Primarily referring to Germany and Italy’s descent into fascism, and we’re currently seeing this happen in France, and now in the US. These countries only see a shift to the left with an external force, like Scandinavian states giving concessions to the working class when the nearby USSR posed the threat of a good example — and by extension, the threat of a working class revolution; of course, these concessions are gradually being taken away now.
Imperial core countries refers to colonizer countries that now control financial institutions like the IMF and World Bank, and depend on the continued exploitation of former colonies.
I specify liberal democracies in imperial core countries because we have seen limited successes for the left outside it. Like Allende coming to power in Chile (before being overthrown in a US-backed coup 2 years later), or now Lula and Claudia coming to power in Brazil and Mexico.
He’s right. In a declining capitalist state like the current US, workers want change. In the absence of a genuine working class party that correctly blames capitalism and the capitalist class for a revolution, you get a “radical” capitalist-funded party that at least points the blame at someone — marginalized people.
The dems only offer to preserve the status quo, and no one fucking wants the status quo.
Get organized. Liberal democracies in the imperial core historically always slide to fascism.

Who could’ve guessed that appealing to far-right republicans — who are going to vote republican anyway — wouldn’t be a winning strategy?
Shame we won’t get to see elon malding

Forget affording public healthcare. Universal healthcare for all is actually estimated to decrease the overall healthcare spending for the country — problem is it would also decrease corporate profits.
When it’s directed at capitalists and corporations at least
This works?
It’s had a nazi government since the 2014 coup
Love how hard they’re trying to portray this as a bad thing lmao
Less so that they disagree and more so that it would damage their propaganda potential too much
It’s very much a blockade in practice since it prevents the vast majority of companies of any country from trading with Cuba.
There are very few companies that would survive competition by sacrificing trade with the nearby US to trade with Cuba instead the way the “embargo” forces them to.
