one of the main reasons keir starmer suspended corbyn right now is to cause yet another leftist exodus from labour to help ensure the ongoing NEC vote goes his way. he's using whatever means available to him to crush his opponents. I wish we had someone like that
instead we have someone who has massive political capital, still being the most popular former leader among members, and will happily let it evaporate into thin air as he tries to fight his suspension through official channels that'll lead to nothing. labourism is a helluva drug
if the socialist campaign group breaks away from the labour party right now they'll immediately be the third largest opposition party in parliament after the SNP. form an alliance with the SNP and Greens and go into the next election purely to fuck keir starmer. FUCK HIM
you want to throw the election to the tories twice out of spite because the members chose a mild social democrat to lead the labour party? let's go we'll throw it. let's fucking go. I'll throw it a million times. as long as I can FUCK keir starmer I'll do it a million times

starmer just suspended corbyn from the labour party. that's what happens when you spend 5 years trying to appease blairite scumfucks who kept saying, publicly, that they would rather knife you in the front than the back (a literal quote from labour MP jess phillips)
starmer has accomplished in a few months what corbyn was unwilling to do in 5 years despite an overwhelming mandate from labour members. he had faith in the institutions of the party, in the bullshit procedures blairites pulled out of their ass. this is his reward.
they organized a coup against his leadership and corbyn won that race with an ever bigger majority than the first, and then just acted like nothing happened. he just let them continue with their sabotage. they then went on to intentionally lose two elections. it's a sick joke

here's tim pool's podcast co-host saying "who's to say the jews wouldn't have been more violent than hitler?", then regurgitates the nazi propaganda line that hitler's rise was merely a response to "communist violence". just some real normal big-brain ideas floating around there
the line that the rise of hitler and the nazis "stem from communist violence" is classic nazi propaganda which jordan peterson also pushed. nazi apologists came up with it in the 1980s and were thoroughly debunked by actual historians, as detailed here by habermas
btw after tim pool's podcast co-host drops that totally deranged nazi apologetic line, tim just moves on. he doesn't even acknowledge it as totally fucking batshit. the guy casually spouted nazi agitprop to his audience of millions and it's as natural as drinking water to them

lil pump is trending for endorsing trump bc he doesn't want to pay a bit more in taxes, so here's malcolm x reminding you to ignore these clown ass black and brown celebrities spouting nonsense that placates the powerful

whenever I post about malcolm x deranged magaites swarm in claiming he would be on trump's side bc of his critique of white liberals, even though he was a revolutionary socialist who supported castro and the vietcong, as detailed in this thread:

and for more of malcolm, talking about what to do in response to police violence and systemic racism, whether he hates white people and other topics, see the clips in this thread:

kanye west summed up in 30 seconds

kanye west is what happens when you have a limitless cash supply, are ensconced in a bubble of freakish sycophants, and get all your information from watching youtube, netflix and joe rogan. just total deranged bullshit oozing out of your mouth
"YO GET THIS ELON MUSK IS LIKE MY HERO BRO HE INVENTED ELECTRIC CARS. IM LIKE MICHAEL JACKSON, IM MAKING THRILLER. TESLA WAS LIKE THE ORIGINAL GOD. STEVE JOBS IS MY FATHER. YO HE MADE THE IPHONE BRO. IM THE DEADPOOL FOR GOD" holy shit shut the fuck up you fucking dumb bitch

I love cornel west and consider him one of the greatest thinkers around, but this has to be said: his "lesser evilism" position, which he adhered to in 2004, 2008, 2012 and again now in 2020, *but explicitly did not in 2016 when he endorsed jill stein*, makes no fucking sense
if you're going to claim you're basing your position on a principle, you have to be actually principled. you can't just say "yeah ok I had a personal hatred of hillary so it didn't apply there but for everyone else you definitely have to vote for the lesser evil!" that's bullshit
it's even more egregious bc hillary clinton was actually to the left of biden, however marginally. one of the reasons west cited for not backing hillary was bill clinton's crime bill. *biden authored the bill*. his foreign police is as hawkish if not more. there's no excuse

evolution of right-wing and liberal bogeyman caricature of the left to divert attention from structural critiques of capitalism to culture war bullshit:

Kulturbolschewismus

⬇️

Political Correctness

⬇️

Social Justice Warriors

⬇️

Cultural Marxism

⬇️

Critical Race Theory
these function as empty signifiers, denoting contradictory, purely mythical things: the "sjw cultural marxists" dominate all major institutions in society, while simultaneously being weak, coddled, loser snowflakes who don't dare come out of their "safe spaces"
that's because the bogeyman caricature has to fulfil the double function of instilling fear and terror, while also being impotent and on the verge of collapse. all that's required is for The West, The Civilized, The Masculine, The White, The Bourgeoisie to stand up and fight it
