>Don't worry, US government. This thread is NOT for planning proletarian revolution in the USA, it is just a never ending struggle session for making a small group of Americans on this website apologize for what their government did to the world. If they disagree, that only proves that they are guilty and they want to feel like victims.

The troop who comes to my country and murders and rapes is an HONEST AMERICAN.
The cop who shoots other Americans and kneels on their necks is an HONEST AMERICAN.
The bourgeois American is an HONEST AMERICAN.
The zionist American is an HONEST AMERICAN.
The petty bourgeois American is an HONEST AMERICAN.
The racist American is an HONEST AMERICAN.
The murderous mafioso or gangbanger is an HONEST AMERICAN.

These "leftists"
These "Anarchists
These "Socialists"
These "Communists"
These "Black Panthers"
These "Anti Imperialists"
These "workers"

…These are dishonest Americans. Do-nothing, performative, genocidal Democrat-voting liberals-in-denial who slander communism with their very existence. I hate them far more than I hate honest Americans. They put out their bloodstained hands for a handshake, and when I refuse it they cry for their moderators to ban me for being "politically incorrect" on the "politically incorrect" website.

They hide behind the honest Americans. The honest American will bleed first for his crimes. But you dishonest Americans will bleed last. You will watch it all crumble around you and then you will no longer have honest Americans to protect you from the righteous violence of the proletariat. That is why I hate you even more. And that is why you will be tortured before you are killed.

I regard all Americans as murderous subhuman cockroaches, but the murderous subhuman cockroaches who pretend to be my friend, those are the worst Americans of all. We will bury you. "We have no compassion and we ask no compassion from you. When our turn comes, we shall not make excuses for the terror." Time is running out, dishonest Americans. Soon you will no longer be able to perform "leftism" and you will have to answer to the world for your crimes.

Quick run-down: Unlike previous mass protests in Iran the current ones were caused primarily by crushing economic conditions rather than civil rights, and so they carry undeniable proletarian character and potential. The true scale of the protests is hard to confirm due to conflicting imperialist propaganda, however the staggering death toll in such a short period dwarfs the previous protests.


Recent reports from the streets by Worker-Communist Party of Iran (Hekmatist) translated from Farsi (Jan. 7-13)

>The Iranian people do not need a military attack by American bombers, nor do they need international criminals to intensify sanctions and attack their livelihoods for freedom, prosperity, and equality, to be free from the clutches of the Islamic Republic. Lifting sanctions, preventing a military attack on Iran, and cutting off the hands of international criminals from their lives and struggles is the demand of tens of millions of people in Iran and the demand of their freedom-seeking movement.


>After two weeks of protests in Iran and their spread to various cities, the Islamic Republic has taken extensive measures against the protesting people under the pretext and relying on Mossad’s claims of its interference. The Internet shutdown in Iran, the arrival of the army to confront the protesting people and the loss of a large number of protesters and deprived people, threats to government leaders from the Supreme Leader’s Office to the judiciary and widespread arrests, attacks on hospitals and house-to-house raids, and all-out propaganda by the state media and attributing the protests to the people’s rights to Mossad, introducing every protester as a Mossad spy and their agents, have created serious dangers.


>The Islamic Republic has in common with the fascist governments of Israel and America and their pawns in the opposition, pushing back this movement and blinding its radical and freedom-loving horizon. One is by ordering an “uprising” and turning the protests into street fighting and terrorizing it, and the other is by suppressing them under the pretext of Mossad’s interference and confronting it!


>To Communists: come to the streets to prevent the protests from turning into bloodshed and to ensure their progress!


>Marginal forces whose efforts to ride the wave of protests have failed and do not have the social power to divert mass protests have officially today set the policy of bloodletting in the protests to their agenda by launching mercenary and armed gangs against their opponents, declaring an armed uprising, and prematurely bringing weapons to the field in the protests. These forces, along with the apparatus of repression and the internal gangs of the Islamic Republic, are the ones who are responsible for bloodletting in the protests and the lives of the people.


>The Rajavi sect has issued an order for an armed uprising and the capture of military bases. It is as if the "rebel centers" of the Mujahideen are going to "liberate the cities and then hand them over to the local councils"!


>There is no doubt that this heavily armed regime will ultimately be overthrown in an armed uprising. There is no doubt that the people who rise up and protest have the right to use any means and weapons to defend themselves and defeat the enemy. But sending young people to war prematurely is deliberately taking them to the slaughterhouse and mass protests.


>The movement and uprising of the hungry is going its own way and, independent of the small and large insects of reaction, with vigilance and open eyes, it is organizing, uniting and nationwide its protest and struggle, protecting its activists and leaders, and building its own future. Ensuring this is the work of us communists, the work of radical and freedom-loving activists.


