repealed
- Company towns being built for employees
- Books being burned
- Journalists being attacked for not obeying the government
- Thousands of workers laid off & unions forbidden to strike
- Wealthy people being bailed out
This is fascism
Would everyone just get this fact through their thick-ass skulls once and for all?!?
THE DEMOCRAT PARTY IS NOT "THE LEFT!!"
They are a right-wing, pro-capitalism, pro-empire, pro-colonialism, pro-corporate rule, pro-war, anti-labor, anti-poor, garbage party FFS
In 2018, BlackRock, the world's largest asset holder, devised a plan to vastly expand their real estate holdings
In 2020, the biggest spender by far on Congressional lobbying was the Realtors trade group
In 2021 Congress let an eviction moratorium expire
You do the math...
A masked police officer arresting the Chair of the Philosophy department at Emory University for taking part in anti-genocide protests. This feels like a historic image.

I never saw it before, so that's a good argument for keeping it going.
Add this to the huge pile of evidence of out of control criminal cops running rampant in the US
So if Israelis can just simply take land that belonged to generations of Palestinians, does that mean we working Americans can just simply take land that belongs to rich motherfuckers here in the US?
Former Irish President Mary Robinson:
‘President Biden actually bypassed Congress to provide more military aid, and therefore, the United States is increasingly complicit.’
Riddle time!
My son smoked crack, and I got him a sweet high-paying consulting gig with an oil company, but I fired my staff bc they smoked pot.
Who am I?
It was terrible when Trump didn't help Puerto Rico, but Democrats are fine with Biden not helping Hawaii.
Do you get it yet? Performative outrage from tribal association is all they are. They don't GAF about people or equality or justice one bit.
So Joe Biden has billions to give to nazis in Ukraine meanwhile he has “no comment” about relief efforts in Maui
This is Joe Biden’s Hurricane Katrina moment and it’s sick that “progressives” still support him
Israelis block aid trucks at Gaza border
Israeli protesters say they have blocked 32 aid trucks containing food, water and supplies at the Gaza border.
Rich people are not content with living super comfortable, cushy, and extremely extravagant lives. They, as a ruling class, want EVERY DAMN CENT so none of us has anything. They want it all and won't stop until they have it. Or until we stop them.
Capitalism is a Ponzi scheme. It can only survive if it constantly grows. If it can't grow externally by breaking into new markets (via war usually), then it must grow internally by raising prices at home. With capitalism, we either have forever wars or inflation & low wages.
F*ck this sh!tlib garbage. Why don't you demand universal healthcare, housing for all, a fair wage, free higher education, money out of politics, Green New Deal - literally anything but this? What a total waste of potential energy. SMDH
Yeah, I'm over
@AOC
.
She hasn't done or said anything of substance worth praising since she was elected. She's done the opposite. I'll happily rescind this if I see or hear her truly take a stand against the corrupt capitalist establishment.
But for now, she is canceled.
This is insane. The CIA is literally creating a whole false reality in the minds of the most politically powerful people in the US. The leaders here are fed nothing but lies and told it is high-level intelligence. We are ruled by absolute idiots, psychopathic idiots.

* While doing nothing to address the problems we face today: no healthcare, homelessness, racist "justice" system, extreme inequality, corporate & govt corruption, corporate capture of govt & media, out of control CIA & military, and woefully inadequate wages & social programs.
Looking at Tinder, I am amazed how many people still just spend all their free time going to concerts, raves, snowboarding and doing all sorts of distraction type things with their lives. How do they not care about the state of the nation and world? Are they oblivious?
@EagleWarFighter
Maybe they shouldn't be violently attacking peaceful protesters who are trying to demand an end to violent attacks from authorities such as the police?
Think he'll live? That looks like a nasty boo boo
Can you provide an example of a socialist country the the US hasn’t sanctioned, invaded, bombed, coup’d, smeared, destabilized, interfered in, or otherwise fucked up?
Zionist soldier, while laughing in an Interview with the Israeli channel Hot 8:
"We put Palestinians in cages and killed them. One of us raped a sixteen-year-old girl; some of us ran after them with flame throwers and burned them."

