“Americans are, of course, the most thoroughly and passively indoctrinated people on earth...and they certainly know little or nothing of the complexities and contradictions comprised within words like ‘socialism’ and ‘capitalism.’”– Stellan Skarsgård

As the Department of Education is further dismantled, the US political elite vote to condemn what they and the overwhelming majority of the US public cannot define: socialism.

#OtD 21 Nov 1922 Mexican anarchist communist of Zapotec descent, Ricardo Flores Magón, died after months of illness and neglect in Leavenworth Prison, Kansas. He was one of the major thinkers and activists of the Mexican revolution stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/9420...

"..the nature of the online leftism defined by armchair proselytizing, goofy sectarianism, and influencers who may or may not know what they’re actually talking about...

Our new ideas about addressing the dwindling resources and structuring the society we want have to be protected at all costs."

"Race, class, economic, gender, and disability hierarchies prioritize who is most deserving of attention. [..] ... already a maze of discriminatory obstacles. One way to determine what should be prioritized is to identify the everyday impact of the actions we’re being instructed to take."

Another way out: Finding clarity for resistance Facing a wave of misinformation and the manipulation of algorithms, resistance starts with choosing how we listen, not just how we speak

Doing free labor for tech companies and feeding their algorithms and training their AI is sabotaging us. Content creator radicalism and online left influencers oftentimes thoughtlessly feed people into this culture of self-defeat. We need to be better than the noise. prismreports.org/2025/11/20/a...

We're challenged to find new ways to learn, listen, and communicate. The channels many of us have become accustomed to, and the ways we use social media, must change. The manipulative noisiness of it all is disrupting our capacity to intervene as we need to. prismreports.org/2025/11/20/a...

🍵😶 ... part of what can be gained despite the costs is the capacity to uphold & assert the principles we embody which would be otherwise lost in silence,,

"If we remain susceptible to manipulation via forums that are explicitly being used to manipulate, surveil, and exploit, then what’s the point? Keeping tabs on ourselves for the authorities and doing free work for our adversaries is not serving people."

Another way out: Finding clarity for resistance Facing a wave of misinformation and the manipulation of algorithms, resistance starts with choosing how we listen, not just how we speak

Social media and many of the places where we get perspectives are a mess with manipulation, conspiracy, and misinformation. Radicals hoping to fight oppression have to be mindful of where we listen and why. I wrote about this and more for @prismreports.org. prismreports.org/2025/11/20/a...

Another way out: Finding clarity for resistance Facing a wave of misinformation and the manipulation of algorithms, resistance starts with choosing how we listen, not just how we speak

For people who have to wade through the noise of mass media, it seems as there’s someone telling us what to do or think, writes columnist @williamcson.bsky.social in his latest “Another way out.” Facing a wave of misinformation & manipulated algorithms, resistance starts with choosing how we listen.

North Carolina immigration raids expected to escalate As the impacts of the raids quickly ripple outward from Charlotte, North Carolinians are mobilizing to stem enforcement operations in their communities

NEW: As immigration enforcement continues across North Carolina, communities are mobilizing--inside and outside formal organizing networks--to protect their neighbors:

Progressive philanthropy needs to commit to funding journalism Marginalized voices are facing new pressures amid industry cutbacks and increasing attacks from the Trump administration

What we are witnessing today can & should be described as media capitulating to Trump’s fascist agenda or at the very least, newsroom leaders finding an opportunity to stop pretending that they ever cared about correcting the systemic wrongs of their industry.

🧵 The elimination of Teen Vogue’s entire political desk and layoffs of their Black, brown, trans, and queer workers is part of a devastating mainstream media landscape.

The 1996 Telecommunications Act ushered in an era of deregulation and paved the way for mergers and acquisitions. Because of those consolidations, the large majority of for-profit news media are now owned by just 🚨six conglomerates🚨

AI-Generated Videos of ICE Raids Are Wildly Viral on Facebook An account is spamming horrific, dehumanizing videos of immigration enforcement because the Facebook algorithm is rewarding them for it.

Some people thought that genocide should be a red line for a party's politics. If both parties think that it isn't, why is anything else not on the table? Why wouldn't they collude on anything else horrible?

How many times does the same thing have to happen before reality sinks in?

Anyone waiting on the Democrats to be an opposition shouldn't expect much. Don't be surprised if or when the Democrats (starting with the high-level establishment) start joining the Republicans outright and pushing this society toward a more openly one-party state.

No one has to do the Democrats' job for them and tell them about the tools at their disposal. Do you think the Republicans are the only ones who know how the system works? 'If they wanted to, they would' applies to US party politics too. They've been like this and only gotten worse for years.