Statement of the Workers’ Councils of Arak: All power to the councils! (Jan. 12)

>“To the workers of Markazi Province, to our comrades in Khuzestan, and to all the people of Iran.”


>For decades, our demands for bread have been answered with bullets, and our demands for dignity with prison. But today, the silence has come to an end. We, the workers of Arak’s factories, declare the following:


>Workplace control: From now on, the management of the Machine Manufacturing Company, AzarAb, and Wagon Pars factories will be in the hands of workers’ councils elected by the workers themselves. We no longer recognize managers appointed by the state or the regime’s puppet unions.


https://cpiran.org/statement-of-the-workers-councils-of-arak-all-power-to-the-councils/

Joint statement of Worker-Communist Parties of Iraq and Kurdistan (Jan. 7)

>The protests come amidst profound political transformations in the region and a clear decline in Iranian influence, which had expanded in recent years through militias and their allies, relying on funds looted from the working class and the welfare of the lranian masses. In the same vein, American imperialism, known for its bullying and unwavering support for fascist regimes, foremost among them the state of lsrael, is attempting to market itself as a defender of human rights and a supporter of the demands of the lranian masses, by brandishing the threat of blatant intervention, as recently occurred in Venezuela the two Communist Workers' Parties in Iraq and Kurdistan, while declaring their full solidarity and support for the just demands of the lranian working class and the masses yearning for freedom and dignity simultaneously warn against relying on American policies or allowing its intervention which plays a role in providing the lranian regime with pretexts to escalate its repression of the protesters.


>Any real change, any tangible improvement, and any victory for the protests in lran depends on maintaining their independence, separating their ranks from American imperialist policies, and preserving their class and popular unity.

>Long live the working class of Iran
>Long live the just demands of the Iranian people for freedom and equality

Right Wing Apathy to Death

I've come to the conclusion that right wingers (especially American ones) are completely indifferent to the idea of them or anyone they care about being killed. You might see them fearmongering about it every time there's a minority in the news for doing something violent, but they react that way any time a minority is in the news for any reason, good or bad. Or on TV at all. Or even just out on the street. It's the fact that they're forced to be reminded that minorities exist at all that is truly making them lash out.

Conversely, when a cishet white person kills someone, even if it's someone they allege to care about, they shrug their shoulders and think nothing of it. White guy shot my husband? Well it wasn't a trans so I don't really care anymore. White guy shooting citizens in their cars without consequence? Whatever, at least I see fewer brown people outside. My own child dies because I didn't get them vaccinated against measles? Well, that was my decision, and I'm white, so who cares? Half my family drowns or starves because the president tricked me into refusing disaster aid? Why should I care, rich white people can do whatever they want! And don't even get me started on their military cuckoldry fixation.

What do you even call this phenomenon? Psychopathy? Extreme NPC Syndrome? It's hard to even believe that people like this are real, let alone such a large percentage of the population.

Rojava is sole remaining socialist force in ME

>muh amerimuttistan support
all rivals of SDF are pro-amerimutt zion-neolib states as HTS or Turgay, war criminals and bandits who hire children in refugee camps and are aligned with NATO. Victory of SDF in Syria is victory for socialism. PKK supports PRC and SWCC, more 'multipolarista' than avg. libtard faggot. Turkey supports uyghur terrorists and thus deserves to be dismantled

PKK and SDF consistently supported Palestinian resistance far more than any of rival factions, this is a null common complaint from Turkish-aligned anti-rojava cockroaches.

>muh kurd ethnostate

AANES recruits many of arab poor and middle class, the councils in raqqa and arab regions are all arab, only a retarded person can believe so. Approximately 65% of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) are Arab troops.

>muh anarkiddies

anarkiddies now support shitkraine and NATO rather than rojava.
What stops you now? Turkish maoists whom fight under SDF think differently from you.

>muh apoist cult

Cult for great revolutionaries such as robiespierre, lenin, makhno(hanged mennonites), stalin, mao zedong is historically progressive.

>muh isis better

isis were overrated bitches smoked in kobani

>muh not really socialist

Led by a vanguard party of PYD, promotes cooperatives and socialization, yet hampered by same problems faced by every socialist government in a backwards country/post-collapse situation with black markets and sanctions, petty propertiers and lack of ability to property concentrate and industrialize, such as oil exports blocked by Turkish pressure. If SDF takes Damascus, it can begin more ambitious programs.

>muh not really anarchist

Transitional State.

