Only against the ruling class.
The fact that their is a video clip of Kamala talking about Iran when she was running for Girlboss in Chief leads me to believe the decision was already made a while ago.
All last weekend my fyp was brigaded by chud text posts where they try to act tough about the "radical libs protesting" and I still don't know what I did to deserve it. I barely ever talk to libs or chuds on there and my feed is mostly communist creators and stuff about autism...
My greatest fear is probably being realized about the "behind closed doors" stuff that happened to keep TikTok in the states. My favorite thing about the app was that the feed alg tended to stay with your interests instead of trying to bait you like FB does.
That's sort of what happens when you can't afford shit and instead of offering living wages, the US further funds the Gazan genocide. Literally the only things I've been spending money on that isn't necessities has been mutual aid food distribution.
Our local group of anarchist and Marxist hooligans are in early talks on how to start educating and radicalizing the group of radlibs that we were helping run cop watch, scanner duties, and jail support for. There is a lot of confused and scared libs that the little optimist in me thinks we can work with and help them start to understand things from an actual leftist perspective. If we can see even a few new comrades come out of this with the smaller turnout we had at the protest, I think it will be worth it. We won't counter-coopt the org, but I think it's a good place to develop networks and go from there.

Saw a post on there yesteraday where someone couldn't believe some of us work 2 jobs just to be able to afford rent and food. I really hope this opens a lot of westerners eyes to to what is and isn't propaganda.
Idk where else to put this but our local Amazon plant is striking. I work nearby for a subcompany so I drive by every day to work and this morning I saw like 12-20 people out front with signs. I'm reaching out to my local org to see what I can do to help even though my branch isn't fully established yet.
I can't wait for this quasi-class consciousness thing to fade out in a few weeks so I can go back to being a jaded curmudgeon.
I'm not the biggest RatM fan but I always love a good dunk by Morello. Dude is based.
Trump winning 2024 isn't anyone's fault but the Democratic Party's.
Not only does our votes not really matter, but it's hard to even pretend voting can even change anything at this point. The DNC had one job, and that was to win against Trump. And for some God damn reason, they thought Biden was their guy. Our system is a fucking joke.
He won in 2020 because it was a clown show to begin with. If they actually want to do anything worth while, they need to push actual likeable candidates that millennials, zoomers, and marginalized people don't feel disgusted in voting for.
I know the "just like me frfr" meme exists but like it's literally a blueprint for a win for them. But instead they wanna try and attract people so old they are gonna die halfway through this next term so it doesn't even matter. Dems just need to run a young socdem and it's an easy victory. I don't know why this is so hard for them.

E2: I didn't realize this comment got this much traction. Jerboa and crappy mountain Internet isn't giving me notifications. I tried to read through and do follow up comments but y'all have spot on analyses as usual.
I'd be curious to know how it changed tbh.
