Thread for hellish discussion of the Dying Burger Reich: Things are going to continue to happen in the stupidest ways possible that no one really takes seriously, where every single person compulsively reacts with either cynical grifting or useless panic and appealing to a political system of liberal democracy that is entirely dead and irrelevant. things will continue to get gradually worse, more people will lose their jobs and homes, the most destitute and marginalized will be oppressed by state-backed domestic terrorism, but the decay will simply continue and everyone who isn't actively being imprisoned and forced into slavery or outright exterminated will simply ignore it and maintain a cognitive dissonance of believing a civil war is happening while living their lives in a mostly normal fashion. The death of the United States will be slow, painful, and insufferably annoying and stupid. 🏈 💵

Automotive DIY General
So I know pretty much nothing about working on cars because I'm a fag, the most I've ever done is change a tire. But the brake light came on the dashboard in my Toyota Highlander a few days ago and I took it to a brake shop who did a free inspection but quoted me $1500 for a brake job, so I decided to finally learn how to do this shit myself. The mechanic told me the rotors needs replacing but I looked at them and they seem perfectly fine to me and I haven't felt any wobbling or anything when braking, so I think it just needs new pads and brake fluid. I watched a couple of Youtube videos on how to change brake pads and brake fluid and I ordered a set of brake pads for my car from RockAuto for about $50 and a brake bleed kit from Amazon for $20 and I bought a quart of DOT3 brake fluid from a local Dollar General for $10. I have sets of metric wrenches and sockets from working on bicycles years ago and my neighbor has a floorjack and jackstands I can borrow so I think I have everything I need. I know to not let air bubbles into the brake line and to not put any stress on the brake line when taking off the caliper, is there anything else I should know? I don't want to screw this up and end up killing myself driving my car later.

Leftypol could really learn something from Athenian democracy and the story of Aristides.
The fact Athenian democracy worked so well is what saved them numerous times especially from the advances of the Persian forces.

Can someone give me non-bullshit explanation of how exactly Western PROLETARIAT benefits from imperialism?
The West exported their investments and know-how and helped in the industrialization of the third world. Not just China, but also SEA, Asian tigers, India, Brazil, Poland, Malaysia etc. This resulted in the exact opposite of what happened in colonialism. The Western industries were hollowed out this time, and outsourced to the third world. Now sure, the Western bourgie benefited from this, but the money didnt trickle down much. That's why in the 1970s you could support a family and live a decent life doing a simple blue collar job and now you cant. So where exactly did the Western PROLETARIAT benefit from this imperialism?

Why isn't China funneling money to combat anti-communist propaganda in the west/
Why isn't China funneling money to combat anti-communist propaganda in the west? Or anti-chinese propaganda? Or anything like that? All they do is whine about the confucious institute but its clearly not doing jackshit since sinophobia and anti-communism continue to be rampant. Where are the think tanks? Why aren't they financing channels to screw over the algorhytmn? Why? If they're doing something or anything at all its not enough. Anywhere east of Russia is generally an anti-communist shithole that holds no respect for China and millions of citizens brainwashed into pro-American slopaganda about how China's "stealing technology from the US", "China is totalitarian surveillence undemocratic state when west is freedumz n freeze peach", "Russia aggressor 2022 Putin dictator" "Hummus antisemitism". Why is China letting this retardation continue? Its only fueling the retardation war machine and conditioning the retarded to die for retardation. Why come China is just letting anti-chinese and anti-communist propaganda flood the internet? China is literally winning on all grounds except propaganda, why hasn't it solidified its global importance by financing anti-western sentinment? Why do we have to be forced to listen and see all this retarded bullshit and argue with it to no avail when China has the power to finance cointel to win the information war?

- The government's going to do a switcheroo by raising income tax slightly and cutting national insurance to balance it out. (But they won't - follow this to its logical conclusion and scrap NI entirely)
- They're also considering cutting VAT on energy bills (which is the least efficient way of lowering bills you can imagine)
- The board of deputies asked Aston Villa for free footy tickets. In a worrying sign of rising antisemitism, Aston said nah.
- Labour is falling behind the Greens in the opinion polls as their strategy of copying Reform drives away their already-begrudging supporters without winning over any Reform voting reprobates. Nobody could have predicted this.

The surveillance and general crackdown on muslims during the GWOT was fucking crazy. Look at some of these FBI guidelines for profiling "extremists" and justifying repression:
>Spreading religious fanaticism through irregular beards or name selection
Can't grow a suspicious beard or name your kid mohamed
>Wearing (or compelling others to wear) burqas with face coverings
Can't wear religious clothing
>Interfering with cultural and recreational activities, rejecting or refusing public goods and services such as radio and television.
Gotta listen to NPR I guess
>Publishing, printing, distributing, selling, producing, downloading, storing, reproducing, accessing, copying, or possessing articles, publications, audio or video with extremist content
Ridiculously vague
>Other speech and acts of extremism
Basically a justification to spy and harass anyone for any reason

This specialization gradually introduces inequality: leaders accumulate authority, private property appears, and social ranks emerge. The game models this shift through systems like organization hierarchies, diplomacy, and class-based housing. Over time, patriarchal families, inheritance, and noble titles develop, solidifying class divisions. In this way, Primitive Society Simulator portrays the long historical transformation from communal, cooperative tribes into societies defined by hierarchy, property, and power.

Primitive Society Simulator
Primitive Society Simulator is a historical society-building game that lets players guide a prehistoric tribe from a simple communal existence to a stratified civilization. It begins in an egalitarian “primitive communist” stage, where resources, labor, and tools are shared, and there is little distinction between individuals. As the tribe develops agriculture, metalworking, and trade, it begins to produce surpluses, allowing some members to specialize as craftsmen, warriors, or leaders.This specialization gradually introduces inequality: leaders accumulate authority, private property appears, and social ranks emerge.

a specimen of a very rare breed.
I won't describe a specimen of this breed to you,
O perspicacious reader
You'll never get to see even one example of this breed.
You aren't constituted so that you can perceive such types.
They're invisible to you.
Only honest and bold eyes can see them.
This poem serves merely so
that you'll know,
even if only by hearsay,
what kind of people
exist on this earth.
There are only a few of them,
but through them
everyone's life will flourish.
Without them
life would wither.
There are only a few of them,
but they make it possible for all people to breathe;
without them people would suffocate.
There's a great mass
of honest and good people,
but there are very few people like them.
But these few people are within that mass,
as theine is in tea,
as bouquet is in fine wine.
They are its strength and its aroma.
They are the flower of the best people,
the movers of the movers,
the salt of the salt of the earth.
I've met a Communist today
Yes, he was an extraordinary man,a specimen of a very rare breed.
I won't describe a specimen of this breed to you,

You aren't constituted so that you can perceive such types.

