Why are rightoids so obsessed with muh objective morality?
It was a major talking point of the 2000s culture wars between the Religious Right vs. liberals, namely the belief that the right-wing upheld the notion that there is an objective truth and an objective morality that stems from it, while liberals (and genuine leftists for that matter) were portrayed as staunch believers in moral relativism which they acquired through "worshipping" science and history in lieu of religion.
So how does this belief in objective moral truth fit in with the greater right-wing agenda? How does the exploiter class benefit from proles believing in objective morality?

The 2003 US invasion of Iraq was arguably one of the worst human rights atrocities of the past 50 years. Over 1 million Iraqi CIVILIANS were killed. If that's not a low key genocide similar to Gaza I don't know what is. But it's even worse knowing this war was based entirely on a gigantic lie (a "noble lie" if you will) by some of the slimiest, most diabolical villains ever known to American politics. Yes, Dick Cheney, Colin Powell and Donald Rumsfeld are dead and rotting in hell. But George W Bush, Paul Wolfowitz and Douglas Feith are still alive. Neocons Bill Kristol, Robert Kagan and John Bolton who were the top dogs in PNAC (Project for a New American Century), which called for massive military spending and preemptive attacks (also a "New Pearl Harbor" which conveniently happened on 9/11) are also still alive. WHY HAVEN'T ANY OF THEM EVER BEEN CHARGED AS WAR CRIMINALS?????
The Straussian cabal is very real and still holds loads of ideological power within American politics. Many Neocons from the Bush II era have now since become Democrats and publicly supported Kamala Harris over Trump on the basis Trump wasn't Neocon enough. These people have names and addresses and have to face some kind of legal penalties so the world can finally have closure and the Neocon war criminals can finally reap what they sowed.

Why were so many communist leaders so callous about the lives of workers?
It seems like they cared more about trying to create a productive developed society than the people that society would actually be created for.

Gaston is a popular, masculine man of the people. He's portrayed as a charismatic leader who organizes the effort to kill the Beast, who is depicted as a cruel noble elite. The fact that Gaston is French, that red is strongly associated with his character and the recent Disney prequel project about him would great potential.

<A house may be large or small; as long as the neighboring houses are likewise small, it satisfies all social requirement for a residence. But let there arise next to the little house a palace, and the little house shrinks to a hut. The little house now makes it clear that its inmate has no social position at all to maintain, or but a very insignificant one; and however high it may shoot up in the course of civilization, if the neighboring palace rises in equal or even in greater measure, the occupant of the relatively little house will always find himself more uncomfortable, more dissatisfied, more cramped within his four walls. An appreciable rise in wages presupposes a rapid growth of productive capital. Rapid growth of productive capital calls forth just as rapid a growth of wealth, of luxury, of social needs and social pleasures. Therefore, although the pleasures of the labourer have increased, the social gratification which they afford has fallen in comparison with the increased pleasures of the capitalist, which are inaccessible to the worker, in comparison with the stage of development of society in general. Our wants and pleasures have their origin in society; we therefore measure them in relation to society; we do not measure them in relation to the objects which serve for their gratification. Since they are of a social nature, they are of a relative nature.
- Karl Marx, Wage Labour and Capital (1847), Chapter 6
Basically he is saying that being well-off isn't just about what you have, it's also about what everyone else has. If your income goes up but rich people's wealth increases much faster, you may actually feel poorer compared with them. Humans naturally compare themselves with other people, so our idea of what we need depends partly on the society we live in.
<The thoughts of every piece of private property as such are at least turned against richer private property in the form of envy and the desire to level everything down; hence these feelings in fact constitute the essence of competition. The crude communist is merely the culmination of this envy and desire to level down on the basis of a preconceived minimum. It has a definite, limited measure. How little this abolition of private property is a true appropriation is shown by the abstract negation of the entire world of culture and civilization, and the return to the unnatural simplicity of the poor, unrefined man who has no needs and who has not yet even reached the stage of private property, let alone gone beyond it. (For crude communism) the community is simply a community of labor and equality of wages, which are paid out by the communal capital, the community as universal capitalist. Both sides of the relation are raised to an unimaginary universality – labor as the condition in which everyone is placed and capital as the acknowledged universality and power of the community. […] The first positive abolition of private property – crude communism – is therefore only a manifestation of the vileness of private property trying to establish itself as the positive community. […] By reducing the worker's needs to the paltriest minimum necessary to maintain his physical existence and by reducing his activity to the most abstract mechanical movement. In so doing, the political economist declares that man has no other needs, either in the sphere of activity or in that of consumption. For even this life he calls human life and human existence. By taking as his standard – his universal standard, in the sense that it applies to the mass of men – the worst possible state of privation which life (existence) can know. He turns the worker into a being with neither needs nor senses and turn the worker's activity into a pure abstraction from all activity. Hence any luxury that the worker might enjoy is reprehensible, and anything that goes beyond the most abstract need – either in the form of passive enjoyment or active expression – appears to him as a luxury.
- Karl Marx, Economic and Philosophical Manuscripts, Third Manuscript, Private Property and Labor (1844)
Marx is pointing out that making everyone equally poor isn't real freedom. If you eliminate private property as an institution of class society, but give everyone only the bare minimum, you've solved inequality by making everyone live with less. Human beings need more than food and shelter, they also need culture, enjoyment, creativity, education, and opportunities to develop themselves.
Our idea of being well off depends partly on how other people live, and he thinks both extreme wealth and extreme attempts to eliminate personal property can reduce human freedom and satisfaction. Two different things can be true at once. Extreme inequality can make people dissatisfied even when their material lives improve. Simply making everyone materially equal isn't enough if people are denied the ability to develop themselves and enjoy life. Human well-being is more complicated than simply counting how many possessions someone has. A person can have more stuff than they had before and still feel relatively poor. And a society can make everyone materially equal without necessarily giving people a rich, fulfilling human life. This is why bourgeois propaganda about how you should be grateful because you have better medicine than a bronze age king or a lower mortality rate than a feudal peasant falls flat. People aren't comparing themselves with the past, not even the very wealthy people of the past. This is also why workers in the imperial core aren't comparing their standard of living with the workers of the periphery, instead they compare their standard of living with the wealthy from their own societies. It is more visible and more obvious. Nobody working at McDonalds in Alabama is going to say "I have it so good compared to a in Indian in New Delhi, I should be happy with this."

