Democracy Now! has an excellent special report on the Trump #criminal #abduction of #Venezuela president #Maduro
USians, we have got to make more of an effort, a real effort, to #resist the #fascism of this government. It's not okay to just give up. This is our responsibility. Hope you're protesting today. Hope you're organizing the next protest. It's clear that this regime intends to extend US #empire via active #colonialism. It's open #imperialism.
And, for fucks sake, the nations of the world need to sanction the US. The US is a bully. It has to be fought by the global community.
And again, those in the US, we are behind enemy lines. We are in the empire. We are the citizens of the empire.
We've got to do our part. There's no hiding from this. Don't be a good Good German. Don't give up.
This fight is just beginning. As fucked as the past year has been, these are just the first days of a long fight. Get ready.
#resist #organize
@dennyhenke The world will do nothing. When the world's financial system is controlled by the US, other nations *can't* do anything. That is the tragic reality.
So any change will have to come from within.
It's 250 years since the US Declaration of Independence.
If you've never read Howard Zinn's "A People's History of the United States" I urge you to do that. Start it today. Start a reading group.
Our current moment is built upon the first days of Columbus setting foot in the "New World" which was fucking not a new world. He began the #Genocide. He began the process of #Colonialism in these already inhabited continents.
The US was NEVER about #democracy. From first days it was #classwar.
@dennyhenke I just got his book. Will read it soon.
