Capitalist Strategy and the Petite Bourgeoisie
Karl Marx seemed to believe that capitalism was almost over when he wrote about it in the mid to late 1800’s; now, that assumption seems absurd. In my opinion, the key to understanding the longevity of capitalism and the domination of the world by the capitalist class is the concept of the “petite bourgeoisie”. Per…

Idiocracy Now: Part 3
An important correction. I sincerely intended to go through all of Project 2025 and give you a brief summary of each section of it and what the likely consequences would be. However, it has become abundantly clear that the MAGAs are too internally chaotic to allow for an accurate prediction of exactly how they will…

It’s Time to End the Democratic Party
Ben Shapiro and Amy Klobuchar are on the same side. Ben Shapiro is the far-right influencer with the nasally voice who talks about men not being manly enough but stays home with his kids while his wife works outside the home. Amy Klobuchar is the medium-right (honestly, she might be far-right) politician currently representing Minnesota…

Elites vs. the CEO Assassin
I’m not going to editorialize about the actual assassination of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, but I think it is important to look at the reactions of American elites and their mouthpieces (i.e., the mainstream media) in contrast to the reactions of many millions of working class people because it really encapsulates our current political…

Idiocracy Now: Part 2
It’s probably worse than you think. 1. Trump will probably be replaced by Vance. The initial government that is being cobbled together by the MAGAs is largely guided by Donald Trump’s giant ego and tiny intellect. As a result, it looks like a random assortment of ass-kissing clowns, and yes, they will completely destroy the…

There Will be an Incident, and that Incident Will Likely be a Massacre
The Insurrection Act and the Dilemma of Protest While authoritarian regimes can take office both through elections or insurrections, in history there have often been additional incidents that authoritarians use to further catalyze and solidify power. Back when Trump was president the first time around, many talked about a “Reichstag Moment” – an event that…

Please Stop Donating to the Democrats
In the end, the MAGA plan to steal the 2024 election was wholly unnecessary — or so it seems. Trump won handily, even managing to win the popular vote, which is an infrequent thing for a Republican candidate for President. I’m not yet ready to talk about how the left might respond to this in…

How MAGAs May Attempt to Steal the 2024 Election
I’ve covered this before, but here it is briefly: This election is fundamentally different from the attempted election theft by the MAGAs in 2020. In 2020, the plan was to have Vice President Mike Pence accept a fraudulent slate of electors from various swing states. Basically, ignoring what the people in that state voted for…

A Special Message from Nancy Pelosi
Tomorrow’s election is the most important American election ever, and that’s why it is more important than ever that you get out and vote! However, if leftists don’t show up and vote for Kamala Harris (as is their duty), or if Trump’s people manipulate the electoral system in a completely legal way to invalidate our…
