  • If the Democrats are truly worried about losing votes to a third party, they could adopt policies that actually reflect the values of those voters instead of just expecting us to fall in line.

    My vote isn’t driven by fear; it's driven by the need for real change, not the same old promises. If Harris loses by such a slim margin, it’s not the fault of third-party voters—it’s the Democrats’ failure to address the issues that matter to us.

    If only there was some way you and you compatriots could prevented this horror from happening by getting Harris the few votes she needed, distasteful as it might have been.

    It's not my job to "get" Harris or the democrats any votes. I don't like her and I won't be voting for her. That's the job of the democratic party.

    I'm voting for the candidate who I like. Just as you are free to vote for the candidate you like.

    That is correct. I won't be voting for him.

    That claim is absolutely ridiculous and nothing more than an over-the-top exaggeration. There’s no reality in which such extreme policies would be implemented, and statements like that just serve to fuel unnecessary fear and hysteria.

    CNN via (HBO)Max reporting that they found an AK-47 in the bushes:

    Law enforcement officials found a weapon and other items left behind by the suspect where he was positioned in the bushes near the Trump International Golf Club in South Florida on Sunday.

    “In the bushes, where this guy was, is an AK-47 style rifle with a scope; two backpacks, which were hung on the fence and had ceramic tile in them; and a GoPro. … So, those are being processed right now,” Palm Beach County Sheriff Ric Bradshaw said.

    Well, maybe don’t throw around accusations that I spend all my time posting about Jill Stein if you’re not actually willing to check the facts about it.

    All I know is that when I see Jill Stein show on my feed, it’s you posting it.

    That doesn't really mean I spend all my time posting about her or "pumping" out stuff about her, now does it?

    I also post a lot of libertarian articles to this community. I also post a lot of Claudia De la Cruz (socialist party) articles to this community. In fact, all of my posts to this community are about third parties.

    Are you mad about the number of pro-Harris articles that are posted here daily?! Because there are way more of those than ones of Jill Stein.

    Were you under the impression that this political news community was ONLY for pro-Harris news articles?! It's not. It's actually for political news discussion.

    Calm down, man. I'm not even voting for Jill Stein. I post news about third parties because I'm interested in third-party political news. She's third party. That's it. No vast conspiracy.

    Fratoj kaj Fratinoj, ni staras ĉe la rando de granda kaj danĝera limo, same kiel niaj antaŭuloj faris kiam ili konstruis la potencajn laborunuiojn, kiuj iam protektis laboristojn kontraŭ la dispremanta avideco de la kapitalisma klaso. La potenco de sindikatoj malfortiĝis en la lastaj jardekoj, kun membreco malkreskanta kaj entreprenoj sisteme subfosantaj la forton de kolektiva intertraktado.

    La neceso de organizita laboro fariĝas pli grava ol iam ajn. La pliiĝo de aŭtomatigo kaj artefarita inteligenteco, kaj la anstataŭigo de laboristoj, atingos nivelojn por kiuj neniu—precipe tiuj en povo—estas preparitaj.

    Niaj laboroj, niaj vivrimedoj, kaj la digno de homa laboro estas sub atako, kaj se ni ne staras, ni vidos estontecon, kie laboristoj estas rigardataj kiel senutilaj laŭ la okuloj de la kapitalisma elito. Rigardu ĉirkaŭen, ĝi jam komenciĝas.

    Aŭtomatigo kaj artefarita inteligenteco estas glorataj de la riĉuloj kiel la kulmino de novigo, promesante pli rapidan produktadon, malpli altajn laborkostojn, kaj pli grandajn profitojn.

    Sed lasu min diri al vi la veron. Ili promesas nur unu aferon: pli da potenco kaj riĉeco por tiuj, kiuj jam estas ĉe la supro, dum laboristoj estas forĵetataj kiel rubaĵo. Same kiel la industria revolucio estis uzita por ekspluati laboron en la 19-a kaj 20-a jarcentoj, AI kaj aŭtomatigo estas la novaj iloj de subpremo en la manoj de la hodiaŭaj entreprenaj oligarkoj.

