Capitalist society creates two classes: the working class and the ruling class. With the rise of industrial capitalism, peasants were driven from the land and pushed into factories—giving birth to the proletariat. Small proprietors and tradespeople were crushed by monopolies and absorbed into the working class.

The proletariat cannot create wealth on its own and must sell its labour to survive. The ruling class, owning the means of production, profits by paying workers less than the value they produce. The cheaper the labour, the higher the profit.

This is the central contradiction of capitalism: a constant struggle between those who produce everything and those who own everything. The ruling class needs workers to survive. The working class has no need for parasites.

Capitalism is built on exploitation. When workers take control of production, the basis for class oppression disappears.

Labour-power was not always a commodity (merchandise). Labour was not always wage-labour, i.e., free labour. The slave did not sell his labour-power to the slave-owner, any more than the ox sells his labour to the farmer. The slave, together with his labour-power, was sold to his owner once for all. He is a commodity that can pass from the hand of one owner to that of another. He himself is a commodity, but his labour-power is not his commodity. The serf sells only a portion of his labour-power. It is not he who receives wages from the owner of the land; it is rather the owner of the land who receives a tribute from him. The serf belongs to the soil, and to the lord of the soil he brings its fruit. The free labourer, on the other hand, sells his very self, and that by fractions. He auctions off eight, 10, 12, 15 hours of his life, one day like the next, to the highest bidder, to the owner of raw materials, tools, and the means of life – i.e., to the capitalist. The labourer belongs neither to an owner nor to the soil, but eight, 10, 12, 15 hours of his daily life belong to whomsoever buys them. The worker leaves the capitalist, to whom he has sold himself, as often as he chooses, and the capitalist discharges him as often as he sees fit, as soon as he no longer gets any use, or not the required use, out of him. But the worker, whose only source of income is the sale of his labour-power, cannot leave the whole class of buyers, i.e., the capitalist class, unless he gives up his own existence. He does not belong to this or that capitalist, but to the capitalist class; and it is for him to find his man – i.e., to find a buyer in this capitalist class.

Within the first month of the illegal invasion of Iraq🇮🇶, an estimated 15,000 people were killed. The war would go on to kill 1 million Iraqis in the following years.

George W. Bush and Tony Blair lied to the world about evidence they claimed they had that Saddam Hussein had WMDs, to date, none have been found. They also lied about Saddam having links to Al-Qaeda, ironically a decade later, the current National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan would admit to Hillary Clinton that Al-Qaeda was on the same side as the US in Syria.

To this day, no Western politician has been held accountable for war crimes, and no arrest warrants have been issued.

Class Traitor.

The most repulsive thing I've seen in a while is Katy Perry talking about the beauty of a pointless space trip.

The New Shepherd launch pad costs an estimated £1 billion to make and the Blue Origin aerospace company costs £100 million annually.
Imagine the amount of homes that could be purchased for those in need instead of Jeff Bezos sending shite singers into space.

"We have held, and do hold, that war is a relic of barbarism only possible because we are governed by a ruling class with barbaric ideas."