How can I actually agitate for the decriminalization of lolicon where I live? Like what practical ways are there to even get involved in activism for it?
It's so stupid because I can literally buy a copy of Nabokov's Lolita, or a print of a Balthus painting (I guess because they're considered "classics" and more respected or something,) but if I'd imported Lyrical Nanoha doujins from Japan, I could get several years in prison for the crime of… What??? Buying foreign porn comics???? So far I've been just betting that the law has more important things to do than running around trying to put weebs in jail, but bourgeois policy being what it is, I'd rather oppose the laws altogether.

I've been thinking about it a lot recently and I don't really see a future in the USA, anymore constant capitulation and watering down of socialism in favor of social-democrats like Zohran and AOC.

some people don't like it when characters break the 4th wall and talk directly to the audience, because it destroys immersion, but what if they literally crawled out of your monitor and beat you half to death? That would be pretty immersive in my opinion.

How did "dudebro" culture end up being sort of retconned as right wing? I was in a purple state college during Bush's second term and everyone loathed conservatives. We didn't even have the obligatory Ron Paul guy in 07-08.
It's so funny how ubiquitous the "you shouldn't have touched our bideo games!!" talking point has become. The culture around them, the coverage, G4, the magazines, all chock full of jokes at the expense of the right. Maybe this issue isn't deeply political, but it is deeply infuriating to see history rewritten.

The capitalist class operates with little regard for borders, a fluidity it leverages to its advantage. The entire United States functions as a network of neocolonies—these states host governments that do not represent their people, but rather the corporations that operate within them. The majority of the population is exploited within this system; in fact, only a privileged 10% truly benefit from the capitalist-imperialist economy.
Beneath this broadly exploited class lies a layer of the hyper-exploited, who form the core source of slave labor for this anti-life regime. This super-exploitation is manufactured along racial, gender, and other lines, a deliberate construct of capitalism's superstructure. The rise of a hyper-militarized "War from Within," waged by agencies like ICE, makes this brutally clear. Hispanic people—and by extension, Indigenous people, as the term "Hispanic" is itself a colonizer label invented in the 1970s to impose a European (Spanish) heritage—are primary targets. Even the spectacle of Proud Boys leaders who identify as Hispanic cannot obscure this systemic reality; it only reiterates the haunting contradictions we must confront.
This pattern is rooted in an unfinished past. The first American Revolution of 1776 was ultimately a war over which faction of the capitalist class would control the colonies. While it included a small but notable faction of true people's revolutionaries—figures like Thomas Paine, who argued for abolishing slavery from the outset—they failed. Their defeat meant the people's revolution was never completed.
Therefore, we are not simply communists or anarchists, though we may be influenced by both. We are abolitionists. Our purpose is to finish that people's revolution and free this land from capital's control.
This struggle did not begin with us, nor did it pause after 1776. It is a continuous thread woven through this land's history: in the pan-tribal resistance led by Tecumseh, in the stunning victory of Indigenous nations at the Battle of Little Bighorn, in the bloody righteousness of Nat Turner’s rebellion, and in John Brown’s holy war against chattel slavery. The Civil War itself contained revolutionary, abolitionist currents that were ultimately subverted by capital, which traded chattel slavery for the prison of sharecropping and Jim Crow.
This tradition of people's war was carried into the industrial era by the IWW, which waged a protracted struggle from the 1880s to the 1930s. They were ultimately squashed not just by state violence, but by the betrayal of turncoat communists within the CPUSA and other factions that chose alignment with social democrats over revolutionary solidarity.
Even the global fight against fascism in WWII was subverted. While millions fought with an anti-fascist spirit, American corporations had fueled Hitler's rise, and after the war, the state imported Nazi scientists via Operation Paperclip, integrating their expertise into the U.S. military-industrial complex. Remember the Business Plot of 1933, where financiers attempted a fascist coup against FDR; though it failed, its architects remained in positions of immense power.
The central problem has always been the strategic separation of perspectives through intentional racial division, a tactic solidified after Bacon's Rebellion. That rebellion was a prototype, unifying black and white workers to such a degree that the ruling class was forced to invent the concept of "whiteness" and codify chattel slavery to shatter that solidarity.
We can view this entire history through a hauntological lens: If Bacon's Rebellion achieved that much, we must imagine the lost future where that alliance also united with the native tribes, successfully ousting the private landed gentry. That ghost of a future, which was stolen from us, holds the key to the future we can still inherit.
It has been 533 years since Columbus landed on Turtle Island in search of trade, gold, and markets; 406 years since the first person of African descent was brought to these shores in bondage; 350 years since Bacon's Rebellion; and 250 years since the capitalist class subverted the revolutionary currents of 1776—the pattern of division becomes starkly visible across the centuries.
The central, enduring problem of American history has been the strategic separation of perspectives through intentional racial division, a tactic systematically codified in the wake of Bacon's Rebellion. That uprising was a fiery prototype of class solidarity, unifying enslaved Africans, European indentured servants, and landless freemen to such a dangerous degree that the terrified ruling class was forced to engineer a social solution: they invented the legal and social concept of "whiteness" and hardened the system of hereditary chattel slavery specifically to shatter that multiracial solidarity. This was the "counter-revolution of 1676," a preemptive strike against a people's revolution that has shaped all that followed.
We must therefore view this entire history through a hauntological lens. We are haunted by the futures that were stolen from us. If the pursuit of trade and gold 533 years ago initiated this cycle of extraction and division, and if the solidarity glimpsed 350 years ago in Bacon's Rebellion was so potent it required a new system of apartheid to contain it, then we must actively imagine the lost future where that rebel alliance also united with the native tribes whose land was the rebellion's initial object. Imagine a future where that coalition—of the enslaved, the indentured, the landless, and the indigenous—successfully ousted the private landed gentry and built a society on a foundation of mutual interest, not racial capitalism.
That ghost of a future, a possibility born 350 years ago and suppressed ever since, is a key. It unlocks the understanding that our present is built on a foundation of deliberately fractured solidarity. We are recovering a roadmap to the future we were denied, a future that, in recognizing its own stolen potential, we can still choose to inherit.

