i’m not a liberal or democrat… i’m FAAAAR LEFT. i’m so far left i think billionaires should have to reapply for millionaire status and be DENIED.

we were protesting like the French in Ferguson when Mike Brown was killed and the US brought out tanks and flash grenades…. a lot of Gen Z won’t remember because they were still in elementary school.

people in the US don’t protest like they do in France because the propaganda in the US is so strong that people internalize their failures instead of correctly seeing it as a product of a immoral, capitalist system

Americans underestimate their own brainwashing.

we are in such a Gramscian moment. ripe conditions for revolutionary organizing but no revolution.

you know that you're middle age when you're excited about a new flavor of Tums that's coming out 🤣

Abdul El-Sayed isn't even taking the Zohran Mamdani route of doing a 180 after he gets elected. he's capitulating before he even GETS elected. these people are SO UNSERIOUS.

i will NEVER condemn Hamas!

one of my favorite Marxist thinkers, Antonio Gramsci, whom many Marxists have simply not read, if they dare to be honest, had a great point about how Marxists needing to stop thinking of themselves as “unappreciated geniuses” and that they just need to go do the fucking work.

too many leftist groups are just social clubs masquerading as insurgent cells most leftists i've encountered couldn't organize themselves out of a paper bag.

i’m sick of hearing these dweeb ass leftists argue about Trotsky versus Lenin… motherfucka what organizations have you helped build for the working class?

if enough of my fellow leftists cared even half as much about building movements as they do about being right, we might already be free.

so exhausted by people who assume that i know nothing about a topic. it be your own people too.

new hobby unlocked!!!

i tell liberals that you have to join an organization with revolutionary potential, and they stare at me like a moose in headlights. they genuinely believe they can protest and scream into the ether and eventually revolution will spontaneously happen.

the fact that they think this is exclusive to Trump and not representative of every capitalist is very liberal. the statue represents capitalism at its core.

human beings have to accept that there is no inherent meaning to this universe and learn to struggle to make meaning for themselves.

Blue MAGA is celebrating this because they are fascists too.

when they released half the Epstein files and we saw that Trump and the global elite were literally raping and eating children, half the people on Bluesky didn't even know about it or didn't have the political understanding to see how vile it was. same thing for Massie’s defeat today.

the average liberal voter is so stupid that they will see a small Kentucky congressional race become the most expensive congressional race in history and will shrug their shoulders and say, “oh, isn't that interesting”, with no true understanding of what it implies.

when all white folks are against you, you know that you’re doing something right.

i remember when we were begging yall to stop hugging cops.

the West does not only exploit. it narrates exploitation as Progress, spreading “democracy”, liberating women from “backwards societies” etc.

western civilization needs barbarism in order to exist.

the enormous violence Europe imposed on the rest of the world was done so because it had to become cosmological. the destruction of other societies does not merely enrich Europe. it confirms Europe’s truth about itself.

Fanon helps because he sees the colonial world as ontological, not merely economic.

colonial language is not merely ‘superstructure’ or ideology. it is part of the colonial making of the world. it helps produce the colonized subject, the colonizer’s authority, and the very categories through which humanity, intelligence, civilization, and legitimacy are recognized.

"F&ck the planet" by the New York Times

“European civilization” is incapable of solving the proletarian and colonial problems it created.

yes capitalism is the economic system that developed later in the broader civilizational project but capitalism became the world’s dominant economic system, not the whole world itself.

Europe MUST stand trial for the horrors it unleashed across the world for the last 500 years.

i’m not just critiquing an economy. i’m critiquing a cosmology.

Millennials do not have the ability to save for retirement. Because White Baby Boomers ruined our entire society and economy, hoarding historic levels of wealth, jobs and government benefits in the process. THEN they accused/still accuse millennials of being lazy—not hard workers like they are.

anti-Blackness structures social life so deeply even movements that claim to fight oppression often reproduce anti-Black assumptions without realizing it.

the deeper issue is that left spaces often reproduce a hierarchy where European revolutionary categories are treated as universal theory, while Black, African, Indigenous, Caribbean and anti-colonial categories are treated as regional amendments.

western civilization posits itself as modern, universal, rational, lawful, progressive, moral, developed, while having being built through conquest, slavery, genocide, extraction, policing, and racial domination.

when they ask me how i feel about South Africa? Long Live the EFF.

the world that produces the colonized as inferior has to be abolished as a world.

in the US, any socialism that does not begin from Indigenous dispossession and Black enslavement is already lying about the society it wants to transform.

can you make peace with a monster?

Afropessimism = brilliant paralysis

can you make peace with a monster?

you do not become recognized as fully human by politely requesting acknowledgment from someone who already treats you as inferior. you become human in the world by forcing a confrontation with the structure that denies your humanity.
