Exactly what I have been preaching for years. If we don't wake up and come together soon to rise up against this monster we have helped create by our apathy, we will be sunk forever. There is a reason that the powers that be keep us in an uproar over this imagined slight or another; it is to keep us divided. They know there are more of us than them, and they know that a "house divided can not stand". And we have sat by and allowed it, all in the name of getting back at the other side. Sticking it to the libs, or crapping on the Repugs. They are the same!!!! Both of our parties, as constituted now, are basically the same. They both only cater to the wealthy and big business because trickle down does in fact work; straight into the politicians pockets!!! Not into yours or mine. We are at a crossroads. We have a very important decision to make. Will we put away our perceived differences and stand up tonthe forces that are really against us; or will we all become just slaves to the "master class" that we have created. It's up to us; but the time is now. Another year or two may be too late. Remember, the wealthy have one thing they actually care about, and that is to have it all!!! That leaves nothing for us. and they don't care! Wake up, tick tock, tick tock!
I grew up in a prosperous world where jobs were plentiful and steady. You could take on debt and be reasonably sure you could pay it back. Not so today. Pay cash for everything, stash away as much "hard times" money as you can.
we need a nationwide strike. generalstrikeus.com sign your strike card to get notice of WHEN.
meanwhile keep supporting PROGRESSIVE candidates for offices up and down the ballots and get to what protests you can, if you can't get in the streets support those who can.
Corbin, I had never read anything that you wrote before this, I only saw you once in an interview on No Kings Day, and I immediately subscribed to your podcast. This article was/is the he best one that you ever wrote.....!!!! BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO.....I should be podcasting soon, the dashboard has me struck, I have solutions......... 🇺🇸THE PEOPLE DECLARE; AMERICA BELONGS TO THE PEOPLE 🇺🇸
We are the rightful owners. The government is our employee. And justice is long overdue.
We, the People of the United States of America, hereby declare that:
• IMPEACH AND CONVICT TRUMP & VANCE!
• The government is not our ruler, but our employee — hired, funded, and directed by us, the sovereign citizens of America.
• For too long, that employee has acted against our will, against our interests, and in service to corporate and financial masters who have bought the law, corrupted the courts, and captured our democracy.
• The fruits of our labor have been stolen, our families buried in debt, our bodies broken by stress, and our dreams deferred — all the while; a corrupted government, protected by corrupted attorneys, enriched its donors, protected its cronies, and silenced its critics.
• We have been denied the most basic human guarantees: Free health, Free education, housing, and dignity — not because we can’t afford them, but because greed & corruption has stood in the way.
Today, We the People Say:
✅ We are the owners of this nation — not banks, not billionaires, not politicians and not the corrupted attorneys.
✅ The American government is our employee, and our Public Servants will serve us, or be fired, or indicted, convicted and imprisoned.
✅ We grant ourselves the bonus we were always owed:
• Free health care, dental care, & prescriptions. No more Insurance companies, no more HMO’s, no more PPO’s, no more deductibles, no more co-pays. No Insurance company employee will lose their job.
• Free education, free childcare for the poorest families from birth until 18 years of age, and open 24/7. This includes universities and technical schools, but no private schools from kindergarten through 12th grade.
• No more Income Taxes if you earn less than $1,000,000.00. No I.R.S. agent will lose their job.
• Unconscionable Debt-free lives.
• A stable home and no property taxes on our personal residences.
• A living wage for a reasonable decent life.
• Time to raise and care for our children, to care for our elders, to care for the children, to care for the poor, to care for the middle class, to protect the rich as well, to care for our sick, and to care for our Great Veterans.
• Equal rights for everyone. We are a secular Nation. You have the Right to worship your religion, or not believe in a religion, this is a must for America to Prevail as a Democratic Country, with a Democratic Government .
• A Woman’s body belongs to the Woman; The Woman makes every decision about her body.
• Control of our own future & spread our happiness and prosperity to the World!
• Like China, America will print our money with no National Debt, & we will retire The Federal Reserve Banking Act. America will print all the money necessary to keep our Democracy free and prosperous and keep the U.S. dollar valuable worldwide.
• If an Immigrant is in the USA illegally, and they have no weapons or violence in their history, we must allow them to apply for asylum or citizenship. For over 70 years our Government allowed and caused the immigration issue to become uncontrollable. Humanely & practicable, this is our best solution. Get caught coming over the border illegally now, means 1 year detention, then immediate deportation and no hearing.
