USA: the Democrats’ “Inflation Reduction Act” – a desperate attempt to save face

Biden’s presidency has been a disaster, a reflection of the crisis-ridden system he represents. His approval rating currently stands at a mere 41%—up ever so slightly from a record low of 38%. Congress, which is controlled by Biden’s party, has a 17% approval rate. Another poll says 74% of the country believe it is on the wrong track. These are not good numbers for the November 2022 midterms elections if the Democrats want to retain control—even as they cynically attempt to harness anger over Roe v. Wade to gain votes. All of this is very concerning from the point of view of the ruling class, which hoped Biden could stabilize the situation after the chaotic years of Donald Trump.

Marksizam protiv postmodernizma

Postmodernizam je amorfna filozofska škola mišljenja koja se istakla u poslijeratnom periodu (misli se na Drugi svjetski rat, prim. prev.) Počevši kao marginalni trend, prerastao je u jednu od dominantnih škola buržoaske filozofije, prožimajući veliki dio, ako ne i većinu današnje akademske zajednice. On utjelovljuje potpuni ćorsokak i pesimizam buržoaske filozofije usljed propadanja zastarjelog kapitalističkog društva.