I was arguing with a third worldist/read settlers type the other day who was telling me they don’t feel bad for homeless westerners and that they deserve it. Now I absolutely hate American Imperialism as much as any socialist should but this seems like an absurd leap in logic to wish ill on the common people of the west who while they do benefit in some degree from imperialism, don’t hold the power structure and are also the ones who are made to fight in their bullshit wars. Is socialism when you wish homelessness on white people?

why the fuck do westoids have awful reasons to hate japan? i hate japan too because of its imperialist nature and capitalist economic system. but i never understood the people who claim they hate japan, and it’s because of pedophilia and rape, and the pedo or rape in question are just drawings instead of pulling up actual statistics of pedophilia or rape being normalized in that nation. all i know is that misogyny and racism are a problem in japan so there’s probably a hint already that pedophilia and rape are also normalized in japan as well. this isn’t trying to defend japan or whatever but im rather concerned about how they’re not being critical when criticizing a nation like japan

Free Birds is the greatest movie of all time!
Most people think that this is another consumerist kids movie made to prophet off of an imperialist holiday but those people are stupid. You see the movie starts with a turkey named Reggie trying to warn a bunch of clueless farm turkeys that the farmer is just fattening them up to eat them which they don’t believe, you might think that this is just a retarded kids movie but you see Reggie is actually a metaphor for the Marxist movement in America and how small it is, and the clueless turkeys symbolize the lumpenproletariat and them being fattened up by the farmer is a critique of consumerism. And when Reggie becomes the pardoned turkey and starts gooning to soap operas at camp David that is made to criticize Champagne socialism, then when he gets kidnapped by the red turkey Jake that symbolizes the Maoist movement and direct action. When my mom took me to see this movie when I was 10 I cried 11 times watching this and it immediately radicalized me.

Gen z and fascism on social media
It's old news that fascism is on the rise but I can't be the only one that is suspecting there's a deliberate push by social media companies at this point? Twitter might be obvious but I'm also seeing more and more things on places like youtube getting tons of views that wouldn't have been allowed to stay up a couple years ago, picrel for example. Instagram reels being full of nazi content and its comment sections being bombarded with racism is something that's become infamous but that seemed to have happened almost overnight.

Are Groypers real?
What I mean by this is do most Groypers even believe the shit they spew? What I mean by this is that most of these guys are young college students (Many of which are secretly brown) who want to be edgy and counter-culture and contrarian and think that being a Nazi fits that description. The truth is that being a Nazi isn’t counter culture and Nazis are all over the halls of congress and the White House, like of of these kids could say to they’re mother “Hey mom trans women are men and Mexicans should be deported!” And his mom would say “Avery how dare you say such a thing! Who raised you?” And then he would laugh thinking he’s being edgy when little to his knowledge if he were to say that to his grandfather his grandfather would agree. Truly the left is the only counter culture in America which is why you are celebrated for being edgy if you make fun of George Floyd but are called a terrorist for making fun of Charlie Kirk. Now I’m not saying that the Groyper threat isn’t real nor am I not saying that it hasn’t been consequential for an entire generation but I still think that a good chunk of the might grow the fuck up.

I present to you, the Rule Me China Movement! RMCM! Or alternatively called RMPRCM! We are the first worldwide openly sinophile movement that wants China to invade and destroy our nation states we live in and instead we want to be governed by China, we want all of our culture to be wiped out or sinicized as much as possible, we want to people to study and worship China, the CPC and socialism with chinese characteristcs (SWCC), we want SWCC, we want our nations to cede their territory to China and hope that one day the entire World globe will be governed by China and the CPC. We are proud national traitors, we want not only to live in China we want to destroy our nations to become a part of China, we are both activists and violent agitators, revolutionaries. Our goal is to convince every person that China is the best nation in the world, that our own nations suck and should be destroyed and that the way of the scientific outlook on development and the future stands with China and SWCC. Our goal is to create propaganda in every nation outside of China and create a massive support base and expand a coordinated movement for free dedicating our life to praising the PRC and engaging in everything PRC related.This is the declaration of the RMCM, for universal socialism with chinese characteristics and universal governance by China. We can agitate by organizing, getting together and doing propaganda, education, civil disobedience or outright sabotage and military preparation for overthrow of our own national governments.

everal European countries are currently reevaluating their military conscription policies, with some, like Croatia, having recently decided to reinstate it. Regarding pension reforms, the debate is also active, with France serving as a prominent example where a recent reform is facing political opposition and proposed suspension.
>Croatia.
Parliament voted in October 2025 to bring back a 2-month compulsory service starting in 2026.
>Germany
The government is moving toward a "new military service" model starting with a mandatory digital questionnaire for young men from 2027, with the potential for mandatory conscription if needed.
>Denmark
Expanding to include women from July 2025. Service is selected via a lottery system from the pool of eligible 18-year-olds.
>Latvia
Reintroduced in 2023. All men between 18 and 27 must serve for 11 months.
Concurrently, pension reform is trying to be pushed in Belgium, France, Bosnia and Slovenia (that I know of). All want to raise the retirement age and lower pensions low term.
Serbia has a rebellion going on for almost a year.

Am I the only one seeing a re-birth of “anarcho”-capitalist ideology on the internet?
These fuckers were EVERYWHERE back in the late 2000s and early 2010s. In fact, their presence coincided with the Obama presidency, whereby the entire GOP was calling Obama a closeted communist and pushing a ton of anti-Marxist propaganda. A lot of it had to do with the Ron Paul cult that started in 2007-2008. “An”-caps tried weaselling their way into every anti-war protest, every authentically anarchist space, Occupy Wall Street (they tried infiltrating the movement to make it about ending the Federal Reserve but failed), and plenty of other anti-establishment spaces.
However, by the mid 2010s most of them jumped on the Trump train and shifted their views entirely. No longer were they free market fundamentalists but big government right-wing populists. My friend in New Hampshire said that nearly all the Free Staters are now anti-drug, anti-queer, anti-abortion, and pro-police, when they all held the polar opposite views 13-15 years ago. Plus, many free market guys are now MAGAts who’ve converted to traditionalist Catholicism and are pushing a hyper-nationalist crypto-NazBol agenda. The only thing I can conclude is that their views were always informed by white supremacy.
However, for the past week or so I’ve noticed a sizeable resurgence of “an”-caps online. Has anyone else noticed the same? You think they will come back as a means of countering Mamdani and the new rise of DSA into political power?

