Meh, she's just a moralist hippie. Nothing to see here
"We should not say that one man's hour is worth another man's hour, but rather that one man during an hour is worth just as much as another man during an hour. Time is everything, man is nothing: he is at the most time's carcass." Karl Marx
Wooo! Hot chicks burning their shirts! USA USA USA
The criticism of religion ends with the teaching that man is the highest essence for man – hence, with the categoric imperative to overthrow all relations in which man is a debased, enslaved, abandoned, despicable essence, relations which cannot be better described than by the cry of a Frenchman when it was planned to introduce a tax on dogs: Poor dogs! They want to treat you as human beings!

tbh I'm skeptical of any person who worshipped a political figure that much. She says she's changed, but what happened, did her fanaticism just wane when she found out obama wasn't all he was made out to be? I bet if some other president came along offering the same crap she would fall for it again
I think that's a bit dismissive of the ability for people to change based on the events happening around them, both in a broader scope and to individuals personally. Material conditions dictate conciousness and all that. I once remember thinking that voting for the Liberal Democrats would get rid of student fees but then feeling betrayed by their abandonment of the student movement. This is what sparked my reading of Marxist texts and, upon facing a reality of future underemployment in a shitty retail job, solidified my current understanding of the need for revolutionary socialism.
There's a lot of disaffected people out there, particularly young people faced with huge student debts and no future prospects, that could be won over to our ideas. I don't think this woman is quite there yet but she's far more likely to actually sit down and legitimately think about the ideas of socialism now with her broader understanding of the betrayals of the capitalist political parties than she was a few years ago when she supported Obama initially.
(Maybe? Dunno, I might be applying my personal experiences from several years ago to a situation that isn't quite relevant.)
Modern democracy is nothing but the freedom to preach whatever is to the advantage of the bourgeoisie - Lenin
Liberals always fold under pressure and idealists never last, pretty much two things you can always count on.
p.s. And she's hella annoying. Who still talks like that?

Take the word “fear” and the phrase “for what, it’s not going to change anything” out of your minds and take control of your future.

"I want to give a really bad party. I mean it. I want to give a party where there's a brawl and seductions and people going home with their feelings hurt and women passed out in the cabinet de toilette. You wait and see"
Yeah, that's a good point. At least she has encountered our ideas. I'm probably nitpicking a bit.
I just get the impression that it's pretty unnatural to get THAT enthusiastic over any political figure in the states. Like, she must have been fed some pretty profound misinformation.
It is too bad she probably is a right-wing libertarian now. However, she is pro-choice.
who cares...why is a video of someone burning an Obama shirt worth posting
Lol. Why bother responding to the thread then, if it's so worthless? Kinda hypocritical.
Seems just like some self righteous pseudo-anarchist... She is cute though.
Yeah, we're going to not objectify women in our discussions here. If you have comments to make about someone that's fine but refrain from the objectifying 'boy's club' attitudes about who's "hot" or not.

"For example, to say that the relation between industrial capital and the class of the wage workers is expressed in precisely the same way in Belgium and Thailand, and that the praxis of their respective struggles should be established without taking into account in either of the two cases the factors of race or nationality, does not mean you are an extremist, but it means in effect that you have understood nothing of Marxism."

You're hot, Remy.
Segui il tuo corso e lascia dir le genti.
Socialism resides entirely in the revolutionary negation of the capitalist ENTERPRISE, not in granting the enterprise to the factory workers.

why are we mad at this girl?
And why are we even discussing this? Why was this posted? Why is it relevant? Why?
for a couple of seconds there it was so hot it was on fire but then it became old school pretty fast. Such is the life of a fashion statement. sigh
