What is it that unites Rod Dreher and the Jacobin crowd? What do they have in common that they’d both see “wokeness” as the cause and root of white supremacy? Hmmm.

Jacobin magazine o 2d • © ••• When suffering is treated as authority, movements fracture, and reactionaries can rush in to fill the vacuum. Reengaging Karl Marx's materialist understanding of the working class can restore the structural grounding that standpoint theory has lost: jacobin.com/2025/12/incels-feminism-standpoint- theory-marx AS What Incels Learned From Feminism Confusing marginality with insight leaves movements vulnerable to reactionary mimicry. A renewed engagement with Karl Marx's structural account of exploitation can give feminism a path out of standpoint theory's dead end.

There’s a lot of talk about the Hitler youth types who are turning in their professors and not enough discussion about the ones who are feeling intense despair because they're going to school with the Hitler youth types and immigrants are being kidnapped and trans people are facing genocide &etc

Here are the 28 Dem Senators who voted to advance the first federal ban on trans athletes & a federal definition of sex that would make trans & intersex people non-existent: Angela Alsobrooks (MD), Tammy Baldwin (WI), Richard Blumenthal (CT), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), Chris Coons (DE), ->

‘Tough on crime’ policies are causing Indigenous people to die in custody More First Nations people have died in custody in the past year than in any since 1980. It’s the inevitable result of policies that flout evidence of what would help.

The cruel irony of Republicans voting down ACA subsidies is that it will end up hurting Trump voters the most.

57% of ACA Marketplace enrollees live in congressional districts represented by a Republican.

They're selling out their own voters.

Senate blocks Democrats’ bill to extend expiring Obamacare subsidies The chamber also blocked a Republican bill to give Americans up to $1,500 to spend on health care instead of extending the subsidies.

How could the Dems throwing away all of their leverage when the GOP was on its heals have failed them? How?

Anti-imperialism of the Idiots: How Campism Mirrors the Fascist Geopolitics Historically, social change was fuelled by widespread distress—poverty, class oppression, and economic disparity—leading to peasant revolts. These revolts typically focused on immediate local targets,...

Modern 'campist' anti-imperialism abandons class struggle to support authoritarian regimes opposing the West. This mirrors fascist 'proletarian nation' theory, prioritising geopolitical rivalry over workers' liberation, reducing solidarity to cheerleading for sub-imperialist blocs.

"There are 50 million tons of rubble in Gaza that would take from now until 2050 to clear if we started today."

Anthony Aguilar, whistleblower who worked as a subcontractor as a part of the Gaza Humanitarian Fund aid relief program, speaks about witnessing the Gaza genocide.

If you are an anarchist/libertarian socialist who is not campist or TERF and loves to read and love the mecha genre--- especially Gundam, add Kieva!

U.S. Southern Command @Southcom U.S. military forces are deployed to the #SOUTHCOM area of responsibility in support of #OpSouthernSpear, @DeptofWar -directed operations, and @POTUS ' priorities to disrupt illicit drug trafficking and protect the homeland. Likely AI image of a face-covered soldier with a crusader cross patch on his helmet

Detail of the Southcom tweet's image showing a patch of a Crusader Cross on a helmet

The same cross on the chest of Pete Hegseth, the Trump administration's much-tattooed Defense Secretary and key driver of Southcom's criminal boat murders.

Southcom is lost. It is gone.

Like its counterparts in places like Venezuela, El Salvador, Nicaragua, or Cuba, the Command has completely lost track of the difference between "civilian control of the military" and "foul subservience to a political agenda."

They literally made a movie about this called war games. AI Psychoses gas lights the American military into starting ww3.

Trump just handed China the keys to some of America's most advanced semiconductors, surrendering the AI and military technological edge we've spent billions protecting.

National security cannot be a commodity sold to whoever has the president's ear.

The military's new AI says 'hypothetical' boat strike scenario 'unambiguously illegal’ An AI chatbot unveiled by the Pentagon appears to have described airstrikes against suspected drug smugglers at sea as “illegal.”

Ooops!
“An artificial intelligence chatbot unveiled by Hegseth appears to have described airstrikes against suspected drug smugglers at sea as “unambiguously illegal.” The platform, powered by Google Gemini, has been made available to military personnel as part of the Pentagon’s effort to adopt AI.”

NVIDIA chips are used by the U.S. military for defense research, sensor processing, robotics, and DARPA projects that depend on high performance AI. And now the White House wants to hand that tech to China to fix the soybean crisis their own tariff war created.

Wasn’t this the plot of Terminator 3? Like wtf , the military is the ABSOLUTE one government agency that should have zero AI involvement whatsoever.

The AI is not proprietary to DoD, it is Google which hands military info over to Google. What a brilliant idea? How did the Drunk Grunt ever pass a security backgound check? Most likely, they didn't do one.

NYT Editorial Board Headlines: Are We Losing Our Democracy? While the United States is not yet close to a full-on autocracy, the New York Times editorial board outlines some of the warning signs of democratic erosion already taking place, thanks to the efforts of President Trump. America Pours Billions Into the Military. We Don’t Know Where It All Goes. Wasteful spending and byzantine regulations keep the U.S. military stuck in a failing status quo. This Is the 21st-Century Arms Race. Can America Keep Up? Innovations in A.I., synthetic biology and quantum computing are set to change war. America Must Prepare for the Future of War The nature of war has drastically changed. The editorial board argues that the U.S. must reform its military. Overmatched: Why the U.S. Military Must Reinvent Itself Investing in the old ways of war leaves America at risk.

Is the NYT Editorial Board OK?
It warns that we're sliding into authoritarianism...while also writing an editorial series (Pulitzer bait) urging Trump to work with Silicon Valley to turn the US military into an AI drone force. Palantir and Trump's anti-bureaucracy get positive mentions...

I see no reason to have any security concerns with embedding third-party corporate AI products that work only by connecting to corporate data centers into American military planning

Google is powering a new US military AI platform “The future of American warfare is here, and it’s spelled A-I.”

Google is powering a new US military AI platform

Pete Hegseth: "The future of American warfare is here, and it's spelled AI."

He says the military has launched a new platform that  "puts the world's most powerful frontier AI models, starting with Google Gemini, directly into the hands of every American warrior."

And yours?

For the last time, people, "Epstein" is the name of the criminal. The president is "Epstein's monster."

Any good?

Going to be violent no matter what's done is my point now or even in the near future. Force is not on our side & allows fascists in/out of government to clamp down and kill everyone. It's magical thinking to think there is a Bastille to storm violently armed that pushes out the state. Tankie dreams
