Thanks for posting Bob Avakian's statement. It is very resonant with me. Could we all call for a General Strike on January 21? One day that will live in famy.

Sure we could. Think the AFL-CIA affiliates will pick it up, with their 10% union density rate, more like 6% in the private sector? I think Boeing workers (IAM) just got bought off with some big gains and have returned contented to the relatively lucrative manufacture of weapons of mass destruction for US imperialism.

" mocked her racial identity and family of origin and essentially called her a lazy and stupid whore as well as a communist"

Which isn't true? Putting the last one aside, the best thing that Democrats can do going forward is for their conglomerate media to stop trying to gaslight and remember how to research the truth. Its fallen into an echo-chamber of ignorance, and a refusal to debate the facts.

Case in point, the supposed identity of Harris. I challenge you to view Candace Owens and her episodes 75-85 or so on the genealogical lies given by Harris in her book.

Of course, this is wholesale dismissed, just as democrats dismissed Kennedy's brutal dissection of their quasi-religious saint of pharma Fauci. None of the talking heads are taking anymore of the mRNA injections or wearing a mask, and yet pretend that others are anti-vaccine, when they are just as hesitant now!

The truth is that democrats like myself, millions of us, who like Gabbard and Kennedy, decided to say FU to the Democrats and their lies over the past four years. I mean, the Democratic Party invited Dick and Liz Cheney in as a trade. I think you know who lost. Thank god, imagine Harris with Cheney in charge of the military again!

1. oh no its totally true. I paraphrased harshly but that was totally the meaning of different Trump campaign statements. You missed that, obviously. 2. This is the wrong venue for anything on "the best thing the Democrats can do going forward": this essay is clearly not interested in that and explains why there's no basis for expecting the Dems to fight back against fascism. 3. You are running some classic pink-brown Trumpenleft anti-science BS that marks you as a crossover to the fascist country. You live in that country now. Enjoy. Part of being in that country is thinking or suggesting that communists like me are in with the dismal imperialist and genocidal Dems. It is a distinct possibility that your position on vaccines will help kill millions in coming years. Just watch. I lost a couple friends to the brainworm that's got a hold of you. Dead, killed by their own anti-science crap.

What a strange intersection where you live, between State-sponsored pharma and whatever communism is, but that’s OK. I am on a totally different wave-length than you imagine. I’ve seen the insight into how MMW frequencies are making the change. Wormbrains sounds so juvenile Paul, read his books. He’s the new HHS leading the largest agency in America. Show some respect for your debaters that you’ve at least informed yourself on the man’s writings.

Brainworm is a perfectly apt and respectable metaphor -- and I wasn't even thinking of your dangerous clown when I wrote it. Respect science deniers? Not in this lifetime. You should know that Trump's job offer came with the requirement that Bobby Junior drop his environmentalism. Which reminds: did you see the New Agey health food advocate RFK Jr throwing down McDonalds with Trump and Musk the other day? Enjoy the escalated fascist fast food war on life. And don't come crying here when your new heroes put you on a ventilator and shoot Clorox in your veins!

Nick Estes and Gabriel Rockhill had a good discussion today on Red Nation about how Western Marxism has become irrelevant as a voice for anti-imperialism.
