Youtube suddenly deleted 15 years worth of on-the-ground video documentation of Palestinian life under Israeli occupation. This is how they systematically erase people's history and replace it with the oppressors viewpoint.
After over 15 years of having a Youtube account, now, while Israel is genociding Palestinians, Youtube has suddenly closed my account completely.
This is not coincidental. I had many videos which I took in Gaza, under Israel's bombs in 2009 & 2012...
These billionaires salivate at the thought of us all killing each other over culture wars while they watch from their luxury bunkers. They fear the thought of us collectively directing our anger towards them in a class war.
One of the biggest misconceptions about capitalism is that it rewards intelligence. First & foremost, it rewards privilege (being born into wealth). Beyond that, it rewards ruthlessness, manipulation & anyone willing to exploit others. The working class is full of "smart" people.

Holy shit. Abbott has installed these circular saws in the Rio Grande. Migrants have already been caught and died in these “river walls” and this is clearly meant to hurt and kill more.
We're intentionally miseducated to obscure this connection. Capital is global & relies on colonialism/imperialism to steal land/resources & open cheap labor markets for capitalists. It all comes full circle when the working class within the imperial core is abandoned/liquidated.
At this point, Congress is just an arms dealer. No education. No access to healthcare. No housing. No clean drinking water. But we’ll finance your war.
You can't commodify every single aspect of living and then not understand looting as a legitimate form of protest. Looting is the ultimate strike against a system that deems mass-produced objects to be far more precious than life itself. It is humanity demanding to be recognized.
A president with a net worth of $4.1 billion employing an education secretary with a net worth of $3.2 billion to confiscate wages and social security from poor and working-class people for education debt is the epitome of America.