Books on the fabrication of the ukrainian identity
Most MSM, AI LLM trained on shit, resources online point to the fake narrative that ukraine (the borderlands, formerly wild lands or dikoe pole) has some kind of lineage tied to Kievan Rus and that it was not entirely a fabrication by the USSR. It is a fake nation that speaks a russian dialect and fabricated its own history and identity. Give me books to prove this right because it is the truth, give me books and resources, english russian whatever,

We must destroy our own sexuality to achieve a Communist future.
To achieve an international Socialist rule, we must ensure a full dedication to the party and it's objectives. Personal relationships that leech funds, attention, and dedication to the party must be destroyed by the individual internally to achieve an unwavering dedication to the proletariat. We've seen countless times in organizations that sexuality have led to the destruction of the individuals in power, Haz, Hasan, Maupin, MikefromPA, their downfall and degeneration? Falling from Marxist ideals in favor of dedication to sexual conquest. Our relationships to others should solely be dedicated to advancing the interests of the international proletariat, a dictatorship of the proletariat, and the return and advancement of the Comintern.

The only hope for communists in this election was Comrade Curtis Sliwa. But he was never going to survive the assault of the imperial-liberal youth of NYC. The American proletariat barely exists. Its brave last soldiers are heroically resisting, but they have already lost and soon will be exterminated.
Zohranism or the Vanguard of the Petite-Bourgeoisie
Zohran Mamdani and his acolytes are the vanguard of the mom&pop petite-bourgeoisie. Ethnically Indian, Ugandan born, NYC raised: the archetype of the small-business rootless cosmopolitan. He does not oppose big corporations with a view of nationalising them under a worker-led state. He opposes big corporations because they drive his beloved small food truck and small peddlers out of business. Zohran hates Wall Street not because he wants a Proletarian New York, but because he wants an Oriental Bazaar New York. He loves the mass of decentralised spice traders, snake oil merchants, and empanada fryers. Zohran loves American Imperialism, he just wants the petite-bourgeoisie to have a larger share of the imperial spoils, instead of getting wiped out by the haute-bourgeoisie. Bernie killed Rosa, AOC dismembered her corpse, Zohran will distribute the body parts to his small merchant friends.The only hope for communists in this election was Comrade Curtis Sliwa.

Why is leftypol not throwing massive support behind Mamdani?
No one believes he’s an actual socialist, however his victory will be the most important victory of the American left of the past 90 years. Why? Because it shows the Zionist Lobby has NO POWER compared to the power of the MASSES OF PEOPLE and we can defeat the satanic Zionist entity not with a violent revolution but simply with voting. Nobody believes Mamdani is a perfect candidate but that’s not the point.
So why aren’t we backing him en masse? His inevitable win will be the biggest blow to US-Zio imperialism in modern history.

