  • is this what “working on a ceasefire” means to you?

    this is the one image I can post. the other results of the current administration’s policy would get removed for gore. personally, I think if you’ve been “working on a ceasefire” for nearly a year now, and the result is 2000 lb bombs being dropped on tents in a refugee camp, then you’re not really working towards a ceasefire and are instead just lying.

    this is not even mentioning policies on the homeless, immigrants, fracking, military spending, healthcare, all of which are significantly more to the right than they were in 2020. medicare for all isn’t even mentioned any more. dems used to advocate for a path to citizenship for immigrants, that’s gone out the window too.

    Anti-Semitism

    January 12, 1931

    Reply to an Inquiry of the Jewish News Agency in the United States

    In answer to your inquiry :

    National and racial chauvinism is a vestige of the misanthropic customs characteristic of the period of cannibalism. Anti-semitism, as an extreme form of racial chauvinism, is the most dangerous vestige of cannibalism.

    Anti-semitism is of advantage to the exploiters as a lightning conductor that deflects the blows aimed by the working people at capitalism. Anti-semitism is dangerous for the working people as being a false path that leads them off the right road and lands them in the jungle. Hence Communists, as consistent internationalists, cannot but be irreconcilable, sworn enemies of anti-semitism.

    In the U.S.S.R. anti-semitism is punishable with the utmost severity of the law as a phenomenon deeply hostile to the Soviet system. Under U.S.S.R. law active anti-semites are liable to the death penalty.
