My entire adult life has been defined by the fallout of the financial crash and the nearly 20 years of austerity that followed, and you're telling me THOSE were the salad days???

Democrat campaign ads in 2026: Listen, I'm a registered Republican. I love America. I hate transgender. But I'm running as a Democrat this election to teach Trump and his cronies: They Not Like Us.

The more DSA grows from liberals joining, the more important political education and member standards are going to become. Anyone is welcome to join and learn, but talented organizers will not stay if half of DSA are liberals who won’t commit to basic socialist principles.

The problem has always been deeper than Nithya. The entire DSA caucus in LA has endorsed Bass, INCLUDING NITHYA.
DSA-LA has no power over these candidates and are taking massive risks with the DSA project that will define the organization by the whims of a consistent op who brags to our enemies about being independent from us and not agreeing with our program.

Under Trump the Education Department's Office of Civil Rights is ignoring reports of sexual assault on campus so they can instead focus on transgender athletes. They are "protecting women and girls" while actively abiding reports of rape.
Trump’s Education Department has not made public all its civil rights investigations at schools and colleges.
So @propublica sued and obtained all the complaints and investigations. And now we are publishing them so you can search the cases too.

Asked about the Iran War's effect on defense stocks, Lockheed Martin CEO says: "Investors need to know and understand that this demand is not fleeting — it's permanent."

The pre-dawn raid on Ilhan Omar's home in D.C., the attempt to extradite Fergie Chambers from Spain on politically motivated charges related to Palestine solidarity, the DOJ investigation of Shawn Fain following his internal UAW advocacy for a ceasefire in the genocide, and the targeting of CODEPINK, BT News, and other organizations supported by Roy Singham represent an escalating pattern of political repression against those who show solidarity with Palestine and oppose U.S. militarism and fascism.
It is critical that we speak forcefully against this abuse of civil liberties and the weaponization of the Department of Justice, congressional authority, and federal agencies against dissent. Without concerted and organized pushback, this repression will only get worse.

41 states charge for what is known as cell rent. And even if you parole out early states like Florida will make you pay the TOTALITY per day of your original stay.

This is ultimately coming for everyone, they’re just starting with those least able to resist it. *Unless* we develop a real political response to AI.
A U.S. charity in Gaza is worried that teachers at its schools might stray from a curriculum it says promotes peace and tolerance, so it plans to record classroom conversations and use artificial intelligence to flag speech deemed “hateful” or “inciting.” apnews.com/article/gaza-chil…

Happening now in Madrid, Spain:
Protesters march to the apartment that Maricarmen Abascal was evicted from, which sparked the nationwide protests for decent housing for all.
She would still be alive if not for the greed of the corporate landlord class.

Palestinians being recorded and having their words fed into AI to make sure they don’t acknowledge the world outside their school that is now made out of a collection of tents.

NEW ⛓️💥 On 30 October, dockworkers across 40 Mediterranean ports will take coordinated action against militarisation.
They refuse to let NATO, the US and the EU turn their ports into outposts for a war economy that devours public resources and visits destruction abroad.

The extent of US intervention in Brazil has discredited the very concept of elections. None of them in Latin America are free or fair anymore. Every vote is held with a gun to people’s heads, direct threats of sanctions and even war if you vote the 'wrong way'.

HUGE: Autozone workers just won the first ever union at the company.
Despite Autozone spending an estimated $210,696 and using every tactic in the book to stop just 11 workers from forming a union, the small shop in New York chose to unionize today.
These workers will now join the @UAW.

Between left and right we are in a period of general collapse preceding realignment. The illusions of bourgeois ideology are most powerful in periods of growth and success. If there’s one essay worth reading at this point in time it’s Bordiga’s Activism:

Last year i wrote Red Sincerity, which id sum down into it being important to argue for your fullest truth even/especially if doing so is unpopular. Because knowing what you are arguing for, that what you are arguing for will be consistent, allows actual persuasion to take place