If you had an ounce of self-awareness and did the slightest bit of self-reflection, you would realize how astoundingly ironic this tweet of yours is.
The US is the most powerful nation in human history that controls most of the planet's economy and international dynamics. It is also a failed state that lives in fantasy land
@ProtestaBloc
@storyofryguy
I think Mexico's army and police are more reluctant to shoot to kill their own citizens. If we tried that here, there would be a field of dead - yet concerned - citizens. And the US govt would be proud to explain why it was the right thing to do.
#LawAndOrder
after all...
The problem in a nutshell is...
2-party politics makes people batshit insane & radicalizes them, employing that age old practice of divide & conquer.
In this case, the two parties have merged together while the party loyalists are more divided than ever
Vote policy, not party!
I hope that more of you are starting to see that the war in Ukraine is a deliberate geostrategic operation by the US and NATO involving constant intense propaganda to try to paint Russia as "bad" and the West as "good." 1/2
I have been hearing some leftists saying that UBI is bad bc it will make the rich richer. Well, first, UBI would also help millions of people on the brink of catastrophe. It would also empower the working class by making them less desperate to take any job at any wage. 1/2
Capitalism will require more and more authoritarian measures implemented as it continually increases inequality and human misery for the working class. Both ruling parties support capitalism 100%. Both are threats. 1/2
@0liviajulianna
Demanding that a party “earns” your vote gets it all backwards. You vote to move your party, and the nation, in a certain direction. Our votes are not rewards, but pushes and shoves.
Not only did I

after this, I also take every opportunity I can to attack this corrupt, lying, corporate party that pretends to care about the people, workers, women, immigrants, and POC. They don't give a shit about any of us. They only care about their own power and $$$

ever again, bc even when they control both houses of Congress and the White House, they still do nothing for YOU and only serve their wealthy donors, lobbyists, and revolving door industries.
Ukraine is not a “both sides” situation.
The US and NATO pushed and pushed hyper aggressively until Russia had no choice.
If you don’t get that, then you don’t understand what is happening there.
Pro tip: Whenever you see someone saying, “We could be spending that money on X instead of sending it to Ukraine” it probably originated from and was amplified by the Russians.
Be smarter out there. I know for some of you it’s hard.
The US govt (a subsidiary of the Pentagon & weapons manufacturers):
- keep min. wage so low
- make college so expensive
- refuse to give us healthcare
- make abortions harder to get
- raise prices (inflation)
All to pressure more young people to join the military for their wars
@washingtonpost
* Biden Stimulus Barely Trickles Far Less than Promised on Millions of Desperate People, Hardly Helping to Impact their Suffering at All
I'm not one to make shit up, but it sure seems like the police are actually TRYING to get the US to get into a race war. All signs point to their trying to instigate, escalate, and infuriate the US people on both sides to start shooting each other in the streets. Do you disagree?
Over the past 70 years, the US has committed probably 100 to 500 times as many international war crimes as Russia/USSR. And today so many Americans support sanctions which punish the average people. How would you like it if WE were punished for the US's war crimes?
Do today's capitalist understand that FDR rescued capitalism from imminent demise?
If the New Deal didn't release pressure from the population's balloon of rage, there would have been a revolution
BlackRock, Vanguard, State Street, JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs think it won't happen
🇵🇸🇮🇷🇺🇸| US Secretary of State Blinken: "We'll be prepared" if Iran escalates attacks.
By "escalate", what he really means is Iran helping the defenseless people of Gaza!

I have zero faith in the US electoral process. We are a sham democracy. But this is the best candidate running in 2024 hands down. For what that’s worth. Jill Stein has the best values and understands the situation we are in better than most. Best of luck to her!
The political system is broken. Over 60% of us now say the two-party establishment has failed us and we need a party that serves the people.
I’m running for President to offer a better choice for the people. Join us!
Capitalism isn't "working hard" "being creative" "hustling" "overcoming" etc. Capitalism is a system of exploitation, theft, control, oppression, & murder. Period. There is no "partake" of it. There is no "improve" it. There is no "regulate" it. If you think so, you don't get it
A Democrat emailed me today. Here is my reply:
Fuck the Democrats. Fuck both parties. Fuck the money-obsessed puppet politicians of the Wall St. elite oligarchs. You don't care about us until it's time for us to vote. Fuck all the way off.
Take me off your fucking mailing list.
For those who are wondering why "protesters" in the US end up looting, it might be because American citizens have been & are still being bled dry by capitalists. Poverty is soaring & social safety net programs are being dismantled.
Extreme Anger + Extreme Poverty = Looting
Had a conversation with a Syrian chef and Lyft driver tonight. He confirmed that the US has been lying about Assad and stealing their oil illegally. Before the US decided to try to take over Syria, life for Syrians was very good. Free healthcare and education and no homelessness
Fuck Bill Kristol. Protest at the houses of the rich and powerful. Storm their places of worship. Make their lives as uncomfortable as they have made our lives.
@computer_atulya
Let me clarify: Americans (like most citizens of capitalist societies) have been trained to value convenience over humanity. The natural state of a person in a community is to value humanity over material gains. Capitalism beats this out of us from the moment we are born.
The surge in hospitalizations is not the fault of the unvaccinated. It is the fault of a government that implemented a vaccine-only solution to maximize corporate profits. It is the fault of ruthless corporations that deceptively market untested products for profit
