joe scarborough on msnbc expressing the view of the entire professional media class: "biden will have to govern like bill clinton governed, he will govern from the center, from the middle". in other words: the exact thing that gave you trump
the entire professional media class is manufacturing consent for neoliberalism on steroids under biden: harsh austerity, cutting social programs (he might even go for social security), tax cuts, corporate giveaways. and you know what? they'll get it all. bc they own this place
do you think an election platform, hilariously called "the most progressive in US history", means a goddamn thing when a record-breaking 14 billion was spent on the election? LOL biden will wipe his ass with that, just as obama did. THEY OWN EVERYTHING
no matter what the outcome was going to be, no matter by what margin biden won, no matter if he got the senate too, they were going to do this. that's why biden was selected in the first place. he is the bitch of the billionaire class. their senile puppet
reminder that biden wanted to run in 2016 and would have easily become the nominee and have beaten trump, but obama told him not to and cleared the way for hillary, thereby giving you a trump presidency. thanks, obama
love bernie, but let's be honest, a lot of his '16 showing was due to anti-hillary resentment which simply wouldn't have been there w/ biden. he'd have lost by a bigger margin given his lack of name recognition. also biden hadn't gone senile yet, so he'd have smoked trump w/ ease
so fuck all this deranged russiagate, jill stein, susan sarandon shit. you can thank obama and hillary for the last 4 years
yesterday was the 103rd anniversary of the october revolution, which became the beacon of hope for worker's liberation throughout the world, setting off a wave of revolutions, strikes and mass social movements. here's a scene from the great film "reds"
I highly recommended watching that. it's about american journalist jack reed who witnessed the october revolution firsthand and became a communist. he wrote the brilliant book "ten days that shook the world", a must-read. here's a PDF of it: ia803108.us.archive.org/24/items/tenda…
the revolution also created a backlash, leading to the murder of heroes of the communist movement like rosa luxemburg by an alliance of fascists, liberals and social democrats, and the imperialist invasion of russia itself, as detailed in this thread:
andrew yang says democrats should listen to the working class more, which for yang means pushing a neoliberal UBI with the explicit aim of gutting and then destroying social programs and the last remnants of the welfare state, as he admitted to dave rubin
listen carefully to what andrew yang says at the end: he knows its unpopular to attack these programs head-on, so instead he's going to trick people into voluntarily abandoning them, and then destroy them, per chomsky's point. yang is a trojan horse neoliberal piece of shit
here's andrew yang getting exposed for the neoliberal grifter hack he is when he admits that he doesn't even support a 15$ minimum wage. remember, florida just overwhelmingly voted for it even though biden lost. yang would have run against it. but "listen to the working class"
since it's election day, here's george carlin perfectly summing up what I think about it. just change "the public" for "asset-owning boomers", as they're the ones who actually call the shots
it's not talked about enough how asset-owning boomers, by virtue of their class interests, are responsible for everything horrible that has happened over the past decades. they gave you hillary, trump, biden, johnson. they are the social basis of reaction
never forget that the active working class overwhelmingly supported corbyn and bernie. it was asset-owning boomers who sank them. they want to see the world burn. it's a death-cult. a deranged, fascistic death-cult
colin kaepernick is trending bc it's his birthday, so here's "woke" queen bae kamala harris saying his taking the knee as part of the broader black lives matter movement was a russian psy-op
also important to remember on colin kaepernick's birthday that both obama and ruth bader ginsburg viciously attacked him when he began taking the knee
and when colin kaepernick wore a shirt depicting malcolm x's historic meeting with castro the entire liberal media viciously savaged and smeared him as some evil violent radical
