The coronavirus pandemic has resulted in the [ deaths of hundreds of thousands ]( [link removed] ). (Not millions, as we mistakenly reported last week. Thanks to a reader for pointing out our error.) "Many of these fatalities could have been avoided" in the U.S., [ Nick French wrote for Jacobin ]( [link removed] ), "if we had a social order that placed the needs of people over profit."
"Make no mistake," French continued: "we’re facing a pandemic that could produce one of the worst mass deaths in human history, and capitalism will be responsible for many of them."
From [ private healthcare ]( [link removed] ) to [ Big Pharma ]( [link removed] ), [ sickness-ridden slaughterhouses ]( [link removed] ) to [ factory floors ]( [link removed] ), [ tax cuts for the ultra-rich ]( [link removed] ) to [ trillion-dollar corporate bailouts ]( [link removed] ), American capitalism, and the state that serves it, have put wealth before welfare at every turn. While everyday people's prospects have [ all but disappeared ]( [link removed] ), [ the wealthiest capitalists ]( [link removed] ) (especially the three Americans who [ own more than the entire bottom half of the country ]( [link removed] )) are making a killing. And they won't stop their lethal profiteering — or their [ support of lethal policing ]( [link removed] ) (read: [ unchecked oppression ]( [link removed] )) — so long as the government, the law — and we, the people — let them do it.
The virus is deadly. But it's capitalism that's killing us. In order to save humanity, we have to #KillCapitalism.
As the fallout from the coronavirus pandemic has made clear, we must [ be bold ]( [link removed] ) in fighting the capitalist death-machine.

Jammer mail #1
"I’ve just finished the two volumes of William T. Vollmann’s Carbon Ideologies (spurred by the passage I read in a recent Adbusters). Vollmann has sparked my imagination in many ways. Yes, the computer models foretell the climate apocalypse — but what they don’t predict is what will people do." — Blair Emsick

"I wonder — do you feel alone? I hate to imagine you feel as lonely as I do, watching the moon wax and wane across the dull blackness. If you're lonely, dear jammer, look up. I'll be looking too." — STARGAZING THEREABOUT PHILLY
