People online: “Poor little Joe Biden! People are being so mean to him! This is elder abuse.” Decomposition gases escaping Joe Biden’s rotting corpse through his throat: “Launch the nukes!”

“If only people had voted for Hillary!” I say as I pile bodies onto the corpse cart on my daily route. “If only people had voted for Hillary!” the people shout back at me, bringing out their dead. “No tip today, Isaac?” I ask my friend. “Ah, if only people had voted for Hillary!” he shrugs.

The V.I. in Lenin’s name stood for Vlad the Impaler. Not too many people know this, simply because it happens to be incorrect.

Kicking hundreds of thousands of people out of their homes, denying millions of their descendants the right to return, doing everything you can to defund and discredit refugee organizations aiding them—and then crying “Where are we supposed to go??” is Zionism in a nutshell.

No one can say they didn’t know exactly what this was. Everyone knows this is genocide and everyone knows that everyone knows. It’s all dangerously out in the open. The only way to accept this is to see Palestinians as less than human. No peace or rest for such people ever again.

“Pitching tents in public places is violence” is an interesting line of reasoning to follow as climate change and rising rents displace more people, as cities grow increasingly aggressive about criminalizing their homeless populations, and as more climate and war refugees arrive.

If two people are running for president and one of them promises to kill you first and the other one promises to kill you last, you should make sure that election doesn’t happen.

The present order must be abolished as soon as possible if we’re to prevent literally billions of coldblooded murders by our ecofascist ruling class. Yesterday would already be too late for so many millions. It’s socialism or barbarism, life or death—there’s no time to waste in organizing ourselves!

The future of horrors we’ve all seen in our nightmares is already creeping in on all sides, and it has already taken too many of us. But they’re planning on scaling up the miseries of our present society by orders of magnitude, a perverse inversion of the myth of progress. It’s here.

Apart from that, our rulers despise us and believe that suffering is good for us, either because it will reform us or because we simply deserve it. They could probably shore up their control with some social democratic spending—but since they don’t think they need to, they don’t.

All the money being poured into prisons and concentration camps, into destroying homeless encampments and funding police brutality, could be used to support people and avoid these problems in the first place—but the risk of homelessness and prison ensures our docility.

Caging refugee families, caging unhoused people who couldn’t make skyrocketing rent, caging millions of human beings for illegitimate reasons—carcerality and mass death are the ruling class’ plan for the coming decades of climate catastrophe and economic ruin. We don’t have long.

‪US electoral politics is an intra-capitalist class “conflict” that will crumble as soon as a more united front is needed to defend the system they all benefit from, revealing the true nature of our government: the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie. ‬

The election matters to factions of the capitalist class with interests in certain sectors of the economy being favored with regard to subsidies, government contracts and taxation schemes. If you’re not a capitalist, the election decides only the color of your oppressor’s jersey.

What matters is who has power, not the formal structure of power as it presents itself to the public it rules over. The bourgeoisie has the power to overturn the board if they’re losing the game and dictate new rules. That’s our goal: taking POWER. Not winning by their rules.

Criticizing the “two-party system/duopoly” is a red herring mistaking effect for cause. We live, first and foremost, under the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie. If it suited capitalists to have three parties, or one party, or no parties, they would have it! That’s not the problem.

What climate change we’re already locked in for will necessitate a complete reshuffling of humanity. Billions of people are now living in places that will either be underwater or too hot to survive in the coming decades. We don’t have long—we MUST change how migrants are treated.

I talked about this on Episode 1 of @losingourmindspod.bsky.social (and will be talking about it a lot more): that how we treat migrants will be the defining social issue of the 21st century, along with, relatedly, the size and treatment of our unhoused and imprisoned populations.
