As the facade of #corporatepride crumbles with the ascent of Trumpism, it provides us with some insight into how much of a role #idpol was playing in obfuscating the ongoing #classwar previously.
The socio-ecological science consistently demonstrates an upper hand for diverse, more equitable, and inclusive teams compared to more homogeneous teams.
It's a little bit like working remote in the early 21st century- the leaders of the pack were already doing it before the pandemic hit.
[CONTEXT: I just came back from r/CommunismMemes]
I hate Marxism-Leninism, and I'm disgusted by many Marxist-Leninists. They justify some of the most disgusting atrocities that, in addition to being generally horrible, are explicitly anti-Marxist and anti-democratic.
What I hate most is that I used to call myself a Marxist-Leninist and that it took me so long to realize my error.
Fuck all the Zionists and fascists on Twitter, and elsewhere, incl Lindsay Graham, who want to kill a young woman for trying to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza, where virtually the entire population is under threat of famine due to Israel's genocidal war and blockade.
No surprise Thunberg's goal has shifted from just fighting climate change to overthrowing the entire capitalist system. It's become increasingly clear, to anyone who is paying attention, that the climate crisis, homelessness, poverty, imperialism, incl the genocide of Palestinians, are all products of capitalism, and cannot be ended without ending capitalism.

Today in Labor History June 2, 1919: Anarchist Galleanists carried out a series of 9 coordinated bombings across the Eastern United States. They damaged the homes of U.S. Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer, as well as then Assistant Secretary of the Navy, Franklin D. Roosevelt. They also targeted a number of judges. None of the targeted men died, although a night watchman, a former editor of the Galleanist publication “Cronaca Sovversiva,” did accidentally get killed. The bombs were delivered in packages that included the following note: “War, Class war, and you were the first to wage it under the cover of the powerful institutions you call order, in the darkness of your laws. There will have to be bloodshed; we will not dodge; there will have to be murder: we will kill, because it is necessary; there will have to be destruction; we will destroy to rid the world of your tyrannical institutions.”
The response by Palmer included mass illegal search and seizures, unwarranted arrests and the deportation of several hundred suspected radicals and anarchists. He also carried the nationwide witch hunts known as the Palmer raids in November 1919 and January 1920, arresting 10,000 anarchists, communists, and labor leaders, imprisoning 3,500, and deporting 556, including Emma Goldman and Alexander Berkman. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), was founded in response to the raid, by IWW organizer Elizabeth Gurley Flynn, Helen Keller, and others.
Never forget, race, color and nationality divides us, class is the only thing that can unite us against our true enemies.
They do everything they can to prevent us from realizing it and focus on the real enemies.
It's better to do it now.
We suffer more to wait for 4 years for that. Do it or otherwise we will have Germany to do (again) attack against all.
ps. it matters to say that bourgeoisie will be fine when working class will be the meat for the (willing by european leaders) war?
ps.1 Let's finish it.

