Tired of seeing fellow 'leftists' continue to use Spotify when they pumped profits into AI military tech. They screw over small artists through not paying their fair share and give preference to larger artists in special deals. Their pay-to-play features reduced artists income. The platform is bogged down with AI artists and fake artists, again propping up AI. Etc etc. Please just suppprt artists directly.

Boycotts can achieve great things. Check the story of the Dunnes Stores Boycott and South Africa.

I understand convenience is the key to a lot of consumer decisions, and at this point it can be hard to avoid unethical companies at times but genocide and fascism aren't exactly convenient either.

Would love to see this sub pin a clear list of companies leftists need to avoid at all costs and a short summary of why they need avoided to cut down on the time needed to educate.

i’m a MLM and i have tried to read theory and have had times where i can read large amounts and other times where i can barely get through 5 pages. i have ADHD and meds help but it’s summer break and i would like to save those for when school comes back. i do grasp information well from videos so what youtubers are good at explaining marxist concepts?

This is Iyad; he is special needs. After their home was destroyed, everything in his life changed. He used to sleep in a bed and receive the care he needed; today, he sleeps on the ground—amidst the heat, insects, and mosquitoes—far removed from the care he was accustomed to. Iyad cannot articulate what he is feeling or ask for what he needs, but he understands hunger, fear, and exhaustion. They left their home and everything behind... and now, they have nothing left but each other. Please, do not leave Iyad alone. A little compassion could mean the world to him.

Right and wrong may be relative, but this is certainly NOT the way to handle a peaceful protest.When the future generation of a nation speaks up, and their voices are met with repressive force, it is the future itself that is being stamped down. It is faith in democracy that is being drained away.What did these students do wrong? Did they destroy property? Did they resort to violence? What exactly did they do to deserve this treatment?To every person protesting for a just cause, peacefully, in any part of our country, I extend my wholehearted solidarity. The right to dissent is not a threat to democracy; in fact it is one of its foundations.And to anyone about to question my sense of nationalism, I know myself better than you do.

My politics is humanity. My belief is peace.

Watching the current student protests, the first thing I noticed wasn't the politics - it was the unity. Students from different backgrounds standing together with a common purpose is honestly impressive.

Whatever your opinion on the protests is, I think that kind of unity is something we don't get to see very often. What do you guys think?

(Please **do not comment** if you want to relate it to any political agenda)

Hi everyone! ive been a lurker of this sub for quite some time now and its been about a year since I decided to make a YouTube channel about politics, history, and other global news! Its called the IBUReport(essentially Independent but United but, I am very much on the left). I have been trying to upload more consistently but if anyone has any ideas on any videos they would like to see or if you would just like to show some support to my channel I would greatly appreciate it!

The term itself means disagreement and when this happens it will lead to violence. Peaceful dialogue is the only way or a peaceful legal action.
Such public protests are just political propaganda and every party will try to gain mileage from it and the students will be left stranded

what will it take to reign in this mad-dash run-away-train bottomless-pit murderer (with crude taste and rude rapist ways) and his homies..

I am so fucking tired of being told that America cannot afford healthcare, housing, food assistance, education, veteran care, or anything else that would materially improve ordinary people’s lives.

House Republicans just passed a 216–214 budget blueprint that begins the reconciliation process for a package worth up to $95 billion.

The breakdown:

• $60 billion for the Pentagon

• $13 billion for national security

• $12 billion for farmers affected by Trump’s tariffs

• $10 billion connected to the SAVE America Act and its new voting requirements

So let me understand this correctly.

Trump drags the country into another war without congressional authorization. His tariffs hurt American farmers. Then taxpayers are expected to fund both disasters while Republicans attach Trump’s voting agenda to the same package.

Meanwhile, 18 American service members are dead, more than 430 have been wounded, and the Iran war has already cost taxpayers an estimated $37.5 billion.

But when Americans ask for affordable healthcare, cheaper housing, properly funded schools, food assistance, or functioning veterans’ services, suddenly every Republican becomes deeply concerned about the deficit.

The money always exists for war.

The money always exists for corporate handouts.

The money always exists when Trump wants another blank check or Republicans want more control over elections.

It only disappears when ordinary Americans need something.

Fuck Donald Trump, fuck this pointless war, and fuck every fake “fiscal conservative” who pretends America is broke until the Pentagon comes knocking.

On July 16, Raymond L. Jensen Jr., a high-ranking official of the United Auto Workers, posted a death threat against Will Lehman, the socialist Mack Trucks worker and candidate for UAW president. The threat was an AI-generated image posted on Lehman’s public Facebook campaign page depicting Lehman bound with rope and gagged, blood running from his mouth, with a masked man aiming an automatic rifle at his back.

The International Workers Alliance of Rank-and-File Committees (IWA-RFC) calls on workers and all defenders of democratic rights to denounce this incitement to violence against Will Lehman and demand its unequivocal public repudiation by the UAW.

Jensen’s threatening post cannot be brushed aside as the act of a deranged individual acting on his own. Jensen is an organizer on the staff of the UAW. Until recently he was the assistant director of UAW Region 9, the region to which Lehman belongs. He was paid approximately $202,000 in total compensation in 2025, according to the union’s LM-2 filings with the US Labor Department. He is a prominent supporter of UAW President Shawn Fain, and his Facebook profile displays an “I Support Sha

The IWA-RFC calls on UAW members and workers in every industry, in the US and internationally, to take up the defense of Lehman as their own cause. As Lehman stated: “This threat is not aimed at me alone. It is an act of intimidation directed against the entire rank-and-file opposition.”

The IWA-RFC also calls on all left-wing and progressive organizations to categorically denounce this threat.

We got Temu Track AIPAC before GTA VI now?

I wanna look into more famines that took place under socialist rule to know better what sources are actually useful and trustworthy?

It really does seem like no one cares. All eyes on the middle east.

Not talking about policies made by corrupt politicians. But as individuals what’s something you all find you agree with along with people on the right?

Your thoughts on this??

I feel like this site has one of the largest pro-Israel communities on social media. You really have to dig for Zionist content on X, YouTube, or TikTok, but not here.
