Yes, you are right.

To clarify, when I say independent, I mean independent from the duopoly.

Bernie is an Independent, but he is always running cover for Democrats, even though he talks like a revolutionary with his pseudo-populism.

I agree!

An independent movement for the working class is required.

We tried to push Bernie Sanders to leave the duopoly, but we failed.

It seems AOC is following the same failed attempts on purpose, out of ignorance, or to further her political career, similar to Obama.

AOC ran on being a one-term politician; that has dramatically changed.

Obama ran on hope and change, then became a president that increased drone bombings in the Middle East and a continuation of the status quo.

We must not forget the past US elections and where they got us.

We must not forget the past.

It is important to know the history of past US elections.

Sabby is highlighting the concerning similarities to Obama’s political career and Bernie Sanders’ presidential runs.

I think it is important to inform people instead of being apologetic and celebrity worshippers.

We must always be highly critical of governments and those with power/influence, especially politicians.

Awesome, thanks for sharing this song with us!

“We can confirm the reporting that Chang Guang Satellite Technology Company Limited is directly supporting Iran-backed Houthi terrorist attacks on U.S. interests,” State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce told a regular news briefing.

I wonder if they got this information from the same people that said Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia is MS-13 and Mahmoud Khalil is Hamas.

Iran, Russia, and China are all a part of BRICS and conduct military drills together. It would be better if our government learned some diplomacy and stopped our decades of aggression.

Col. Douglas Abbott Macgregor talks about Iran, China, and Russia.^[1]

Edit:

1. Misspelled name, changed Col. Douglas MacGregor to Col. Douglas Abbott Macgregor

It is always a surprise that people fall for these smears—Chinese, Russia, Iran, Hamas (preferred boogeyman every time it comes up).

These smears continue to be US military propaganda so as to justify the wars, similar to all the ones we were in after 9/11, which were based on lies, but it was enough to stir the country into invading and bombing the Middle East for decades.^[1]

Russian apologist

No one ever brings up Israeli agents and apologists, where you can see which politicians openly receive bribes through Open Secrets.

Let us ignore Israel and continue to believe US military propaganda so we can continue these forever wars, where the owner class continues to profit from the working class being slaughtered.

Ah, true!

Thanks for taking the time to explain it to me!

Hahaha!

Why Bateman…?

Why not Morgan Freeman’s voice?

It’s a YouTube thumbnail with Epstein, Whitney Webb, and Diddy.

The Sabby Sabs editor that created it would know much more about why they created it a certain way, like the many other thumbnails in her other videos.

I provided a direct link to the article, which is a 70-min read.

Sabby Sabs goes over some sections she thinks are important.

Clive Davis is important in that Diddy learned everything from him because they were used against Diddy, and then Diddy did that to other young artists.

Sabby goes into the artists were pushed to promote violence in their music so as to increase mass incarceration, which the companies were highly invested in for-profit prisons.

Anyway, it ties back to the rampant organized crime within the music industry (shell companies), and a certain alphabet agency of the government is involved in spreading drugs and guns in Black communities.

Combs, from the early 1990s onward, appears to have been a key frontman for this network and its ambitions. He was likely not the sole mastermind or beneficiary of all of the scandalous parties, sexual violence, public promotion of violence, and alleged blackmail in which he engaged. He was a product of a network and a system that –– in the case of Combs –– was seeking to target and corrupt the broader African-American community in similar ways. Ultimately, Combs, like some other prominent entertainers, was servile to his music industry masters. He worked within a system those masters controlled and attempted to expand his own influence and power within that system, but –– at the end of the day –– he was never in charge.

In the next installment of this series, we will explore Combs’ expanding influence in hip-hop and also in other industries, like retail, again all courtesy of the very same network outlined in this piece. While Combs publicly projected power and success, both of those things were conditional and, like Epstein, now exposed, he is due to take the fall in order to take the heat off of the people behind the curtain.^[1]

Inteview with Whitney Webb: Whitney Webb EXPOSES ALL The Connections Revealed By the P. Diddy Case [13:37 | APR 12 2025 | Katie Halper] https://lemmy.world/post/28151673

Read the title.

Read the body.

Where does it say it is a song…

I made it easy for people to understand what the post is about.

All is well, peace.

He says to organize around specific issues, like workers’ rights, instead of having broad political arguments.

Whether they are Donald Trump supporters, Biden supporters, third-party supporters, independents, or nonvoters, we can be brought together to improve working conditions and for general strikes.

Chris Smalls did this when he created the Amazon Labor Union (ALU).

Edit: improved sentence flow and added all political groups

I see Richard Wolff; I upvote.

Bernie Sanders, the Justice Democrats, the Working Families Party, and Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) are a failed experiment.

We need an independent grassroots movement by and for the working class.

Check out Workers Strike Back.

For those interested:

We need to build an organized, unified movement of working people to systematically take on the rich who run society, and to undermine their ability to rule. Our goal must be to both fight for radical change in the present and to bring down the billionaires and their system. There is no other path to avoid total disaster for human civilization and the planet.

Working people need to be clear about who our enemies are. Our enemies are not other working-class or middle-class people, immigrants, the poor, Muslims, trans people, ordinary Republican or Democratic voters, nor independent voters or nonvoters. Our enemies are those who make millions or billions of dollars a year, own the politicians, own the land and resources, and who call the shots in this system. Our enemies are also those who justify and protect the interests of the rich.

The billionaires themselves are fully responsible for the disasters engulfing us — Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, the healthcare CEOs, the major shareholders on Wall Street. It is not some collective “we” or “human nature” which is responsible; it’s the rich who put their profits ahead of everything and everyone. We need to end the billionaire class and their system once and for all.^[1]

Well, the background is something that everyone should know or learn about.

I was reminded of Max Blumenthal talking about it.

Awesome!

AOC and others from the Justice Democrats won seats, so it is feasible.

I see them as a failed experiment that needed to be conducted.

Good luck and best wishes!

There are many third parties.

They also have debates.^[1]

I think third parties need to collaborate with each other to bring the working class together.

It won’t be easy going against the duopoly; it never is. For example, we would just need to look at the trouble the Green Party has had to go through from past elections.

I would also like to see more third parties in discussions with each other while also going to talk with independent media and with political commentators.

Some of the third parties that are independent from the duopoly are:

1. Green Party
2. Libertarian Party
3. Party for Socialism & Liberation
4. American Communist Party (ACP)

It is always exciting when hearing about new third parties that are outside of the duopoly.

I think third parties need to collaborate with each other to bring the working class together.

We infiltrate the Democrat Party, get ranked voting in each state, then burst out of their chest

The Justice Democrats, the Working Families Party, and Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) failed at this.

The system changes you; you don’t change the system within.

A party that is for the working class must be independent from the duopoly, not within it.
