  • Do people eat this?

  • Plenty of delicious struggle meals if you get creative, half of "popular" cuisine stems from them. Spanish cocido and tortilla de patata are a few examples of well-loved affordable struggle meals.

  • TikTok claimed bugs blocked anti-ICE videos, Epstein mentions; experts call BS

  • That's when it was under Chinese ownership, remember they had to sell the US Tiktok to a Yankee company

  • YSK that a general strike is one of the most effective ways to push for change. There is a general strike in the works across the US for this Friday.

  • Is there no union or organization locally that you can ask? Protest isn't an individual action, it's a social organized action, so you ideally should get involved with local orgs or your work's union for this

  • Don't you have a student's union or representative? Get informed locally on your rights and possibilities.

  • I'm also in the EU, and I'd much rather get some posts calling for grassroots political action than the constant "elon said something Nazi again".

  • Organizations like the PSL do have lists of demands and are actively building a movement around this to gain momentum. You should check them out :)

  • How does this affect anything?

    It's a momentum thing. one general strike won't change the world, it's the start of a much larger movement to get people to organize in socialist organizations like the PSL (remember socialism has always been fascism's greatest enemy) and in unions. A one-day general strike is not a "perfect is the enemy of good" logic, it's simply materially impossible to get everyone to rally in one week, or one month, or likely one year. It's just a start and a show of strength.

  • There are such thing as medical personnel strikes. Typically, public sectors organize so-called "minimum services", so they leave a minimum of people to stay in the hospitals / trains / buses for obvious reasons, and the rest go out to protest. A day with fewer nurses and doctors may be bad, but fascism is lethal too.

  • There was hope to change the system until they started killing white people, suddenly reform is out of the question. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad you reached that conclusion, but some people did decades ago already, and it's good to follow the advice of those who got to the right conclusion before you

  • George Floyd was famously a movement for Black Lives Matter, and there was no suggestion of general strike

  • Reflecting on past mistakes isn't necessarily demoralizing, realizing that this isnt a new thing is good for future analysis. Hopefully everyone will come out too when the following George Floyd gets inevitably murdered

  • It's barely a science.

  • I commend your appreciation of the field as a science, but you should also acknowledge that 80% of what's currently taught in the academia about economics is just wrong. Supply and demand (unfalsifiable and shitty predictive capabilities compared to the falsifiable and empirically proven labour theory of value) is just one example in the long list of econ-101 bullshit.

    Regardless, as an appreciator of economics, have you checked out econophysics? The study of economics as a thermodynamical system. It's wonderful, with predictive capabilities on for example salary distributions in capitalist economies, Paul Cockshott has a book and a few introductory videos on his YouTube channel

  • It's barely a science.

  • Economics as a field in theory is great. The problem is that it's been hijacked by capitalism, and 90% of the stuff taught in faculties is antiscientific. The founding grounds of neoliberal economics lay in the Austrian school, which prides itself in being non-falsifiable by evidence. Anything stemming from there is a pile of dogshit. Marxian economics and Modern Monetary Theory, on the other hand, have wonderful predictive capabilities and are proper science

  • Yo, you still haven't replied. Give us the evidence of mass repressions against anarchists by the Soviets during the Spanish Civil War.

  • Arguably Jesus is the most well-known ancient figure in the western world (assuming he actually did exist) and pretty much all he did during his life was being nice to people

    Devil's advocate: Plato is probably well-known for being Aristotle's master, and Aristotle is probably well-known because he was the mentor of fucking Alexander the Great. So one could argue that the basis of western philosophy was set by a murderous emperor

  • But think of the landlords!

  • No, it's not real because there's no evidence for it other than "some anticommunist made up some numbers based on hearsay". With employment being guaranteed and housing costing 3% of monthly income, there is essentially no way people could be homeless other than serious mental illness. But sure, go ahead and trust the "Christian Science Monitor" you linked lmfao
