The forever wars of Gaza and Ukraine, the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis, the cost of living/ growing inequality crisis, climate change, the impeding encroachment of the far right and the migration crisis; they're all symptoms of Big Business becoming ever more powerful because of the exponential accumulation of wealth over time in the 1%. The more time goes by the richer they get, the more power becomes concentrated within them. It really is simple maths. It's the same fight but at different fronts, whether at home or abroad.
The left needs to unite and operate internationally, otherwise we're forever stuck with 1 step to the left 4 steps to the right (Hello Starmer!). Looking down condescendingly on other lefty factions won't help you win once at the negotiation tables. The left also need to stop falling for the right's bs gaslighting tactics. We'll be forever confused, walking in circles fighting one another if they have their way.
