The same logic that drives the police to shoot an unarmed black worker is the same logic that motivates an Israeli settler to shoot a Palestinian child
Class ties and class loyalty is what ultimately matters. That is always what it has ultimately boiled down to. The rules are for the masses. For the ruling class, there's always an exception. Always a seat at the table for the right family, with the right class ties and loyalty. 3/3 #Socialism
Louis XVI appointed Necker and then fired him, then brought him back. Marie Antoinette's favorites floated in and out of office based on who was crying hardest at Versailles. A form of capitalist monarchical patronage and they call it "leadership" 2/3 #Anticapitalism

I love these old newspapers. Our tradition is old.
The laboratory is always the Global South. Sonic weapons in Venezuela. White phosphorus in Fallujah. Agent Orange in Vietnam. Depleted uranium in the Balkans.
I rarely see people talking about this "discombobulator" the state department used on January 3. This "sonic weapon". We've just internalized the American Empire is capable of heads "exploding from the inside" and making professional soliders "vomit blood". This isn't normal. #HandsOffVenezuela
Iran's defense is deeply decentralized. You can't missile swarm a dispersed network into submission. The pentagon genuinely thought this would be a 3-day venture. Bomb some palaces, some schools, kill some leaders, and the Iranian state flops over with its belly up. Delusional. #Socialism
The American government is spending millions of dollars using advanced missiles to intercept swarm drones worth a fraction. They are fighting what amounts to flying lawn mowers with advanced missiles. The missile math spells doom for the state department. #Iran #USPol #HandsoffIran
Apartheid is a defined Crime Against Humanity under international law (Rome Statute):
1) An Institutionalized Regime of systematic oppression & domination.
2) The commission of specific Inhumane Acts (murder, deportation, segregation).
3) The Intent to maintain that regime.

The killing continues. There is only one path forward: not nationalist resistance but international working class revolution.

Be honest with yourself. Hamas has failed in every way that matters. Months and months of brave resistance. Tens of thousands of martyrs. Gaza reduced to rubble. Genocide. Child butchery. A US-imposed "peace" that disarms the resistance, hands Gaza to imperialist administrators 1/ #FreeGaza
There is no peace without revolution.

The Iranian masses are in motion. Some are celebrating, some mourning, some enraged but all of it is being channeled into dead ends. The regime channels anger into nationalist rallies. The diaspora channels hope into imperialist backed exiles. And in between a working class is 1/ #Socialism #Iran
When you hand your countries resources to your oppressor, cut ties with revolutionary allies and thank the empire for the privilege for the "kind willingness to work together" while your president rots in a Brooklyn prison, that is not survival. That is semi-colonial submission. #HandsOffVenezuela
An idle bomb is a failed investment. This is the logic of capital. You cannot have overproduction without finding a market, and the straight jacket of the nation-state will always export those idle bombs.
Jingoism is the delusion that the billionaire's flag on your porch means you own a share of the Empire. You do not. You have more in common with the massacred Minab school girls than you do with Raytheon executives. The only flag worth dying for is the scarlet one. #Socialism #Anticapitalist
