Anarchists Not Siding With the Bourgeois Imperial Compradors Challenge (Impossible)

I’ve noticed that they are not all capitalist oligarchies, actually, though most currently are.

We would also like to ultimately abolish the state, though you and I might not mean precisely the same thing by “state.”

Do people really think the US state and its monopoly on violence is going to collapse in the foreseeable future?

The US has been run by oligarchs since its formation as a bourgeois state after its bourgeois revolution (previously). That this is more nakedly obvious this week than last doesn’t really change that fact.

The conspiracy theory debunkers are the real conspiracy theorists!

• Matt Taibbi: Move Over, Jayson Blair: Meet Hamilton 68, the New King of Media Fraud The Twitter Files reveal that one of the most common news sources of the Trump era was a scam, making ordinary American political conversations look like Russian spywork
• Jacobin: Why the Twitter Files Are in Fact a Big Deal On the Left, there’s been a temptation to dismiss the revelations about Twitter’s internal censorship system that have emerged from the so-called Twitter Files project. But that would be a mistake: the news is important and the details are alarming.

Just keep believing increasingly unhinged BlueAnon conspiracy theories. The US is just a smol bean fragile liberal democracy being mind controlled by the bad, mean, no good authoritarian foreign masterminds. Previously.

If you want to talk about software that isn’t open source, there are plenty of other communities, and there’s nothing stopping you from starting new communities.

I don’t think this person is looking to hack on, or even host their own service. I think they’re looking for a not very expensive turnkey SaaS.

I don’t know, will you ever get tired of US disinformation about Chinese local & federal government’s responses to the CIA-backed terrorist attacks in Xinjiang?

We take a hard line on open source in !opensource@lemmy.ml. “Source available” software won’t do.

I don’t see a license? Please provide evidence or delete the post.

Individuals with net assets of 100 million or more of a currency are commonly termed centimillionaires, or more rarely hectomillionaires.

Not books, but three contemporary articles on fascism by Gabriel Rockhill:

• Fascism: Now You See It, Now You Don’t!
• Liberalism and Fascism: Partners in Crime
• The U.S. Did Not Defeat Fascism in WWII, It Discretely Internationalized It

The Parenti chapter on fascism is available onlline: https://en.prolewiki.org/wiki/Library:Blackshirts_and_Reds#Rational_Fascism

stinky sheets of blurry purple letters

Hey now, the fresh ones smelled pretty good!

Sesame Street taught me phonics.

Spez is probably a centimillionaire, and Sam Altman supposedly has a 9% stake in Reddit. It’s a big club, and you ain’t in it.

Who knows what this pseudo-event is about, other than shoving oligarchs in my face again. Fuck all these fuckers.

What if I told you that our federal taxes don’t go toward food stamps at all, and in fact pay for nothing?
