what a bunch of babies

I know, right. Its a brilliant piece of entrapment for them (even if it was totally unintentional).

Easily one of the dumbest things anyone has ever said, like I honestly can’t comprehend how fucking stupid this is. Are you trolling or are you legit serious?

Rick Perry called it “an accident”. Jeb Bush and Rudy Giuliani claimed that no one knew his motive (after everyone knew his motive). Fox News and Rick Santorum initially labeled it as an “attack on faith”. And of course, and bunch of outlets played the “mental illness” card.

To any people out there who doubt that America is almost as racist now as it was during the times of slavery, I highly recommend stepping out of your comfort zone and picking up this book. As a white guy, I’ve always hated the focus on race in this country, but I never knew how deeply-rooted racism was in our…

With white people bending over backwards to make excuses for a dude that literally said he killed black people because he was a racist, we have a looong way to go.

Pretty much the way Catholic institutions are told to invest. They can’t invest in tobacco companies, weapons manufaturers, anything that makes money off of the killing of people. It has been so for as long as I can remember.

Technically, we’ve never had anything like true/Marxist Communism, because it was meant to be a post-Capitalist, post-nationalist phase of economic development. We haven’t actually gotten to the point where the entire world could form one economy/one world government. Marx didn’t believe you could have Communism in…

This is us. This is the black community and this is the history We collectively share. We endure,forgive and continue to push forward. We are angry but more than anything we are hurt. We are hurt that we have to continue to beg for equality. We are hurt that progress is met with immediate disdain and a movement…

It’s not a No True Scotsman fallacy if someone can determine that a chihuahua is not a great dane by looking at them and comparing features. Systems of government and economic practices can be analyzed, and since words like Communism, Capitalism, and Socialism mean things (when not used as some kind of ersatz…

You know what makes me sad? People who only look at the parts of history that support their position and ignore the rest. No one is saying that the manifestations of communism in Soviet Russia, China or North Korea were good things. We’re just not blind enough to history to think that one political system is the only…

I’m an American, and my family and the families of other Brown people and those of Black people and other people of color have our lives stripped down and sacrificed in the name of Capitalism and white supremacy. So, why don’t you stop centering the Universe around yourself. I love this woman’s actions and I…

Communism has been practiced by several horribly abusive autocratic regimes that committed many atrocities, but so has capitalism. TheNazis were in fact capitalist, and Fascism is a form of hyper-capitalist government according to Mussolini himself. It is defined as absolute rule by the financial elite.

Unless there’s…

Canada might not be the slam dunk you’re thinking it is. We’re coming to grips with our own genocide.

It hasn’t happened in any country. But as a Communist, she’s motivated by ideology to do what she can to fight white supremacy. You asked what Communist belief has to do with fighting racism, people answered.

And it pisses we communists off when you assume that there has never, ever been a brutal capitalist dictatorship who have murdered and tortured.

Well, at least you used the term ‘willy nilly’, and I approve of that.

What exactly is the axe you’re grinding here?

Communism is an ideology, and anti-racist thought and action are very much part of it in modern practice. It’s the duty of revolutionaries to destroy racist and sexist structures. It’s not a “buzzword,” it’s a system of belief.

Capitalism relies on racism and sexism to divide the proletariat for the benefit of the ruling class. Modern Communists, at least the ones I’m familiar with, are explicitly anti-racist and anti-sexist.