Following economist Jacques Sapir, Camfield characterizes AES regimes as “mobilization economies,” in which the state mobilized “all available resources, on a non-commercial basis.” The regimes prioritized the geopolitical interests of their respective party-state bureaucracies by imposing distinct forms of “state capitalism.”
While Camfield’s “reconstructed historical materialist” analysis and lessons he draws for the Left are mostly spot-on, his use of state capitalism as a framework to understand AES is less convincing. In this review, I will briefly summarize Camfield’s central arguments about AES before discussing their broader theoretical and political implications.
Why wasn’t AES socialism?
Camfield locates the renewed interest in AES regimes in anti-anticommunism. Since Western anticommunists (of liberal and conservative variants) have equated communism with fascism, the decline of the neoliberal consensus that followed the Soviet Union’s collapse paved the way for the revival of anti-anticommunism.
Camfield argues this tendency grew among certain Maoist currents in the 1960s’ New Left and has become more prominent as the disillusionment with neoliberal capitalism has led many to a search for alternatives in recent years. Anti-anticommunists’ nostalgic embrace of rival regimes to Western capitalism (including AES regimes, but often other developmentalist regimes too) raises real problems for the socialist left today as apologism for class oppression under AES regimes becomes more widespread.
Contrary to the claims of their proponents, the bureaucratic one-party regimes governing AES societies never aimed for democratic workers’ control or the abolition of exploitation and oppression. Camfield shows how workers experienced forms of political and economic domination under state managers who pursued economic goals that mimicked capitalist growth.
However, in the aftermath of rapid industrialization campaigns and wartime mobilizations, the AES command/mobilization economies experienced technical stagnation that made it difficult to develop the productivity of labor. This dynamic made it increasingly difficult for them to both maintain the social provisions they created during revolutionary upsurges (education, housing, health care) and compete militarily with capitalist empires. The survival of the redistributionist policies, as well as their episodic anti-imperialist campaigns, was contingent on their contribution to the survival of ruling party-state bureaucracies that overwhelmingly adopted capitalist methods of production in the face of stagnation.
Out of the three regimes discussed in Red Flags, only the revolutionary Russian state briefly embraced the goal of initiating a genuine communist transformation. After the fall of tsarism in February 1917, soviets (democratic workplace councils) seized power from a weak provisional government by October of that year. But the viability of the Bolshevik-led soviet regime depended on support from Russia’s small-peasant majority and, more crucially, an anticipated communist revolution in the more economically advanced Germany. When the German workers’ revolution failed, and the Russian Civil War depleted the ranks of Bolsheviks, Soviet democracy collapsed. By the end of the war, the soviets had become a bureaucratic extension of the party-state led by the Communist Party.
To stabilize a war-torn economy, the Bolsheviks introduced pro-market reforms under the New Economic Policy. After Vladimir Lenin’s death, Joseph Stalin’s “socialism in one country” faction seized control through a power struggle within the party, and repressed dissident factions by intensifying the political persecution that had commenced during the Civil War.
The 1928 “Great Break” launched waves of forced collectivization of land, rapid industrialization, and mass relocations, resulting in millions of deaths. “The first example in history of a government seeking to transform an entire economy and society through planned action by the state,” was driven by a perceived threat of war and a grain procurement crisis. While labor remained decommodified and workers held some leverage due to the absence of urban unemployment, workers remained alienated from their labor and the state, as they were compelled to pursue state economic targets and were banned from advocating for their interests through independent organizations. After World War II, as economic growth stalled, and decades of reforms failed to resolve this stagnation, the party-state gradually embraced a broader capitalist restructuring.
Stalin’s crash program of industrialization featured projects like the construction of the Dnieper hydroelectric station in 1931. Image author unknown.
Camfield shows that China and Cuba had even weaker ties to the goal of workers’ self-emancipation. The Communist Party of China, founded in 1921, initially aligned with the nationalist Guomindang regime under the Stalinist Comintern’s directives, but the party reoriented to a rural guerrilla strategy after the massacre of Communists in 1927. During its temporary reunion with the Guomindang against the genocidal Japanese invasion in the 1930s and 1940s, the party’s ranks swelled, allowing it to successfully defeat the weakened Guomindang after the war, despite Comintern efforts to force the two into coalition.
Although the Communist Party had broad support among the peasant majority after the People’s Republic of China was established in 1949, its path to power through conventional warfare meant democratic workers’ control was never on the table. While private enterprise was initially tolerated, the party adopted a mobilization economy in the early 1950s. Five-year plans and the Great Leap Forward led to famine and tens of millions of deaths as collectivization of land and industrialization were ramped up.
Mounting internal fractures drove Mao Zedong to launch the Cultural Revolution to reassert control in the 1960s, resulting in more violence and mass death. After Mao’s death in 1976, Deng Xiaoping began to phase out market restrictions while retaining an authoritarian one-party regime. Institutions like the hukou system, which restricts worker mobility between districts, kept labor cheap and disciplined, enabling a gradual privatization of land and state-owned enterprises alongside economic integration into Western markets. By the 1990s, China had become a global industrial hub, fostering a new capitalist elite while maintaining the Communist Party’s monopoly on state power.
[The] party-state regimes [of China and Cuba] emerged from revolutionary and anti-imperialist upheavals but rapidly subordinated popular forms of democratic control to geopolitical imperatives.
Cuba’s trajectory mirrored some of the same patterns as China, but without a path toward full economic independence. After centuries of Spanish colonialism and decades of U.S.-backed dictatorship under Fulgencio Batista, the July 26th Movement led by Fidel Castro overthrew Batista in 1959. While revolution enjoyed mass support in Cuba, the movement’s strategy was rooted in a struggle for anti-imperialist national liberation, not democratic workers’ control.
Under pressure from U.S. aggression, the regime aligned with the Soviet Union and became a party-state with a mobilization economy by 1965. While education and healthcare were modernized, industrialization never fully took off. This meant a political-economic dependency, enabling the suppression of independent unions, grassroots organizations, and dissent against the party-state. After the Soviet Union collapsed, Cuba turned to market reforms to survive, but only managed to foster a small private sector while seeing many social protections eroded under budget pressures.
As Camfield clearly shows, these party-state regimes emerged from revolutionary and anti-imperialist upheavals but rapidly subordinated popular forms of democratic control to geopolitical imperatives. While workers’ democracy in Russia collapsed under civil war and geopolitical isolation, leading to a bureaucratic apparatus that ultimately imploded, in China and Cuba revolutions rooted in peasant mobilization and nationalist resistance led to party-states that consolidated power without providing mechanisms for democratic workers’ control. A shared disavowal of proletarian agency in favor of bureaucratic command, justified by geopolitical and economic pressures, unified these regimes’ paths to eventual embrace of capitalistic economic goals, whatever socialist coloring they used to justify their policies.
State capitalism?
Camfield identifies the mode of production as “state capitalism,” while suggesting that, more important than this terminology is the fact that actually existing socialism “involves class exploitation, is not in transition to communism, and is neither qualitatively superior to nor worse than capitalism.”
At its core, though, labeling these systems as capitalist rests on an overly formalistic interpretation, defining capitalism merely by the presence of wage labor, accumulation, and industrialization. This approach, however, sidelines Karl Marx’s understanding of capitalism’s historical specificity: the pervasive dominance of abstract labor and the subordination of use-value production to value production. These dynamics only become possible under the “dull compulsion” of markets, where workers must sell their labor-power to survive, and enterprises must sell commodities profitably to avoid collapse.
