“Biden is complicit in the genocidal deaths of over 30 thousand human beings but all these freaks at CNN and MSNBC can talk about is the criminality of Donald Trump.” (-Ajamu Baraka)
“I know Trump sucks and he will win but Genocide is not worth what the democrats call democracy. You cannot murder people 24/7 and tell me that Biden is still your guy. Biden is a monster and so is every democrat who backs him. Don’t tell me to vote for the lesser of two evils.” (-Hank Mager)
“Netanyahu’s allies in Congress want to push through the $14.1 billion genocide tax on Americans as soon as late next week for Netanyahu’s continuing annihilation of Gaza.
The real fatality and injury toll is far greater than is being reported and the truth will soon come out, galvanizing greater opposition to this outrageous raid on the American taxpayer. So will mayors of cities demanding that money be provided for poor, hungry children in America without healthcare. Do your part. Call your House Representative and two senators at 202-224-3121 and the White House at 202-456-1111. ” (-Ralph Nader)

The Ghosts of Gaza Are Whispering Every Night – CovertAction Magazine
“MAGA Republicans claim to be a bold anti-war, anti-establishment faction, which is squarely refuted by their support for the Gaza genocide.
Democrats claim to support human rights and to oppose tyranny and racism, which is squarely refuted by their support for the Gaza genocide.” (-Caitlin Johnstone)
“I feel destroyed. My family in Gaza text me to say they have given up hope. I try to do the bare minimum and protest for them here and I have to literally hide from police even though I have done nothing wrong.
When you meet me it won’t look like it, but I’m absolutely destroyed” (-Hebh Jamal)

GOOD MORNING TO ALL MY BROTHERS & SISTERS & FRIENDS OF THE REVOLUTION
I live in the desert where the wind is crazy and a constant reminder of how everything just blows away. I remember how I used to sit on a barstool at the lameass grunge bar having coffee or hell sometimes, well whiskey for breakfast before all the hipster middle class indie rock poseurs would showup and that semi-hypnotic “One Headdlight” song would always be playing on VH1. Kinda bummed out about that Wallflowers guitarist Michael Ward’s death. He was just a few years older than me. I thought they were an exceptional pop band in the mostly godawful fake alternative/grunge era, they had some powerful songs that remind me of lost loved ones. Rest In peace. When I first grabbed their first album promo outta the free shelf at Tower records, there wasn’t any big picture on the cover advertising “Dylan’s Kid”, just like, a headless group photo, ya know, and I liked them immediately, they reminded me of like early Goo Goo Dolls and Jacobites and Snatches Of Pink and I loved the name of the band-lovely. First song I recall liking by them was “Asleep At The Wheel”, which I will post below, but man I’m still haunted by that line about “cemetary trees”. I’m sitting at a picture window looking at plastic bags swirling past and the Xmas ornaments and windchimes blowing in my perfect tree outside. Of course it’s not really my tree, but while I’m here, I’ve gotten appreciative of the nature that surrounds us. Though it keeps enveloping people and places I thought I knew. I wrote some pretty good songs about that but you know if you are working class, or mired in deep poverty, really, nobody cares and nobody remembers, all those gatekeeper Barbie Dreamhouse assholes ever wanna know about you is have you clocked in yet and why aren’t you scrubbing. You gotta be some mama money jock richkid with a gym membership, part time lifeguard job, and pay to play fantasy camp waiting for their inheritance budget for any got-mine gentrification motherfuckers to even acknowledge your music or art in this zombified Brunch Culture Of Elitism and let them eat cake and I am certainly Not That. Been a mighty stressful week here, kinda been too depleted to do much besides try to carry out my obligations and rest when I can, ‘sorta emotionally tapped out and creatively depleted. The one percent ruling class who own this country and profit from keeping the weapon makers ever richer and the boomer middle class sedated on media gaslighting and non stop craven consumerism and phermaceuticals, make us low wage laborors so exhausted what with having to fight for every scrap of nothin’, there really aint much time for recreation, relationships, art, or music making, ya know, it’s all hunger games and fight to live on the planet of the apes, now. It’s gonna come for all of the more insulated people, too. Remember I told you. You know that Dylan song, “The Man In Me”? I’m feelin’ that on these mornings when it feels like I’m non consensually turning into a machine. When you’re responsible for other people’s safety and wellbeing, the take this job and shove it, most satisfying walkout aint always an option. I hope wherever you are, you are doing something all the time to help stop the massacres of innocents by western warpigs. And that you are boycotting all genocide affiliated companies and candidates who greenlit butchered babies and bombed hospitals for Aipac. To all those in the real active struggle against genocide, tyrrany and uniparty fascism, may you find some hours each day for relief and respite from the shamefull horrors of the rulers, and some genuine moments of comaraderies and solidarity. Peace upon you and solidarity and revolutionary love. (-The General)

