I can't possibly explain how awful it is to see the overwhelming support for Palestine on the ground in America while not seeing that reflected in our administration at all. The powerlessness. I did more this election cycle than I ever have in 36 years to engage with what was going on around me, by protesting, phone banking, raising awareness, donating, etc. All for all of it to mean nothing. On election day I went out for dinner to take some of the edge off, and all I heard around me at the tables of a Greek restaurant in Kansas City, Missouri were other white people talking about the devastation in Gaza. A poll worker who sat at a table beside me told his friends about an experience he had that day, when a mother with three young children showed up at the poll, made a straight line to him and asked, "Who can I vote for to stop the genocide?" She was hoping to get a down-ballot list. I've lost so many friends who turned out to be Zionists. My mother is a liberal Christian Zionist. I have to remind myself that the majority hold feelings that are more in line with my own. If nothing else, even if too few people showed up to keep Trump out of office, at least I know the reason was a good one.
It is making a difference. The genocide is the result of an entrenched system that was severely disrupted. Reaping the fruit of this change in American consciousness requires continued work, and it's going to get there.
You live in the imperial core, in enemy territory surrounded by all kinds of vile reactionaries. t’s ok to feel powerless in such a situation, but remember that there are billions in the Global South that are with you. Keep fighting the good fight.
@@catw807 Things are still ultimately moving forward. Both the US and Israel are losing strength. Keep your political engagement going, study theory, engage in self-criticism, and do your best to help organise the working class and undermine capitalism. It might not look like it, but it will pay off.
Truly deep levels of professionality! Will we ever see a video conserning AES, specifically the CPC? Mainland history is very complicated and it would be nice to have a better grasp on it.
Didnt realize the 1 in 3 and 1 in 5 communist favorability. That's... Huge. Bigger than I expected. I hope to god I see some kind of socialist thing to rid this capitalist contagion. The capitalistic intent over the decades, and sped up a bit faster from Trump because of his overtness will radicalize many I believe.
@ all listeners and viewers: Please start looking into the Revolutionary Communist Party in your respective country and organize. Go to a meeting and see if this is something you want to support in any way.
If, theoretically, a comrade were to join the RCA, would they be considered misled over its ties to Trot theory? Because said comrade has expressed that at this point world and permanent revolution appears external to theoretical education to be the only ideal compatible with preventing the return of all of this ever again - socialist economic competitive realities in a capitalist world aside.
15:00 Israel has a population of 9.57 million people. The majority of US states (40 of them) have smaller populations than that. I'm in no way trying to defend Israel nor the amount the US supports them; just doing a quick fact correction.
@@angryyordle4640 Socialism will come to the global south, in the Imperial Core our job is going to be to oppose the inevitable war machine that will be mobilized by our ruling class, by any means necessary. And they do cover socialist movements around the world in the podcast - but there are very many and it would take lifetimes of study to become knowledgeable on them all. They bring on guests from time to time to tell us about the socialist movements in their own countries. Countering American propaganda and exposing the empire for what it truly is, and how it really operates, is something they come back to a lot, but it's an important task, and one that is relevant pretty much everywhere in the world, because of the pervasiveness of US media and culture. It's spread like a canсér evereywhere.
Yes of course there are US states smaller in population than Israel. Israel is bigger in population than 40 out of the 50 US states. At least do a quick google search before you say stuff like that. Israel is an incredibly densely populated country and on the other hand some cities on this planet have suburbs larger in population than the huge state of Wyoming.
Hello there! This is my third time asking this. I am looking for a job & am trying to find one with as much social mobility as possible. I hope this does not come at the expense of another individual. I remember seeing a previous video saying "non-traditional jobs" (e.g. content creation) were the closest thing to the American Dream (higher mobility). I hope to eventually make my own MMO video game (which depicts a Star Trek style society) for Ninja Kiwi, which I heard is one of the more respectable devs. It would be nice to know what starting career choices I should suggest to my job search program for these purposes. Thank You! (Sorry again for the long comment)
Repeated Addendum: In light of the recent plane crashes, I am considering a possible air traffic control job prior to trying to make a game to inspire societal change. (towards a Trek type post scarcity society)
I can't wait for the special episode where Hakim's bleeps are all revealed.
That's on means tv

@lulianjuliuswassbach Leaving a comment here because I also want to know

I saw the "bye bye biden" title and I clicked on it hoping it would be an obituary. Great commentary, but alas the bastard still is using our oxygen.
Hakim i yearn for you
We all do
#FreeHakim
Ever heard of respect and professionalism?!
@A.Z.S.GXZ777 haha welcome to the internet, buddy.
The big cheeto is back & his skin is baggier than ever.

Missed opportunity to call the episode “Bye Bye-den”
Goodbye Brandon, my sweet clueless prince. My the flames of Xibalba warm you forever ♥️

Don't get sad GET MAD

Nice try Bob
The Iron foam :
yugo will be missed... rest in peace brother
Wait, what? Did he die?
@07Flash11MRC he's not in the episode...💔💔it's a natural conclusion
6:35 - 7:10 Does somebody have the link to that poll? I need it to shut up some liberal friends of mine.
I feel like I am being forced to subscribe on patreon now 😂 I'm here for it. I feel like I need you guys more than ever
So based for the um kulthoum poster
It's joever
It is really strange that RUclips is bleeping out your video visual for a good amount of time. It's nothing but a black screen.
If Isreal was a us state, it would be the 11th biggest state at 9.75 million people.
Unless you expand on that. You just made a useless statement. People can’t read your brain on whatever you’re trying to imply.
If?
It's not a state. It's some sort of autonomous protectorate.
If Israel was a legitimate state, which it isn't.
Do yall not post weekly anymore?
Algorithmic engagement happening

Fortunately it seems you didn't get very far before the number skip was noticed, it looks like you skipped episode 164
My man u should really be following the fall of the empire since they're doing everything by themselves
Why is your podcast so americacentric btw?
Aimed at am English speaking audience.
because thats where the deprogramming is most desperately needed

@@angryyordle4640 I don't understand what you mean? Why would it not be needed in the most propagandized place on earth?
Why give up part of the episode feed us poor piggy’s better pls
If its gonna be a damn add, put that in the title. If i listen to another sneak peak thinking its the real episode im going to unsubscribe

I don't know where you got the idea that Israel has a smaller population than any US state.