Camfield’s assertion that AES regimes were capitalist, though distortedly so, fails to account for their fundamental lack of market-dependent classes, the absence of generalized commodity production and capitalist crises. While it is true that the growth in the production of goods and services slowed throughout the 1960s-70s in the USSR, roughly parallel to trends in the world economy, this does not mean that economic crises of AES are capitalist. Although labor-power might have been formally commodified and managed to improve productivity relative to Western standards, it was not disciplined by the threat of unemployment or market competition. Camfield acknowledges this (52) but does not clarify how then economic crises under AES could be capitalist.
This is important because it was these systems’ inherent inability to sustain productivity growth in the absence of market imperatives that triggered collapse or capitalist transition, not capitalist crises of profitability. Surplus labor was extracted through the direct administrative command and juridical control exercised by the party-state, not the dull compulsion of the market. While Camfield states that the size of the Soviet “military industrial complex” and “the structure of the bureaucratically directed mobilization economy” drove USSR’s stagnation and its inability to take advantage of the productivity boost provided to the West by neoliberalism, he does not clarify why the absence of capitalist crises, or the presence of state forms of domination over market ones are not indicators of a distinct mode of production.
In lieu of “state capitalism,” the notion of state collectivism offers a more coherent and analytically precise alternative. It recognizes the bureaucratic party-state’s monopolistic control over surplus appropriation without erroneously importing capitalist dynamics where they did not genuinely exist. The party-state’s command over the economy, while effective during early stages of industrialization, proved incapable of sustaining developmental momentum without restructuring to introduce and prioritize the growth of capitalist markets instead of the state bureaucracy.
The question of communist transition
The key question for the Left, however, is not just a theoretical one on the transition from one mode of production to another. It is about forms of democratic organization that can withstand and overcome capitalist sieges in moments of upsurge. As Camfield argues, communism is the project of subordinating economic and political power and all aspects of everyday life to democratic control. Yet, the antidemocratic culture of the Communist Parties of actually existing socialism went beyond their embrace of labor exploitation.
State repression in these regimes helped crystallize forms of racial and gender-based oppression while legitimizing imperialist domination abroad. Camfield shows how the women’s movements’ initial gains in revolutionary moments were undermined by the reimposition of patriarchal laws later. LGBT+ people experienced similar forms of repression in all three Communist regimes discussed in Red Flags.
In the Soviet Union and China, minority populations were systematically subjected to forced dispossession and labor, coerced assimilation, and militarized surveillance. In Cuba, racism against Afro-Cubans also persisted, though in less repressive forms. The international solidarity of these regimes displayed has also been a matter of realpolitik, often sacrificing Communist and anti-imperialist movements in alliances with so-called progressive capitalist blocs against fascism.
AES regimes were coercive, however, not only because of their structures, but because of the pressures imposed on them by a hostile world system. Embargoes, sabotage, war, and isolation these regimes faced favored militarization, centralization of power, and the suppression of dissent in the name of survival. To centralize power and defend their revolutions, these regimes often massacred mass democratic movements that made their societies revolutionary in the first place. Camfield insists that the communist horizon today must be grounded in a conception of abundance, not based on state quotas attained through repression and exploitation, but one based on the guarantee that no one’s existence depends on hierarchy or deprivation.
In this light, the key task of communist transition is building democratic working-class organizations that can withstand domestic and imperialist pressures. As Camfield reminds us history is not predetermined, and the question of how democratic working class movements can seize political ruptures rather than letting them harden into authoritarian structures remains alive. A successful communist transition requires democratic working-class organizations to not just crush state or market-based forms of domination, but to also simultaneously transform state machinery to withstand a capitalist siege that will encourage militarization and authoritarian tendencies.
Camfield argues that the Left must [foster] revolutionary politics democratically accountable to movements from below, not insulated astroturf vanguards.
The Left’s main advantage today, relative to communists of the last century, is that capitalism has already created unprecedented global interdependence of labor and technology, and therefore also the material basis for international democratic planning. Camfield builds on this insight and communist thinkers’ works on the transition socialism to argue that workers’ democracy can only politically and militarily defeat capitalist empires through world revolution.
The tradition of anti-Stalinist communism Camfield builds on emerged in response to Stalin’s rise to power and against his notion of socialism in one country, enduring against dominant Communist currents under state repression, right-wing violence, and competition with official Communist parties. Camfield roots this tradition in the ideas of Marx, Frederick Engels, and William Morris, who emphasized the importance of working-class self-emancipation and democratic control. Rosa Luxemburg also embraced the same ideas in rejecting bureaucratic rule of party elites, particularly in the context of the Russian Revolution.
Other anti-Stalinist Marxist currents, including some Trotskyist currents that shape Tempest politics, have also advocated for democracy from below, working-class internationalism, and revolution against both capitalists and the bureaucratic rulers of actually existing socialism. However, in the place of a programmatic approach, Camfield leaves the reader with fragments of guiding principles and historical experience from the works of these thinkers that provide some direction but without enough clarity.
Camfield argues that the Left must recover the spirit of mass participation and proletarian internationalism that animated early revolutionary struggles, while soberly learning from authoritarian regressions of actually existing socialism. This means fostering revolutionary politics democratically accountable to movements from below, not insulated astroturf vanguards. It also means rethinking how revolutionary movements can build power across borders to avoid the fortress conditions of embattled socialist states. While Red Flags offers a compelling case for rejecting actually existing socialism as a model for communist transition, it only partially answers the strategic questions of how to construct a truly democratic and resilient revolutionary movement.
Nevertheless, Camfield argues that the failures of the socialist regimes of the last century should not lead to cynicism or fatalism. A renewed commitment to emancipatory politics, one not nostalgic for the past, but oriented toward a future in which collective democratic struggles for communist liberation can win genuine liberation. We still have nothing to lose but our chains and a world to win.
Since the dissolution of the Soviet Union, communist political currents aligned with the Marxist-Leninist regimes in Russia, China, and elsewhere have experienced major decline. Nevertheless, in recent years, organizations like the Communist Party USA and Party for Socialism and Liberation have experienced a modest resurgence through their involvement in antiwar movements, Black Lives Matter, the Palestinian liberation movement, and a growing online left media ecosystem.
This resurgence has contributed to an uncritical embrace of so-called actually existing socialism (AES) as a model for communist transition among a new layer of radicals and Marxists. U.S. leftists, disillusioned with crumbling public infrastructure and privatized welfare states, often view the rapid modernization of state institutions and provision of universal social services under these states as a meaningful alternative to the alienation of exploitation of capitalism.
The support of self-identified socialist states for some anti-imperialist movements and economic development projects in the Global South also position these regimes as adversaries of imperial dominance by the Global North, especially the United States. The relative weakness of anti-imperialist movements in the West provides fertile ground for a mythical glorification of these regimes’ otherwise inconsistent anti-imperialist record. But the contemporary reimagining of AES through developmentalist, redistributionist, and anti-imperialist lenses obscures the forms of class domination and oppression in these societies.

