9/ Zei Squirrel: As an authentic socialist I'm disgusted by the lack of international class solidarity. Workers must demand total capitulation to any and all capitalist dictators wanting to take over neighboring countries, for any reason. That's called internationalism. Stop the killing. Peace Now.

I truly believe that the lack of concerted resistance we’re seeing right now is partly because masses of people have grown really skeptical of protests and marches as lasting solutions. We have to work to ensure that the pause of skepticism isn’t a surrender, but a reorientation.

It’s accelerating exponentially; I’m still in shock.
My one, small petty consolation is that many of them are self destructive enough to have burned personal bridges so they won’t get the call. Fuentes will never get that call.
