“So help wake people up to the injustices of our system, as many people as you can by whatever means you have access to. Wake them up to the abuses of capitalism. To the abuses of imperialism. To the abuses of mass media propaganda. Learn as much as you can about the madness of our current system, and share what you have learned with as many people as possible.” - Caitlin Johnstone

Any Thinking Person

“The Judge, denying Israeli responsibility for Rachel Corrie’s death, said, “any thinking person” would have distanced themself from the area. But, no, that is exactly backwards. All of the unthinking persons were safely distanced from the area, from the conflict, many from even the knowledge of the genocide of Palestinians. Rachel was there precisely because she was thinking.

“So if Biden’s plan really addressed the root causes of the migrant crisis, why aren’t people asking why migration is getting worse? Hondurans are voting on the Biden plan by fleeing - and saying, “your plan didn’t work, and it made our situation worse” - by fleeing to the border.”

Imperial Narrative Control

“Do you trust these monopolistic megacorporations to decide whether or not people’s dissident speech is acceptable? I don’t.
As Julian Assange is condemned to remain falsely imprisoned and the mass media ramp up their case for more imperial narrative control, we are now in a battle for the sovereignty of our very minds.”

Thus, the carnage continues

“The carnage has no chance of stopping until the denial stops. This is not who we are must become, in the aftermath of the attack on the U.S. Capitol: This is precisely who we are. And we are ashamed. And we are aggrieved at what we’ve done, at how we let this happen. But we will change. We will hold the perpetrators accountable. We will change policy and practices. We will radically root out this problem. It will be painful. But without pain there is no healing.”

“One of the great liabilities of life is that all too many people find themselves living amid a great period of social change and yet they fail to develop the new attitudes, the new mental responses, that the new situation demands. They end up sleeping through a revolution.”

A Real Left Resistance?

YCBN Logo.png
“The United States desperately needs a real resistance, people who will organize to defend themselves and to hold elected representatives accountable...We have already lived through phony change and emotional theatrics instead of political action. Obama’s two terms in office gave us a health insurance bailout of the for-profit industry responsible for a failed system, the destruction of states like Libya, and black people deprived of the little wealth they had. Unless the Democratic Party scam is called out, we will end up with more of the same.”
