Don’t Just Vote for Socialists, Vote for ECO-Socialists
I am a strong supporter of the DSA’s current electoral platform, and I say that as someone who is beyond disilluisioned with electoralism. However, the DSA’s current platform for getting as many socialists as possible elected to public office has been nothing but good for the organization and for socialism. This platform of pushing forContinue reading “Don’t Just Vote for Socialists, Vote for ECO-Socialists”
Avoid the “Self Care” Trap
Self care is not the same thing as self indulgence.
We Are Not The Socialists We Love: A Further Case Against Personality Cults.
Personality cults lead to sectarianism, sectarianism prevents progress. If we do not adapt our doctrine then leftists risk losing everything.
Socialists, Communists, Anarchists of the World, PUT OUT THAT LIGHT!
We are leftists, we are not talking points to be used as fodder for pundits who are out of touch with the realities of living in our modern, vampiric economy. We know what we are and what we are not and we cannot, must not, let those outside of our ranks be the ones who define us.
People Can Be Products, A Socialist Poem
People Can Be Products Who are we but products? Products of our time and place? Dare what questions are such to be asked? Asked and then asked again!

It’s all well and good to say, “Smash the system!” I support and agree with that statement whole heartedly. However if we are not offering a genuine alternative to the status quo and the systems we are attacking then Leftists are screwing over ourselves by weakening our argument and, more importantly, we are screwing over the people we areContinue reading “Leftists, You Don’t Need to Have All The Answers, But You Need to Have Some Answers”
Commodity, You Are Not Your Surplus Value (a Socialist poem about humanity)
Commodity Everything from the human spirit to dignity has become a commodity. Oceans boil, Flowers wilt, And blood is spilled everywhere. We hold the wrong people to the worst scrutiny, and we continue to masterbate ourselves with patriotism. Commodities, Our time, Our minds and training, Just means to our bosses ends, only because they haveContinue reading “Commodity, You Are Not Your Surplus Value (a Socialist poem about humanity)”
My case for #Bernie2020
The largest demographic of voters in the U.S. are registered independents. The most popular politician with independents is not Joe Biden nor any other democrat, it’s Bernie Sanders. Biden, Warren, and Harris are weak. Bernie is the only politician who can win over independent voters in 2020. Harris is too much of a cop toContinue reading “My case for #Bernie2020”
There is no… | A socialist poem about the class war and liberty
There is no… There is no socialism without democracy. There is no liberation without inclusivity. There is no peace while there is class war. There is no dignity while there is no privacy. There is no freedom without change. There is no hope without the people.
