This page exists to promote the Marxist idea that those who own the properties of a society are the real rulers of that society, and that the only way to achieve both economic and political democracy - true socialist democracy - is to put those things in the hands of the ordinary people. (Thread)

IF THIS IS NOT HOSTAGE TAKING, WHAT IS? Israel refuses to release Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya who insisted on staying with his patients in his bombed hospital even after his own son was murdered. Since then he has been held in one of Israel's torture facilities.

The meme features two characters from "The Good Place." In the first panel, a character is pointing and saying, "Fun fact: Columbus is in the Bad Place." In the second panel, she continues, "because of all the raping, slave trade, and genocide."

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Raghad. Raghad is 22 years old and was finishing her studies to be a nurse. She wanted to go into nursing because her mother had a stroke that made her lose movement in her arms and legs. They are now displaced with her 10 siblings.

No intl journalists were allowed into gaza because israel didnt wsnt the world to see this (picture of totally destroyed city)
Almost every school hospital and mosque reduced to dust. And the journalists who stayed? Targetted for telling the truth. Gaza looks like the aftermath of the apocalypse

Genocide is not just about bodies, its about making places unliveable

Rajagopal, the UN special rapporteur on housing, has stressed that Palestinians in Gaza will be forced to cope with the lasting psychological effects of seeing their homes and entire communities destroyed across the enclave.

“Home is far more than four walls and a roof. Home is basically a repository of peoples’ hopes and aspirations and dreams and particularly, memories … Those are the things that make people into humans ultimately,” he told Al Jazeera.

“What happens when homes are destroyed on a massive scale and an entire community is forced to flee or scatter to the wind, is that it destroys the possibility of the members of the community becoming human again.

“The psychological impacts and trauma are profound, and that’s what we are seeing right now as people are returning to northern Gaza.”

He added that the recovery process will likely take generations. “It’s like another Nakba,” said Rajagopal, referring to the ethnic cleansing of Palestine when Israel was created in 1948, which still affects Palestinians today.

“What has happened in the last two years is going to be something similar.”

This #socialistsunday can dream of an economy where the makers and doers actually own the business properties and marketplaces of society so that we can rest easy knowing that our labour is contributing towards a better world rather than some scumbags 3rd yacht fund with a genocide on the side?

Every person who has starved in Gaza,
Every person who died from an infection,
Every kid whose limb was amputated without anaesthetic,
All of them knew that the resources they needed to stay alive were less than 10 miles away,
Deliberately withheld by Nazis.
Genocide

The left starts at anti-capitalism.
Socially liberal but pro-capitalist people are economically right wing by definition, because 'left vs right' started as economic political words.
Denouncing Liberals as part of the problem does not divide the left, because they are not of the left.

Slavery evolves from one form to another until the makers and the doers of society OWN the business properties, tools and markets of society.
Everything else is just window dressing

I realize this is a controversial take but maybe being one blown tire, one broken bone, or one paycheck away from homelessness & financial ruin at all times isn't actually "freedom" the way we were raised to believe it is.

The ceasefire was always the framing of people who wanted to pretend it was a war between two sides, rather than a Western genocide inflicted upon a defenceless people

Caitlin Johnstone @caitoz.bsky.social · 1d

"Why aren't the Free Palestine people cheering about the ceasefire?"

If you saw a man beating a child into a coma, would you cheer after the beating stopped? No, your first reaction would be horror at what happened and your second would be fear that he'll attack the kid again.
