Caribbean rebels historically are very inspiring.
From Haiti to Cuba those revolutions reflected the strongest and most courageous human spirit.
Didn’t Barbados also recently demand reparations from France?
Need more of this.
Fidel and Che were right. There needed (needs) to be a solidarity block of central and South American countries against imperial US.
Heartened by the immediate pushback to corporate media drivel like this by traditional left and alternative media.
This’ll be an important operation going forward: responding immediately to their pathetic, off key calumny.
Can’t believe I’m allowing myself to believe in electoral politics again. Because of this.

With a movement behind you comes leverage.
Thing is, he must be willing to mobilize it for massive rallies that will be needed to get the agenda across.
And, we have to make the billionaire scumbags fear us. And that means humongous Tax The Rich rallies.
But most effectively I think DSA must mobilize rallies outside of the meeting Zohran will have with “business leaders,” the NYPD, etc. Especially that those Wall Street criminals and oligarchs think they can siphon him off, basically tell him who’s boss. When they say or imply that he should be able to say, “look out the window down into the street; there are 20,000 people down there. They’re boss!”
They need to know We Are Many.
It really does seem like an incredible opportunity to finally realize some real socialism in this hellhole country.
Was just having this conversation last night with a friend as we were remarking to each other how mesmerizing dusk is with the summer fireflies.
When he said they didn’t exist out West where he grew up I was surprised.
Thought all along fireflies at dusk was one of the more enchanting parts of summer.
Bernie was St John The Baptist .
I dig this Zohran meme.
Hey Seuss Christ…we really do have an incredibly great opportunity in NYC to put socialism on the map. It’s gonna take us all to be involved. But it’s already changed the mood entirely.
Will come to this everywhere.
Empire falling apart at home.
Just heard about this.
Henry Luce to the Time art director: “Nah. Not good enough. Bring it back with his eyes devil red, just like that bowl of communist hellfire.”
Picks up the phone after: “Hey Dulles, wait til you see this cover I’m gonna let loose.”
“Any word on that drunken Senator from Minnesota who’s hellbent on that commie witch-hunt?”
