The nice people in Amazon’s HR department are gonna SO MAD to hear about this. Trying to freeze your striking workers is NOT what diversity, equity, and inclusion are about! I’m sure this must be some mistake.

Identity politics *with* anti-capitalist analysis is also a tool of the oppressor, it's just a bit more sophisticated

Everyone is looking for my so-called pivot. It's not in the policy. It's not in the labels. It's not in the strategy. But I found it. There is something different. I don't hate the other side anymore. And that might be the biggest difference of all. And the biggest sin for some.

"Robert Pfaller und Slavoj Žižek call this phenomenon interpassivity. We consume the actions of another to allow ourselves to remain passive. By watching others eat, xxx, or kill we satisfy our own urges." open.substack.com/pub/promethean…

Depressed Ginger But what "culture"? There is only one true American culture: revolutionary republicanism. The rest is Toryism and should be driven into the Atlantic by bayonets if need be, as it was by the forefathers of the nation. What binds the American nation together? Not blood and soil

President Zelenskyy made a very fair point: Americans still don't understand who Putin really is. They form their opinion of him based on their own values. Putin is a person who lives in the system of primitive societies, a tribe, not a developed civilization. He needs

The function of H-1B has not been to employ the "best and the brightest," but to replace American workers with lower-paid workers from abroad who often live as indentured servants. The cheaper it is to hire guest workers, the more money billionaire owners of large corporations.

Yes it is and yes they do.

The real administration of society is not the governmental bureaucracy, but the administration of so-called "private enterprise": the integrated network of corporate monopolies that dominate all major industries, that own all governments, that provide all revenues for all

🚨 Russia is sending 18 year old kids to their death in Kursk With empty coffers, monetary incentives are no longer sufficient to drag volunteers to sign a contract with the MoD. Yesterday, they sent 50 boys, 49 died and 1 is heavily wounded

My point about centrism (see below) is vindicated once again. To say - as Vivek Chibber does, entirely correctly - that Marxists should challenge both wokeness and the radical right, is interpreted by bugeyed leftists as the same as centrist triangulation. The end of the end

Vance’s Munich speech was a blistering defence of freedom of speech & majority rule, and against European censorship & technocratic obstruction of democratic outcomes elites disagree with. Shame his own administration is restricting speech as much as any EU gov’ts:

its kinda fucked up theres no exiled intellectual cities anymore. its just expensive everywhere now. theres nowhere to be a weird little fuckup with your weird little fuckup friends and thats why literature is dead

The vibe shift was absolute. The libs had completely failed. The battle lines of the cathedral had collapsed. MAGA was cool, even in the left bubble. Trump's insane actions create another shift. This will not mean a return to woke. Something new. Interesting times.

This hatred that plebs feel when they see real art, their childish insistence on tasteless, unrefined concepts of "beauty"; it shows that they understand. They understand that art is not made *for them*, not for normie consumption (like Marvel movies). Plebs can’t stand this.

If the left's message to Americans is "we cannot bring back manufacturing jobs and also we don't want to" then the working class will reject the left. Asking "what's really going to happen" assumes that the working class can not be organized and become a player shaping the

Tariffs are good and necessary to protect workers and grow domestic manufacturing. But not if you lazily put the same tariff on every kind of good.

Freedom Bro I think service sector workers and factory workers are both workers, and it's possible to organize in either sector. The best way to make workers seem cool is to help organize the working class to protect itself from the worst conditions, help create civil society organizations
