I’ve been saying since last year that I don’t expect shortages to ever go away again, this is just going to be an expected part of everyday life now. The collapse has started, it’s just going to keep slowly picking up steam

I’ve been thinking about this a lot recently and, honestly, if we want to actually develop some kind of dual power, the work needs to be done now to start establishing supplies and connections to working class people. If we aren’t all working as much as we possibly can to do this, in this moment, then, when this whole thing bottoms out, the opportunity to win over the working class and build dual power will fly right by us, and fascism and reaction will only grow further. And the situation is already balanced at the tip of a knife anyways.

This is probably going to happen because orgs strong enough to take advantage of the moment don’t exist right now.

In bad country, there are massive shortages of consumer goods and huge waiting lists.

People not being able to afford basic necessities like food leads to unrest, no?

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
