News-reading Americans know about Yemen war plans being leaked on a Signal chat. How many of them know Obama’s bombing of Yemen led to the largest modern cholera outbreak in US history? That destroying Yemen has been a commitment of “both” parties for over a decade?

Joshua Citarella is an interesting guy. I’ve watched several of his interview-podcasts recently. He’s an artist and a socialist and he writes a lot about…I dunno how to describe it…kinda about young people online who have lost faith in the political system.

Anyway, here he talks about one of his little books about the memes online leftists have created after the first trump term.

I heard historian Roy Casagranda (who i listen to a lot) say this:
“In 1973, the top 1 percent had 8 percent of the wealth, today the top 1 percent makes 40 percent of the wealth…and then the next 15 percent make another 40, so the top 16 percent of amerika make 80 percent of the wealth…”

Casagranda is asked why the labor movement didnt win the fight to keep all the new deal stuff going. Why the shift to the Right in the US?