✅ And we say never again will we be ruled by fear, trapped by excessive debt, or sold off to the highest bidder.
This is not revolution — this is our reward for developing a great Democracy and our hard work.
This is not utopia — this is justice.
This is not theory — this is what happens when the people remember they are the sovereign power in a free nation.
We are not asking.
We are not pleading.
We are restoring what is ours.
And we will never give it back.
AMERICA; FOR THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE, OF THE PEOPLE…..
I hope that you are planning to run for office, Corbin Trent. I’ve been following things you have been doing ever since I heard you speak at an event for Bernie at a union hall in Tampa.
The business about the $70K pickup trucks hit home for me during the height of COVID. I was out of work for a few months and spent some time volunteering at a local food bank, distributing boxes of fresh produce to needy people. A lot of the people receiving the food were driving these same expensive trucks--presumably they'd lost their jobs because of the lockdown and had to decide between buying groceries and making the truck payments. It could be argued that they should sell the trucks but this was a suburban/rural area with no reliable public-transit system and they had to get themselves and their kids around somehow. This was a sad state of affairs however one looks at it.
We absolutely need more people talking (i.e., screaming to the rafters) about the vulture capitalists who buy up companies, load with debt, fire employees and then declare bankruptcy. And we now have these same types buying up houses to be expensively rented rather than bought and owned by families, and doing the same with hospitals and nursing homes. Everything is suddenly an "investment" to be milked for maximum profit, while goods and services go down the tubes.
Class Consciousness does not arise out of nothing. You're calling out the symptoms correctly but without more harshly critiquing capitalism as a system and using that to better foment and steer people in the direction of true alternatives then what you're suggesting won't have the solidarity needed to make the final corrections. I asked in your article about Zohran Mamdani why you never once acknowledged that he was part of the DSA (Democratic Socialists of America), an organizations who is pushing for and championing many of the things you're saying we need to do and never got a response. I do not disagree with the basics of what you're suggesting, but instead pointing out that without making this a clear class issue (something you're hinting at but not outright saying) and suggesting class consciousness as the solution, you will forever be left wondering why the people you try to speak to don't rise up and follow through with what you're suggesting. We need to understand that without a clear understanding that it is class war being waged upon us then we will not gain class consciousness. It cannot be subtext anymore, it must be text. It cannot be capitalism anymore, it must be socialism. We are at the crossroads of socialism and fascism, and we cannot afford to be quiet about it or soft spoken any longer.
I've watched "The Big Short" over and over. I am not surprised about any of it. What concerns me most is that nearly everyone refused to see or acknowledge the truth of what was happening until the very end, when the time for fixing anything had long passed.
With a measure of responsibility unmatched by generations before ours, we have entrusted our lives and futures to professionals and experts who convince us that we have to little knowledge or wit to make decisions of importance about the management of society. This is the consequences of our gullibility and laziness.”

We know it’s all about the money!
We know what we want and need in America for all our people, but we need to vote for people that will do our bidding as elected officials. These hand-picked elected officials must agree to follow the written mandate with us, if they want our financial backing, I.É. donations. These candidates, that we will raise money for, must enter into an agreement that they agree to follow our mandate 100%, and if not, they must personally agree that to give us back all our donations, and even filing bankruptcy will not absolve them of this obligation to us. They also cannot switch parties.
My fellow Americans, do you want to keep all the money you earn and pay no personal income taxes if you earn less than $1,000,000 annually?
My fellow Americans, do you want and deserve free National Health care, Dental care and Free Prescriptions, no deductibles, no co pays.
My fellow Americans, do you want to pay no property taxes on your primary residence, ever?
My fellow Americans, do you want your education to be free, paid for by our Federal Government?
Our Federal Government (Our Employees) presently prints the money and allows the Federal Reserve Bankers to get filthy rich by using this the money to loan it to consumers, and these illegal and superfluous actions by the Bankers have created a National Debt of about $40 Trillion Dollars, and out tax dollars pay almost one trillion dollars of interest on America’s own money.
Under our new system Our Federal Government (The U.S. Treasury) will print the money and pay all the above costs outlined above, for all the expenses that have financially burdened us as Americans for a long, long period of time.
Our new financial system necessitates this approach to ease the unconscionable burden that our corrupted Elected officials have ladened us with. Our new system will create jobs, distributes America’s wealth much more evenly, helps everyone equally, even the rich!
