Man what the gently caress happened to Jacobin? Three years ago they were doing really good informative pieces on the old Socialist party and now we're getting this poo poo.

why do you think a civil war is more likely than a military coup enforced by right wing death squads? not that i think even this is likely, but this is what america has exported all across the world. it is our specialty, really.

it's pretty clear to me what happened, at some point jacobin became an organization for enriching and raising the profile of sunkara, as evidenced by their union busting

Not going to lie, I didn't expect TYT to endorse Bernie considering how hard they have been stanning for Warren. I'm guessing they looked at who supports Bernie demographically and who watches their videos and did the math. I'd bet the fact that every time in the last few weeks Warren has been asked any question that wasn't a slow pitch softball directly in her wheelhouse a bowl winding turd spiraled out of her mouth helped tip the scales a bit too.

Sunkara and his merry band of reformist socdems calling Lula and Evo neoliberals but telling left critics of Sanders to shut the hell up and get in line is particularly galling with recent events.

“I believe that what we’re doing right now with [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] focusing on people who do not pose a threat, that when ICE comes into our communities, takes our neighbors, our friends, our family members, that they do not make this country safer,” Warren said.

“And that we need ICE and Customs and Border Patrol just focused on real threats from terrorism, container shipping that comes into the United States, contraband that we have to worry about, fentanyl that we need to be focused on. There are places that we should focus for our safety, but tearing families apart is not that.”

I still read and share Jacobin pieces because it really pisses off one shitlib Facebook friend from college.

It pisses him off a lot that Jacobin exists. His meltdowns rule.

The Ninja turtles comic is dope rn next issue is #100 and it's about the turtles, who are the reincarnations of four Feudal Japan children, teaming back up with splinter, the reincarnation of their father, to fight a resurrected shredder, who has died twice now and is about to become the vessel for some kind of God, and the remnants of the loyalist elements of the foot clan, the ones who followed shredders great-great-etxx granddaughter instead of splinter and the boys when they took over

And it's all been set up for the last ten years, it whips

it is good that there is a relatively mainstream space for leftist writers. it is bad that it is run by a bloodless capitalist in sheep's clothing

you should see the rates in their cba

Rates – Work appearing in the print magazine will be paid at a minimum of $125. Work appearing on the website will be paid at a minimum of $50. Writers are free to negotiate higher rates than this, but Jacobin is not allowed to pay writers any less. 
Kill fees – When work is assigned and rejected without request for revision, writer is entitled to 50% of the agreed upon fee.
