#MutualAid 🚨 I am in a state of total desperation; I need urgent help. 🙏 I feel completely helpless. 😭 My life is in danger, and I haven’t been able to raise the $580 needed to pay off the loan for my dialysis treatments. Please, someone help me. 🙏 paypal.me/karellvallejo

So we’re going to prevent venture capitalists and tech founders from voting? They’re the only people really receiving traditional “welfare” in the form of direct entitlement to cash from the government based on economic pain.
If you receive welfare, you shouldn’t get to vote because you'd be a single-issue voter on maintaining and increasing your welfare, plus voting for any party that promises to do this.

You don’t hate Monday. You hate working for the boss to pay the landlord, and you deserve better.

Wow, if you're so conscientious about voting for the greater good, you'd think you'd want to do something about the economy that forces everyone to look after themselves first! Especially as it forces everyone to view society through narrow "interest" in the first place.

This ended up being a great conversation and we did a great job of actually sticking to the topic and keeping the rabbit holes reasonable for the theme. Let me know what you think!
On Sunday at 8AM PST/11AM EST, the Eclectic Radical returns! This week I am joined by Ray, from the Workers Lit podcast, to talk about modernism and fascism and what modernism is for those who may not be poetry heads. m.youtube.com/watch?v=gSaauW…

There is content and form here to pick apart, and the trick of the fascist meme is that it will hijack any message you plug into it and redirect it towards right-wing ideals. That there are a couple of bits here that come from left wing criticisms is all the more regrettable.
libs will see the most obvious left-wing criticism of left liberals and say "hm they're using the evil right wing wojacks, i can't tell who made it!"

'Glad that I'm alive': Woman recounts experience of being shot in leg at Seattle nightclub The reward for information leading to an arrest and charge in a deadly shooting at Kitten’s Cabaret in Georgetown has increased to $15,000. The person responsible has not been arrested. Police responded after multiple 911 calls reported shots fired at the nightclub on Fourth Ave. S. They found a 36-year-old security guard dead and a 27-year-old woman, who had recently started working at the club, shot in the leg. Surveillance footage showed several shots being fired from a vehicle in the parking lot before it drove away. About an hour later, the vehicle was found engulfed in flames in the SODO area. An anonymous donor contributed $14,000 to Crime Stoppers’ $1,000 reward. “I think it brings some motivation for anyone who knows who is responsible,” said Jim Fuda, Executive Director of Crime Stoppers of Puget Sound. “They can come forward and remain anonymous.” Read more: fox13seattle.com/news/woman-…

Delcy should arrest her traitorous ass
Guess who's back. Far-right leader María Corina Machado returned to Venezuela after months in a 5-star "exile." We were expecting some big showdown as she forced her way across the border or in an airport, but she just popped up in a church in Barquisimeto, Lara State

💔 Enough silence! We, the mothers of Gaza, are dying inside as we watch our children go hungry and be deprived of their most basic rights. Don’t we have the right to eat? Don’t our children have the right to live? How much longer must we endure this pain while we cry out and no one hears us? 💔🥺 chuffed.org/project/helpmara… @hsnyldrm1979 @TomLondon6

Blessed Sunday @EclecticRadShow I wanted to bring Nabirye's story your way again. Someone kindly gave $5 yesterday, and it reminded me that even a little support can keep a campaign moving. I'm hoping more people will find her story. Would you help me share it? 🫂
