People's Union USA, with founder John Schwarz, is initiating a nationwide boycott against Walmart that starts today.

"Schwarz has cited federal income tax opposition, equality issues, high prices, and a bid to help smaller local businesses as factors behind the blackout."

The right: “Communism is unacceptable, you don’t own anything”
Capitalism:
- every products use a subscription model
- renting costs half the price of the physical medium of few years ago
- you don’t own things you buy, you have a license to use it
The right: *cricket*

The information war against the USSR was waged throughout its entire existence and continues to be waged after its collapse. What myths were and are being spread about the USSR? Who, why, and at whose expense is conducting bourgeois propaganda? #socialism #communism #capitalism #marxism #leninism #marxismleninism youtube.com/live/XP1FzU34GIE

Marx explained this in The Communist Manifesto: "Communism deprives no man of the power to appropriate the products of society; all that it does is to deprive him of the power to subjugate the labour of others by means of such appropriations."

I found this video/lecture excellent. Years and years ago I read The Communist Manifesto and sorta understood it. But this is a great orientation to what it actually was and is within its historical context and why it keeps coming back every so often as a popular read. I'm curious, is it becoming (or has it already) become popular once again?
