Starmer’s legacy is genocide. He provided military and intelligence support to Israel as it perpetrated the crime of crimes against the Palestinian people. That is how he will be remembered.

Dr Walter Rodney was assassinated on June 13, 1980, by a bomb planted in a walkie talkie. He was 38. His key work, How Europe Underdeveloped Africa, exposed the roots of global inequality and the violence of colonial underdevelopment.

I spoke the other day in Paris about how socialist policy can enable us to overcome social deprivation and ecological crisis, by aligning investment and production with democratically determined objectives.

Cuba helped several African countries in their liberation struggles against brutal colonial occupiers, including against the apartheid regime in South Africa which the US backed and supported. That’s what he means by “radical left-wing terrorism”, just to be clear. x.com/SecRubio/sta...

The imperial core has gained $15 trillion through exorbitant privilege since 1970, getting higher returns on foreign assets than what they pay on foreign debt. This privilege is financed by transfers from the global South, outstripping aid flows many times over.

Well said. The other issue is that these laymen data hounds are not asking the questions a scientist should ask when analyzing data. It’s good practice to ask if the questions answered by the data are really the right questions. The 2008 Stiglitz-Sen-Fitoussi Commission is a good example.

If, across the global economy, we replaced every passenger car and the entire consumer electric grid with renewables tomorrow, we would still emit roughly 75% of our current greenhouse gases. We MUST abandon the myth that consumer choices will save us.

This is a mistake. There is no such thing as an absolutely hopeless situation. The bourgeoisie are behaving like barefaced plunderers who have lost their heads; they are committing folly after folly, thus aggravating the situation and hastening their doom. All that is true.

What's being refered to as the white working class isn't a class. Pollsters define "white working class" as white voters without a four-year college degree. It says nothing about their relation to the means of production.

Real wages decoupled from productivity around 1973 and never reconnected. Productivity roughly doubled since then, real hourly compensation for non-supervisory workers is essentially flat in inflation-adjusted terms. 1/6

on the 24th of Feb, 1966, Kwame Nkrumah, the first president of independent Ghana and co-founder of the Non-Aligned Movement, was deposed in a coup backed by the US and UK. The coup was part of a coordinated effort to destroy socialist and Pan-Africanist movements on the continent.

Domestic pollution fell due to industrial collapse, but Romania’s carbon footprint actually increased from 3.6 tonnes per capita (1999) to 4.1 tonnes (2023). The guardian article only uses Territorial Emissions. There has been no decoupling unfortunately. timotheeparrique.com/a-response-t...

The solution is to reclaim democratic control over the means of production, overcome the capitalist law of value, and organize production around social and ecological goals (in other words, socialism). This must include, and indeed is enabled by, degrowing damaging and unnecessary production.

Rubio is now dispensing with the propaganda, and in the process reveals the reality... that the West is doubling down on imperialism, once again with openly fascist ideology, and they recognize the only real force that has ever held them in check: socialist and anti-colonial movements.

Their claims towards inevitable AGI are akin to claiming they can teach the solar powered calculator collecting dust in a drawer in your house how to love. It's so stupid on the face of it that it can only be the result of a concerted propaganda effort leveled at people too lazy and dumb to learn.

We must work tirelessly toward an international proletarian revolution, and toward the swift dissolution of the organs of state power, to be replaced by organs of workers’ power rooted in collective control, democratic struggle, and our living needs.

Y'all shouldn't forget that barack obama established Venezuela as a "national security threat" in 2015. Practically any act of US imperialism has a lineage spanning multiple presidencies. It's never just a spontaneous decision by the guy supposedly "in power". Always remember that.
