Youssef Bouchi writes on the importance of American socialism from his perspective as an Arab immigrant in Canada:

“Grassroots movements in the U.S. already understand this […] Our task from the outside is to support them.”

    i’d say us socialism is not possible right now and won’t for a while until they do the work to build it. it could collapse too, for any reason. either one works for us.

    in either hypothetical situation, they wouldn’t be practicing imperialism. by either direct violence or through proxies, or excercising the economic control only a nation that owns the world’s currency can. and other ways.

    most successful communist revolutions on the planet were squashed by some kind of meddling by western imperial forces. we would be freer to determine our own future.

    isso se aplica aqui no brasil também, joão goulart foi deposto pelo golpe justamente por estar ‘dando direitos demais’. o golpe teve apoio da burguesia estadunidense, através da cia. eles ainda mantém um certo controle sobre nós, e não gostam de ver a gente dar um passo sequer pela libertação.