We need to fund putting the best Elected Officials into running our Federal Government, for all the people, not just the greedy rich, the Corrupted Elected officials and their corrupt attorneys. Through the ballot box, we will vote in elected officials that we passed the laws to assure that America stays a democracy and has a sound, stable economic system so we all prosper, to where everyone enjoys the fruits of America’s labor.
We must build an organization that has leaders on every street in America, talking to their neighbors how this new concept of how our American government will benefit each one of us, equally. In addition, we will spread the outline of our new dynamic principles called; through Social Media, and by retaining the Influencers that support the views of our mandate called; 🇺🇸 THE PEOPLE DECLARE; AMERICA BELONGS TO THE PEOPLE, and that almost every one of you are in total agreement with this, and should be.
This is a learning experience not only for me, but for each, and every one of you as well.
Independents, Republicans, Democrats and unaffiliated voters can now afford to donate to those candidates that will make this happen in Our America.
LUCKYS – HOW DO WE RESTORE AMERICA TO THE PEOPLE?
Fellow Americans,
We all share a vision for a stronger, fairer America—one where every citizen can thrive. To bring that vision to life, we must support leaders who will genuinely represent us. That means electing candidates who are fully committed to the will of the people—not special interests.
We propose a new standard: candidates we support must agree, in writing, to uphold a clear, people-first mandate. In return for our financial backing, they must commit to following this mandate in full. Should they break this trust, they must return all donations. Even bankruptcy will not release them from this responsibility. Additionally, they must remain true to the party and principles under which they were elected.
How do we elect these honest Americans to become our elected officials? We start by putting My Mandate into everyone’s hand. We do this by having Block Party Committees on every Block in America. They will give everyone a copy of the Mandate, and the public will respond by voting for our choices for the City, County, State and Federal governments. They will do this because America will be there to serve them, and we will serve America.
Now, see yourself:
• No personal income tax—on incomes up to $1,000,000 annually? You will keep all the money you earn—
• Every American will have free, comprehensive healthcare, including dental care and free prescriptions—with no deductibles or co-pays? No more insurance companies in our Health care, as well no more HMO’s or PPO’s. We will have a National Health Care System, funded by the Federal Government, and we just print the money debt free and pay for it.
• No more property taxes on your primary residence. You will never pay property taxes on your primary home again?
• Every citizen will get a free higher education, funded by our Federal Government?
Right now, our government enables private banks, like the Federal Reserve, to profit from the money they create—while our national debt has soared to nearly $40 trillion. This system benefits the wealthy elite, not every day Americans.
Under a new model, our U.S. Treasury—not private banks—would issue the currency to directly fund programs that support all Americans. These reforms would relieve the financial burdens so many Americans face, and these reforms will create jobs, and ensure a more equitable distribution of our nation's wealth.
This isn’t just policy—it’s a movement to reshape the future. Together, we can elect leaders who will serve all the people—not just the powerful few.
Whether you're Independent, Republican, Democrat, or unaffiliated, you have a role in this. With unity, we can fund and elect true, honest public servants—leaders who believe in this vision for Our America.
Linda writes - 'slaves to the master class we have created.' This is millennia-old behavior. And we can say that we 'let it happen.' Sure, true, but not even half the story. We were tricked, bamboozled, extorted, bribed, drugged up, dumbed down, stressed out, extremely mal-nourished and psychologically and financially manipulated - gaslighted - into believing in a system of lies and distortions.
We did not ask for these behaviors. We asked for truth and fairness. We got lies and prejudices, couched as wisdom and ethnic hierarchy. We are, right now, perhaps the stupidest society on the planet, ignorant of what has happened TO us and AROUND us, right in front of our eyes, except our eyes are constantly looking at video screens of one kind or another, or at gypsum walls without windows in lifeless buildings filled with foul, recirculated air filled with toxins.
What has driven this is FEAR. Not necessarily our fear, but the FEAR within the oligarch class. It is very difficult to keep a LIE going for very long. Soon one lie needs another, and then two more to cover those two, and exponentially and with the speed of a lightning bolt, we are buried under mountains of LIES. The oligarchy are LIARS. That, both religiously and societially, is either a sin or a crime. But we all now have to commit crimes because we are addicted to the SYSTEM of LYING given to us by the ubermen. We actually have virtually NO LIBERTY. We are now complicit in our own undoing.
Now let's get REAL. There is immense DENIAL, another kind of LIE, about what is happening in Real Time, on this planet. So many major calamities are happening, at the same time, that DENIAL is the only way to either avoid the truth or have NO CLUE what is TRUE. This is the PTSD of our times, something that tears/wears/drags us down, by the hour now. We are in constant shock. The oligarchy loves this, because they are sadists and perverts and psychopaths. They thrive, because it feeds Their DENIAL, that they have us by the throat, and that they will somehow ESCAPE our fate because they believe they control FATE.
