October 10, 2019The Democrats Don’t Love All Whistleblowers
As the Democrats in Congress prepare to impeach Trump, they are praising the CIA whistleblower as a hero. But these same politicians have viciously persecuted whistleblowers who dared to expose the crimes of U.S. imperialism. Whistleblowers deserve our unreserved support irrespective of the magnitude of their leaks. Freedom and protection for all whistleblowers!

August 19, 2019Capitalism Cannot Stop Mass Shootings
Mass shootings are directly linked to capitalist alienation, misogyny and racism. Only socialism can bring people together to reject the lies of capitalism and the many ills that it creates.

August 13, 2019“Going Postal”: Neoliberalism and Mass Shootings
Recent weeks have seen a wave of mass shootings, inspired in no small part by Trump’s racist scapegoating. Despite politicians’ attempts to blame everything from mental illness to video games, the fault ultimately lies with capitalism and its propensity towards constant violence.