Marx actually thinks “luxury” can be part of human development. Marx isn't simply arguing that equality = happiness.
Young Marx
What Young Marx actually thought about personal wealth and standard of living:<A house may be large or small; as long as the neighboring houses are likewise small, it satisfies all social requirement for a residence. But let there arise next to the little house a palace, and the little house shrinks to a hut. The little house now makes it clear that its inmate has no social position at all to maintain, or but a very insignificant one; and however high it may shoot up in the course of civilization, if the neighboring palace rises in equal or even in greater measure, the occupant of the relatively little house will always find himself more uncomfortable, more dissatisfied, more cramped within his four walls. An appreciable rise in wages presupposes a rapid growth of productive capital. Rapid growth of productive capital calls forth just as rapid a growth of wealth, of luxury, of social needs and social pleasures. Therefore, although the pleasures of the labourer have increased, the social gratification which they afford has fallen in comparison with the increased pleasures of the capitalist, which are inaccessible to the worker, in comparison with the stage of development of society in general. Our wants and pleasures have their origin in society; we therefore measure them in relation to society; we do not measure them in relation to the objects which serve for their gratification. Since they are of a social nature, they are of a relative nature.
- Karl Marx, Wage Labour and Capital (1847), Chapter 6
Basically he is saying that being well-off isn't just about what you have, it's also about what everyone else has. If your income goes up but rich people's wealth increases much faster, you may actually feel poorer compared with them. Humans naturally compare themselves with other people, so our idea of what we need depends partly on the society we live in.
<The thoughts of every piece of private property as such are at least turned against richer private property in the form of envy and the desire to level everything down; hence these feelings in fact constitute the essence of competition. The crude communist is merely the culmination of this envy and desire to level down on the basis of a preconceived minimum. It has a definite, limited measure. How little this abolition of private property is a true appropriation is shown by the abstract negation of the entire world of culture and civilization, and the return to the unnatural simplicity of the poor, unrefined man who has no needs and who has not yet even reached the stage of private property, let alone gone beyond it. (For crude communism) the community is simply a community of labor and equality of wages, which are paid out by the communal capital, the community as universal capitalist. Both sides of the relation are raised to an unimaginary universality – labor as the condition in which everyone is placed and capital as the acknowledged universality and power of the community. […] The first positive abolition of private property – crude communism – is therefore only a manifestation of the vileness of private property trying to establish itself as the positive community. […] By reducing the worker's needs to the paltriest minimum necessary to maintain his physical existence and by reducing his activity to the most abstract mechanical movement. In so doing, the political economist declares that man has no other needs, either in the sphere of activity or in that of consumption. For even this life he calls human life and human existence. By taking as his standard – his universal standard, in the sense that it applies to the mass of men – the worst possible state of privation which life (existence) can know. He turns the worker into a being with neither needs nor senses and turn the worker's activity into a pure abstraction from all activity. Hence any luxury that the worker might enjoy is reprehensible, and anything that goes beyond the most abstract need – either in the form of passive enjoyment or active expression – appears to him as a luxury.
- Karl Marx, Economic and Philosophical Manuscripts, Third Manuscript, Private Property and Labor (1844)
Marx is pointing out that making everyone equally poor isn't real freedom. If you eliminate private property as an institution of class society, but give everyone only the bare minimum, you've solved inequality by making everyone live with less. Human beings need more than food and shelter, they also need culture, enjoyment, creativity, education, and opportunities to develop themselves.
Our idea of being well off depends partly on how other people live, and he thinks both extreme wealth and extreme attempts to eliminate personal property can reduce human freedom and satisfaction. Two different things can be true at once. Extreme inequality can make people dissatisfied even when their material lives improve. Simply making everyone materially equal isn't enough if people are denied the ability to develop themselves and enjoy life. Human well-being is more complicated than simply counting how many possessions someone has. A person can have more stuff than they had before and still feel relatively poor. And a society can make everyone materially equal without necessarily giving people a rich, fulfilling human life. This is why bourgeois propaganda about how you should be grateful because you have better medicine than a bronze age king or a lower mortality rate than a feudal peasant falls flat. People aren't comparing themselves with the past, not even the very wealthy people of the past. This is also why workers in the imperial core aren't comparing their standard of living with the workers of the periphery, instead they compare their standard of living with the wealthy from their own societies. It is more visible and more obvious. Nobody working at McDonalds in Alabama is going to say "I have it so good compared to a in Indian in New Delhi, I should be happy with this."

>Freedom to trade in grain is a return to capitalism, to the full power of the landowners and capitalists, to a savage struggle between people for profit, to the "free" enrichment of the few, to the poverty of the masses, to the eternal bondage we see in all bourgeois states, including the freest and most democratic republics.

I don't draw the comparison between these two quotes to say that Lenin was wrong or bad or stupid, on the contrary, I think the contradictions of actually seizing and wielding power are more complex than what revolutionary theory can prepare you for. This does not mean that every last bit of revisionism and opportunism are justified, but it also means you shouldn't dismiss every hard decision that someone makes in real life as revisionism or opportunism, no?

