[Musk Reposted Meme Calling Americans Who Use Federal Programs the Parasite Class.]

Americans who use federal programs still purchase things, pay for rent, go to the doctor, own cars, pay for gas, etc.
All these things go back to the system that keeps society in America going.
Low income people, disabled people, LGBTQ, POC, all still keep society going.
It's crazy how they just don't see that. Or refuse to see that.

My having PTSD provides a job for my therapist. Amongst all her other patients.
My back issues, provide work for my physical therapist.
Same thing for my doctor, nutritionist, and dentist.
I may not work as much as people who are greedy and lack common sense.
But my ailments provide work for people who need to make a living. All of us keep the world going.

Marx, in his "The Civil War in France," listed several reasons why the Paris Commune failed. Among them was their lack of a centeralized leadership that prevented them from effectively coordinate their efforts against government forces, their underestimation of the strength and determination of the French bourgeoisie and the state, their lack of a solidified, revolutionary party structure, and a server lack of ideological unity within the Commune. 1/2 #communism #socialism

Today in Labor History March 18, 1871: The Paris Commune began on this date. It started with resistance to occupying German troops and the power of the bourgeoisie. They governed from a feminist and anarcho-communist perspective, abolishing rent and child labor, and giving workers the right to take over workplaces abandoned by the owners. The revolutionaries took control of Paris and held on to it for two months, until it was brutally suppressed. During Semaine Sanglante, the nationalist forces slaughtered 15,000-20,000 Communards. Hundreds more were tried and executed or deported. Many of the more radical communards were followers of Aguste Blanqui. Élisée Reclus was another leader in the commune. Many women participated, like Louise Michel and Joséphine Marchais, including in the armed insurrection. Nathalie Lemel, a socialist bookbinder, and Élisabeth Dmitrieff, a young Russian exile, created the Women's Union for the Defence of Paris and Care of the Wounded, demanding gender and wage equality.

"Die Linke must advance the rebuilding in East and West Germany, anchor itself more strongly in the West and build on strengths and renew its foundation in the East. The guiding claim must be to break the dominance of the SPD and Greens in the centre-left political space and become the leader itself. The upcoming local and state elections are important stages for this – even in many western German cities, given the federal election results, it is not audacious to seriously enter the race for the mayorship. All this is possible due to the political situation and the political vacancies of both competing parties on the one hand, and due to the enormous increase in membership since October/November 2024 on the other. Die Linke now counts over 100,000 comrades – a doubling in a few months. “This is effectively a refounding of the party: around 60% (exactly: 59.9%) of Die Linke’s members have joined since the 2021 federal election, more than 50% since Wagenknecht’s departure.”12 Die Linke has the chance to break the dominance of the SPD and Greens among socially oriented and progressively thinking people – but this can only succeed if political stumbling blocks that stand in the way are also addressed."

socialistproject.caBuilding Up Germany’s Die Linke After the Election! – Socialist ProjectDie Linke (The Left) has staged an impressive comeback. But even more is possible. It can become the strongest political force to the left of centre. The party was successful due to anti-fascist class politics, a strong grassroots campaign, pointed public work, and extremely strong teamwork – but also due…

The 3rd and final section of the Felich is finally done!!! The Felich is a monumental work that me & a few others have been writing that covers and unites pretty much all aspects of the universe, from religion and morality to science and mathematics, and also gives a physical and religious proof for anarchism and socialism (among other things)... If any of that interests you I recommend taking a read!
