“The historical course of the proletariat led to a crossroads: it could become a class or a racket. Racket meant privileges within national borders, class meant world revolution. The leaders have relieved the proletariat of this decision.”
Em nossos tempos, o comunista se define acima de tudo por sua posição intransigentemente internacionalista. Sem qualquer conciliação com o nacionalismo e o chauvinismo. Essa é a marca principal da posição pró-revolucionária, muito mais do que o fetiche por uma violência +

that’s it, I’m done. back to studying the ancient fires and critical theory, hit me up when the self incurred immaturity has ceased.

I know it’s problematic, I get it, but I genuinely do see Adorno’s points on pseudo-activity, abjuring the difficult work of critical thought, and the obligation to reflection, as being fully relevant to this moment.

Some interesting parallels between German critical thought and Black American radicalism on entertainment & slavery. In order, this is Heinrich Heine’s The Slave Ship, Frederick Douglass’s Narrative of the Life, Theodor Adorno’s On Jazz, and Saidiya Hartman’s Scenes of Subjection

I actually do think innocent amusements and mindless joy in times of barbarism are themselves barbaric as well, sorry

NYT: Moderate Democrats Increase Their Clout For much of the midterm campaign, progressive Democratic insurgents commanded the spotlight in the fight to wrest control of Congress, defeating establishment incumbents in primaries, drawing enthusiastic crowds and promising to reorder their party’s priorities and remake American politics once they got to Washington. But the path to Democrats’ sweeping victory this week, when they seized control of both chambers of Congress, was paved overwhelmingly by moderates who had spent months persuading voters in Republican-leaning states and competitive congressional districts that they could be trusted to govern and would deliver dissatisfied voters a practical alternative to President Trump nytimes.com/2026/11/04/us/po…

Announcement: At the Twenty-Third Annual Historical Maternalism conference on November 5th, the CTWG will be presenting a panel on an upcoming book on racket theory in collaboration with Ebb books. We would love to see some comrades there!

Americans genuinely have such an over inflated sense of self importance and righteousness

What are you thanking Sinwar for? The Gaza Strip is reduced to rubble, both political parties responsible for that are as powerful as ever, and the bombs continue to fall. And what have we done? A few tents on college campuses? Surrendered ourselves to the dominant culture?

This is the political melancholia of socialists today. War is treated as something that happens - over there -, rather than the responsibility of the class whose war has the potential to put an end to war once and for all. Develop a sense of ego, see the writing on the wall.

saw this at the MOMA and sat down on the bench in front of it and i was just staring at it enamored and a woman walked up and looked at it and then at me and sat down next to me. And we were just staring at it together for a few minutes it felt very special

We’re definitely in an Islam and Arab moment in the polls, all while the inferno in the Gaza Strip continues. The world is dejected, it’s not me

We just returned the party that killed around 500k Palestinian to legislative power with no consequences or changes. Just what Sinwar was dreaming of I’m sure.

A profoundly American thing is thinking your living in unprecedented times every two years and that history just might not apply to you this time

There is something to be said about the infantile narcissism that really marks the current age, its immediate gratification, vicarious politics, etc. Socialists today are more nihilistic, more hopeless, more parochial, all the more so for their naive belief in progress.
