Once again it's time for another bloomer thread. Post good news, something nice that happened to you, or just some words of courage. Lord knows we need it.

If anyone asks, my contribution is this dope ass rat

    Capitalist power today is essentially built upon the bribes made possible by the post war boom, and the amount of time they have been in power. Every day these become less and less effective at keeping the proletariat in line. Eventually the people will know where they stand, and then there will be nothing that can stop us.

    And above all else what keeps me going is that they have to win every single time, we only have to win once. Every cointelpro, every counter-revolutionary action, they all have to win. As soon as the imperial core falls there will be no way to piece it back together. Once the USA and France, among others, finally eat shit there will never again be the conditions nessecary to recreate western imperialism. I don't know if I will live to see it, but communism will win, whether by me, our grandchildren, or their children, the pigs will finally fucking lose.

      I hadn't considered any of this before but you're so right. And the writing is on the wall for the collapse of the imperial core in the USA, and cannot be postponed forever in France — capitalism is a snake eating its own tail, and the tendency of the rate of profit to fall makes it inevitable that it will collapse under the weight of its own contradictions.

        the tendency for the rate of profit to go down is basically my religion at this point. :anglo-burn: :gasoline: :sicko-wholesome:

          Right there with you sister, even my most pessimistic moments it's soothing to remind myself that the last day of capitalism may not be today, it may not be tomorrow, it may not even be in my lifetime - but it will be someday
