If the left could embrace its universal mission and break from the progressive wing of capital and its intentional divide and conquer strategy these alt-right trolls would have nothing.

Marxism, as a political strategy, is very simple: the working class must organize themselves into an independent political party, take political power, and smash the bureaucratic state, in order to emancipate themselves from their present slavery. It is not about convincing the

This demonstrates why it's a waste of time to debate Destiny. We are drawn into debates wherein we lose sight of our common humanity and remain at a completely apolitical level. What is and isn't considered genocide is a question of power and politics. The question is, how can we

Wrong. 🙄 First, Marxism appeals to the *whole* working class as the subject of history (obviously differentiated but Marx called it the *universal class* for historical reasons). Second, industrial workers are strategic for *climate politics* b/c it's an industrial problem.

Both people in this vox pop are full of prejudices. One is elderly & not practiced in talking to dishonest people the other knows exactly what they are doing. Novara has form going to the poorest communities finding people to use to show their hatred of working class people

Leigh Phillips These tedious denunciations rest on an implicit claim of political and intellectual authority for contemporary left orthodoxy: you should respect the boundaries of what counts as "left" today! It's an authority that's completely unmerited, bc the left is in advanced

I want to see Joe Rogan have an interview with Norman Finkelstein What needs to be done to make this happen?

Looks like the Pahlavists are getting what they wanted. The Islamic Republic's clock is ticking anyway, but whether this 'works' as they think or hope it will is another question entirely.