Did I say Ignorant? Hubris, which always involves violence, destroys the human brain's ability to reason. Corbin talks about Bubbles. The HUBRIS BUBBLE is everywhere, covering the sordid realities of the Uberman Class. Bezos is the Grand Duke of Hubris. TFG is gnarled Wizard, the Grand Wizard of Hubris. How will this Grand White Rerun of Hubris occur? Build out? How? Who is left to build anything that will overcome the Ecological Catastrophe now in full TILT????
We are just gaslighting ourselves, bullshitting ourselves, playing some bizarre game of whack-a-mole with Catastrophe. The first thing we must do is just stop LYING to ourselves, and begin to contemplate what is actually going to happen, worldwide. That will take some time, because most of us citizens are totally clueless as to the forces that are bearing down on Homo sapiens sapiens. You cannot grok what you are denying. We are only ONE species. We did not create the planet and its massive ecology. We are tiny, but catastrophically DANGEROUS.
In a matter of weeks we will have ZERO say in our future. Idiots control the Engines of Destruction. They will continue to stumble down the Road to Perdition, a literal fire of death, dragging us with them, while parading around like Caesars in private jets, massive yachts, huge limos, massive mansions and garish weddings and private rockets and goofy spectacles of prurient banality.
Contemplate this for awhile, and see what you come up with. The quantum field of entangled energies is what we are left with. Put that in your diminished tea cup and drink it.
No, we sat by and fid nothing when corporations were called "people" too, we sat by and do nothing while a convicted felon gained admission into the white house, again!!! We have been led, just like sheep to the alter, for over 40 years to believe that there just isn't any money for the poor, they need to get 2 or 3 jobs; but there's always welfare for the wealthy and the corporations. 1st, we have got to get money out of politics. Right now; because of our Supremes, we have about 10 very wealthy people who actually run this country and make all the laws governing it. It's good for them; tax breaks etc; but not for us. And yet, we do nothing. We should be marching in the streets daily!!!! Willing to be locked up, if that's what it takes. For God's sake; if the Saudis can make change happen, certainly we can. But most of us don't even vote. We just gripe and then let whatever happens happen. So, yes; we have allowed this to happen. And we continue to. It may already be too late; probably is. But, of there is a chance that we can claw back a wee bit of democracy then we had better try or forever hold our tongue and be "happy" with our lot.
Clearly explains why so many had lost faith and hope in the system to the extent that they were willing to burn it all down by backing someone like Trump.
... and the establishment Democrats STILL don't get it.
Corbin and other posts are good for describing where we are. Notice what it has meant to this country to be founded on the unpayed labor of millions of kidnapped people from African countries. The ruling class learned when Black enslaved people joined White indentured worker to fight back how to convince the Whites that they were superior. This created the fundamental division that is still with us today. The notion of superiority
of White men over women, gays and everybody else is the biggest stumbling block to
organization.
It would be helpful to all of us to know the history of struggle in this country and other industrialized countries. The backbone of working class power is in the Labor Movement. Organized Labor has led the movement that won Social Security Medicare, the 8 hour work day. control over hours of labor and working conditions.
The unions of the 1930s were led by left wing organizers. That means communists, socialists, anarchists (although that seems to be a contradiction too me). Anarchists have been a big part of progressive movements in Spain and France. Also the Wobblies in this country..
Labor is the sleeping giant. Unions are made up of workers. They have power because they can shut down production, transportation, trade, shipping, health care. Nothing much happens without our labor, organized or not.
By ourselves we like it or leave it.
The bosses and the corporations don't care. Look at the starbucks workers! They showed it can be done. Some of the unions are really standing up. But they thrive on rank and file participation. And yes, credit the DSA for people like AOC and the growing squad of progressives in congress. Those that are not afraid to stand up for Gaza.
Exactly what I have been preaching for years. If we don't wake up and come together soon to rise up against this monster we have helped create by our apathy, we will be sunk forever. There is a reason that the powers that be keep us in an uproar over this imagined slight or another; it is to keep us divided. They know there are more of us than them, and they know that a "house divided can not stand". And we have sat by and allowed it, all in the name of getting back at the other side.

That leaves nothing for us. and they don't care! Wake up, tick tock, tick tock!