No you always play as the US marines. Because it’s meant to be pro us military propaganda. Just like Starship Troopers hides behind fake bullshit “anti war” veil that doesn’t mean anything because it’s still a pro us military movie.

Was Stalin responsible for Warsaw destruction the same way he lost Katyn case in Nuremberg?
Dachau and Buchenwald aren't mentioned in the sentencing either, weirdly enough. Auschwitz had an episode of women getting neutered in indictment, but no mention of it in the sentencing. Were the Soviets responsible for all of those, I wonder? Judging by how it is claimed that since Katyn is missing in the sentencing, it means that court refused the accusation
Katyn stuff
Why was Warsaw's destruction not declared a Nazi war crime by Nuremberg? Was it actually destroyed by Soviets? There was no Warsaw destruction listed in court sentence anywhere, despite Poles putting loads of documents for the court to consider, just like Soviets did with Katyn, but were repelled by the court.Was Stalin responsible for Warsaw destruction the same way he lost Katyn case in Nuremberg?

When the time comes to look at Marxism in Western politics, however, the influence of Christianity in the construction of the symbolic, subjective and theoretical universe of this Marxism is rarely taken into account. It is as if in Asia, Confucianism has an influence on politics, in Africa, Islam has an influence on politics, but in Brazil, in the US, in France, in Portugal, Christianity does not perform a similar role in forming historic subjectivity. This is a mistake for a very simple and objective reason, which Antonio Gramsci points out in several different passages of Prison Notebooks: the Catholic Church is the longest operating institution in the West. No other institution has managed to stay alive for so long with the capacity to disseminate and circulate ideas and concepts, through a body of intellectual priests, bishops and theologians, organized within a bureaucracy like the Catholic Church has. So it is impossible to speak seriously about Marxism, politics, subjectivity, culture, and the symbolic field in the West without incorporating the role of Christianity in each social formation, in each specific country as elements of analysis.
I believe it is impossible to understand the phenomenon that is poorly described as “populism” (a term which I do not use), of this relationship of the popular classes with people like Lula, Getúlio Vargas, Miguel Arraes, Brizola, Perón, Velasco Ibarra, and Hugo Chávez without understanding the basic configurations of the Catholic relationship between devotees and saints. Obviously this is not the only explanation, but there is a symbolic element in the political structure of this relationship. I have been thinking about this for a long time. It is not my idea — Domenico Losurdo and Roland Boer have written about how the fetish for defeat is one of the fundamental characteristics of Western Marxism and how this is a misunderstood derivative of Christian culture.
Western Marxism, the Fetish for Defeat, and Christian Culture (2020)
There is a fundamental contradiction in many of the Marxist studies that are produced in the West. Every time that they speak of Marxism in Asia — in China, Korea or Vietnam — or when they speak of popular movements in Africa such as in Egypt or Libya, they highlight the influence of religion on these political movements and the national adaptation of Marxism. When any Marxist researcher studies, for example, Chinese Marxism, they are obliged to address the influence of Confucius’ philosophy on Chinese culture in a general manner and on Chinese Marxism in particular. Likewise, the influence that Islam has on many African countries is always taken into account, or the influence of Confucianism in Asia more generally.When the time comes to look at Marxism in Western politics, however, the influence of Christianity in the construction of the symbolic, subjective and theoretical universe of this Marxism is rarely taken into account.

got to sign some documents, they took my ID and i paid for the tests, a while in i got called for getting my blood drawn, the usual at this point; they got 2 tubes of blood and had me in for some questions regarding my medical background, after that i was taken to the "sample room" which was basically like a sink, a chair and a TV.
so i did some hand washing and such and i had downloaded a bunch of stuff in my phone yesterday, the whole time feeling like i'd just burst and ruin the 3-5 days abstinence recommended.
but i had already washed my hands and i don't think washing my phone be viable + i'd have to hold my phone as well as the sample cup and everything?
so i just used the TV with the USB which was kinda slow so i just kinda did a faproulette with it and actually seeing the sample size i got scared it'd be too small but it was just about 0.2ml short according to the doctors; besides that the sample was very good and i'll be able to freeze from 2 to 4 vials with a doctor's recommendation and go back on estrogen hopefully by next month.
overall everything is going fine which is scary because whenever things are going fine i get this feeling of calm before the storm.

From around 125 m (400 ft) above the savannah, Gheysen noticed something resembling a very large moving tree trunk beside a destroyed termite mound. By the time Gheysen was able to adjust his microphone and inform Van Lierde, the helicopter, which was flying at 120 kmph (74 mph) had moved on by around a mile, but Van Lierde turned and flew back to the spot, where the "tree trunk" was found to be a large snake. Van Lierde flew lower and made several passes over the snake,[3] allowing Kindt, the only man on board with a camera, to take a single photograph. Concern regarding the helicopter's fuel level allegedly prevented the helicopter from remaining long enough for a second photograph.[1]
The local Katangans and Kasaians, who called pythons moma, reserved the special name pumina (French: poumina) for such giant specimens. A settler, Michel Vermersch, had reportedly once fled from a pumina around 175 km northwest of Kamina, on the Kamina-Luluabourg Railway.
The immediate size estimate of the four airmen was approximately 14 m (45 ft), with a triangular head 80 cm (2 ft) at its widest point.

According to the account received by Bernard Heuvelmans, the photograph was taken in August 1959, on an undeterminated date, but at mid-day. The photo was taken from a helicopter returning to Kamina with pilot Colonel Remy Van Lierde DFC, Colonel Gheysen, parachutist Major Defebve DSO, and engineer Adjudant Kindt on board. The helicopter had been flying over a lightly-wooded shrub savannah approximately 100 km (60 miles) north north-west of Kamina. The average height of the vegetation was 2 m (6 ft), but gallery forests and thickets of trees were also present.From around 125 m (400 ft) above the savannah, Gheysen noticed something resembling a very large moving tree trunk beside a destroyed termite mound.

