@freep.com is doing Philip Kafka propaganda again so please note: Philip Kafka is in the Epstein files *a bunch*. His dad and Jeffrey were buds. He emailed Jeffrey directly, once to request “Russian or Brazilian women in Detroit”… 1/2

Silly to call every crazy thing that happens staged…it’s all staged…by material conditions & class dynamics. No secret conspiracy just rising political violence. Of course he’ll use it to do terrible things, doesn’t mean he planned it, please don’t give these people that kind of credit.

Democrats in Congress gave Donald Trump a standing ovation when he talked about attacking Iran. This is a bipartisan war.

Businesses and institutions are still declaring for the strike this Friday, even though there’s been a partial and limited victory against Trump’s ICE terror with the demotion of Bovino and the withdrawal of some ICE thugs from MN. No time to let up, let’s keep going!!! ❤️⛓️‍💥💪

It’s looking like the CBP agent disarmed Alex Pretti, the agent didn’t know how to properly handle the weapon and it discharged, and the other officers emptied their guns into Alex after hearing the first shot.

Politicians respond to money and material conditions not their constituents’ voices. Sometimes, call-in campaigns have success, but only when tied in with offline, boots on the ground social movement activity… 1/2

Let’s be crystal clear: the MN National Guard is currently being used against Minnesotans to help MPD, Sheriffs, and Minnesota State Patrol protect Bovino and his ICE thugs. Jacob Frey and Tim Walz are helping the federal government murder Minnesotans in the streets and get away with it.

At this point, anyone calling for restraint, for calm, for “peace” while we’re being gunned down in the street is doing the state’s work for them and perpetuating the “comply or die” politics of fascism.

Posting that the MN guard will counter ICE is dangerous misinformation: on the one hand, this places protesters in danger of violence from people they falsely believe are there to help; on the other hand and maybe more significantly this myth is pacifying and diffusing dissent when it’s needed most.

Countries w successful general strikes have v high levels of union membership and unions form the organizational & class basis of the strike. We need to unionize new shops and industries and agitate toward more militant class struggle politics within the unions. This is how we get to general strike.

Surprised I have not seen any stories yet. Pretty sure the Q Line is going to be out of service for a little while, I don’t see how the damage caused by the parade floats today could be fixed overnight.

Float stopped, a tow truck had to come. Another float tried to go around it and took out a pole w Q line overhead power at Parsons and Woodward.

Everyone is short on time this time of year. As you drive around this holiday season please remember that ppl on bicycles are humans. We’re not trying to be in your way or slow you down. Chill and give us a little extra room when you see us. It’s scary out here. Show us some love. Happy holidays.

The horrors of socialism are all too real: • late night meetings • Friday morning reading groups • sectarian infighting • 1,000 daily signal notifications • correctly interrogating systems of power to reveal class dynamics under capitalism as root cause of suffering in modern society • folding zines

Revolution as a process is inevitable. Revolutionary socialist politics simply account for that. We can no more summon a revolution than we can summon a windstorm. But good politics can help us build shelter or sails, as needed.

NYT puzzles are the circus they use to keep you eating their moldy bread. I know a lot of you who are smarter than to keep reading it. Give up Wordle. There’s other apps or go buy a puzzle book. You’ll be fine and you’ll stop being dosed w transphobia, nationalism, militarism, and NGO corporatism.

You’re driving a car approaching a turn and a bicyclist is in front of you: Please just wait and make the turn behind them. Don’t speed up to pass, don’t tailgate or crowd. You’ll survive if you arrive 20 seconds late; I may not if you put your schedule before my life.

No Kings 1/2 Everyone should show up for things tomorrow. Massiveness is what’s most important politically. The more people who do the safer it will be. Experienced folks are happy to help newer folks land somewhere within their risk tolerance.

PSA: You never need to register or RSVP for a protest. If you really want to get all the emails and be plugged into that stuff, good for you go for it. But it hurts nothing and nobody to simply show up. Do not let these orgs pressure you into registering.

One of the first deaths reported in Tehran was a child. Israel is killing children in a whole new country now. The children of Gaza and the West Bank in Palestine are not safe. The children of Lebanon are not safe. Now children in Iran are in the genocidal state’s crosshairs.

Hell ppl can criticize PSL for non masking, settler chauvinism, authoritarian vanguardism, hijacking protests–whatever you want–but is it really that hard to say “no congress should not be hauling socialist parties and Latinx political orgs in front of counterterrorism subcommittees”?! ffs

People who talk about “purity tests” are willing to sacrifice Trans people and Palestinians and immigrants. Rejecting principle and labeling it as “purity” is not how you beat fascism, that’s how you join it.

If you are driving trying to pass a bicyclist and you don't have 3-4 feet of space to give them, you don't have enough room to pass. Please slow down, don't tailgate, and wait until there is room.
