Be sure to read the rule before you leave @lemmygrad.ml

hey have you listed to this

Late Stage Capitalism @lemmygrad.ml

Diane Feinstien is worth 87 million dollars. What ever happened to that Insider trading investigation?

Be sure to read the rule before you leave @lemmygrad.ml

rule Abbie and continue to

  • Look at the effects of cutting off oil from Germany after the US blew up Nordstrom 2. Material conditions, everything impacted due to huge energy cost increase as they import LNG from the US

    Things have a tendency to feed back, impacts cause further impacts and I think Marx would say this is a dialectical materialism function of history.

    What's great about it is we have a chance to win. Organize Unionize Strike and Fight.

  • I agree. the de-dollarization process is going to take years though is what Ben Norton is speculating. At any rate the implosion is happening realtime around us every day. Capitalism has an expiration date that we seem to be rapidly approaching and the violence will most certainly intensify...

  • Communism @lemmygrad.ml

    so Trump is saying ban communists socialist from entering and we need to do something about the ones already here

    Communism @lemmygrad.ml

    the rightwing attack on social security and libraries

  • Western propaganda is really well funded. Unfortunately lots of well meant left leaning folks are caught up in it and are never exposed to facts that don't fit the narrative.

    During the first gulf war where the US blew the shit out of retreating Iraqi forces, only 1 in 20 Americans opposed the war. I was against it and protested, did civil disobedience etc, and got a ton of hate from my fellow 'patriotic' Americans.

    Same during gulf war two. I knew there were no WMDs because of independent media interviews with Hanz von Sponich (sp?) who was a weapons inspector there etc. Everyone called me a traitor and Saddam apologist for opposing that war. 20 years later are there any mea culpas? Anybody apologize to the antiwar left?

    It's the same thing with Ukraine. And China. And the war machine rolls on...

  • I live in a place where the mosquitoes are so bad I can't go outside at night. Have a mosquito net over the bed. Hate them so much that yeah I would snap fingers and delete that genetic code from the pool in an instant..

  • At least nobody is actually deleting your comments. When I posted the original thing to lemmy.world about how the word 'tankie' is used to stop all discourse, and then responded with many points, they deleted everything. As in poof no dialogue at all. At least we are all reading your words and responding. The downvotes don't mean anything other than there is disagreement with the conclusions of the argument is all. I say keep talking! I will upvote all your stuff. It is all about dialogue.

  • There's a really great graphic novel called 'Berlin' that goes into how the Nazis came to be, how the communists were the ones that organized worker strikes to stop railroads to death camps etc. I don't think our meme warfare on the net will change anything but if your looking for a fun read checkit. Is there anything you would recommend for me? I probably I'll read it. I'm a reader.

  • Fantastic diatribe. Instructive and not condescending at all. If those people who insist on calling us 'tankies' for understanding this and calling for actual global socialist revolution would take the time to understand why we are where we are politically maybe they would join us.

  • Communism @lemmygrad.ml

    posting 'tankie' is the new 'woke' slur on a lemmy instance..

    Communism @lemmygrad.ml

    Richard Wolff interview with Brian Becker on today's socialist program was pretty hot