“Actually existing socialism” and the communist transition
David Camfield’s new book, Red Flags: A Reckoning with Communism for the Future of the Left, is a concise and insightful intervention into the renewed debates on the legacy of AES. Red Flags analyzes the revolutionary transformations that shaped the unique forms of class rule in the Soviet Union, People’s Republic of China, and Cuba in order to demolish anticommunist and “anti-anticommunist mythologies surrounding these societies.Following economist Jacques Sapir, Camfield characterizes AES regimes as “mobilization economies,” in which the state mobilized “all available resources, on a non-commercial basis.” The regimes prioritized the geopolitical interests of their respective party-state bureaucracies by imposing distinct forms of “state capitalism.”
While Camfield’s “reconstructed historical materialist” analysis and lessons he draws for the Left are mostly spot-on, his use of state capitalism as a framework to understand AES is less convincing. In this review, I will briefly summarize Camfield’s central arguments about AES before discussing their broader theoretical and political implications.
Why wasn’t AES socialism?
Camfield locates the renewed interest in AES regimes in anti-anticommunism. Since Western anticommunists (of liberal and conservative variants) have equated communism with fascism, the decline of the neoliberal consensus that followed the Soviet Union’s collapse paved the way for the revival of anti-anticommunism.
Camfield argues this tendency grew among certain Maoist currents in the 1960s’ New Left and has become more prominent as the disillusionment with neoliberal capitalism has led many to a search for alternatives in recent years. Anti-anticommunists’ nostalgic embrace of rival regimes to Western capitalism (including AES regimes, but often other developmentalist regimes too) raises real problems for the socialist left today as apologism for class oppression under AES regimes becomes more widespread.
Contrary to the claims of their proponents, the bureaucratic one-party regimes governing AES societies never aimed for democratic workers’ control or the abolition of exploitation and oppression. Camfield shows how workers experienced forms of political and economic domination under state managers who pursued economic goals that mimicked capitalist growth.
However, in the aftermath of rapid industrialization campaigns and wartime mobilizations, the AES command/mobilization economies experienced technical stagnation that made it difficult to develop the productivity of labor. This dynamic made it increasingly difficult for them to both maintain the social provisions they created during revolutionary upsurges (education, housing, health care) and compete militarily with capitalist empires. The survival of the redistributionist policies, as well as their episodic anti-imperialist campaigns, was contingent on their contribution to the survival of ruling party-state bureaucracies that overwhelmingly adopted capitalist methods of production in the face of stagnation.
Out of the three regimes discussed in Red Flags, only the revolutionary Russian state briefly embraced the goal of initiating a genuine communist transformation. After the fall of tsarism in February 1917, soviets (democratic workplace councils) seized power from a weak provisional government by October of that year. But the viability of the Bolshevik-led soviet regime depended on support from Russia’s small-peasant majority and, more crucially, an anticipated communist revolution in the more economically advanced Germany. When the German workers’ revolution failed, and the Russian Civil War depleted the ranks of Bolsheviks, Soviet democracy collapsed. By the end of the war, the soviets had become a bureaucratic extension of the party-state led by the Communist Party.
To stabilize a war-torn economy, the Bolsheviks introduced pro-market reforms under the New Economic Policy. After Vladimir Lenin’s death, Joseph Stalin’s “socialism in one country” faction seized control through a power struggle within the party, and repressed dissident factions by intensifying the political persecution that had commenced during the Civil War.
The 1928 “Great Break” launched waves of forced collectivization of land, rapid industrialization, and mass relocations, resulting in millions of deaths. “The first example in history of a government seeking to transform an entire economy and society through planned action by the state,” was driven by a perceived threat of war and a grain procurement crisis. While labor remained decommodified and workers held some leverage due to the absence of urban unemployment, workers remained alienated from their labor and the state, as they were compelled to pursue state economic targets and were banned from advocating for their interests through independent organizations. After World War II, as economic growth stalled, and decades of reforms failed to resolve this stagnation, the party-state gradually embraced a broader capitalist restructuring.
Stalin’s crash program of industrialization featured projects like the construction of the Dnieper hydroelectric station in 1931. Image author unknown.
Camfield shows that China and Cuba had even weaker ties to the goal of workers’ self-emancipation. The Communist Party of China, founded in 1921, initially aligned with the nationalist Guomindang regime under the Stalinist Comintern’s directives, but the party reoriented to a rural guerrilla strategy after the massacre of Communists in 1927. During its temporary reunion with the Guomindang against the genocidal Japanese invasion in the 1930s and 1940s, the party’s ranks swelled, allowing it to successfully defeat the weakened Guomindang after the war, despite Comintern efforts to force the two into coalition.
Although the Communist Party had broad support among the peasant majority after the People’s Republic of China was established in 1949, its path to power through conventional warfare meant democratic workers’ control was never on the table. While private enterprise was initially tolerated, the party adopted a mobilization economy in the early 1950s. Five-year plans and the Great Leap Forward led to famine and tens of millions of deaths as collectivization of land and industrialization were ramped up.
Mounting internal fractures drove Mao Zedong to launch the Cultural Revolution to reassert control in the 1960s, resulting in more violence and mass death. After Mao’s death in 1976, Deng Xiaoping began to phase out market restrictions while retaining an authoritarian one-party regime. Institutions like the hukou system, which restricts worker mobility between districts, kept labor cheap and disciplined, enabling a gradual privatization of land and state-owned enterprises alongside economic integration into Western markets. By the 1990s, China had become a global industrial hub, fostering a new capitalist elite while maintaining the Communist Party’s monopoly on state power.
[The] party-state regimes [of China and Cuba] emerged from revolutionary and anti-imperialist upheavals but rapidly subordinated popular forms of democratic control to geopolitical imperatives.
Cuba’s trajectory mirrored some of the same patterns as China, but without a path toward full economic independence. After centuries of Spanish colonialism and decades of U.S.-backed dictatorship under Fulgencio Batista, the July 26th Movement led by Fidel Castro overthrew Batista in 1959. While revolution enjoyed mass support in Cuba, the movement’s strategy was rooted in a struggle for anti-imperialist national liberation, not democratic workers’ control.
Under pressure from U.S. aggression, the regime aligned with the Soviet Union and became a party-state with a mobilization economy by 1965. While education and healthcare were modernized, industrialization never fully took off. This meant a political-economic dependency, enabling the suppression of independent unions, grassroots organizations, and dissent against the party-state. After the Soviet Union collapsed, Cuba turned to market reforms to survive, but only managed to foster a small private sector while seeing many social protections eroded under budget pressures.
As Camfield clearly shows, these party-state regimes emerged from revolutionary and anti-imperialist upheavals but rapidly subordinated popular forms of democratic control to geopolitical imperatives. While workers’ democracy in Russia collapsed under civil war and geopolitical isolation, leading to a bureaucratic apparatus that ultimately imploded, in China and Cuba revolutions rooted in peasant mobilization and nationalist resistance led to party-states that consolidated power without providing mechanisms for democratic workers’ control. A shared disavowal of proletarian agency in favor of bureaucratic command, justified by geopolitical and economic pressures, unified these regimes’ paths to eventual embrace of capitalistic economic goals, whatever socialist coloring they used to justify their policies.
State capitalism?
Camfield identifies the mode of production as “state capitalism,” while suggesting that, more important than this terminology is the fact that actually existing socialism “involves class exploitation, is not in transition to communism, and is neither qualitatively superior to nor worse than capitalism.”
At its core, though, labeling these systems as capitalist rests on an overly formalistic interpretation, defining capitalism merely by the presence of wage labor, accumulation, and industrialization. This approach, however, sidelines Karl Marx’s understanding of capitalism’s historical specificity: the pervasive dominance of abstract labor and the subordination of use-value production to value production. These dynamics only become possible under the “dull compulsion” of markets, where workers must sell their labor-power to survive, and enterprises must sell commodities profitably to avoid collapse.