“Presidential elections are about whether the Liberal or Conservative wing of the Establishment, both owned by the corporations, get to be the face of the Empire for the next 4 years
Nowhere in that equation is a thought about doing anything to improve the lives of Americans” (-Black In The Empire)
This two party system exists to divide the working class. ” (-Edward Marrs)
“Hope people don’t forget that Pelosi and others changing their tune have backed genocide for 6 months. They just voted to defund the UNRWA and send more arms. We need this to end, but no one who’s been complicit in genocide deserves a medal. They still don’t care. It’s politics” (-Bruce P. Knight)
“Most Americans still believe that Russia invaded Ukraine unprovoked. What’s going to happen to all these ignorant people?” (-Brenda Factor)

Your presidents are picked beforehand and designed to suck so you never feel strong or worthy of a good life. They do it to keep you stressed and hopeless and arguing with each other. They do it to keep you down. Go look at your towns and use your eyes, we are all kept down. ” (-Squid Diddly)
“Instead of using all of our resources, energy, and time to meet our true potential, experience the world, rid ourselves of disease, and solve societal problems… we’ve been conditioned to commodify our entire existence and live merely to work and consume.” (-Just. A. Thought)
“8 billion people live on this planet among them 2 billion Muslims and they can’t save 2 million people from death!

“Get ready for a MASSIVE FALSE FLAG to be blamed on IRAN!!” (-Kent Peterson)

Democrats: If you pressure Biden it means you want Trump to win [Pressure makes Biden take action to get aid trucks in] Democrats: Give Biden credit for being such a compassionate and skilled diplomat!” (-Holding Biden Accountable)
“The Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 makes it illegal for Biden to give weapons or give security assistance to any nation that is committing war crimes. Israel commits them daily. Joe Biden is in violation of US law.” (-Prof Zenkus)
“Do U.S. veterans tell themselves the United States military win wars in order make themselves feel better or something? To help themselves sleep at night?
The sooner you admit you was duped by the rich and the military industrial complex to fight for criminal wars just to increase their wealth, the sooner you can begin the healing process and move on By staying in denial and keeping this facade up all you are doing are leading the next generations of Americans to get conned by our criminal ruling class” (-Revolutionary Blackout Network)
“Starvation is an instrument of war.
The blockade is 60+ years of collective punishment and a death sentence imposed on the Cuban people by the US government. It is criminal and inhumane. This is urgent let’s fight the blockade and support the Cuban people. Join the campaign #LetCubaLive” (-Claudia De La Cruz)
“Israel lies to the world constantly, and our Congress is filled with people who lie to us on Israel’s behalf. They have all gotten away with it for a long time, but eyes have been opened and that era is ending.” (-Dan Kervick)

“From the day of the Israeli invasion of our beloved Gaza, the flame of my musical inspiration has been extinguished. I have no idea if it will ever light up again.
I even feel bad saying this. It’s an insignificant loss compared to what our people have lost in Gaza.” (-Doc Jazz)
“Democrats don’t fight fascism.
They help to normalize it.” (-Gritty Is The Way)
Good riddance to No Labels. We already have two billionaire-backed parties serving corporate interests, we don’t need another one. What we need is a party that works for the people, not the powerful – which is why Green candidates never take a cent of corporate money. ” (-Dr. Jill Stein)
“If you criticise Israel, you will – very likely – be smeared
Don’t be intimidated Don’t be bullied” (-Tom London)
“The trouble with a secret life is that it is very frequently a secret from the person who lives it and not at all a secret for the people he encounters. He encounters, because he must encounter, those people who see his secrecy before they see anything else, and who drag these secrets out of him; sometimes with the intention of using them against him, sometimes with more benevolent intent; but,whatever the intent, the moment is awful and the accumulating revelation is an unspeakable anguish. The aim of the dreamer, after all, is merely to go on dreaming and not to be molested by the world. His dreams are his protection against the world. But the aims of life are antithetical to those of the dreamer, and the teeth of the world are sharp.” (-James Baldwin)

“Again, ppl subscribe to this “lesser evil” framing that isn’t based in anything except a popular saying.
Genocide is the agenda. Period. When ppl ask “would Trump be different?” they acknowledge it’s the same agenda. So clearly more urgent action is needed long before November.” (-Free Palestine, No More Masters)
“So many on the Right who are concerned about the new authoritarian dystopia we are heading towards mistakenly
describe it as Communism It’s not Communism What we are witnessing is the big play by the ruling capitalist class It’s complete corporate capture It’s Fascism.” (-Daniel Fooks)
“What a Coincidence that the chosen Leaders of the World Economic Forum keep winning Elections even though they are absolutely DESPISED by all of their Citizens?” (-illumanatibot)
