‘Brutally honest’: Public outcry forces Facebook to stop banning pics of starving Yemeni girl
A backlash prompted Facebook to stop removing posts featuring a photo of an emaciated seven-year-old Yemeni girl, which accompanied a harrowing New York Times report from the war-torn country.The atrocities in Yemen don’t make poignant headlines in Western mainstream media as often as stories about chemical weapons in Syria or ‘Russian meddling,’ as the conflict usually gets sidelined in the press, but there are notable exceptions. ‘The Tragedy of Saudi Arabia’s War’ was the title of a grim report published by the NYT on Friday.

What Will Become of Linux Giant Red Hat Now That It Sold Out to IBM?
As the New York Times reported yesterday, IBM is in the process of purchasing Red Hat, one of the largest corporate contributors to the Linux kernel. The news is great if you’ve got stock in either company or a passion to see a cloud computing services challenge Amazon (and Microsoft).

Unless they find a way to get through beefed up Israeli security, that will just mean a slaughter of Palestinians. Knife attacks have been all the rage for a while now and they don't pack a lot of punch. We need a new proverbial poor man's atom bomb.

Hezbollah is stronger than the Israeli ground troops, they could probably afford to gone on the offensive if Fatah and PFLP are low on manpower, morale, or munitions

Isn't it ironic that if Bill Clinton had done this in the 90s the militia movement probably would have started CIvil War 2,0 but because BASED trump does it they are completely silent

so much for the "libertarian" Right

OP/ED

Are Workers the “Gravediggers” of Capitalism?
Karl Marx didn't believe the working class would automatically end capitalism. He believed that actively engaging in class struggle can change workers' consciousness — and change the world.

Slavoj Žižek: Until the rich world thinks 'one world,' migration will intensify
The "rich" world urgently needs to address the reasons behind mass migration, rather than its symptoms. And understand we live in one world.Migration is, once again, headline news. Columns of migrants from Honduras are approaching the US border through Mexico; African migrants broke through barriers and entered the small Spanish exclave on the northern tip of Africa; Middle East migrants are trying to enter Croatia.

Far-right candidate Bolsonaro elected as Brazil’s president
The election of Bolsonaro, an open defender of the US-backed, 21-year military dictatorship that ruled Brazil until 1985, and of its murderous and barbaric repression, marks a thorough-going breakdown of the regime of civilian bourgeois democratic rule that emerged in Brazil after the military ceded power.It also represents a shipwreck for all of the parties that previously held power, first and foremost the PT, which served as the preferred instrument of rule for the Brazilian bourgeoisie for 13 years.

Lumberton, NC: Vision and Action

What follows is just a snapshot. The friendships formed and the sense of possibility birthed defies quantification, but we want to give a picture of the magnitude of what people have done in the area post-Florence.

America Wants China to Reform Its State-Owned Enterprises to be Market-Oriented: Be Careful What You Wish for!
Forty years after reforms and opening initiated by Deng Xiaoping, Architect-in-Chief of Modern China, private businesses have vastly transformed the Chinese economy. The numbers 5,6,7,8 and 9 are often used to sum up the contributions made by the private sector to the economy : over 50% of government revenue, more than 60% of GDP, 70% of technological innovation, 80% of total employment and 90% of new jobs created.

I disagree, the 90's militia movement mirrored the New Communist Movement in its flaws like adventurism and lack of theory or discipline. The furthest they'd get would be something like the Syrian Muslim Brotherhood back in the 80's.

Yeah but that wasn't really my point

Hezbollah defends Lebanon, they are not just a generalized antizionist army in waiting. They will not do this. The sad fact is that Palestinians in the West Bank have been largely pacified because they hold no leverage.

You're just making shit up out of thin air about things you dont like. Thats just fucking wrong. The feeling that human beings are a waste of breath crops up all the fucking time amongst working class and lumpen leftists, anarchists especially. If anything its the privileged rich kid liberals who've embraced compassionate optimism as their MO.

And what percentage consider the US as one of the places they would move manufacturing to? Answer is given in the article. It's 1%.

Kind of misleading. Marx had an extremely deterministic view of history and believed the ascendancy of the working class and the demise of capitalism was inevitable.

no he didn't

from a probabilistic viewpoint

I still care. I feel deeply. I just don't have any hope.
