Social Democracy fans when they can't exploit the Global South

This is your calling to get out of that annoying debate with that random stranger in a comment section

The bi revolution

Made this meme like over a year ago and forgot to post it so here we go

This is why you need a class based understanding of the economy rather than a nationalistic one. A bourgois economy is not "our economy", it's an economy by and for capitalists.

a stat i always cite is the number of anti-trans articles in the press went from 60 in a year, to 7,500

Ideas about womanhood have changed across time and cultures. Feminism has always been about challenging normative ideas of what a woman is; it intentionally keeps the question "What is a woman?" open as part of a struggle against those who seek to naturalize and enforce specific gender relations, categories and norms.

Judith Butler: What is a woman?

This is why you should look beyond individual identity and consider class, history and material conditions

"National liberation has nothing to do with marxism or class struggle!" "The Irish question is therefore not simply a question of nationality, but a question of land and existence. Ruin or revolution is the watchword; all the Irish are convinced that if anything is to happen at all it must happen quickly. The English should demand separation and leave it to the Irish themselves to decide the question of landownership. Everything else would be useless. If that does not happen soon the Irish emigration will lead to a war with America. The domination over Ireland at present amounts to collecting rent for the English aristocracy." - Karl Marx, On the Irish Question

National liberation and class struggle are connected

What sanctions do:

Sanctions make "free and fair elections" impossible by design, and that is precisely why imperial powers weaponize them.

How capitalism inevitably leads to imperialism

Fake gymbro: *Yaps about generic self-help slop while ignoring any serious socio-political analysis*

Real gymbro: *Knows we need to abolish the commodity-form to maximize our gains*

Nazis, liberals, reformists, conservatives etc. when you tell them the primary cause of our economy's ills isn't the character of the individuals in power, but the character of the capitalist mode of production and its conflict between capital and wage-laborer:

Many such cases unfortunately

Cucking men who leave their partners to invade other countries is anti-imperialist praxis

The same people who would be absolutely disgusted if someone were to associate, work together with, or otherwise collaborate with a nazi are making excuses when the same is done with a zionist

"the intensification of work, the extension of the working day, and the expropriation of part of the labor necessary for the worker to replenish his labor power [...] in the three mechanisms considered, the essential feature is that the worker is denied the conditions necessary to replenish his labor power that has been worn away: [...] In capitalist terms, these mechanisms (which, moreover, can and usually do occur in combination) mean that labor [power] is remunerated below its value, and thus amount to a super-exploitation of labor." - Ruy Mauro Marini, The Dialectics of Dependency

Marini posting

"Thus events strikingly analogous but taking place in different historic surroundings led to totally different results. By studying each of these forms of evolution separately and then comparing them one can easily find the clue to this phenomenon, but one will never arrive there by the universal passport of a general historico-philosophical theory, the supreme virtue of which consists in being super-historical." - Letter from Marx to Editor of the Otecestvenniye Zapisky

A common misunderstanding of historical materialism is the idea that it assumes a linear, universal concept of history that presumes societies will always develop the same way everywhere

Rip Rosa Luxemburg you would've loved american "democratic socialists"

Queer struggles and anti-colonial/anti-imperial struggles are interconnected. The gender binary and heteronormativity are not neutral or universal facts of nature, but rather established themselves through social, physical and political violence within broader colonial and imperial processes.

Common Marx truth nuke

Who needs the CIA when you have ChatGPT lmao

And this causes children to be perceived as failures (either by themselves, their parents and/or society at large) when they are not successful according to the logic of capital. It's one of many ways capitalism has commodified our relationships

Western "Aid" is just a tool of imperialism

The idea that the EU is somehow a "nice" form of western hegemony compared to the imperialist US is one that is very popular among european liberals. But reality shows that it is just as imperialist and exploitative in its nature as the US is.