    Fabrikejoj, magazenoj, kaj eĉ oficejoj estas readaptitaj ne por dungi homojn, sed por anstataŭigi ilin. Jam, ni vidas podetalajn laboristojn, kamionistojn, fabrikajn dungitojn, kaj eĉ klerikalan personaron perdi siajn laborojn, dum maŝinoj kaj algoritmoj transprenas iliajn rolojn. Tio ne estas progreso por la homaro—ĝi estas regresado por laboristoj.

    Brothers and Sisters, we stand at the edge of a great and dangerous frontier, just as our forefathers did when they built the mighty labor unions that once protected working people from the crushing greed of the capitalist class. The power of unions has weakened in the last several decades, with membership shrinking and corporations systematically undermining the strength of collective bargaining.

    The necessity of organized labor is about to become more critical than ever. The rise of automation and artificial intelligence, and the displacement of workers will reach levels that no one—least of all those in power—are prepared for.

    Our jobs, our livelihoods, and the dignity of human labor are under siege, and unless we take a stand, we'll see a future where workers are rendered obsolete in the eyes of the capitalist elite. Look around, it's already starting to happen.

    Automation and AI are being celebrated by the wealthy as the pinnacle of innovation, promising faster production, cheaper labor costs, and higher profits.

    But let me tell you the truth. They're only promising one thing: more power and wealth for those already at the top, while workers are tossed aside like garbage. Just as the industrial revolution was used to exploit labor in the 19th and 20th centuries, AI and automation are the new tools of oppression in the hands of today’s corporate oligarchs.

    Factories, warehouses, and even offices are being retooled not to employ people, but to replace them. Already, we're seeing retail workers, truck drivers, manufacturing employees, and even clerical staff losing their jobs as machines and algorithms take over their roles. This isn’t progress for humanity—it’s regression for workers.

    Of course, not all AI and automation are bad. These technologies, like any other tool, have the potential to improve society, to reduce drudgery, and to provide workers with more time for leisure and intellectual growth.

    But in the hands of capitalists, they serve only one purpose: to further marginalize the working class and concentrate wealth in the hands of a few.

    Billionaires don’t see automation as a way to make life easier for everyone; they see it as a way to cut costs and increase their profit margins by reducing the need for human labor.

    And what happens to us, the workers, when our labor is no longer needed? We’re thrown into the streets, replaced by machines, while the profits continue to flow upward.

    The time has come for us to reclaim the narrative, to demand that these advances in technology benefit everyone, not just the wealthy few. The future of labor will not be about holding onto the jobs of the past, but about fighting for the rights of all people in an economy where machines do much of the work.

    If we don’t act now, we will see a society where millions are unemployed, living in poverty, while the rich grow richer, profiting off the machines that replaced us. Our struggle is not just about better wages or fair working conditions anymore—it’s about ensuring that the benefits of technological progress are shared among all, not hoarded by the few.

    Unions must rise again to meet this challenge head-on. We need a new era of labor organization, one that recognizes the unique threats posed by automation and AI.

    Workers across all industries must come together to demand not just jobs, but a fair share of the wealth that these technologies create. We must push for laws that protect workers from being displaced without compensation, and for guarantees that retraining and new opportunities will be provided. We must ensure that no one is left behind in this technological revolution.

    This fight is not just about maintaining employment; it’s about human dignity in a world that increasingly views workers as expendable.

    The capitalist system is not prepared for the wave of displacement that’s coming.

    They will do what they’ve always done: use their wealth and power to protect themselves, while the rest of us suffer the consequences.

    We must take up the mantle of our ancestors, who fought and bled for the right to unionize, for the right to fair wages, and for the right to work with dignity. The fight for workers’ rights in the age of automation is the fight for the very soul of our society.

    If we do nothing, we will be crushed by the gears of progress. But if we rise, if we stand together, we will build a future where technology serves the people, not the profiteers.

