This space exists to share news, analysis, and discussion rooted in socialism, anarchy, and socialist anarchism.
The focus is on strengthening the militant, conscious layer of the working class—of which we are a part—so it's better equipped to understand the world, draw lessons from the history of working-class struggle, and recognize its own power and responsibility.
The aim is to help build a clear path toward the overthrow of capitalism and the fight for political power from below.
Like the SWP, we support independent working-class political action and reject both capitalist parties—the Democrats and Republicans—as enemies of real liberation.

Oh, no doubt about it, change is coming for everything. Just the hard manual labor stuff is a little farther away. Right now "data manager" jobs and coding and white collar jobs are going first. Then warehouse. Delivery is coming up. It will eventually get to construction and plumbing, but those will be the last jobs automation takes based on how they are done.
And we shouldn't wait until they can replace the jobs to start getting UBI rolled out right now. Because the time is coming. Fast. Regardless of how many Lemmy's screech out, "Oh, but ai sucks at coding" lol
