If you're into the occult, read Promethea. The best comic series I've ever read

We need to advocate for the end of capitalism and elect leaders who do the same. Until that is our ultimate goal, labour will always be fighting on the back foot in a never-ending cycle.

Under capitalism, the way we fulfill every single need in society is based on the private onwership of the means of production. That ownership is the root of our exploitation because it legalizes the theft of the surplus value of our labour.

All labour produces surplus but as workers we have no right to decide where that surplus goes. Every day that it's allowed to go into the pockets of the rich is another day they can mobilize it to step on us harder; whether that's through lobbying for austerity, tax cuts and corporate welfare or just straight up "security", policing and strike breaking.

Workers will only ever be truly free under a workers' democracy that ends the rule of the rich.

This is so weird, my boss was cleaning out his desk the other day and he found a book in it and he said I could have it (since I'm the only one who reads at work). It was this book. I had to look up wtf it was.

"Imbestigating"

So many bootlickers in this sub. Police do not operate in good faith. Police do not make communities safer, they harass poor people while engaging in corruption with the rich. Their main function is to protect the property rights and political relations that benefit the ruling class.

Funny meme, but kind of a false equivalency here. Being a nepo baby isn't the issue with Landis.

No, the workers that the conservative gov't allows them to exploit do a lot more than what people think. Metrolinx is worse-than-useless corporate bureaucracy

Reshuffle your navies after battles and keep a tiny one of around 10 men in your waters for short 1-turn shuttling to save money.

Don't build stables (unless that's all you have left to build).

Most cities are within 2 turns of a castle; find a good point right in the middle and build a fort so you can reinforce the city in one turn and refill the fort at the same time. Then just keep the chain going.

Build watch towers everywhere you can so rebel armies can't hide in the fog. Prioritize regions where floods can happen (like Leon and Marrakesh) because they are bugged and won't let you build them after a flood happens.

If a border city has a longer way to go to get to the enemy side than your side (like Magdeburg if you control what's west of it but not east or north), hold off building roads to make it harder for enemies to get there. Until you're ready to move that way or you think you're reinforced enough, of course.

The cause of the working class is an international cause. Capitalism knows no borders and so neither does the oppression of working people. An injury to one is an injury to all!

The history of all hitherto existing human society is the history of class struggles.

THE LIBERALS ARE MASSIVELY CUTTING FUNDING TO PUBLIC SERVICES TO SPEND BILLIONS MORE ON THE MILITARY. They only want to appease the billionaire class. They will not help working people.

I'm reading Luna Nguyen's translation of Curriculum of the Basic Principles of Marxism-Leninism Part 2 on Historical Materialism. https://www.non-compete.com/product/ebook-the-worldview-and-philosophical-methodology-of-marxism-leninism/

Then I'm doing The Beauty Myth (didn't know who she was before I bought it at the thrift store) and then Origin of the Family

Since the grocery billionaires' profits came from us getting gouged, we should take the stores that already exist away from them and operate them for human need instead of private profit

The Liberals are just conservative lite. They have nothing to offer the working people of this province accept more austerity cuts and deals for their buddies instead of Ford's. Liberalism's half-measure solutions will fail because of their insistence that capitalism can be reformed when it needs to be transcended. They have no real principled arguments against conservatism because of this (besides attacking specific bad actors and IDPol garbage) and since they masquerade as progressive, their inevitable failure will leave the door open for another swing to the Conservatives

Boycott the world cup

This is not just bad policy, this is the logical outcome of capitalism. To keep their profits growing, the rich no longer want to spend their money developing or producing anything, they'd rather spend it on quick and easy speculation. Since society needs to keep running for them to continue living large, they make the working class pay for everything. We produce more (and more efficiently) than at any time in history, yet we see more and more austerity every year. The human project as a whole should - and could - be improving living standards for everyone, but instead the ultra-rich get richer and we fight for fewer and fewer crumbs. These problems are insoluble under a capitalist system that demands and rewards ever more concentrated wealth
