Today is Armistice Day, commemorating the end of World War 1, a war fought over petty political grievances between empires whose leadership was indifferent to the human cost of war. The terms dictating that ceasefire brought the end of several empires, but allowed many to flourish, including the very empire to which we are unwilling subjects.
The warmongers in Congress are poised to yet again approve a discretionary budget of $696,000,000,000.00 for the military, to be spent on continued intervention and bombing of the so-called third world, despite widespread poverty among our own residents.
We, as Students for a Democratic Society, are committed to the dismantling of the Military-Industrial Complex and the end of US Imperialism, and we know that a Biden Presidency will not willingly allow this vision to be realized.
We call on all students to pledge to reject imperialist politics and war profiteering before it ushers in the destruction of all humanity and untold ecological devastation.
