How big is space? Space is really big. Thinking about our solar system, let’s imagine you could get in a car and drive to Pluto at highway speeds. It would take you about 6,000 years to get there. When we start to think about other stars outside of our solar system, we need to think […]
Rafael Correa: Evaluating the success or failure of the Cuban economic model, disregarding a criminal blockade of more than 50 years, is pure hypocrisy. Any capitalist country in Latin America would collapse within a few months of a similar blockade. wordsmith.social/protestation/…
Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.
Democritus: Not from fear but from a sense of duty refrain from your sins.
Democritus: Many who have not learned wisdom live wisely, and many who do the basest deeds can make most learned speeches.
Democritus: Fools learn wisdom through misfortune.
Democritus: Strength of body is nobility in beasts of burden, strength of character is nobility in men.
Democritus: Neither art nor wisdom may be attained without learning.
Democritus: It is better to correct your own faults than those of another.
Democritus: Good means not (merely) not to do wrong, but rather not to desire to do wrong.
Democritus: Fame and wealth without wisdom are unsafe possessions.
Muammar Gaddafi: We will not surrender. We will defeat them by any means. We are ready for the fight, whether it will be a short or a long one. We will be victorious in the end. This assault is by a bunch of fascists who will end up in the dustbin of history.
Democritus: By convention sweet is sweet, bitter is bitter, hot is hot, cold is cold, color is color; but in truth there are only atoms and the void.
Democritus: We know nothing accurately in reality, but (only) as it changes according to the bodily condition, and the constitution of those things that flow upon (the body) and impinge upon it.
Democritus: Medicine heals diseases of the body, wisdom frees the soul from passions.
Democritus: Immoderate desire is the mark of a child, not a man.
Democritus: Men have fashioned an image of Chance as an excuse for their own stupidity.
Democritus: In a shared fish, there are no bones.
Democritus: Education is an ornament for the prosperous, a refuge for the unfortunate.
Democritus: The animal needing something knows how much it needs, the man does not.
Democritus: Moderation multiplies pleasures, and increases pleasure.
Democritus: If your desires are not great, a little will seem much to you; for small appetite makes poverty equivalent to wealth.
Democritus: No power and no treasure can outweigh the extension of our knowledge.
Democritus: In fact we do not know anything infallibly, but only that which changes according to the condition of our body and of the (influences) that reach and impinge upon it.
Democritus: Of practical wisdom these are the three fruits: to deliberate well, to speak to the point, to do what is right.
Democritus: 'Tis not in strength of body nor in gold that men find happiness, but in uprightness and in fulness of understanding.
Democritus: He who does wrong is more unhappy than he who suffers wrong.
Samuel P. Huntington: The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion (to which few members of other civilizations were converted) but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
Marjori Palmer: One of the most morale-damaging aspects of the inflation was the "sack of Germany" that occurred at the height of the (1923) inflation. Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements of German society: and left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, a breeding ground for the disasters which have followed. Hitler is the foster child of the inflation.
Lenin: There is no trace of utopianism in Marx, in the sense that he made up or invented a 'new' society. No, he studied the birth of the new society out of the old, and the forms of transition from the latter to the former, as a natural-historical process. He examined the actual experience of a proletarian mass movement and tried to draw practical lessons from it.
Che Guevara: Many will call me an adventurer - and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his platitudes.
Democritus: The first principles of the universe are atoms and empty space; everything else is merely thought to exist.
Bertolt Brecht: Lenin is enshrined In the large heart of the working class.

The sales drop follows customers pulling back on spending because of concerns over tariffs and boycotts over Target's diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives, many of which the company scaled back in January, The Associated Press reported.
Usually when Cabinet secretaries come to testify before Congress about budgets, they're seeking more money. But that's not the case with Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
Secretary of State Rubio’s testimony on Tuesday shows the Trump administration wants to return the State Department to its core function in implementing U.S. foreign policy.
The "One Big Beautiful Bill" that President Donald Trump personally lobbied Congress to pass Tuesday delivers on decades of conservative wishes, but first it must survive bickering over two very different issues: deductions for high-tax state voters and the size of spending cuts in an era of record debt.
The bill funds and codifies many of President's priorities and could help GOP approval on Capitol Hill at a time when many voters aren't pleased by lack of progress.
The fifth of 10 inmates who escaped a New Orleans jail last week after ripping a toilet from a jail cell wall has been captured, authorities reported late Tuesday night.
George Washington University banned a graduate from campus after she gave a speech at a college graduation ceremony that was critical of the university and Israel.
5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals judge is criticizing the Supreme Court for blocking President Trump's deportations of two allegedly illegal Venezuelan migrants under the Alien Enemies Act.
Even a “great tactician” such as Benjamin Netanyahu cannot market genocide as a victory, writes Ramzy Baroud. Nor can a disreputable and dysfunctional army secure a strategic triumph.

The fact that World leaders are kow-towing to this mad man and not shutting him out is maddening. Because seriously, if all the world leaders (other than Putin and Kim) told him to fuck off, it would kill him.

Because a worker would not be able to support all that bollox. If he was really that great why is he not working for himself? That is the reality, today no one has any loyalty to their job so there is far less profit and people get paid less. You are not going to get paid more than you earn so you must work and the business must make money or you do not have a job. More people should work for themselves and stop whining that someone else owes them a living because they do not.
If I could believe that you enjoyed your fantasy I would be happy but you do not so I see you as sad. Your contention is absurd so you cannot believe it yet you continue to espouse it as if it is worthy of serious debate. An employer is due a percentage of the employee's salary and if he takes too much the worker will leave and he gets nothing. That is the nature of capitalism. In communism the worker has no rights and is assigned to a job. That is the nature of communism. There is also anarchy but that is for the absolutely crazy. I know which system I am happy to be a part of.
I completely agree that we should always strive to improve the system and make it more fair having lived a long life I have seen great improvements in the environment and hope that will continue but doubt it given the propaganda is pushing people toward extremely poluting answers like electric cars that do far more harm to the environment but are short lifespan throw away items so make fantastic profits although no one can afford the cost so everyone loses. I do believe that people will demand the change required rather than the government who are only there for the massive financial gains, will provide a better way. I do not believe there is a better system but I agree that we should not stop demanding improvement. Only if those in power believe they are going to be thrown off the gravy train will they do anything about the banks etc. They can do it but it only takes what to a bank is loose change as a bribe and any change is forgotten.