I grew up in a prosperous world where jobs were plentiful and steady. You could take on debt and be reasonably sure you could pay it back. Not so today. Pay cash for everything, stash away as much "hard times" money as you can.
They take and take and take and take. When we tell them it’s time to give back, they call us communists (another ploy).
Best summary I've seen.
we need a nationwide strike. generalstrikeus.com sign your strike card to get notice of WHEN.
meanwhile keep supporting PROGRESSIVE candidates for offices up and down the ballots and get to what protests you can, if you can't get in the streets support those who can.

We are the rightful owners. The government is our employee. And justice is long overdue.
We, the People of the United States of America, hereby declare that:
• IMPEACH AND CONVICT TRUMP & VANCE!
• The government is not our ruler, but our employee — hired, funded, and directed by us, the sovereign citizens of America.
• For too long, that employee has acted against our will, against our interests, and in service to corporate and financial masters who have bought the law, corrupted the courts, and captured our democracy.
• The fruits of our labor have been stolen, our families buried in debt, our bodies broken by stress, and our dreams deferred — all the while; a corrupted government, protected by corrupted attorneys, enriched its donors, protected its cronies, and silenced its critics.
• We have been denied the most basic human guarantees: Free health, Free education, housing, and dignity — not because we can’t afford them, but because greed & corruption has stood in the way.

I hope that you are planning to run for office, Corbin Trent. I’ve been following things you have been doing ever since I heard you speak at an event for Bernie at a union hall in Tampa.
The business about the $70K pickup trucks hit home for me during the height of COVID. I was out of work for a few months and spent some time volunteering at a local food bank, distributing boxes of fresh produce to needy people.

Everything is suddenly an "investment" to be milked for maximum profit, while goods and services go down the tubes.
We just drove the party trying to reverse the trickle down trend out of office. I guess they weren't reversing a 45 year trend fast enough.
I don't think they were trying hard enough at all. We've seen more and more privatization along the way with Dems too.
Look at Cuomo's backers. It tells the whole story.
Class Consciousness does not arise out of nothing.

They will do this because America will be there to serve them, and we will serve America.
Now, see yourself:
• No personal income tax—on incomes up to $1,000,000 annually? You will keep all the money you earn—
• Every American will have free, comprehensive healthcare, including dental care and free prescriptions—with no deductibles or co-pays? No more insurance companies in our Health care, as well no more HMO’s or PPO’s. We will have a National Health Care System, funded by the Federal Government, and we just print the money debt free and pay for it.
• No more property taxes on your primary residence. You will never pay property taxes on your primary home again?
• Every citizen will get a free higher education, funded by our Federal Government?
Right now, our government enables private banks, like the Federal Reserve, to profit from the money they create—while our national debt has soared to nearly $40 trillion. This system benefits the wealthy elite, not every day Americans.
Under a new model, our U.S. Treasury—not private banks—would issue the currency to directly fund programs that support all Americans. These reforms would relieve the financial burdens so many Americans face, and these reforms will create jobs, and ensure a more equitable distribution of our nation's wealth.
This isn’t just policy—it’s a movement to reshape the future. Together, we can elect leaders who will serve all the people—not just the powerful few.
Whether you're Independent, Republican, Democrat, or unaffiliated, you have a role in this. With unity, we can fund and elect true, honest public servants—leaders who believe in this vision for Our America.
Let’s do this. Together.
Linda writes - 'slaves to the master class we have created.' This is millennia-old behavior. And we can say that we 'let it happen.' Sure, true, but not even half the story. We were tricked, bamboozled, extorted, bribed, drugged up, dumbed down, stressed out, extremely mal-nourished and psychologically and financially manipulated - gaslighted - into believing in a system of lies and distortions.
We did not ask for these behaviors. We asked for truth and fairness. We got lies and prejudices, couched as wisdom and ethnic hierarchy. We are, right now, perhaps the stupidest society on the planet, ignorant of what has happened TO us and AROUND us, right in front of our eyes, except our eyes are constantly looking at video screens of one kind or another, or at gypsum walls without windows in lifeless buildings filled with foul, recirculated air filled with toxins.
What has driven this is FEAR. Not necessarily our fear, but the FEAR within the oligarch class. It is very difficult to keep a LIE going for very long. Soon one lie needs another, and then two more to cover those two, and exponentially and with the speed of a lightning bolt, we are buried under mountains of LIES. The oligarchy are LIARS. That, both religiously and societially, is either a sin or a crime. But we all now have to commit crimes because we are addicted to the SYSTEM of LYING given to us by the ubermen. We actually have virtually NO LIBERTY. We are now complicit in our own undoing.