>muh incomptent

AANES has highest salaries in region despite being under siege, it is least corrupt of all regions as with testimonies of visitors and buisnessmen, SDF is most competent of all forces, and has won over great non-kurdish masses and earned genuine democratic progress despite adverse condition. SDF and what it have achieved in post-collapse Syria where authority devolves into local communities is a model to note for future revolutionaries and partisans in western world as it spirals into chaos and anarchy. It is model for establishing governance in hostile region controlled by religious fanatics and equivalent of neo-nazis. For creating a party and a counter-state from ground up.


Rojava is under attack by Pro-NATO Jolani technocratic-neoibtard-islamist sludge forces, which threatens to do same to Rojava as the Talibans against Red Afghanistan.

It is the most important liberation struggle there is at the moment. Then use every avenue to salvage it. Iran and Gaza is secondary to signifiance of Rojava. SDF is the sole force in Syria that has consistently prosecuted war crimes and improved living standards of population, and stands between minorities and ISIS, what is occuring in Syria is more brutal and worse than what is going on in Iran and Ukraine, it is thus the priority of highest order.

Revolution in Rojava is socialist, and the SDF is sole force that is competent and capable of bringing any improvement in region. It is under threat by russian saboteur-asslicker Jolani(who delivered zero improvements and sold entire nation to UAE and Turks) and Turkish gray wolves aligned with Azogites. Thus, support SDF.

The Historical Dominance of Reaction

I'm black pilling hard right now guys, fact is that it isnt just Trump. Its Putin, Xi, The fall of the Entire Eastern block. The imprisonment of Maduro. The fall of Argentina to Mile. The genocide of Gaza and and the total impotence of the Israeli left. The 9000 lives of US hydras in Syria, where whoever wins, the USA is always one of them! The death of Rojava. Iran (just like Iran generally). The left is systemically spasmodic and I think it might be nothing more than the tremors one experiences at death. I cant help but feel that the left has failed utterly and is dead.

Political Conversions

Have there been any studies done deconstructing the left-to-right ("Saul-to-Paul") political conversion narrative that the right-wing loves to throw around?

I'm talking about people like former CPUSA members who turned state like Whittaker Chambers, Bella Dodd, and Louis Budenz; neocons like Irving Kristol, Norman Podhoretz, and David Horowitz (rest in piss); or contemporary "conversion" stories like those of Abby Johnson. I'm obviously talking about Americans here but I'm sure you can name plenty of examples from other countries. What psychological factors cause someone to abandon leftism and fully embrace the right, and even worse, turn on their former comrades?

Is it simply the case that they upheld leftism as a dogma, so when their "god" died they found another god? Is it because they were always authoritarian assholes and embraced the right when the right gave them a better outlet for being authoritarian assholes? Was it because they found that the left was moving in a direction they didn't approve of, so they gradually became rightist? Or, using the narrative they themselves most often parrot, they felt "betrayed" by the left so in turn they betrayed the left?

Also, why do we rarely see any prominent right-wingers turning to the left?

Why is Europe so servile?

I as an American always understood that the reason was that in exchange for being social democracies they can basically just be giant banks for the US to store its plunder that it gets for fucking over the 3rd world. But recently Trump has been trying to take Greenland and give up Ukraine and basically Vassalize the rest of Europe, and I have no idea why the leaders are still okay with this and why they wont do anything other than say "Pwease no tag Gweenland 👉👈 🥺" like Trump wont do that domestically when Tim Walz asks him not to deploy ICE, so its not a far stretch that he wont invade Greenland. Why are these European leaders so cucked? Even Belarus which brags about not being sucked to America is cucked to Russia at the end of the day.

On "Democracy" Vs. "Resistance"

There is an unspoken agreement between US and Iran to maintain the delicate balance of power in the region.

Losing Islamist Iran period means losing Iraq to a power vacuum.

Losing Islamist Iran to communists is doomsday scenario for capitalists, the resource rich region is filled with unpopular regimes and immiserated workers. Iran and Iraq (the most susceptible for revolution) alone make up a quarter of the world oil supply. The stakes are too high to allow an unpredictable mass movement (that cannot be entirely controlled) to overthrow the regime.

Iran poses zero threat to western imperialism, in fact in places like Iraq and Lebanon it is the lever that is maintaining it. Decades of wheeling and dealing through backchannels have exposed this myth for what it is - a false dichotomy that sets the ideological framework for US and Iranian imperialism in the region, so-called "Axis of Resistance" and "Forces of Order"

Does this mean they're in agreement on everything and Iran is secretly run by da juice? Of course not, that's conspiratorial and Kautskyist nonsense. They're united in so far as their class interests meet, mostly in suppressing workers and maintaining the status quo.

Will this last forever? No, eventually a war will break out due to capital's growing contradictions and the need to counter overproduction through destruction. The region and the world broadly have yet to fall into designated camps for such event to happen, that will spark the a third global imperialist war.

