If you are one of the people with more advanced class consciousness in the United States and suddenly the masses are supporting social democrats- you know what you need to do? Push people further than that, agitate. Not mindlessly glaze those people. Come on. Grab the lib by the shoulders and push!

The combination of unique politics, climate change, and bad luck have brought a true drought emergency to Tehran.

"Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian warned that Tehran’s residents would have to ration waterβ€”and eventually evacuate the capitalβ€”if there was no rain by late November."

Reforms are granted by the ruling class in order to pacify revolutionary action. They can be revoked any moment since class society itself remains intact.

Revolution?" by Rosa Luxemburg)

Funnily enough, this is the contradiction of democratic socialism. Within our current juridical framework you actually can’t abolish private property. You don’t have to worry about it cause it’s impossible without revolution

What Southeast Asian history tells us about a multipolar order | Aeon Essays As Pax Americana ends, a multipolar order is emerging. The history of Southeast Asia holds lessons for what’s to come

Southeast Asian history shows us that there are other pathways to international order and that, contrary to Western modes of thinking, a hegemonic power is not required for stability

No one died in blockaded socialist Cuba during Hurricane Melissa, one of the worst storms ever to hit the country.

At least two people died in the world's richest city, in the world's richest country, during a Nor'easter.

New research on 42 countries around the world shows that in most cases people generally do not believe the system they live under is fair. With one exception: China.

I wrote a summary of this study and its methodology on Substack, which I'm posting in the reply.

38 years ago, Thomas Sankara, the revolutionary leader of Burkina Faso, was assassinated in a French-backed coup. He aspired to a fair and just society, and an economy built on self-sufficiency, ecological regeneration, and freedom from Western domination.

I need ppl to understand that no matter how well meaning someone running as a democrat is, when they are absorbed and become somewhat dependent on the party, they will make concessions and use language they provide etc

It’s like how capitalists, no matter how well meaning, need to increase profit
