What a world. #Capitalism "externalizes" costs to the point where the costs are "externalized" into our own bodies.

The working classes in the United States need to rise up and achieve a form of ecosocialism before they are annihilated by the bourgeoisie causing ecological disaster.

With #Trump & #Musk seeking to crash the #economy & decimate #socialsecurity, the #GOP in #Congress shouts #USA while the #Democrats pray for mid-term #elections. Trump received less than 50% of the votes for his "mandate".

If the left can come to grasp the right-accelerationist moment we are in, there are as many opportunities as there are threats. We did not ask for this. We do not want it. But we will not cower from it.

Fight the Rich

Kshama Sawant

"I served as the only socialist on the Seattle City Council for ten years. In that decade, my council office led movements of working people to win historic victories, including the highest minimum wage in the country. I also saw firsthand how every part of the political establishment, led by big business and the Democratic Party, viciously opposed virtually every pro-worker piece of legislation we fought for. I saw how all the cogs of the capitalist machine — the establishment politicians, the courts, the police, the NGO leaders, and sadly many labor leaders — all work in concert together against the interests of workers.

I can tell you from my experience — and it is increasingly evident to working people — that this system is completely irredeemable, as are both U.S. political parties."

[Kshama Sawant is a revolutionary socialist, a founding member of Workers Strike Back, and a former Seattle City Councilmember who helped win the first $15/hour minimum wage in a major city and the Amazon Tax on wealthy corporations to fund affordable housing.]
