Let's talk about Howard Zinn's "A People's History of the United States"!

I'd read parts of it in the past along side of many other books that cover the same subjects in US history. But I'd never committed to reading it cover-to-cover. Times being as they are, I knew enough of its contents to know that it is can be a foundation for action. I've started again by borrowing the audio version via Libby app...

Still, reassuring to know there are so many people interested in culture that is thinking critically about Oxbridge privilege and how #class plays out in Britain today:

Yes, Walmart execs rake in huge profits by paying their employees a fraction of the value of their labor. So, little, in fact, that they must rely on govt assistance just to survive. Consequently, it is all of us, through our tax dollars, that subsidize and enrich this slimy welfare scammer. But the $6.2B in public assistance quoted in this meme was based on 2014, and the amount they collect today is most likely much higher. https://www.forbes.com/sites/clareoconnor/2014/04/15/report-walmart-workers-cost-taxpayers-6-2-billion-in-public-assistance/

Walmart is the single largest employer in the U.S. (1.6 million employees). The Walton family has a collective estimated net worth of $225 billion. They’re so rich they own two separate NFL teams: the Rams and the Broncos. However, 48% of the children living in Bentonville, Arkansas, where Walmart is headquartered, are living in poverty—higher than any other county in the state. And the city is ranked 15th out of 916 metro areas in terms of income inequality. A 2017 survey of >1,000 Walmart employees found that the company was probably violating the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Family and Medical Leave Act. The New York Times said that the company “routinely refuses to accept doctors’ notes, penalizes workers who need to take care of a sick family member and otherwise punishes employees for lawful absences.” A 2013 report found that the U.S. taxpayers were paying $5,000/year per Walmart employee in govt. assistance.

Welcome back, we now entered the century of open power struggles again, soon new forms of world war may arise and in your workplaces this will be reflected to.

It's all about the conquest of power, no more obfuscation, organize to not get fucked by the bourgeois power struggles so we can conquer what's ours. But make sure to not burn yourself, the class or the movement, we live in dangerous times, even tho sense knowledge might not kick in right now.

Proper Info- and Opsec was never as important in your day-to-day life and everywhere else as now, please be careful out there, study your thread model and help each other, unity is king, and you have to raise the bar. <3

And most importantly study Marxism, the peoples waging war will be inevitable at some point if we try to heal the world, South America had some successful experiences and the people are invincible if we do it right, but do not run ahead of the masses!
