For anyone who cares, it looks like the last functioning hospital in the #Gaza Strip is about to be invaded. This whole episode and the willingness of major powers to arm and encourage it will be a moral stain on the #DemocraticParty, the US, and the EU for generations to come.

@AlexanderKingsbury Capitalism literally forces aquiescence. There is no coöperation between the owners of capital, and hence power, and those with little alternative but to accept what crumbs are offered from his table to serve him.

And the argument for the strong surviving is made constantly by capitalist theorists and apologists. I made this post because the one I put up yesterday was greeted with that exact argument. yawn
