If every investment banker in New York went on strike, nothing would much change in America. If every plumber decided to stop working, every electrician, the country comes to a halt. I mean, literally, not figuratively, literally, it comes to a damn halt.
Tonight I am calling on every American to commence a general strike effective immediately. All campaign donations will go directly to a general strike fund for workers.
We have a single demand: complete worker ownership of every company. If this demand is not met, we will destroy the global economy with zero hesitation. This is your last chance at a peaceful transition of power. The next step will be armed revolution.
We have nothing to lose but our chains, folks.
:biden:.
I HAVE BEEN TELLING YOU FOR COUGH WEEKS THAT SLEEPY JOE IS A COMMUNIST AND YOU COUGH DIDN'T BELIEVE ME! SAD
Everyone believed you and nobody cared, Donny boy. Nobody has ever cared. :dem:
Is Biden loses his chains, though, how is he going to defend himself against Corn Pop?
As confirmation of this idea, for three separate years in a single decade, the entire Irish banking sector went on strike. "The effect on the Irish economy was surprisingly small, as Irish citizens traded cheques among themselves based on mutual trust, effectively substituting them for cash."
A fascist is someone who understands the Marxist worldview and consciously sides with the propertied class.
"We gotta do something about the BANKSTERS" isn't incompatible with a lot of American rightist thought
Well you heard it from Joe folks get out there and do a militant general strike
“If the working class ever realized their shared interest and power and banded together to withhold their labor we would be powerless to stop them, haha pretty cool so anyway vote for me!” - Joe
Given that we live in the stupidest timeline, I hereby predict that Joe Biden will spend the next 3 weeks reading theory and rising in class consciousness. By Nov. 2nd he'll actually be the Maoist that FOX News says he is. But by that point the DNC will have actively betrayed him, obviously throwing the election in order to prevent any progress towards socialism.
To talk a load of malarkey without having your shoes buckled on, Jack. This is a twelfth type of liberalism.
Everyone was so busy pretending Bernie was hiding his power level they completely overlooked this
I have zero faith in it being real but honestly if Biden really is just hiding his power level and deep down still is a coal boy from Scranton who loves the IWW then that's actually based
Not gonna happen though and if it does lol Langley's gonna have a lot to say about it
I mean that would be based. It’s not what’s happening, but it’s fun to imagine.
In 2020's final trick, it was Joe Biden hiding his power level and not Bernie
Waiting until I’m elected president at 80 years old to reveal my entire political career has been orchestrated to bring socialism to the United States when I barely squeak into office running for the 10th time would be a hell of a bit.
Listen clutch, this ain't reader's digest and I ain't gonna subscribe to just one tendency. Mark these words: Amerika will only be destroyed by a united left.
:biden:
oh cool he's class conscious then and just dgafs
get fucked old man
Somewhere upstairs he remembered what he used to think before he bowed down to monied interests
This falls under "I see you" bullshit. What's the policy that I give a shit about? Give us fucking Medicare you old fuck.
He also has a division in difference between an honest 'banker' and a duplicitous 'investment banker'
What if he actually reverts to an angsty teenage anarchist phase for a brief period of time as his brain dies out lol
He forgot to add “except for the ownership of the means of production” :stalin-shining:
Start acting like it then. Don't pay fucking lip service and give the rich everything.
Some people are such suckers, such credulous, gullible marks for giving weight to this that I weep that I am a Marxist who morally cannot take advantage of them.
Biden is a politician's politician. He knows how to campaign and offer cheap dog whistles to ignorant voters who won't follow up on his actions. This is such a meaningless statement disconnected from real class analysis that I could imagine some Republican at a stump speech in Iowa uttering it.