    MONTREALO — Advokatoj reprezentantaj Tamara Lich kaj Chris Barber, du el la ĉefaj parolpersonoj de la Libereca Konvojo de kamionistoj en 2022, faris fermajn argumentojn en kortumo en Otavo la 23-an de aŭgusto. La proceso de Lich kaj Barber komenciĝis pasintan septembron. Iliaj argumentoj temis pri la defendo de la rajto je libera esprimo kaj protesto.

    Lich, eksa gvidanto de la partio Maverick en Alberto, kaj Barber, posedanto de malgranda kamionista kompanio en Saskaĉevano, estas akuzitaj pri malbonfarado, timigado kaj instigado de aliaj rompi la leĝon, akuzoj kiuj povus rezultigi 10-jaran malliberigon. La prokuroroj akuzis ilin kiel "kunkomplotoj."

    Ili estis arestitaj la 17-an de februaro 2022, du tagojn antaŭ ol la kanada registaro sendis 3,000 peze armitajn policanojn en la centron de Otavo por rompi la trisemajnan kampadon, kiun miloj da kamionistoj kaj iliaj subtenantoj starigis ĉirkaŭ la Parlamento. Ili postulis, ke la Liberala registaro de ĉefministro Justin Trudeau ĉesigu la vakcinajn limigojn de COVID, kiuj minacis iliajn laborpostenojn.

    La polica mobilizado, unu el la plej grandaj en kanada historio, estis plenumita laŭ la drakona Leĝo pri Urĝoj, invokita de Trudeau la 14-an de februaro sub la preteksto, ke la protesto estis minaco al publika ordo kaj "nacia sekureco." Pli ol 200 partoprenantoj estis arestitaj.

    Pasintjanuare federacia juĝisto regis, ke la uzado de la Leĝo pri Urĝoj kontraŭ la kamionistoj estis kontraŭleĝa kaj kontraŭkonstitucia, deklarante, ke ĝi malobservis la demokratiajn liberecojn garantiitajn en la Kanada Ĉarto pri Rajtoj kaj Liberecoj.

    La advokatoj de la registaro provas "krimigi la vortojn kaj agojn" de Lich kaj Barber, diris defenda advokato Lawrence Greenspon, kiam ili fakte konstante instigis paca konduto kaj kunlaboron kun la polico.

    La akuzo asertas, ke la alvoko de Lich al partoprenantoj por "teni la linion" dum la polico prepariĝis por sia atako instigis la kamionistojn malobei polican ordonojn por foriri. Sed ŝi estis arestita du tagojn antaŭ la polica ago, diris Greenspon, kiam "neniu tia linio ekzistis." La alvoko de Lich simple estis instigo por protestantoj "ne rezigni."

    Pli malfrue ĉi-monate registaraj advokatoj prezentos siajn finan argumentojn. Justulino Heather Perkins-McVey tiam havas ĝis ses monatojn por fari decidon.

    Aliaj kadraj procesoj en progreso Prokuroroj alvokis Pat King, alian gravan partoprenanton de la Libereca Konvojo, al Otavo el lia hejmo en Alberto, kie li estis sub hejmaresto dum pli ol du jaroj. Li transcedis sin kaj estis enkarcerigita en Otavo la 31-an de julio, akuzita pri malobservado de siaj kaŭciaj kondiĉoj pro afiŝado de informoj pri la kazo en sociaj retoj.

    Li denove estis liberigita sur kaŭcio la 9-an de aŭgusto, sed alfrontis malpermeson pri sociaj retoj, "en ĉiuj formoj." Skandala kortuma ordono deklaras, ke neniu alia rajtas afiŝi en sociaj retoj en lia nomo. King ne povas partopreni publikajn protestojn nek komuniki kun Lich, Barber aŭ aliaj konvojaj gvidantoj.

    Kaŭciaj kondiĉoj por King, Lich, Barber kaj multaj aliaj konvojaj partoprenantoj alfrontantaj akuzojn estis eksterordinare restriktaj, celante silentigi ilin, rompi ilian bataleman spiriton kaj servi kiel averto al aliaj inklinaj protesti publike kontraŭ registaraj politikoj.

    La proceso de King pri multaj krimaj akuzoj simile al tiuj kontraŭ Lich kaj Barber finiĝis fine de julio. Verdikto en lia kazo estas atendata la 4-an de oktobro.

