Today’s Executive Order creating a *nationwide* military “quick reaction force” and setting up an online portal to permit random fascist vigilantes to join soldiers is one of the scariest things I’ve seen in U.S. politics in my adult life. Why is it not getting more attention?

On January 1, 1804, revolutionaries established the independent country of Haiti, the first nation to permanently ban slavery. As we begin a year engulfed by the 250th anniversary of the US Declaration of Independence, it’s worth reading the Haitian Declaration of Independence in full. 🇭🇹

It appears that the books I've read either don't have these "anticommunist currents" or that such currents are so dangerous that they can't be explained.
I feel like the deep deep commitment that the Frankfurt school undertook to grasp and confront fascism isn't being taken seriously at all, tbh.

He also isn’t rehashing right-wing attacks on leftists, he is critiquing anticommunist currents (championed by self-declared marxists) and theorizes why they were promoted by the bourgeoisie.

We have to thoroughly examine the ideology of the movement we are a part of if we want to affect actual change. We also have to improve our understanding of the superstructure, which this book sets out to do. As a communist, why should I not criticize leftists who are anticommunist?

I find many of the responses to the book, these ones included, troubling. I see a lot of people making things up that do not represent its analysis. Most of the questions you’re are asking are addressed in the book.

What if elected officials had to report their contact with donors, l9bbyists and those with financial interests affected by government at this level of detail.
in illinois, unhoused people on the sex offense registry must report in person to police every week and provide a log of every place they stayed.
missing even one week or recording one address incorrectly on a weekly log is a new felony charge.
