Says the guy to can’t read? Lol
He may clearly not be interested in reading, but others also may not be aware of how to find the material
A People’s History of The United States is an incredibly insightful book, especially when it comes to understanding the history of Indian Removal, Chattel Slavery, labor uprisings, as well as the dynamic between the capital owners and the workers/slaves throughout both the colony period and post-1776
You can’t even search YouTube or sail the seven seas?
Must suck, best of luck
Audiobooks are not hard to find

3·6 hours agoThey hated the brits for not being fascist enough. i.e. not sufficient support from them during the initial ethnic cleansing campaigns during the British mandate period and nakba.

4·1 day agoYet the co-opted version by the victims of Israeli occupation and ethnic cleansing, calling for equality and sovereignty, is the one that gets censored and banned 🤔
17·3 days agoHe can read the room and knows that the DNC is doing the exact opposite. Allowing him and other right-wing figures like MTG to lead the conversion when it’s the Democrats that should be.
It’s very dangerous, and goes to show how bad the Zionist rot is in the DNC for both the public and future elections.
Well, three
Is the magic number
46·4 days agoNo, it’s clearly someone lashing out in anger. Fed up with their abysmal material conditions and feeling like there was no viable outlet for meaningful change. Likely feeling completely isolated in both their workplace and community. Warehouses are notorious for their union-busting measures, I doubt this warehouse was an exception.
China is infinitely more of a Democratic Republic than the United States. I’m critical of their lack of robust labor rights and welfare systems. I also don’t live there so not really relevant to the US Labor situation. USSR doesn’t exist, also not relevant here. Even with all that in mind, across the board China still has more labor rights than the US does, which while that doesn’t say much, still goes to show how little of a leg you have to stand on here.
What? Who do you think are running all the labor DSA working groups, putting in the work to salt and pepper work places to rebuild the labor momentum from scratch?
Have you unionized your work place?
It’s so hard not to drink way more caffeine than I should

10·7 days agoRelevant section from A People's History of the United States by Howard Zinn
As [Edmund] Morgan says, masters, “initially at least, perceived slaves in much the same way they had always perceived servants . . . shiftless, irresponsible, unfaithful, ungrateful, dishonest. . . .” And “if freemen with disappointed hopes should make common cause with slaves of desperate hope, the results might be worse than anything Bacon had done.” And so, measures were taken. About the same time that slave codes, involving discipline and punishment, were passed by the Virginia Assembly,
Virginia’s ruling class, having proclaimed that all white men were superior to black, went on to offer their social (but white) inferiors a number of benefits previously denied them. In 1705 a law was passed requiring masters to provide white servants whose indenture time was up with ten bushels of corn, thirty shillings, and a gun, while women servants were to get 15 bushels of corn and forty shillings. Also, the newly freed servants were to get 50 acres of land.
Morgan concludes: “Once the small planter felt less exploited by taxation and began to prosper a little, he became less turbulent, less dangerous, more respectable. He could begin to see his big neighbor not as an extortionist but as a powerful protector of their common interests.”
We see now a complex web of historical threads to ensnare blacks for slavery in America: the desperation of starving settlers, the special helplessness of the displaced African, the powerful incentive of profit for slave trader and planter, the temptation of superior status for poor whites, the elaborate controls against escape and rebellion, the legal and social punishment of black and white collaboration.
Anti-black racism has been a cornerstone of America since Jamestown
Shit, do people who think it’s based to not read find me boring?
Fuck, I’m cooked
