Because very frequently "socialist" or "communist" identity online is used to bolster one's political bona fides despite that they're constantly finding excuses not to participate in direct action while simultaneously telling people not to vote because direct action is the only way.

the Great Cycle: a stupid right wing asshole starts a global war, it blows up in his face and gets 100 million people killed, including himself. everyone is like "man, let's not do that again." years pass, the war generation dies off, memories fade, and hey presto: another stupid right wing asshole!
Not to get all stentorian, but both my grandfathers served in WW2, and one of them died from its lingering sting decades later (chronic injuries). An ocean of fucking blood shed, the highest price imaginable paid to create a world where this shit didn’t happen, undone for *nothing*. Fuck you!

Those who are constitutionally incapable of accepting good news solve the dissonance by turning it into bad news to feed their anger.
no fan of jeffries, but holy shit is this article misleading. in the press briefing he calls for "a prohibition that DHS cannot *detain* or deport American citizens", and his focus throughout the briefing is on the detainment part
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) on Thursday said House Democrats will demand a ban on the deportation of American citizens as a condition of winning their support for legislation funding the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

The official policy of the government of the United States of America is that they will murder anyone they want, that they will tell any lie necessary to justify that murder, and that no one who resists them has any rights they are bound to respect.

They are targeting children because they are trying incite violence. I have talked to many journalists today, and they all made the same observation: Border Patrol and ICE have been rolling around with maximum aggression, lingering for ages as crowds, gather, seemingly trying to cause a riot.

In light of what happened to Renee Good, I thought it important to reiterate my grandmother's advice.
My grandmother’s family was murdered in the chambers of Auschwitz. She survived and told me never let it get that far. Make them shoot you in public before they murder you in hiding. Stand up for others. Never cave in fear of the Nazis or the holocaust will happen again.

This is preposterous.
First of all, she's not waving the officers through and has no right to do so even if she were. She is waving another car through, before the officers approach her car.
Second, the officers are not randomly searching her, they are approaching her vehicle Show more

Rep. @AOC: I understand that Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.

why I've become against 'directionally correct' lies. you can't control where this shit goes. here the misapprehension that defense is half the budget is being used (not by OP) to partially *justify* invasion and imperialism. I know it kinda sucks to be the 'actually' guy, but the truth does matter
I had an old post on Twitter about this. The US spends about 18% of its GDP on the social safety net and 3.5% on military. Germany spends about 24-25% of its GDP on the social safety net and 2% on the military.
Our military spending is not why they can have nice things or why we don't.