The local Katangans and Kasaians, who called pythons moma, reserved the special name pumina (French: poumina) for such giant specimens. A settler, Michel Vermersch, had reportedly once fled from a pumina around 175 km northwest of Kamina, on the Kamina-Luluabourg Railway.
The immediate size estimate of the four airmen was approximately 14 m (45 ft), with a triangular head 80 cm (2 ft) at its widest point.

I remember being at a protest a while ago and an iranian dissident started harassing one of the MLs in the protest for carrying an iranian flag (because thats the start of the US raping iran), nothing of high autism score was screamed and it was purely seething.
I also remember meeting an iranian dissident, although much more relaxed that called herself "persian", and she was saying the government wanted everyone to be "muslim". The problem with her is that "persia" started being called iran in the 1930's, way before the iranian revolution in 1979, so i don't understand this thinking other then she hasn't researched or she might be zoroastrin.
A retarded protest I saw was those monarchist ones, it happened when i was a kid on vacation so I don't have great memory but I do remember seeing how absolutely lazy the chants they were using, it was purely like "the Shah will liberate Iran", "islam will not take over". Just pure low autism score islam bashing and worshipping a failed monarchist acting like somehow he didn't genocide groups of people and restrict/ban civllian government.

consider a grid of cells, each with a value between 0 and 1
1 represents absolute power. 0 represents absolute weakness, or slavery if you will.
all cells start off with a value of 0.4-0.6 to represent natural variation in abilities. this is "primitive communism" cells can slowly accumulate power from the environment through their independent or cooperative labor. in the case of cooperative labor they share the proceeds. cells can also become bound to each other in groups of arbitrary size through confederation. cells can also rob their neighbors of power through competitive behavior. there are two flavors of competitive behavior "envious" where you try to rob a stronger neighbor, but have a higher chance of losing, but also a bigger reward, and "wrathful" where you rob a weaker neighbor, with a higher chance of winning, but also a lower reward. similarly cooperative behavior has two flavors, "philanthropic" where a cell tries to help weaker neighbors, even though they help they get back will be less than they gave away, and "pragmatic" where a cell tries to help stronger neighbors in exchange for protection.
what we find is that power accumulates very quickly in cells, and that "primitive communism" falls apart very quickly. the simulation, no matter how equal it is configured to start out in, very quickly devolves into "class society."
we also find that cells tend to favor "wrathful" competitive behaviors and "pragmatic" cooperative behaviors, sucking up to the powerful, and punching down on the weak. Confederations of cells, when they do form, reproduce these behaviors at the group level, punching down on weaker groups, and sucking up to stronger groups.
The limit to this process seems to be the material available for consumption in the environment.
what we have yet to discover is a way to achieve equal-ish distribution of power that is relatively stable.
our simulation studies continue…

A UK company, a Greek owner and Netanyahu's former lawyer: Who really owns Serbia's Israeli drone venture?
Initial reports described a 51-49 joint venture between Elbit and Yugoimport-SDPR. Current company records do not reflect that structure. Instead, Serbian business records identify the owner of the drone factory as SDS Technologies, founded in April 2025 under the name Cupa Enterprises. A UK company previously called Cupa Limited owns it. The Serbian Business Registry lists three SDS Technologies directors as of 17 September: Greek citizen Maria Kardamaki, Israeli lawyer Zion Amir, who has represented Benjamin Netanyahu, and George Antoine Elghossain from the United States with Lebanese roots.

Italy bans burqas in schools, caps numbers of foreign students per class
It introduces "A 30 percent cap on the number of students in a class who do not have an adequate command of Italian, more tools for learning our language, and a ban on the burqa and niqab in schools," Meloni wrote on social media. If a child seriously struggles to integrate at school, social services will be called and the parents will be obliged to attend free Italian lessons. Failure to comply will be punished with a fine of up to 1,000 euros ($1,140).

Gold exporters accuse influential actors of draining Sudan’s gold wealth
Sudan produces more than 70 tonnes of gold a year worth an estimated $8 billion, but only about $2 billion reaches the state treasury, according to Abdelmoneim Siddig, head of the Gold Exporters Division. In an interview with Radio Dabanga today, Siddig said gold could help Sudan tackle its economic crisis and provide much-needed foreign currency but alleged that influential entities export gold outside formal channels.

The Chinese question is: how does a comfy non-imperialist nation transform itself into a global socialist model that can be reproduced and adopted by the rest of the world, without either reproducing the aggressive and counter-productive policies of the USSR or appearing toothless, while resolving the contradictions of the so-called first world FOR THEM and liberating them from capitalist domination, therefore using the empire's collapse to accelerate material conditions to enable the global revolution?

A major problem I've been noticing through the years is that nobody fucking understands what dialectical materialism actually is. This book is entirely about explaining dialectical materialism.
Of course, it speaks of the philosophies that come before it but only to explain dialectical materialism itself (this is by itself a dialectical process, btw)
Read this shit and spread it!

Gender dysphoria doesn't always have to mean that you want to be another gender. It could even include that you're suffering because you're not fulfilling your ideal of your self-identified gender and in that case, it resolves with age because ideals change.
Weininger → Evola → Mishima
Both Weininger and Mishima died to suicide and Weininger studied and released a book on gender before he died at a young age. Mishima lived for decades in love with the idea of his own death and prepared for it. He wasn't stereotypically straight and was fully aware of Magnus Hirschfeld's work on LGBTQ+ as a Japanese writer.
If both Weininger and Mishima had personal troubles with gender, did Evola too have trouble with gender?

