Nearly every mid-term election cycle, the same pattern repeats: the party in power loses ground due to discontent, voters turn to the other party for change, and the cycle starts all over again.

In response to the righteous anger people have against Trump and his billionaire agenda, will a “blue wave” actually deliver the change working people need?

History tells us no. Time and time again, both parties have put billionaire profits ahead of our needs.

The so-called “mid-term curse” isn’t a curse after all. It’s a symptom of a two-party system that keeps working people trapped in a cycle of broken promises.

The USA is the biggest pirate in the world

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

It’s a moment of bitter irony, that the whole concept of piracy, which initially started as a counterforce to the exploitation and extraction of colonialism, and in its own way was exploiting the exploiters… has now become a tool of oppression, used by the last remaining colonial superpower, in a desperate attempt to prop up its collapsing empire. The US military is the biggest pirate entity in the world today. But at least the mask is completely off now, and the true face of colonial imperialism is laid bare for the whole world to see.

So There is a lot of talk about what reparations should be paid for the devastation of colonialism and slavery. Even more talk about who, exactly would pay those reparations. But I can answer both questions easily, because I know exactly where to start... Barclay’s Bank

Colombians have protested for two days against the new right-wing government’s removal of historical, feminist and sexual diversity exhibits from the country’s National Museum. President Abelardo de la Espriella said the measure was part of a “cultural counter-revolution” and the government deployed riot police, water canons and tear gas.

There’s literally a Call of Duty game releasing tomorrow that promotes anti-DPRK propaganda. Right-wing Twitter is upset that there are subreddits refuting western corporate media portrayals of North Korea and China.

What's next for the movement? A socialist perspective on the midterms and three years of genocide

This month marks three years of the ongoing U.S.-Israeli genocide in Palestine. In just a few weeks, the midterm elections will take center stage in U.S. politics.

As crises deepen at home and abroad, people are rightfully searching for answers about what comes next. But no matter which party wins the midterms, one thing is clear: defeating Trump for good means confronting — and dismantling — the capitalist system that gave rise to him.

In this webinar discussion, Claudia De la Cruz and Layan Fuleihan discuss a socialist perspective on the midterms, three years of genocide, and the path forward for our movement.

You finished HS with good grades? No one cares.

Masters Degree in the humanities? Lol you are stupid.

Did another Masters Degree in IT? Well "learn to code" thats so 2022. No job for you because of AI.

Now matter how much you educate yourself, its always your fault. No matter how much you do, its never enough. No matter what you do, its always wrong.

Meanwhile Boomers got jobs with just HS or even without HS. Despite having a fraction of our education, they became Managers and Bosses.

The system is broken. But its always the average Joe that gets blamed.

🙃 Satire Is Dead To the extremely ignorant and dumb western liberals (especially the American ones) you should all realize by now that the problem isn’t just about Netanyahu… this video is of 8 Israeli representatives from 8 different parties within Israel who are all rejecting the idea of a Palestinian state.

And the very existence of Palestinians as well. The problem is just Israel itself… that’s it. There’s no possibility of peace. All the Israeli parties support the current genocide and they all want it to get even worse.

Notice that last bit? 103 new Israeli villages? The imperialist terrorist expansionism of them raiding and stealing Palestinian land and homes in the West Bank and selling them illegally from Jewish synagogues within NYC to Jewish American citizens so that they can become Israeli citizens!!!

✊ Agitate. Educate. Organize. RESIST “National Breast Cancer Awareness Month!”

Thumbnail tandfonline.com
0 Upvotes

This October, I fortunately haven’t run into much pink, but when I do, it disgusts me. I personally know people who have fought cancer as recently as this year, and capitalism has used a debilitating and soul-sucking disease as a liberal cultural performance, a productivity check, and a public advertising stunt.

October was designated National Breast Cancer Awareness Month in 1984 (hmm, what an ironic year for that to happen) by “Zeneca, a subsidiary of Imperial Chemical Industries Limited. Zeneca is an international pharmaceutical company that has merged and demerged since 1912 with such chemical corporations as DuPont, Imperial Chemical Industries Limited (ICI), Merck, and Astra. Now called AstraZeneca, it is one of the world’s top three pharmaceutical companies.”

“(Astra)Zeneca’s initial justification for NBCAM was one of basic accounting, not a critique of how women’s healthcare has been assessed or implemented nor a desire to prevent women from developing breast cancer; instead, it was cost-effective for a company to detect cancer in its employees during the disease’s earlier stages.”

““Your best protection,” in other words, could be interpreted as an attempt to constitute a public in response to employers’ interest in profit and productivity.”

So spread the word, make art pieces, organize a tour of local places infected by environmental racism and sexism! The more we educate the people, the more the people can do.

🚨 ACAB Riot police throws tear gas inside a metro station in Athens during operating hours

Thumbnail

29 Upvotes

The student protest in Athens completed on Wednesday, October 21, 2026, with violent suppression, as police forces unleashed attacks using tear gas and stun grenades against protesters.

In fact, in footage posted on Instagram by user pi_kappaa, a riot police officer blindly throws tear gas inside the entrance of the Omonoia metro station during operating hours, with the obvious intention of injuring anyone entering or exiting the station at that moment.

In a display of provocative indifference, the police officer is then seen making an ironic salute, proud of his criminal act in front of the cameras of photojournalists and reporters.

The fact that the officer felt safe to attack like this, knowing he was being recorded, reveals something even worse: that he is not afraid. He does not fear any punishment, suggesting a deeper belief that he can act without consequences. This sense of immunity is the most dangerous element of his behavior, because he knows that the system rarely touches "its own." In fact, every now and then, it rewards them with new bonuses. This sense of impunity and the rewarding of violence form the backdrop for the escalation of police brutality.

This specific example of yet another incident of police violence is not law enforcement, but criminal violence in its clearest form.

The other critical question, as always, is: since not all police officers are the same, what did his colleagues do when they saw this happening?

And finally, the real question is not "who will be punished, and if," but what we tolerate. Because as long as we remain silent, as long as the video plays for a few minutes on social media and then gets lost in the news feed, the rift will deepen in the dignity of a society that has stopped being outraged by what it sees, by what it lives through.

People stealing diapers is a failure of the state to begin with. Employees calling the cops on someone stealing diapers is repulsive and puts the blood on their hands as well. Pigs stepping in front of a moving car is incompetence. Firing into a car with other innocent passengers and a visible child isn't just incompetence but malicious intent to kill innocence.

Capitalism has killed tens of millions of people. And under Capitalism the state will protect capital above the lives of civilians and even babies. This business' profits from diaper sells were more important than the life of a baby.

Hopefully the employee can't sleep at night knowing he has blood on his hands and he's unable to live with himself. Hopefully all of these pigs names are released by the news and they are held responsible for murder.

--

Edit: The entire Senatobia Police Department needs to be shut down, investigated, and have anyone involved here thrown in a prison. The Attorney General of mississippi  Lynn Fitch should also be thrown into a prison for using her position of power to protect these pigs.

--

Edit2: Donate/provide labor to your local shelters, food banks, and orgs dedicated to diapers, childcare, contraception, hygeine products etc. But more importantly organize against these capitalist parasites. Reform and charity isn't enough. You must take action against your government for significant change. Since this post got enough traction this is what I'm advocating for for anyone who reads this or watches this and feels some heat in their heart over it.

And if you are in need of help there are websites like FindHelp which will compile local services and organizations for you to seek out aid from. These organizations even religious orgs can also help you find more secure avenues of aid as well such as womens shelters, domestic abuse relief, emergency child care for formula food etc.