Now let's get REAL. There is immense DENIAL, another kind of LIE, about what is happening in Real Time, on this planet. So many major calamities are happening, at the same time, that DENIAL is the only way to either avoid the truth or have NO CLUE what is TRUE. This is the PTSD of our times, something that tears/wears/drags us down, by the hour now. We are in constant shock. The oligarchy loves this, because they are sadists and perverts and psychopaths. They thrive, because it feeds Their DENIAL, that they have us by the throat, and that they will somehow ESCAPE our fate because they believe they control FATE.
Did I say Ignorant? Hubris, which always involves violence, destroys the human brain's ability to reason. Corbin talks about Bubbles. The HUBRIS BUBBLE is everywhere, covering the sordid realities of the Uberman Class. Bezos is the Grand Duke of Hubris. TFG is gnarled Wizard, the Grand Wizard of Hubris. How will this Grand White Rerun of Hubris occur? Build out? How? Who is left to build anything that will overcome the Ecological Catastrophe now in full TILT????
We are just gaslighting ourselves, bullshitting ourselves, playing some bizarre game of whack-a-mole with Catastrophe. The first thing we must do is just stop LYING to ourselves, and begin to contemplate what is actually going to happen, worldwide. That will take some time, because most of us citizens are totally clueless as to the forces that are bearing down on Homo sapiens sapiens. You cannot grok what you are denying. We are only ONE species. We did not create the planet and its massive ecology. We are tiny, but catastrophically DANGEROUS.
In a matter of weeks we will have ZERO say in our future. Idiots control the Engines of Destruction. They will continue to stumble down the Road to Perdition, a literal fire of death, dragging us with them, while parading around like Caesars in private jets, massive yachts, huge limos, massive mansions and garish weddings and private rockets and goofy spectacles of prurient banality.
Contemplate this for awhile, and see what you come up with. The quantum field of entangled energies is what we are left with. Put that in your diminished tea cup and drink it.
No, we sat by and fid nothing when corporations were called "people" too, we sat by and do nothing while a convicted felon gained admission into the white house, again!!! We have been led, just like sheep to the alter, for over 40 years to believe that there just isn't any money for the poor, they need to get 2 or 3 jobs; but there's always welfare for the wealthy and the corporations. 1st, we have got to get money out of politics. Right now; because of our Supremes, we have about 10 very wealthy people who actually run this country and make all the laws governing it. It's good for them; tax breaks etc; but not for us. And yet, we do nothing. We should be marching in the streets daily!!!! Willing to be locked up, if that's what it takes. For God's sake; if the Saudis can make change happen, certainly we can. But most of us don't even vote. We just gripe and then let whatever happens happen. So, yes; we have allowed this to happen. And we continue to. It may already be too late; probably is. But, of there is a chance that we can claw back a wee bit of democracy then we had better try or forever hold our tongue and be "happy" with our lot.
Clearly explains why so many had lost faith and hope in the system to the extent that they were willing to burn it all down by backing someone like Trump.
... and the establishment Democrats STILL don't get it.
Corbin and other posts are good for describing where we are. Notice what it has meant to this country to be founded on the unpayed labor of millions of kidnapped people from African countries. The ruling class learned when Black enslaved people joined White indentured worker to fight back how to convince the Whites that they were superior. This created the fundamental division that is still with us today. The notion of superiority
of White men over women, gays and everybody else is the biggest stumbling block to
organization.
It would be helpful to all of us to know the history of struggle in this country and other industrialized countries. The backbone of working class power is in the Labor Movement. Organized Labor has led the movement that won Social Security Medicare, the 8 hour work day. control over hours of labor and working conditions.
The unions of the 1930s were led by left wing organizers. That means communists, socialists, anarchists (although that seems to be a contradiction too me). Anarchists have been a big part of progressive movements in Spain and France. Also the Wobblies in this country..
Labor is the sleeping giant. Unions are made up of workers. They have power because they can shut down production, transportation, trade, shipping, health care. Nothing much happens without our labor, organized or not.
By ourselves we like it or leave it.
The bosses and the corporations don't care. Look at the starbucks workers! They showed it can be done. Some of the unions are really standing up. But they thrive on rank and file participation. And yes, credit the DSA for people like AOC and the growing squad of progressives in congress. Those that are not afraid to stand up for Gaza.
