Dear Bernie: join forces with the Greens, otherwise there will be no political revolution!

A straight message to Bernie Sanders


In his latest article in New York Times, Bernie Sanders concluded that the political revolution should be continued. He is right. In fact, the political revolution through the huge movement that he created, just begins. And, paradoxically, the Trump presidency may accelerate it, depending on whether Trump will expose his real face in his first term. A face which reveals that he is only a reserve of the establishment, in order to maintain power.

In previous article, it has been mentioned that “The establishment starts to sense the first cracks in its solid structure. But Bernie is only the appropriate tool. It's the American people who make the difference. No matter who will be elected eventually, the final countdown for the demolition of this brutal system has already started and it's irreversible. The question now is not if, but when it will collapse, and what this collapse will bring the day after. In any case, if people are truly united, they have nothing to fear.

Yet, what Sanders fails to identify for the moment, is that the bipartisan establishment cannot be defeated from the inside.

At the beginning, Sanders correctly states that “It is no shock to me that millions of people who voted for Mr. Trump did so because they are sick and tired of the economic, political and media status quo.”, but then, he writes that “In the coming days, I will also provide a series of reforms to reinvigorate the Democratic Party. I believe strongly that the party must break loose from its corporate establishment ties and, once again, become a grass-roots party of working people, the elderly and the poor. We must open the doors of the party to welcome in the idealism and energy of young people and all Americans who are fighting for economic, social, racial and environmental justice.

As pointed previously:

... what these Leftist leaders don't seem to realize, is that the global neoliberal monster can't be defeated from the inside. If anyone attempts to do this, he will be gradually assimilated by its powerful network. We saw this already in Greece. After Tsipras surrendered to the European Financial Dictatorship, his party split losing its most radical elements, exactly as planned by the bureaufascists. Iglesias in Spain didn't manage to increase power, despite the coalition with the Left. Corbyn is already being threatened without even giving a single fight and Sanders capitulated without even attempting to create a third, purely anti-establishment pole, despite all the momentum by millions of Americans. Well, they should start wondering why they can't persuade anymore and why they are got trapped in this stagnating situation where the neoliberal monster is ready to swallow them. They should listen to millions of voices around the globe saying 'this is not the Left we want'. We need a completely autonomous Left with its own agenda, ready to fight against both the two monsters of the neoliberal establishment and the Far-Right.

So, the Democratic party cannot be transformed to serve clearly the interests of the majority of the American people because IT IS part of the economic, political and media status quo that Bernie writes about.

Decades of corruption through a 'love affair' with the bankers and the corporate lobbyists, made both the Democratic party and the Republican party fundamental components of the establishment's evil mechanism. The mechanism that produces constantly more inequality, more profits for the banking parasites, more poverty for the majority of the American people, more dirty wars with endless deaths, refugees, failed states, complete destruction.

People have been tricked so many times in the past and therefore, naturally, they have completely lost trust to the political duopoly. They have been tricked one more time with the Trump manipulator. Once they will realize that they are victims of one more fraud, the mass movement will be ready to erupt and create an unprecedented political revolution. But it needs to be done out of the bipartisan dictatorship, through the unification of all the available forces of the Left.

Jill Stein and Bernie Sanders represent exactly the same vision about a different America. There is no time and "luxury" for division between the Leftist forces. It is time for them to unite and offer a real prospect to the Sanders movement, so that to find the suitable environment to grow further over the next four years and become ready to take the power.

So, our clear message to Bernie is this: join forces with the Greens, otherwise there will be no political revolution!

  1. How many people are willing to risk their lives, when it comes to standing up against the sinister powers they have to fight against, because most people remember the Kennedy brothers and how they met their end. As long as the banking system remains in private hands, it can only get worse, never better. That power really belongs in public hands, just like all other essential services. What rules the world right now can only lead to a total slavery regardless of race, the likes of which the world has never known. It is not a nuclear exchange alone, that can make the living envy the dead. Slavery without any hope or recourse is just as bad.

Already happens: Capitalism destroys human labor force and goes to the next phase

by system failure Connecting the dots one can discover the most nightmarish scenarios. Destructive capitalism's next phase is the total substitution of the human labor force with robotic machines, or in other words, the hyper-automatization. There is a process taking place right now, and no one (or nearly no one) knows what would happen after its completion. The true picture behind unemployment From a latest article in PressTV: “ Did you know that there are nearly 102 million working age Americans that do not have a job right now? And 20 percent of all families in the United States do not have a single member that is employed. So how in the world can the government claim that the unemployment rate has “dropped” to '6.3 percent'?” “ Well, it all comes down to how you define who is 'unemployed'. For example, last month the government moved another 988,000 Americans into the 'not in the labor force' category.” http://www.presstv.ir/detail...

A response to misinformation on Nicaragua: it was a coup, not a ‘massacre’

There is so much misinformation in mainstream corporate media about recent events in Nicaragua that it is a pity that Mary Ellsberg’s article for Pulse has added to it with a seemingly leftish critique. Ellsberg claims that recent articles, including from this website, often “ paint a picture of the crisis in Nicaragua that is dangerously misleading. ” Unfortunately, her own article does just that. It looks at the situation entirely from the perspective of those opposing Daniel Ortega’s government while whitewashing their malevolent behavior and downplaying the levels of US support they have relied on. Her piece is an incomplete depiction of what is happening on the ground, ignoring many salient facts that have come to light and which have been outdated by recent events. The following is a brief response to Ellsberg’s main points from someone who lives in Nicaragua and has observed the situation directly and intimately: https://grayzoneproject.com/2018/08/15/a-res...

Mossad ‘in contact from very beginning’ with killers of Italian PM, reporter reveals

A roving reporter who covered Italy’s top politicians explains to The Grayzone how his country was reduced to a joint US-Israeli “aircraft carrier,” and raises troubling questions about an Israeli role in the killing of Prime Minister Aldo Moro.   by Kit Klarenberg and Wyatt Reed   Part 1   For years, Israel’s Mossad monitored and secretly influenced a violent communist faction that carried out the March 16, 1978 kidnapping and murder of Italian statesman Aldo Moro, veteran investigative journalist Eric Salerno has documented. Having worked closely alongside multiple Italian heads of state during his 30-year career as a correspondent, Salerno published an expose of their secret relationship with Israeli intelligence in 2010 called Mossad Base Italy. The reporter told The Grayzone that Moro, who was arguably Italy’s most important leader, became a thorn in the side of powerful forces who sought to keep his country firmly lodged in the pro-Western bloc. Salerno believes It...
