The antifascist themes of cartoons like Macross, Gundam, Votoms, Mazinger Z, Venus Wars, Brave Raideen, Transformers, Aura Battler Dunbine, Heavy Metal L-Giam, & Dougram showed young me to always question authority & always side with the oppressed. The politics were much deeper than Marvel/DC/Disney

The hosts, Nina (new to Gundam) and Thom (lifer), have been doing this full-time since 2018 and have covered government sanctioned revenge killing in the Edo period, the origins of weird lines of dialog like "the birds will laugh at me," vending machines, ice cream, war pigeons, and tons more!

Today we see how Rafah is being destroyed.
What is happening is genocide.

Political parties are at war with their own base - attempting to smother, repress + sabotage even piecemeal reforms, while the majority of our lives become even more impoverished.

They are not representations of the people, but appendages of the corporate billionaire interests which fund them.
BREAKING: Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema have cast decisive votes against Biden's NLRB nominee. This means the Democrats will not secure control of the national labor regulator through 2026. These two Senators effectively handed Trump control of the board when his term begins.

In 1968 Finland banned for profit education, the few private schools that exist in Finland have to reinvest any profit they make or pay it back to parents.

It has been in the Top 3 in education for the last 20 years.

There should be no profit in education or healthcare.

Rosa Luxemburg and Emma Goldman would have loved Tumblr. Lenin would be the sassiest twitter reply guy. Trotsky would have written the lengthiest reddit polemnics. Stalin would have been a 4chan edgelord. Marx & Engels would tag team facebook comments section. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

The ghouls trying to dismantle the #NLRB seem to forget that this is what bureaucratized & normalized labor relations in America. Before that, we got in shootouts and burnt their mansions down. If they want to go back to that, I'm game, but I don't think they're gonna like how it ends.