My theymab older brother always gets away with it and I'm honestly shocked. You think one of his transgressions would catch up to him but no. First he sexually assaults me countless times over 2 years, then tries to do it to my sister (and fails from what I know), then he convinces my parents to deny me hrt when I was a minor and then finally he attempts to molest the sister of one of his childhood friends. *Also, he probably grooms repressing trans men into not transitioning (from what I know). All of this is typical rapist cishet male behaviour, but done under the veneer of being "nonbinary" and "queer".
When it comes to how often he raped me, I dont know the true number as it was simply that many "sessions", but I can give an estimate. If we say that it was weekly and there are about 50 weeks in a year, then it would amount to 50 times a year; we then double it to account for two years between the ages of 5 and 7 for a final value of 100 times. Now this is a very conservative estimate, if we say biweekly, then it would ammount to 100 times per year for a total value of 200 times. A close estimate is probably far less conservative than these values, its probably close to 400 - 600 times, as it was usually every other day, with several rapes happening in a single day. For more anecdotal and less rigorous evidence of his crimes; he would usually say very rapey things while raping me, a couple I remember are: "you know you want it" and "when we are old men in our 40s we will laugh at this", these lines often will ring through my head at my worst moments.
Now when he tried to do it to my sister, my sister eventually reported it, well the best a 5 year old child could report it. My sister was most likely spared from his crimes as she had a separate room and was also a cis girl (typically my parents really only care about rape or violence or threats of it when it comes to her but not to me).
When my parents learned of this when I was 7, they shamed me and removed my brother of all guilt, letting him off the hook. He stopped raping me, started to be my "friend" and I was supposed to never talk about it ever again. Eventually after living with him in the same house for another decade I simply broke and couldnt take it anymore; I reported it to my parents. My parents seemed to have completely forgetten what happened, they separated me but not him from the rest of the family. I went to live with my grandparents and eventually had to live on my own (with my parents support thankfully). Now this isnt a dissertation against my parents, they could certainly be worse, at least I have a roof over my head, school and HRT. Worst thing is that my brother even admitted to raping me to my parents.
Around this time that I came forward to my parents, my mother also told me that "something happened between x person (who was the sister of my brothers childhood friend) and my brother", she was 15 and he was 19. My mother went into detail saying that he "touched" her and that "she now wants nothing to do with him". Again I must say, this is a second hand account, but I wouldnt be suprised if he did it. Whatever happened my brother got away with it again, and this time it was literally ILLEGAL.
Another great transgression he did is that he convinced my parents to deny me HRT when I was a minor and in desperate need of it. He claimed to be "trans" and "having the same condition as me", when he was literally nothing more than a 6'2 cishet male with they/them pronouns. After introducing his premise he then concluded that as a "trans" person, HRT, especially diy HRT was "dangerous" and "expensive" to my parents and that I should have "body positivity". The irony of that coming from a 6'2 theymab, literally life on easy mode for him. I will never forgive neither him nor my parents for making me repress until I was 18, the pain from the wrong puberty was immense and almost killed me. Honestly this was the worst of all of the transgressions. Going through wrong puberty is literal torture for trans kids.
Finally he loves to claim to be "queer" and "gay", but never seems to have the courage to date anyone who isnt a theyfab/cis woman. Worst of all is that he uses his claimed "queer" identity to take advantage of transsex male repressors. I find the infatilization of transsex males and the never ending attempts by cissexuals to detransition them to be disgusting.
My brother is a 6'2 cishet theymab who gets easy pussy from transsex male repressors and theyfabs whilst larping as having a "queer" identity. Like fuckoff, he will get rightfully purged after the revolution.

There needs to be proletarian disability justice movement. I think communists have ended up being pushed into seeing disability justice as some kind of frivolous idpol, and its not helped by the fact that so much of it is carried by very shortsighted middle-class ppl right now. The movement for disability rights has become associated with unreasonable, aggressive attempts at gaining accommodation (sometimes in cases where a reasonable discussion about accommodation could be had). While the actual ways that accommodation could begin to be pushed for, especially in working class context, are completely ignored.
Disabled people exist in the proletariat. Even when they're shut out of working jobs, they end up being confronted with the issue of being cared for. Their families, also working class, end up with this responsibility, and will have to make immense sacrifices (at least for mid-to-higher supports-need disabled individuals) as they can't afford daily care workers (usually). A lot of times they will opt out of this and abandon the disabled individual, to either die on the streets or end up in a poorly-funded public care facility, where the exact support services that they need are neglected and they live a terrible, shortened life. Even some disabled individuals with bourgeois family paying for their care deal with some of these problems, but of course the ones with working class origins have a much more guaranteed miserable fate.
Unions could fight for better workplace accommodation for the supports needs of disabled workers. The workplace is an extremely critical site for disability rights to be fought for within. And the issues of disabled workers should be addressed by their comrades. More public money could be spent on public care services that either work with families or host the disabled individual in a facility. These services could be empathetically based on the supports that a person needs

<hurrr but who would work without profit motive???? you ever thought about that commie?
where fans have for one reason or another put in a great deal of time and effort to maintain or recreate digital experiences.
For example, I stumbled on some videos for a fan recreation of TIE fighter which, from the clips of it, looks really neat. It seems like video related is a mod based off of another mod for the million year old X-wing Alliance engine. I need to look further into it and see if it's built off of the original game, or its own standalone deal meant to mimic it.
Then there's also Tamriel Reborn that seems like it isn't just a remake of the original, but actually expands on the original Morrowind, I guess to add back in all of the content that had to be cut. Apparently they've been going at it since 2001.

