How long until the country is forced to shut down because of fuel prices? You can only pass along costs for so long, especially when most of the country has no money.

BREAKING: Israel snatched an American teen from his West Bank home in the middle of the night — just days before his birthday and during his critical national exams. He's now been held for 3 months, with no charges. Netanyahu just came to the US for the *eighth* time since Trump took office.

I’m increasingly of the belief that we’ve never truly left the Great Financial Crisis. Everything we’re dealing with today started there, and every excess and problem stems from the US government’s failure to contain or eradicate its causes.

The sad truth is that if someone stands to make money destroying your life or harming you, many people in the US would jump at the chance to do it. Capitalism is a sickness and the people in power are more than willing to sacrifice you, me, and everyone we know if they financially benefit from it.

Corporate digital distribution has basically destroyed the communal sharing of culture. Instead of being an experience you can pass on to others, it's become individualized and tied to an account. From books to movies and games, it shouldn't be piracy to share things you've experienced and enjoyed.

The CDC may be "zombified," but public health was destroyed years ago to preserve and safeguard capitalism. One of the biggest purveyors of COVID misinformation has been the US government itself, and that's why the virus is everywhere and people are still being disabled by Long COVID in 2026.

Why would someone pay you to do something that they can either do themselves or automate away? 🤨 You can tell this is corporate propaganda because even the basic premise makes no logical sense if you look at it critically for just a few seconds.

Now is the time to promote real socialism. Stop repackaging social democracy and calling it socialism. The public is receptive to an anticapitalist message and we should be engaging in education and building class consciousness, not trying to save capitalism from itself.

ICE cannot do what it’s doing without local law enforcement. They need their manpower and infrastructure. That means if you want to stop ICE you are going to have to confront police collaboration and police power. I’m sorry but progressive hopes of avoiding this conflict are a recipe for failure.

It’s endlessly frustrating that for some on the “left,” socialism is largely an academic exercise, a theoretical battle of ideologies with the right played out in texts, and not about engaging in class struggle that fundamentally transforms the material reality of everyday life for ordinary people.

It’s going to get even worse when Dems are back in power and they’re saber rattling at China again. Liberals understand that multipolarity is usurping US hegemony and they foolishly believe that the way to stop that is with a war against China. They’ll use Taiwan as a pretext, if they have to.
