"The most general statement of our politics at the present time would be that we are actively committed to struggling against racial, sexual, heterosexual, and class oppression, and see as our particular task the development of integrated analysis and practice based upon the fact that the major systems of oppression are interlocking." -- Combahee River Collective, a Black feminist collective. #BlackLivesMatter theanarchistlibrary.org/librar

Need a pulse on the Seattle housing market?

This news article follows a Black woman who has bad credit and can't find ANYONE in Seattle to rent to her.

She makes $75k and is WA State Social Worker and is homeless herself.

Absolutely insane out here that having a government job isn't enough for landlords.

Why the fuck is a credit score part of gating access to basic human needs?!

Imagine being a wealthy CEO who spends his time claiming women belong in the kitchen and should not have control of their own bodies. Or that same CEO claiming black lives do not matter. That same CEO claiming love is only love between a man and woman. That same CEO saying, both LGBTQ+ and trans folk suffer from mental illness. Furthermore, claiming that COVID was a hoax, vaccines kill people, and is a firm, Donald Trump supporter.

You probably think, I am talking about Elon Musk, and you likely support the idea of Tesla going bankrupt, as not to support a Nazi. But who I am actually describing is Brendan Eich, the founder and CEO of Brave Browser, but when you tell people that is the case, people will argue "that is different". 🙄

European fascism was and has always been a response to the siren call of USA plantation #slaveocracy, #ManifestDestiny and post-Civil War #JimCrow. if capitalists have to pick between enriching themselves thru slavery or the labor of free citizens, they will go with slavery.

Karl Marx told us as much back in 1861:
libcom.org/library/american-ci

do you get why #BlackLivesMatter is the most #antifa shit you can say in USA?

#MAGA is the negrofication of the white middle classes.

deal with it.

text from Karl Marx - The American Civil War, as found at libcom.org: In the Northern states, where Negro slavery is in practice unworkable, the white working class would gradually be forced down to the level of helotry. This would fully accord with the loudly proclaimed principle that only certain races are capable of freedom, and as the actual labour is the lot of the Negro in the South, so in the North it is the lot of the German and the Irishman, or their direct descendants. The present struggle between the South and North is, therefore, nothing but a struggle between two social systems, the system of slavery and the system of free labour. The struggle has broken out because the two systems can no longer live peacefully side by side on the North American continent. It can only be ended by the victory of one system or the other. If the border states, the disputed areas in which the two systems have hitherto contended for domination, are a thorn in the flesh of the South, there can, on the other hand, be no mistake that, in the course of the war up to now, they have constituted the chief weakness of the North.

Update on this story. Residents have formed an armed anti-fascist community watch program. Folks say the KKK and other neo-nazi groups continue to target the are with threatening fliers and online intimidation.

Meanwhile local prosecutors say they are now investigating the initial armed neo-Nazi march.

This is what happens when you give #Fascists an inch!!!

"Unlike the governors of states that enjoy congressional representation, the mayor of a city without any voice in Congress does not have much leverage with a transactional President. But, #MayorBowser has signaled willingness to play a little ball with Trump this time around, saying in the conference that the city has 'bigger fish to fry' than the #BlackLivesMatter mural outside the White House, which she has signaled she will paint over. Bowser also ordered a #homeless encampment cleared Thursday after #Trump complained about such places online and she had a phone call with the administration. In what appears to be compensation for such tactical retreats, Trump appears to have scaled back plans for an executive order that would take aim at DC."

#OpenAI is teaching #ChatGPT to spew out #MAGA loyalty signals like ”All lives matter” in response to #BlackLivesMatter. ”Avoiding moral authority” in questions like Palestine. Teaching it that ”it’s a complicated question” is the wrong answer to nonsense constructions aimed to discredit a minority

USA is the wrong place to build a machine that will steer the intellectual development of the coming human race

It’ll come on the side of soft eugenics & false equivalencies