    En alia kazo de la Libereca Konvojo, registaraj prokuroroj estis devigitaj retiri akuzojn la 2-an de aŭgusto kontraŭ Benjamin Spicer post kiam Justulo Timothy Lipson regis, ke lia aresto la 19-an de februaro 2022 dum la polica atako estis kontraŭleĝa.

    "Ne ekzistas indico, ke s-ro Spicer faris ion ajn kontraŭleĝan, kiu pravigis lin esti detenita sur la tero kaj submetita al fizika forto," skribis Lipson. "Mi trovis, ke estis multoblaj malobservadoj de la Ĉarto-rajtoj de s-ro Spicer, kaj ĉiu malobservo laŭ mi estas serioza."

    "Falsaj akuzoj kaj 'komploto'-akuzoj, kiuj krimigas la parolatan kaj skribitan vorton, delonge estis uzataj de la kapitalismaj regantoj de Kanado por enprizonigi batalantojn de la laborista klaso kaj sindikataj aktivuloj," diris Katy LeRougetel, kandidato de la Komunista Ligo en la federacia kromelekto la 16-an de septembro en Montrealo, al The Militant. "La sindikatoj kaj ĉiuj defendantoj de demokrataj liberecoj devas postuli la finon de la procesoj kontraŭ la Libereca Konvojo kaj la nuligon de ĉiuj akuzoj kontraŭ la partoprenantoj de la konvojo."

    Fratoj kaj fratinoj, ni troviĝas ĉe la vojkruciĝo de historio, same kiel la Nigraj Panteroj faris en la 1970-aj jaroj, kiam ili leviĝis kun kuraĝo kaj defio por alfronti la brutalajn fortojn de kapitalismo kaj blanka superregado kapon al kapo.

    Ili komprenis, ke potenco neniam cedas volonte, kaj nek faros la kapitalismaj subpremantoj, kiuj prosperas sur la ekspluatado de la laborista klaso. Ni devas esti tiel senkompataj kiel ili, ne ŝancelantaj en niaj postuloj por justeco, egaleco, kaj vera liberiĝo.

    La status quo ne estas ia nepra forto de naturo—ĝi estas sistemo konstruita sur la dorsoj de laboristoj, subtenata de avideco kaj perforto, kaj ĝi povas esti disfaligita per la forto de unuiĝinta, klas-konscia movado.

    Sed ni ne povas permesi al ni la lukson de timo aŭ hezito.

    Niaj subpremantoj, la entreprena elito kaj iliaj politikaj marionetoj, profitas de niaj dividoj, tenante nin katenitaj en salajra sklaveco dum ili amasigas la riĉecon, kiun ni gajnis per nia ŝvito kaj sango. Kiel la Panteroj antaŭ ni, ni devas organizi, rezisti, kaj kontraŭstari.

    Ĉi tiu sistemo ne disfalos memstare; ĝi estos malkonstruita nur per la manoj de la popolo. Lasu ilian timon de nia potenco esti nia brulaĵo.

    Ni leviĝas por niaj rajtoj, por la rajtoj de niaj kamaradoj, kaj por la estontaj generacioj. La tempo por duon-mezuroj finiĝis—revolucio estas ne nur necesa, ĝi estas neevitebla.

    Staru firme, amikoj, ĉar la estonteco apartenas al tiuj sufiĉe kuraĝaj por preni ĝin.

    La mensogo, ke usonanoj estas nature kontraŭ socialismo, estas nenio alia ol provo forviŝi la potencan heredaĵon de socialisma lukto en ĉi tiu lando!

    De la laborstrikoj ĝis la civitanrajta movado, nia historio estas trempita en la sango kaj ŝvito de tiuj, kiuj batalis por justeco, por la laborista klaso!

    Artisto Tovarisch (https://x.com/nwbtcw) kaptas ĉi tiun revolucian spiriton en serio de afiŝoj, kiuj memorigas nin: socialismo ne estas fremda—ĝi estas en niaj ostoj!