Thursday’s report suggests that progress has lost momentum as unemployment edges higher and rising prices squeeze Argentines’ purchasing power, with average salaries still below where they stood in real terms when Milei took office in December 2023. Average per-capita household income rose 11.5% from the previous six months, while the basic basket of goods used to set the poverty line increased nearly 20%, INDEC said.

Illegal Speedboat Incursion Into Cuba Sought a U.S. Military Intervention
One of the participants revealed that the group of ten men who departed from the Florida Keys bound for the island with weapons, ammunition, and explosives wanted to “incite the Cuban people to take up arms, control a province for 72 hours,” and then request assistance from U.S. authorities. The Belly of the Beast’s investigation shares the testimonies of four survivors of the incident, which occurred in Cuban territorial waters and resulted in the deaths of four crew members.

Canadian unions oppose changes to country’s labour code
The Building Canada Strong Act has been tabled in Canada’s House of Commons, alongside other measures aimed at fast-tracking “project approvals,” strengthening trade links and modernising ports. But unions say this could also mean greater state intervention in collective bargaining when negotiations become protracted by including the appointment of a “special mediator” to bring about a resolution to a dispute, including “binding arbitration.”

France to send military to protect Saudi Arabia on Red Sea oil route, Macron says
France will send troops and defence systems to Saudi Arabia to help protect the Red Sea port city of Yanbu, which is key for energy transport, French President Emmanuel Macron said on Thursday. Macron also said a US ban on diesel exports, which the White House has denied is under consideration, would be "catastrophic," both globally and for the US economy.

Rebel offensive against Ethiopian army stokes fears of return to civil war
The TPLF’s vice-president, Amanuel Assefa, told AFP: “We are in the situation of full-blown war now.” He confirmed Tigrayan forces were fighting alongside local armed groups in Afar and Amhara. The group took control of Abala, also on the Tigray-Afar border, on Wednesday, a foreign security source based in Ethiopia told AFP, while a TPLF source said they had seized several other towns in Afar. The foreign security source also said there was fighting around the Amhara town of Weldiya – one of the few routes to the capital.

Indonesia reflags a former Italian warship as its first aircraft carrier
The carrier, which Italy retired in 2024, arrived at the Indonesian seaport last week after a 25-day journey passing through the Suez Canal, the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean. It has the capacity for short takeoff and vertical landing aircraft and helicopters. Unlike major naval powers, Indonesia will use the vessel as a mobile command and support hub for helicopters, drones and maritime operations across the archipelago.

Pakistan-administered Kashmir votes for president amid unrest
Najeeb Naqi Khan, the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) candidate, is expected to win. The party and its allies hold 32 of the 46 occupied seats in the 53-member Legislative Assembly, five more than the 27 votes required. The Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) holds 14. But questions surrounding months of deadly unrest persist, as seven seats remain vacant because two districts at the centre of the protest movement have yet to vote.

Average per-capita household income rose 11.5% from the previous six months, while the basic basket of goods used to set the poverty line increased nearly 20%, INDEC said.

Illegal Speedboat Incursion Into Cuba Sought a U.S. Military Intervention
One of the participants revealed that the group of ten men who departed from the Florida Keys bound for the island with weapons, ammunition, and explosives wanted to “incite the Cuban people to take up arms, control a province for 72 hours,” and then request assistance from U.S. authorities. The Belly of the Beast’s investigation shares the testimonies of four survivors of the incident, which occurred in Cuban territorial waters and resulted in the deaths of four crew members.

Canadian unions oppose changes to country’s labour code
The Building Canada Strong Act has been tabled in Canada’s House of Commons, alongside other measures aimed at fast-tracking “project approvals,” strengthening trade links and modernising ports. But unions say this could also mean greater state intervention in collective bargaining when negotiations become protracted by including the appointment of a “special mediator” to bring about a resolution to a dispute, including “binding arbitration.”

France to send military to protect Saudi Arabia on Red Sea oil route, Macron says
France will send troops and defence systems to Saudi Arabia to help protect the Red Sea port city of Yanbu, which is key for energy transport, French President Emmanuel Macron said on Thursday. Macron also said a US ban on diesel exports, which the White House has denied is under consideration, would be "catastrophic," both globally and for the US economy.

Rebel offensive against Ethiopian army stokes fears of return to civil war
The TPLF’s vice-president, Amanuel Assefa, told AFP: “We are in the situation of full-blown war now.” He confirmed Tigrayan forces were fighting alongside local armed groups in Afar and Amhara. The group took control of Abala, also on the Tigray-Afar border, on Wednesday, a foreign security source based in Ethiopia told AFP, while a TPLF source said they had seized several other towns in Afar. The foreign security source also said there was fighting around the Amhara town of Weldiya – one of the few routes to the capital.

Indonesia reflags a former Italian warship as its first aircraft carrier
The carrier, which Italy retired in 2024, arrived at the Indonesian seaport last week after a 25-day journey passing through the Suez Canal, the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean. It has the capacity for short takeoff and vertical landing aircraft and helicopters. Unlike major naval powers, Indonesia will use the vessel as a mobile command and support hub for helicopters, drones and maritime operations across the archipelago.

Pakistan-administered Kashmir votes for president amid unrest
Najeeb Naqi Khan, the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) candidate, is expected to win. The party and its allies hold 32 of the 46 occupied seats in the 53-member Legislative Assembly, five more than the 27 votes required. The Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) holds 14. But questions surrounding months of deadly unrest persist, as seven seats remain vacant because two districts at the centre of the protest movement have yet to vote.