Camfield’s assertion that AES regimes were capitalist, though distortedly so, fails to account for their fundamental lack of market-dependent classes, the absence of generalized commodity production and capitalist crises. While it is true that the growth in the production of goods and services slowed throughout the 1960s-70s in the USSR, roughly parallel to trends in the world economy, this does not mean that economic crises of AES are capitalist. Although labor-power might have been formally commodified and managed to improve productivity relative to Western standards, it was not disciplined by the threat of unemployment or market competition. Camfield acknowledges this (52) but does not clarify how then economic crises under AES could be capitalist.
This is important because it was these systems’ inherent inability to sustain productivity growth in the absence of market imperatives that triggered collapse or capitalist transition, not capitalist crises of profitability. Surplus labor was extracted through the direct administrative command and juridical control exercised by the party-state, not the dull compulsion of the market. While Camfield states that the size of the Soviet “military industrial complex” and “the structure of the bureaucratically directed mobilization economy” drove USSR’s stagnation and its inability to take advantage of the productivity boost provided to the West by neoliberalism, he does not clarify why the absence of capitalist crises, or the presence of state forms of domination over market ones are not indicators of a distinct mode of production.
In lieu of “state capitalism,” the notion of state collectivism offers a more coherent and analytically precise alternative. It recognizes the bureaucratic party-state’s monopolistic control over surplus appropriation without erroneously importing capitalist dynamics where they did not genuinely exist. The party-state’s command over the economy, while effective during early stages of industrialization, proved incapable of sustaining developmental momentum without restructuring to introduce and prioritize the growth of capitalist markets instead of the state bureaucracy.
The question of communist transition
The key question for the Left, however, is not just a theoretical one on the transition from one mode of production to another. It is about forms of democratic organization that can withstand and overcome capitalist sieges in moments of upsurge. As Camfield argues, communism is the project of subordinating economic and political power and all aspects of everyday life to democratic control. Yet, the antidemocratic culture of the Communist Parties of actually existing socialism went beyond their embrace of labor exploitation.
State repression in these regimes helped crystallize forms of racial and gender-based oppression while legitimizing imperialist domination abroad. Camfield shows how the women’s movements’ initial gains in revolutionary moments were undermined by the reimposition of patriarchal laws later. LGBT+ people experienced similar forms of repression in all three Communist regimes discussed in Red Flags.
In the Soviet Union and China, minority populations were systematically subjected to forced dispossession and labor, coerced assimilation, and militarized surveillance. In Cuba, racism against Afro-Cubans also persisted, though in less repressive forms. The international solidarity of these regimes displayed has also been a matter of realpolitik, often sacrificing Communist and anti-imperialist movements in alliances with so-called progressive capitalist blocs against fascism.
AES regimes were coercive, however, not only because of their structures, but because of the pressures imposed on them by a hostile world system. Embargoes, sabotage, war, and isolation these regimes faced favored militarization, centralization of power, and the suppression of dissent in the name of survival. To centralize power and defend their revolutions, these regimes often massacred mass democratic movements that made their societies revolutionary in the first place. Camfield insists that the communist horizon today must be grounded in a conception of abundance, not based on state quotas attained through repression and exploitation, but one based on the guarantee that no one’s existence depends on hierarchy or deprivation.
In this light, the key task of communist transition is building democratic working-class organizations that can withstand domestic and imperialist pressures. As Camfield reminds us history is not predetermined, and the question of how democratic working class movements can seize political ruptures rather than letting them harden into authoritarian structures remains alive. A successful communist transition requires democratic working-class organizations to not just crush state or market-based forms of domination, but to also simultaneously transform state machinery to withstand a capitalist siege that will encourage militarization and authoritarian tendencies.
Camfield argues that the Left must [foster] revolutionary politics democratically accountable to movements from below, not insulated astroturf vanguards.
The Left’s main advantage today, relative to communists of the last century, is that capitalism has already created unprecedented global interdependence of labor and technology, and therefore also the material basis for international democratic planning. Camfield builds on this insight and communist thinkers’ works on the transition socialism to argue that workers’ democracy can only politically and militarily defeat capitalist empires through world revolution.
The tradition of anti-Stalinist communism Camfield builds on emerged in response to Stalin’s rise to power and against his notion of socialism in one country, enduring against dominant Communist currents under state repression, right-wing violence, and competition with official Communist parties. Camfield roots this tradition in the ideas of Marx, Frederick Engels, and William Morris, who emphasized the importance of working-class self-emancipation and democratic control. Rosa Luxemburg also embraced the same ideas in rejecting bureaucratic rule of party elites, particularly in the context of the Russian Revolution.
Other anti-Stalinist Marxist currents, including some Trotskyist currents that shape Tempest politics, have also advocated for democracy from below, working-class internationalism, and revolution against both capitalists and the bureaucratic rulers of actually existing socialism. However, in the place of a programmatic approach, Camfield leaves the reader with fragments of guiding principles and historical experience from the works of these thinkers that provide some direction but without enough clarity.
Camfield argues that the Left must recover the spirit of mass participation and proletarian internationalism that animated early revolutionary struggles, while soberly learning from authoritarian regressions of actually existing socialism. This means fostering revolutionary politics democratically accountable to movements from below, not insulated astroturf vanguards. It also means rethinking how revolutionary movements can build power across borders to avoid the fortress conditions of embattled socialist states. While Red Flags offers a compelling case for rejecting actually existing socialism as a model for communist transition, it only partially answers the strategic questions of how to construct a truly democratic and resilient revolutionary movement.
Nevertheless, Camfield argues that the failures of the socialist regimes of the last century should not lead to cynicism or fatalism. A renewed commitment to emancipatory politics, one not nostalgic for the past, but oriented toward a future in which collective democratic struggles for communist liberation can win genuine liberation. We still have nothing to lose but our chains and a world to win.
Since the dissolution of the Soviet Union, communist political currents aligned with the Marxist-Leninist regimes in Russia, China, and elsewhere have experienced major decline. Nevertheless, in recent years, organizations like the Communist Party USA and Party for Socialism and Liberation have experienced a modest resurgence through their involvement in antiwar movements, Black Lives Matter, the Palestinian liberation movement, and a growing online left media ecosystem.
This resurgence has contributed to an uncritical embrace of so-called actually existing socialism (AES) as a model for communist transition among a new layer of radicals and Marxists. U.S. leftists, disillusioned with crumbling public infrastructure and privatized welfare states, often view the rapid modernization of state institutions and provision of universal social services under these states as a meaningful alternative to the alienation of exploitation of capitalism.
The support of self-identified socialist states for some anti-imperialist movements and economic development projects in the Global South also position these regimes as adversaries of imperial dominance by the Global North, especially the United States. The relative weakness of anti-imperialist movements in the West provides fertile ground for a mythical glorification of these regimes’ otherwise inconsistent anti-imperialist record.

Which was an easily verifiable lie that I realized literally as I closed the door behind me. Ah, yes, since I quit "at my own request", I have to work for three days, so called "otrabotka" (two weeks if you were taken without probation), which I will not do (devilish?), because after signing my resignation letter I am no longer an employee and can not be forced to work.
Also new thing I learned opening the labor code for the first time.
-there is no concept of working after dismissal, but there is a concept of notification before dismissal, so it should be 3 days or 2 weeks before the fact.
Thanks for reading my stupid rant.

Was tricked to sign a letter of resignation from my job at the russian post office. Despite the fact that I was on probation and my employment contract was fixed-term (although informally after its termination they almost always offer a full-time position) my…I don't know - supervisor? the main bitch of the workplace? didn't like me because of a couple of fuckups like a cash shortage, which I was really guilty of and paid for out of my own pocket (the statement of financial responsibility was signed by me on the first day of employment), and she decided to lie that the employee I was replacing was about to go to work.Which was an easily verifiable lie that I realized literally as I closed the door behind me.
