Raytheon sponsors the Girl Scouts of America. BAE Systems is reading your toddlers their favorite fairytale stories. And Lockheed Martin funds children’s math and STEM festivals. This is done with great fanfare, supposedly to empower and inspire children to pursue their passion for science. In reality, though, these companies are attempting to launder their images and enlist the next generation to become cogs in the military-industrial complex.

For a long time, the classic 18th-century song “Rule, Britannia!” by English composer Thomas Arne, with lyrics by Scottish poets James Thomson and David Mollett, effectively served as the United Kingdom’s second national anthem. Its refrain, “Rule, Britannia! Britannia rule the waves,” powerfully captured the essence of the concept of “Mistress of the Seas,” a title Great Britain proudly bore for several centuries. For a long time, the guiding principle of the United Kingdom was to maintain a navy equal in strength to the two strongest navies of other powers combined. However, as the ancient saying goes, times change, and we change with them.

Since 1945, American foreign policy has obeyed a systemic invariant: maintaining the world in a state of structural vassalage. This Pax Americana, which is nothing more than a myth shrouded in economic violence and military coercion, is crumbling.

| A major investigation just exposed how Palantir’s NHS data platform, which cost £330 million, is a GIANT waste of money – with swathes of NHS staff barely using it because it’s so rubbish. [1] What’s more, the evidence used to ‘prove’ its benefit is apparently totally flawed and full of errors. 🤦 [2] |

Bill V. Mullen tears W.E.B. Du Bois away from the respectable American mythology that embalmed a communist revolutionary as a harmless prophet of racial reconciliation. His recovery reveals the color line as a world system binding slavery, colonial plunder, imperial war and capitalist exploitation—and restores the diasporic international that organized resistance across those fronts. Yet the book retreats when revolution passes from rebellion into socialist state power, treating the Soviet and Chinese experiences through an anti-Stalinist framework that too often separates emancipation from the institutions required to defend and construct it. What remains is an indispensable revolutionary recovery whose strongest evidence points beyond its weakest conclusions, toward an internationalism capable of defending socialist construction without surrendering criticism or popular power.