I've never been a believer in the importance of widely publicizing all the monstrous, fascist bullshit GOP and Republican-aligned officials spout to justify their horrible political decisions when someone finally presses them for answers about why, for example, they're prepared to kill thousands of their own voters to give Broligarch villains more spare yacht money. The simple truth however is that we already know these maggot bootlicking nazis don't give a fuck if labor class Americans live or die; it's written all over their policies, and thus it doesn't really matter what bullshit they come up with to justify those policies. At some point however, the mask slips often enough and these monsters say the quiet part out enough times, that the callous inhuman response to questions about the real human carnage the Republicans are enabling, becomes so repugnant it becomes a story in its own right.
As such I'm gonna do a slop-post round up of some of the most outrageous things GOP politicians and Republican-aligned media people have said to justify their support for, again, a homicidal class war bill that will kill thousands, potentially millions of Americans, and drag the country closer to the fascist dictatorship of Trump's dreams.
First up, GOP House Speaker and noted fundie fascist "anti-porn pact with his son" haver Mike Johnson wants you to know that if the One Big Beautiful Bill Act kills you, or someone you love, it's because you were undeserving of medical care.
Mike Johnson Claims 'Big, Beautiful Bill' Will Only Cut Medicaid For Undeserving People
“The numbers of Americans who are affected are those that are entwined in our work to eliminate fraud, waste and abuse,” Johnson said on CNN."
Even setting aside the fact that Johnson is lying, this is absolutely going to harm people who depend on Medicaid, and the numerous reports in this thread prove it; what the Speaker openly admitted is more or less that if you can't work, the government considers you "waste, fraud, and abuse" which is an extraordinary thing to say to underpaid, underserved labor class people you want to keep voting for you.
Next up, the Republican Senator from Iowa, Joni Ernst, resorted to amateur existentialism to defend her support for the Billionaire Bill. Sure, this legislation will kill people, but on a long enough timeline aren't we all going to die?
https://truthout.org/articles/gop-senators-defense-of-medicaid-cuts-well-we-all-are-going-to-die/
GOP Senator’s Defense of Medicaid Cuts: “Well, We All Are Going to Die”
"As Iowa Republican Sen. Joni Ernst answered a question about the GOP’s cuts in a town hall, constituents concerned over the future of crucial lifesaving programs yelled, “people are going to die.”
“Well, we all are going to die,” Ernst responded, in an exasperated tone. “For heaven’s sakes. For heaven’s sakes, folks.”
Like Johnson above, Ernst also resorted to bald-faced lies about the GOP's desire to protect the most vulnerable; which once again can be confirmed as absolute bullshit due to the overwhelming number of nonpartisan analysis reports indicated the One Big Beautiful Bill Act is definitely going to kill poor, disabled, or otherwise marginalized people. In addition to targeting trans people, effectively banning asylums seekers from nonwhite countries, and helping Trump ignore court orders.
Things were no better on Trump state news, otherwise known as Fox. Over there, host Brian Kilmeade wants you to know that this is only going to affect broke people "addicted to free money" in the form of healthcare, and those chumps would have died already if the program worked like it's "supposed to."

I'd like to take a moment to pick out that last line of reasoning, because it runs through a majority of the ways these nazi ghouls are trying to justify throwing your grandma into a woodchipper while releasing the largest Pentagon budget in American history *and* giving the uber-wealthy ruling class the largest tax cut we've ever seen, at the same time. You see, it would be very hard for the GOP to just straight up deny the Billionaire Bill is going to harm millions of labor class people in terrible ways, although some are trying that strategy. What they've settled on is an argument that Medicaid and other social safety net programs were never intended to help all the people they'll be denying coverage to. There's just one problem in that this argument does nothing to address the human carnage the bill is going to cause; they're saying if you die, you were always meant to die, and they're not even blinking while doing it.
Finally of course, we need to give a special shoutout to GOP Congressman Mike Flood, who when confronted at a town hall about a provision in the bill he'd just voted for, blurted out that he hadn't even read it.
Town hall ERUPTS over GOP rep.'s confession about House budget bill
I think this version of the meme makes much more sense. Blaming the climate crisis solely on white people isn't correct or useful. Most white people aren't in any position of authority to directly do anything about the climate crisis on their own. It's the rich capitalists who are solely responsible for the climate crisis.

Washington county, located west of Portland, got a $1.5m deflection budget approved last year. Nearly $700,000 of it was allocated to salaries for new law enforcement positions: $283,487 for a high-level deputy district attorney; $116,664 for a legal specialist in the district attorney’s office; and $257,335 for a sheriff’s lieutenant. It also included $40,000 for overtime for the sheriff’s office.
The county, meanwhile, allotted $360,000 total for community peer mentor services meant to directly help people get services and treatment.
I've witnessed so many Marxist-Leninists tell anarchists that if their social experiments didn't work, then the fault lies in their ideology and systems of organization.
How come these same Marxist-Leninists don't apply this same logic to Marxist-Leninists states that have all resulted in oppressive and totalitarian dictatorships that have completely strayed from Marx's vision of a democratic workers state?
Marxist-Leninists who say ML states could have been successful if only they weren't ruined by US intervention sound exactly like anarchists who say that their social experiments would have worked if it weren't for state intervention. It's the same bad argument.
