Marxist Texan | Blue Collar I like to read theory DOTP all day, every day. Capitalism must end. Free Palestine. Protect our trans comrades. Lift the Cuban embargo. It's been long enough.

I think I've come to terms with the fact that I won't live to see Communism in my lifetime. This will take centuries of cultural and social change.

But I do think we can achieve socialism in my lifetime. Everyone having the right to what they need.

Slow growing tree is often the strongest.

Thomas Sankara, assassinated on this day in 1987:

‘I would like this conference to clearly declare that we cannot pay this debt…just to avoid being assassinated individually. If Burkina Faso is the only one to refuse, I won’t be at the next conference’

"People will work 15-hour weeks by 2030 because of technology!!-John Maynard Keynes

This brain day skipper really thought capitalism would use technology to liberate people from work and to provide for everyone.

One of Africa’s greatest sons Thomas Sankara

Here’s a summary of Thomas Sankara’s achievements in his short 4 years in power in Burkina Faso before being overthrown in a French & CIA-backed coup:

Are you really trying to gaslight me right now?

Didn't you say the Crime Bill was okay because black people supported it?

Jeff @justifiedmeh.mehcorp.net · 2h

It's literally all capitalism and US Imperialism.

It's really that simple. Who do the wealthy politicians always side with?

Whoever gives the most donations.

"Actual real history" code word for *AMERICA'S GREAT AND EVERYONE ELSE IS BAD*

Your nationalism is just as bad as right wing nationalism.

Bruh, I voted for her when I was still liberal. So find another bullshit talking point.

Jeff @justifiedmeh.mehcorp.net · 3h

Lol, okay. You're just mad because you've got no substance and no answers to the issues.

Lol, have a good night. Hope one day you sit down and ask yourself, "Why does nothing get better?"

Jeff @justifiedmeh.mehcorp.net · 3h

How the fuck do you think we got in this situation?!

This shit doesn't just crop up overnight.
It's systemic and systematic because people refuse to learn and do better.

This isn't a new occurrence. This was inevitable since the beginning of this country.

Jeff @justifiedmeh.mehcorp.net · 3h

You will literally do ANYTHING except learn the shit you need to learn.

Keep living in that little star spangled bubble. Let me know how all this works out for you.

Jeff @justifiedmeh.mehcorp.net · 3h

Lol, you quote posted your own post?

Jeff @justifiedmeh.mehcorp.net · 3h

To default to calling me a maga instead of just *listening* and taking the time and effort to learn that this country is still a colony and the economy of this country depends on keeping the marginalized poor, is just plain ignorant.

Call me what you want, you're the one who refuses to do better.

Jeff @justifiedmeh.mehcorp.net · 3h

Why can't you just admit you don't know?

I don't care what tiktok says. Life has been shit for the marginalized and poor since the beginning of this country. And that hasn't changed.

It doesn't help when every single presidency has made it harder for poor people to live.

Jeff @justifiedmeh.mehcorp.net · 3h

Provide proof.

You don't know the history of your own country. Otherwise, you'd understand why we say the things we say.

Read the accounts of the people who suffered under all these administrations. Those people who did nothing wrong and were sold out for money by all administrations.

Jeff @justifiedmeh.mehcorp.net · 3h

Exactly. Word for word this is in that book.

It does nothing to remedy the problem and just moves past it to make something else worse.

Literally just dismissal, and then continuation of terrible shit.

Jeff @justifiedmeh.mehcorp.net · 3h

There is no genuineness to anything you've said yet.

*everything happened in the past, so it doesn't matter anymore. * Type attitude.

You really should study up on something called "American Exceptionalism and Innocence" because you are giving off both in spades.

Jeff @justifiedmeh.mehcorp.net · 3h

Haven't blocked me yet.

Jeff @justifiedmeh.mehcorp.net · 3h

This is pure American exceptionalism and innocence.

Completely separating themselves from the issues they benefit from.

They live in some kind of reality where all the really vile things America did to the marginalized here and abroad *happened in the past, so they don't matter anymore.*

Jeff @justifiedmeh.mehcorp.net · 5h

It would probably help your case a bit if you actually acted like you gave a shit. But you don't, and you keep running your mouth about an issue you don't care about.

Jeff @justifiedmeh.mehcorp.net · 5h

Hindsight is 20/20?
This right here tells me you don't give a damn about anybody but yourself. I don't remember saying anything about baby eating or whatnot.

They fed the marginalized population to the prison industrial complex just like the rest of them.

we cannot make the mistake we made with germany again, the state of israel cannot be allowed to continue to exist even in a "better" "reformed" "democratic" form.

Israel sent back Greta Thunberg’s luggage scrawled with “Whore Greta”, an Israeli flag, and a penis.

Ah, so that makes it okay?

I wonder if those stuck in the Penal system because of that bill would agree with you.

The communities devasted, mass incarceration, massive increases to police budgets. Is that okay in your book?
