Obviously it’s a process that is always brewing under capitalism but you know what I mean. Do you think we are close, like within 5 to 10 years close to a major declaration of war between the imperial core and the periphery or something of the sort? Would you argue it’s already started?

I see Palestine liberating itself, I see solidarity with them along the people, I see the ripples that the Ukraine conflict has started, I see more and more revolutionary sentiment building. Could be an experience bias because now I’m more involved in real life so I see it more, but things just seem to be accelerating and I’m here for it. Much work needs to be done to capitalize and educate/funnel us all towards a progressive revolution and not a reactionary one, but I’m ready

    U.S. Elections will be weird with this whole Trump ballot fiasco. Will he be banned on more ballots? Will he be written in? Will delegates and superdelegates even respect Write-in votes? Will Biden finally fucking die before the election? So many questions

        Idk, Colorado has always been a swing/Republican State, and that’s where this began. I admit that most of the other states are Dem, but still the question remains, will (super)delegates concede to write-ins? I’m not as big of a history-buff as I would like to be, but isn’t that unprecedented(actual question, not rhetorical)? Having a write-in candidate being a majority or at least a sizeable percentage of the vote? Seems like it isn’t a very stable system of governance if they don’t recognize write-in votes as legitimate when they expressly allow it