Facts about economics, social organization, justice and politics are not obvious. Things change, humans are absolitely impredictable.
There is no physical science that is absolutely true, even mathematics has its blind spots, why should human and social sciences be?
It can move people towards a goal, but is it worth it if not based in something good?

>On September 12th 2001, chaos reigned supreme. Yet, as governments the world over struggled to make sense of the previous day’s catastrophe, and before a motive was established, any perpetrators identified, or other basic facts ascertained, the US Securities and Exchange Commission launched an investigation into potential insider trading by unknown figures with apparently precise foreknowledge of 9/11. The evidence seemed overwhelming. Mainstream reporters openly mocked the implausibility of numerous deeply abnormal stock market trades immediately prior to the attacks being pure coincidence.
>For one, several companies prominently impacted by the event were abruptly ‘shorted’ at inexplicable levels over the preceding weeks. In other words, investors bet certain stocks would perform poorly in the near future, and sought to profit accordingly. Just five days before 9/11 over 2,000 shorts were placed against United Airlines - 90 times more in a single day than over the entirety of August. The company’s share price collapsed following the attacks, turning $180,000 in shorts into $2.4 million.
>Meanwhile, substantial investments were serendipitously made in private security, intelligence and defence firms that benefited enormously from the 9/11 attacks and ensuing ‘War on Terror’. On September 10th, purchase of shares in major US defence contractor Raytheon surged sixfold. Just one week later, as the Pentagon began bulk purchasing Raytheon’s flagship Patriot and Tomahawk missiles in preparation for invading Afghanistan, the firm’s shares rocketed 37%. Other major defence stocks, including Boeing and Lockheed, also experienced abnormal trading pre-9/11.
>Purchase and shorts of dozens of stocks in almost every conceivable industry that one way or another profited, or was harmed, as a result of 9/11 incongruously spiked in the weeks before the fateful day. The evidentiary trail was literally globespanning, with major financial authorities in several Western countries launching their own investigations. Numerous officials in European capitals alleged the trading was definitively indicative of 9/11 foreknowledge, and “terrorists” were responsible.
>For example, commenting on Italian securities regulator CONSOB’s investigation into the suspicious market activity on September 17th 2001, Italian foreign minister Antonio Martino boldly declared “terrorist states and organizations [were] behind speculation on the international markets.” One week later, German central bank president Ernst Welteke asserted his researchers had uncovered “irrefutable proof of insider trading.” He and his team were certain “people connected to the terrorists must have been trying to profit from this tragedy”:
>“You look at the movements in markets before and after the attacks, it really makes your brow furrow…we are confident we will be able to pinpoint the source.”
>Welteke declined to release further information, pending consultation with European and US regulators. However, the 9/11 insider trading scandal quickly faded from public consciousness thereafter. In July 2004, the SEC announced the end of its grand investigation - conducted in conjunction with the Department of Justice and FBI - having “not [developed] any evidence suggesting that anyone who had advance knowledge of the September 11 attacks traded on the basis of that information.” Which, rather than closing the case, begs the obvious question of who did.
>Declassified records of one suspicious pre-9/11 trade probed by the FBI sheds potential light on why US and other authorities may have decided to leave the entire issue alone. From September 6th - 10th 2001, a total of 56,000 Stratesec shares were purchased by a single investor. The company provided security systems to several airports, including Wasington DC’s Dulles from where one of the hijacked planes departed, and the World Trade Center. Its share price almost doubled in the attacks’ wake.
>The shady trades were traced back to Wirt D. Walker III - a distant relative of the Bush family and business partner of Marvin Bush, then-President George W. Bush’s brother. The FBI reportedly uncovered “no ties to terrorism or other negative information” regarding Walker, so didn’t even interview him before concluding his lucrative transactions were innocent happenstance then closing the investigation. Apparently, the evident possibility Walker III possessed foreknowledge of 9/11 via other means than “ties to terrorism” wasn’t worth exploring.
>Still, this sleight of hand granted the Bureau, Department of Justice and SEC an extremely effective “out”. The 9/11 Commission likewise summarily dismissed any suggestion of “unusual pre-9/11 trading activity” on the basis investors involved “had no conceivable ties to Al Qaeda.” Such specious reasoning was sufficient to kill the scandal dead in the mainstream. Nonetheless, ever since numerous peer reviewed academic papers have contrarily concluded insider trading did occur, and was motivated by 9/11 foreknowledge.
>In 2006, University of Illinois professor Allen Poteshman authored a well-cited study focusing on suspicious pre-9/11 trading activity in airline stocks. He concluded this shorting was “unusually high”, and “terrorists or their associates traded…on the basis of foreknowledge of the impending attacks.” Similar findings were reached by a 2011 Multinational Finance Journal paper, which identified highly abnormal market movements in numerous key industries, including insurance and reinsurance stocks directly impacted by 9/11. This was “consistent with insiders anticipating” the attacks.

