Liz, a nurse from LA says: "All working class people from the US must unite w/ our Ukrainian and Russian brothers & sisters. We have to build a working class #antiwar movement because this drive to war w/ Russia is a very dangerous policy. They are taking us to the edge."

The new anti-war movement must, above all, be international, mobilizing the vast power of the working class in a unified global struggle against imperialism.

Мы должны противостоять империализму США-НАТО, не поддерживая при этом российский милитаризм.

Война была спровоцирована антагонистическими высказываниями официальных лиц США в последние несколько месяцев, важной материальной поддержкой США фашистских сил и постоянным расширением НАТО на восток в сторону России после распада СССР в 1991 году.

Against the stupefying propaganda of capitalist media, WSWS spoke to autoworkers this week about political/historical context of the war in Ukraine. As this worker says, to understand the war, "you have to understand economics, and understand the world." #SpeakOutAgainstWW3

“I totally agree with workers getting together because we have a common interest. From what I see, the Russian people don't really support the war. There's a disinformation campaign going on.”

The cost in human lives is the product of a very deliberate policy. — David North. All politics and all policy are in the end about social and economic interests. — David North

@davidnorthWSWS: It is a lie “that the consequences of this pandemic could not have been foreseen, that no one knew it was coming, and that – once it began – no one knew what had to be done to stop it.”
@DavidNorthWSWS Where are we now, as we approach the end of the second year of the pandemic?
At the end of the first year of the pandemic – that is, as of December 31, 2020 – the official global death toll stood at just under 1,950,000 people.
As of yesterday, with more than two months left before the end of the 2021, the total official death toll stood at 4,958,947.

In calling attention to the fact that the WSWS’s coverage of the pandemic dates back to January 2020, it is not for the purpose of boasting. -- @DavidNorthWSWS
@DavidNorthWSWS Rather, it is to refute the lie – perhaps the most pernicious of the tidal wave of lies that have flowed from governments and the media –
@DavidNorthWSWS that the consequences of this pandemic could not have been foreseen, that no one knew it was coming, and that – once it began – no one knew what had to be done to stop it.

The lessons of the war of annihilation against the Soviet Union are of contemporary relevance. The same contradictions of world capitalism threaten to plunge the world into the inferno of a third world war. #22июня #мыпомним

The main concern of this lecture is not the specific conflicts and events that triggered World War II, but rather the war’s more general causes.

"Here we encounter a terrible problem: For all that has been said and written about the #Holocaust, it remains a strangely obscure event"
