    I have never voted for a candidate in my life. But I will be voting for Bernie Sanders in the democratic primary and the general election. If I’m doing that, there are probably tens of millions in that same position. Let me explain why I’m doing this now:

    most police are not from and do not live in the communities they are policing. Paid, outside agitators.

    After an IDF sniper from Chicago kills an unarmed civilian in Gaza, he then snipes and kills his unarmed younger brother trying to retrieve his brother's body. US-funded serial killer from Chicago says: "I mean, what was so important about that corpse?"

    Italy's PM is a right-winger, but this is still happening because Italy had a general strike that scared the shit out of them. Strikes r the most effective way to stop profits, get demands, & force policy changes If u can shut down profit, u can make any politician do anything.

    Italy to send navy ship to escort the Gaza aid flotilla. This is a direct result of Italy’s general strike for Gaza.

    Racist violence and police murder are inherent to capitalism. It will be around until we get rid of capitalism. Knowing this is also key to finding short term ways that we can collectively get some semblance of more immediate reprisal 4 these injustices Follow me for a second

    If there was even one post by Tyler Robinson saying anything with even a remotely left ideology, it'd be plastered all over the news.

    I wonder if Tyler Robinson "not cooperating"- according to the Utah governor- means that he's not been willing to portray himself as being on the left.

    A general strike stopped the fascist coup in S. Korea. A general strike is how the Italian people forced their rightwing PM to send a Navy ship protect the flotilla. It's the only thing that'll be effective v Trump.

    Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson calls for a general strike against the “tyranny” of Trump and the greed of the ultra-rich. An estimated 300,000 filled the streets for the “No Kings” march, powerfully rejecting the federal government’s “Operation Midway Blitz” against the city.

    Twitter employees could stop all layoffs by having all employees stick together and shut down all operations til they reinstate all. Strike. Form a union. We're in the biggest strike wave in the US since the 40s, w thousands of strikes in last 2yrs. Tech workers- get on board.
