Late Stage Capitalism

BlackRock and other asset managers are profiting off of every aspect of your life.

They claim they’re just passive investors, but they're concentrating money and power in the hands of a few ultra-rich people.

It's not a conspiracy — it's an open restructuring of society.

Heritage Foundation bipartisan bill.

Even where there is no prospect of achieving their election the workers must put up their own candidates to preserve their independence, to gauge their own strength and to bring their revolutionary position and party standpoint to public attention. They must not be led astray by the empty phrases of the democrats, who will maintain that the workers’ candidates will split the democratic party and offer the forces of reaction the chance of victory. All such talk means, in the final analysis, that the proletariat is to be swindled. The progress which the proletarian party will make by operating independently in this way is infinitely more important than the disadvantages resulting from the presence of a few reactionaries in the representative body. If the forces of democracy take decisive, terroristic action against the reaction from the very beginning, the reactionary influence in the election will already have been destroyed.

The lie that Americans are inherently against socialism is nothing more than an attempt to erase the powerful legacy of socialist struggle in this country!

From the labor strikes to the civil rights movement, our history is drenched in the blood and sweat of those who fought for justice, for the working class!

Artist Tovarisch (https://x.com/nwbtcw) captures this revolutionary spirit in a series of posters that remind us: socialism is not foreign—it's in our bones!

The fight for a just future rages on!
