If your critique of capitalism is stronger than your love for it then I generally regard you a socialist. 🌹

Socialism today!.. socialism tomorrow!.. socialism forever!!

"The Age of Trump shall come and the Age of Trump will pass. We need to have the mentality of a soldier! But we must have the toughness of a street fighter. We do not need the sandy foundation of the summer soldier!" Excerpt of my Farwell speech.

Aurielle Hall and her daughter are sitting on the sidewalk outside a home. They have a few small bags with them. A headline reads: "One Family’s Escape From a Southern California Inferno." Photo by Isadora Kosofsky for The New York Times.

Aurielle Hall knew she had little time to get herself and her daughter out of Altadena. Convincing her aunt who had lived in the area for more than three decades would be a different challenge. “It was just horrible. Everywhere you look, everything’s on fire.” www.nytimes.com/2025/01/10/u...

People trolling @mariashriver.bsky.social for her work bringing attn to LA right now

Saying things like.. where were you when FL, NC, etc needed help?

She's the former first lady of CA & an LA resident FFS

Maybe Dr. Oz owning $550,000 in UnitedHealth stock and seeking to run the agency that oversees UnitedHealth's biggest cash cow (Medicare Advantage) should get more attention

At this point, everyone should read the Powell Memo.

It’s by Lewis Powell Jr., a corporate atty who would go on to be appointed to the Supreme Court by Nixon two months later.

It claimed free enterprise was under cultural attack and laid out a battle plan for corporate interests to fight back.

Here’s the reality:

Science, evidence-based research, law, and our modern state are under broad attack from corporate interests.

This attack has been ongoing for the last 50 years. It’s been remarkably successful, leaving our country less stables, less equal, and more polarized.

It’s a war.

For the rest of us, we need to be more active in uprooting these right-wing operatives from our institutions.

Particularly schools. Beachheads like Hoover exist to force unscientific rightist ideology into the heart of academia. It doesn’t belong on campus.

Imo Libertarianism is the mortal enemy of black liberation.

I called Jane Mcalevey the Cornel West of the Labor movement. May the martyrs and saints of the Labor Movement usher you into the next life!

Minnesota, Listen to Michigan. Vote Uncommitted on Tuesday, March 5th. Send a message. Ceasefire now.

Please help spread and share the message. RSVP to show the numbers. mnuncommitted.com

In my view hbcu's should be at their very core...Anti capitalist.

I understand the importance of hbcu's But the majority of black folks...at least in my area of the country, simply is not connected to them.

How Paul McCartney’s Lost Bass Guitar Was Found Five Decades Later The Höfner violin bass that accompanied the Beatles to fame went missing more than 50 years ago. Two journalists and a Höfner expert were determined to find it.

No one seemed to know what had happened to the Höfner violin bass that accompanied Paul McCartney and the Beatles to worldwide fame when it went missing more than 50 years ago.

It turned out to be passing time in the loft of a family home in England.

If I ever achieve elected office, I will be @demsocialists.bsky.social equivalent of LBJ. I would say what I have to say, do what I have to do in order to advance our Socialist agenda. I will not be afraid to use power!!

The doctor told me I need more iron and protein

Sanders needs to call for a ceasefire. He is giving @AIPAC
an opening to clip out his interviews out of context to drive a wedge in the progressive moment. We don't need to be reactive. We have to be smarter.
