Some people will tell you it's "too radical" or "too extreme" to say capitalism relies on hurting workers.
But what about when a millionaire CEO says it?
That's exactly what Tim Gurner said when he advocated for more unemployment and more economic pain.

Marx: "The less you eat, drink and read books; the less you go to the theatre, the dance hall, the public house; the less you think, love, theorize, sing, paint ... etc., the more you save—the greater becomes your treasure which neither moths nor dust will devour—your capital. 1/

Shawn Fain, president of @UAW, is changing what it means to be a fighting union.
Speaking to thousands of autoworkers, he said: "Billionaires, in my opinion, don't have a right to exist."

I hate doing this, but I am desperate for sales, as currently a few hundred pounds short of being able to cover my bills this month.
Please, if you’ve ever thought about buying from me, now would be a great time. Even if all you can do is retweet this, I’d be so grateful (1/2)

Risk. Risk is reading an entire trilogy of books, writing a pilot, outlining a 5 yr arc, pitching the project, only to sell it & be immediately let go by the buyer because they “want to go in another direction” & receiving nothing but a small script fee over the course of 3 yrs.

If you're morally outraged by RFK Jr, then supporting Biden makes you a hypocrite.
Biden is responsible for death, destruction, suffering, and starvation across the globe. From Afghanistan to Yemen to his brutal migrant policies. If that doesn't bother you, rethink your values.

If you talk about inequality when you are poor, they call you bitter. If you talk about inequality when you are rich, they call you a hypocrite. I think they just don't want us talking about inequality.

When that Hollywood exec said they want to starve workers into homelessness, they made a big mistake: they said it out loud.
The violence of poverty, evictions, and hunger always run rampant.
Normally its vague, systemic, but that exec showed it's also deliberate human choice.

Tolkien states that the Shire is “more or less a Warwickshire village of about the period of the Diamond Jubilee.”The Diamond Jubilee was in 1897. Montague Redgrave invented a spring-loaded “bagatelle” machine in 1869, similar to modern pinball machines, which means