the money problem
i know you theory-minded suburban adolescents don't want to hear this, but one of the unavoidable prerequisites for any kind of leftist revolutionary effort, or any large scale human endeavor for that matter, is obtaining money. you want to organize a strike or start a union, you need money to pay your friends who are now out of work and starving. you want to start a big protest on the streets, you need money to pay lawyers and bondsmen and hospital bills when your friends inevitably end up in jail or the emergency room. you want to start an armed insurrection and go to war with cops and national guard and maga militias you need enormous amounts of money to pay for weapons and ammunition and vehicles and fuel and radios and burner phones and medical supplies and rations so your friends don't get massacred. you need a lot of money, and the money has to obtained honestly and ethically, otherwise you cease to be a revolutionary movement and you just become a violent capitalist drug/weapon/human trafficking cartel masquerading as a revolutionary movement and the people you're supposed to be fighting for will despise you even more than the regime. and you need to be able to handle the money without becoming emotionally attached to the money, i.e. you need to be willing to part with the money you worked very hard for and throw it into the pool with everyone else's money and cease to think of it as your money after that, it is now everyone's money and it doesn't matter how much your contribution was compared to anyone else's because it's not your money anymore. and trying to abandon the whole concept of money is not the solution, it's an absurdly unrealistic and lazy copout that simply tries to ignore and sidestep what is ultimately the true source of all of our problems, the fundamental flaw of human psychology that got us into this mess to begin with, which is our lack of emotional maturity when it comes to material wealth. there is no getting out from under capitalism without addressing that core problem, there is no clever shortcut that will allow us to skip ahead to the next level of human social evolution without dealing with our greed and our entitlement and our pettiness. if we can't find any reasonable middle ground between getting high on money and rejecting it outright, between capitalism and utopianism, then we've got more immediate and personal problems to deal with before we can start talking about how to refactor the entire world.

What explains the US' recent resurgence?
Was COVID just a plot by the CIA to fuck the global economy or something? Will the trend reverse or are we doomed to live in Burgerworld? It's literally impossible to fight the US, whenever you start threatening them they engineer the global economy in such a way to destroy you.

What does /lgbt/ think of how people on this site use the F-slur?
Im sure you guys have noticed that people on this site do that thing that is just a carry over from 4chan where people call each other "Newf-word," "Oldf-word," "Draw-word," or whatever, (Can straight people type out the F-slur in this context? I'd rather not find out the hard way) I never personally did that shit myself because I have queer friend who DEFINITELY don't think straight people like me should say that shit and even if they won't know my conscience would feel heavy. But I know that queer people are not a monolith and I was wondering what the majority of people here think of it even if I won't use it either way obviously. I can already image 5 different responses,1. Most Lgbtqianons people are okay with it
2. Most are not okay with it but don't bother calling it about because they will be labeled "Idpol"

Despues del partido contra Egipto cualquier tipo de simpatia entre el pueblo que pudiera tener argentina en medio oriente y muchas partes del mundo directamente se evaporó.

The last refuge of the petite-bourgeiose
Do nothing, win? It genuinely does not matter whether they call themselves MLs or MLMs; though the MLMs, by their own logic, tend to break from this more often than MLs. The question is what it is about Marxist-Leninists in the modern world that leaves them mired in inaction, or in vague gestures toward organization. Nearly every American ML or MLM organization has, in essence, denounced the George Floyd uprisings. Not on the surface level, but when you dig thru the layers of their statements, texts, and interviews you observe this. I have read deeply into their positions, they critique the failures, the liberal NGO elements, and so on, but then they also shun the "riots," labeling them adventurism and spontaneity "no different than playing into the fears of the far-right" yet their entire existence, and the name Lenin itself, carries that same charge. Ask them for the alternative and they vaguely say "organize," but look inside and you find that by this they mean a milieu of petty-bourgeois, highly educated intellectuals endlessly discussing theory, liberal activism, and elections. Why should the real working class and its movements interact with these types? Why should we take them seriously when they tell those of us who are suffering not to directly defend ourselves from attackers, not to directly resist the daily misery of capitalism, not to directly expropriate and survive while striving for our freedom? Especially when these people can afford the comfort to happily exist and organize their entire lives away without any revolutionary fervor or action disrupting daily life.

Qatar took the lead among Gulf states in facilitating the meeting between Witkoff and Araghchi, a Gulf official told MEE. Gulf states were pressing for US-Iran talks at the UN in the days before the General Assembly.

The transitional period and implementation of a 2018 peace agreement, which ended a deadly civil war, has been extended several times. The transitional government’s dissolution was envisaged as part of the road map to elections.

South Sudan was still formally part of Sudan until it achieved independence in 2011, prosecutor Edmund Burge told jurors at Southwark Crown Court, meaning the semi-autonomous region was subject to a British arms embargo.

Police use teargas on protesters as disabled woman, 87, evicted from Madrid home
When a developer bought the building Maricarmen had lived in for 71 years, she was offered the chance to buy her apartment for €247,000 (£212,000), an impossible sum for a pensioner. They then raised her rent from €500 to €1,650 a month, while she receives a state pension of €1,350. An unnamed “prominent” writer offered to pay the €1,150 difference indefinitely but their offer was ignored.

Could Berlin expropriate large real estate companies?
Chancellor Friedrich Merz responded to the Left Party's election victory immediately by promising to draw up a federal law banning state governments from expropriating property. "It's not just about banning something here in Berlin," Merz said at a press conference in the aftermath of the Berlin election. "It's about sending a clear message to international investors, which is: There is no expropriation of private property in Germany." However, it's unclear whether the federal government has the power to impose such a law. Germany's Constitutional Court once ruled that the federal government cannot pass a law simply to prevent a state from governing in the issues it wants.

And I watched it when I was a kid and even then I HATED it, I had a friend who also watched DBZ and he hated it too, even we who were just two little dumbass kids could recognize how shit this cartoon was. And dont get me started on Super.
Naruto is just as bad if not worse, they somehow contradict their own message every god damn time, and have a little privileged retarded kid as the main character who was born with le epic god powers, and never works a day in his life to achieve anything, its all just handed to him

JOB SEEKING
did you get a job straight out of university high school training etc? I've been applying for years. Shit sucks. Only have a job after going to a mental hospital and a retard facility. Who's dick did you suck to get your job. I could probably just have laid bricks and shit for 600AUD a day or so. I'd be in better shape and not a fat permanently online retard.

Why bother?
Hating random people with lots of money and reading theory that never sees real world implementation isn't going to make my life less miserable. What's the real solution?
