Exactly right: socialism is amazing because it gives us the scientific tools to evaluate the best analysis of history, of economy, of strategies and of action with the goal of making peoples’ lives better. Socialism is good because socialism works to this end, and not because it’s a set of strict definitions.

The number of christians who don’t understand the whole sacrifice for the good of all mankind part of the jesus story is really odd.

I got banned twice and decided to just give up.

The other day I started a book about U.S. neoliberalism that actually recognized how the mere existence of the Soviet Union led to better conditions for workers in the U.S., and how since its fall the U.S. has tightened the noose on the working class. All right! Let’s keep reading! Two pages later he said something like “This is not to imply that I’m defending communism, which is a reprehensible form of tyranny . . .” I groaned, put down the book, and googled the author to see how much more dipshittery I could expect. Lo and behold, he had a friendly interview about the book with Jacobin, where for some reason they didn’t ask him, “Hey, if communism was a reprehensible form of tyranny, what do you call a system that, absent a countervailing power on the other side of the world, insists on making conditions worse for the vast majority of its population?”

A super political action committee created to support Donald Trump is preparing to hold a big-money fundraiser at the president’s Virginia golf course that will charge attendees $1 million each. As reported by NBC News, MAGA, Inc. will host the $1 million-per-plate event at the Trump National Golf Club Washington DC on the day before the president is set to host Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) events at the White House as part of his 80th birthday celebration. “The fundraiser is at least the sixth such $1 million-per-person event held by Trump-aligned groups for the midterm elections,” reported NBC News. “Republicans at nearly all levels hold a significant midterm cash advantage over Democrats, who expect to be outpaced financially in many key House and Senate races.” Lisa Gilbert, co-president of Public Citizen, linked the ritzy fundraiser to Trump’s economic policies that have primarily benefited the wealthiest Americans at the expense of the working class. “The comingling of 250th anniversary events, Trump’s UFC fight, and a $1 million per-plate fundraiser on Trump’s own birthday,” Gilbert said, “gives corporate interests and wealthy donors not just an ultimate fight—but the ultimate opportunity to pay tribute to the president. Rather than celebrate our nation’s anniversary in the bipartisan manner directed by Congress, the Trump administration has directed public money and public property to politicized events.” “Major corporations, such as Chevron, Exxon, MasterCard, and many more,” Gilbert added, “should be ashamed to be associated with this corrupt spectacle.” The fundraiser comes as a recent study from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York showed food insecurity in the US has reached its highest levels since the Covid-19 pandemic. The New York Fed researchers said their study found “a remarkable increase in food insecurity, particularly among lower-educated and lower-income households and households with young children,” as well as “a contemporaneous increase in pessimism among the same groups, along with a sharp decline in job-finding expectations.” The researchers noted that “while many households are doing fine and economic activity overall has been expanding at a solid pace,” there are large numbers of people “facing high levels of economic insecurity and financial strain,” which has resulted in plunging overall consumer sentiment.

Football governing body Fifa has removed Somali referee Omar Abdulkadir Artan from the 2026 World Cup officiating roster after American authorities denied him entry into the country, ending what would have been the first World Cup finals appearance by a Somali match official. Artan, the Confederation of African Football’s men’s referee of the year in 2025, was barred from entering the US at Miami International Airport and is currently in Turkey. US immigration authorities have not publicly provided a reason for the decision. In a statement, Fifa said Artan would be unable to participate in the tournament after discussions with US authorities.
It feels like the world has forgotten us. 💔 We are struggling every day to find food and basic needs for our family.

I feel like the contrast of these posts really exemplify it. I don’t fucking care about the white house ufc arena I just don’t fucking care. No one is going to make me care about such a frivilous fucking spectacle. I’m so tired

When choosing a pest-control company, always go with the one that has the best otome game.
I want the Thai food I just ordered, should be here in a moment. But as for you and me, we’re two people with conflicting opinions on the word “removed.” Both of us are presumably leftist and our ballots would likely be identical. Good talk. EDIT: hell yeah

They suck and are bad, but isolate themselves to the sucking and being bad zone. You got vanned for not sucking or being bad. What’s the issue here?

FYI if anyone hasn’t seen, they are making new episodes of Don’t Hug Me I’m Scared on dropout.tv . I haven’t watched it, so I couldn’t say if it’s as good, but might be worth checking out!

Yea I feel like it could be a bit. Greymarket is also kinda expensive. Oooh that’s intriguing, thank you. Most of what I’ve heard was just horny and makes you sleep good. So it’s good to know it helps in other ways because those two effects aren’t that appealing to me (although breast growth is)

The bikeway on either side of the housing area has more space on each side of the bikeway before reaching a building, so I’d expect bicyclists to use it as something of a highway, but there’s no great way to route around the houses here. There’s a rail line on one side, but the other direction, there’s a vaguely-parallel bikeway maybe four blocks over, so some people can probably use that.

Good morning, fellow sobernauts, IWNDWYT, 😁! We may be anonymous strangers on the internet, but we have one thing in common. We may be a world apart, but we’re here together! Welcome to the 24 hour pledge! I’m pledging myself to not drinking today, and invite you to do the same. Maybe you’re new to c/stop drinking and have a hard time deciding what to do next. Maybe you’re like me and feel you need a daily commitment or maybe you’ve been sober for a long time and want to inspire others. It doesn’t matter if you’re still hung over from a three day bender or been sober for years, if you just woke up or have already completed a sober day. For the next 24 hours, let’s not drink alcohol!
It’s a stablecoin used by the POTUS to accept bribes. I don’t see it collapsing while he’s in office Might as well be USD, since Trump would use the full might of the US government to ensure he can continue enriching himself
HELLO 😨
