The union’s strike manual explicitly instructs employees in other bargaining units—including adjuncts, building services, food service workers—to cross the picket lines under no-strike clauses in their contracts. “No one should say anything negative about this crossing,” it says.

The administration is laying the basis for declaring the results of the November 3 election fraudulent, for throwing out ballots in states it does not control, and for treating any outcome it rejects as the product of “alien” voting. wsws.org/en/articles/2026/10…

Oppose the Trump administration’s drive to strip Ilhan Omar of citizenship!

Citizenship is being made vulnerable to a government determined to punish opposition.

Henri de Saint-Simon (1760) – Utopian socialist, “what interests him first, and above all other things, is the lot of the class that is the most numerous and most poor…To recognize the French Revolution as a class war …was, in the year 1802, a most pregnant discovery.” (Engels)

If this were happening in the streets of Moscow, Beijing or Tehran, there would be wall to wall, 24/7 news coverage, and the talking heads of the capitalist press would be calling for the leaders to step down. The media would pick a colour, and call it a "revolution."

French youth protests grow as political radicalization spreads

Ahead of the October 17 day of action, which grew out of calls on social media for a revival of the “yellow vest” protest over purchasing power and social inequality, blockades are intensifying.

The working class must take hold of AI technologies as it must take hold of the factories, the mines, the data centers, and the banks, and wrest them from the class that has monopolized them.
