Let's be clear about the 2024 United States Presidential Election.

Anyone running in either the Democratic or Republican brands is beholden to the US capitalist ruling class - no exceptions.

And it doesn't matter how 'progressive' or how much of an 'outsider' they claim to be.

In my time living in this country, I've seen 25 years of corruption and large powerful entities like corporations, the rich, the powerful, the MIC, the establishment media, endlessly tilt things in the favor of their shareholders/donors/investors/owners.

Private profit and greed over public benefit and need - that's capitalism from day one.

In this regard, 'Democrat' and 'Republican', 'Blue No Matter Who' vs 'MAGA Red', liberal vs conservative, are nothing really more different than what is seen in professional wrestling.

Pick your babyface, pick you heel. Pick who you choose to root for.

It's all scripted. The heels and babyfaces are paid by the same promoter, and they make all the money. Everything else is theater.

So this idea that Candidate A, or Candidate B in either 'brand' has any real chance of really improving things for the majority of people is a complete scam because US capitalism doesn't allow for that at all because of the control maintained by the ruling class.

In this capitalist system, only the threat of mass action by a large group of people can force change to happen. And even then, the system will try to obfuscate, delay, de-rail any change. Or, if they can't stop it, they'll try to weaken it, challenge it in court, or buy off enough politicians in the system to roll it back, or have it declared illegal, and thus destroyed.

The reality is ... capitalism is what holds the planet back from a better future for all, and holds us back from taking any meaningful action to survive its greatest threat -> climate change.

And make no mistake ... it's ruling class would like nothing better than to replace the system as well. They just want a system that consolidates their power, eliminates things like choice or democracy, and permanently transfers people's wealth, belongings, and power over to them. This is called fascism.

So we as a planet have a choice in view of a collapsing system of capitalism ... 

  • The one the ruling class is moving to implement.
  • A system that serves the interests of all and saves us from our own pending destruction.

Time is running out. Choose wisely and soon.