Don't fall into this false dichotomy, or prepare to be disappointed. Learn from the communist parties in the region who have reached this conclusion.

No war but class war

Why do revisionists and infantiles get so hung up on concentric construction? It's a practical way of understanding people's war. The party should not be separated from its organs and the people, it needs to be part of each of them in order to understand them. Letting the army be controlled by non-party members is a bad idea. The PLA needs to be working within the mass orgs and the people as well, in order to formulate strategy. The mass orgs are how the party and organisation diffuse into the people. You need to think of the whole of revolutionary society as a single whole in order to properly understand its contradictions.

Did Gorbachev cause the fall of the USSR?

Did Gorbachev cause the fall of the USSR?
I live in the United States and we were always taught that he did but it was somehow a good thing. I understand that Gorbachev wasn't the one who collapsed it and that it was Yeltsin who did, Gorbachev's reforms just caused it to happen because it caused so much nationalist sentiment to brew up, but I still think he is somewhat responsible. It was reckless and stupid to abandon Marxism-Leninism for Social Democracy and it was also reckless to let the eastern bloc have elections knowing that the CIA would mess with them which they did. I understand that stagnation was a problem but he should of listened to Deng's advice rather than allow so much nationalist sentiment to brew up and illegally dismantle your country, I understand that the USSR kind of sucked domestically but foreign-policy wise it was the most moral superpower to ever exist, and the bar is very low.

Singapore is an economical and social miracle undoubtedly, low rate of corruption, high rate of employment, FDI, Income and quality of life in general.
All this achieved through a strict neoliberal economy, Lee Yew is practically worshipped by Neoliberal for not only his policies but also for his Anti-communist operations.

The mass grooming of young men into nazism on the sharty and imageboards

Imageboards have of course been filled with nazis for a fuck ton of time from even the start, but most people agree it mainly started when moot added /news/ then all the chudcels flooded the rest of the site, then created /pol/ and the rest is history.

With that being said, how do we realistically combat the mass grooming of people into nazism through imageboards? The sharty is becoming the new 8chan but with way more cultural influence on the wider internet and the rest of the population is filled with young children, we have already seen solomon (a mass shooter that was a black man yet he was also a white supremacist with sharty connections) commit a mass shooting. With that being said clearly a lot of these young men are isolated and angry, doxxing random literal WHOS because they are trans, or even doing raids that help the federal government because the site is influenced by glowies. They even raided our very booru 2 days ago, and ILLEGAL CONTENT was posted (this was done by foodist nazis not soyteens but still scary that it’s that prevalent with their raids).

And with the thought on raids we can see some of these young people are being groomed into actual pedophile nazi communities but the sharty staff and wiki are so up their asses that they can’t see they have ideological similarities with the nazi foodists and that’s why they surround them.

They have crushed /leftysoy/ and banned many leftists on their wiki including me, I think this is gonna evolve into something much worst if we don’t do anything.

/Cooperatives/ General #1

>To my mind, the so-called “socialist society” is not anything immutable. Like all other social formations, it should be conceived in a state of constant flux and change. Its crucial difference from the present order consists naturally in production organized on the basis of common ownership by the nation of all means of production. To begin this reorganization tomorrow, but performing it gradually, seems to me quite feasible. That our workers are capable of it is borne out by their many producer and consumer cooperatives which, whenever they're not deliberately ruined by the police, are equally well and far more honestly run than the bourgeois stock companies.

I understand there are critiques of cooperatives, and how they are not enough to bring about proletarian revolution.

I am genuinely worried about the current state of the America. They are trying to take all neighboring countries and former territories like Canada, Greenland and the Panama Canal, then remove remove all cold-war-era independent countries like Cuba and Iran, Then completely Vassalize the rest of Europe and NATO and turn them all into giant Kosovos. The goal here is to starve China until it collapses and then America can usher in a Techno-Fuedelist-Fascist world order.

Among ancient Greek states, was Sparta alone in resembling protocommunism?

Support
> Collective land ownership through state-assigned kleroi (allotments) worked by helots.
> Mandatory communal meals (syssitia) for all citizens, funded by individual contributions.
> State-enforced austerity and discouragement of private wealth and luxury.
> Public upbringing (agoge) for all male citizens from age 7, minimizing family unit primacy.
> Citizens referred to as "peers" or "equals" (homoioi), ideologically downplaying class distinction.
> State-controlled education and lifestyle, subordinating individual choice to collective needs.
> Iron currency to discourage trade and accumulation of private portable wealth.
> Military service as the primary citizen vocation, not private farming or trade.
> Redistribution of land
> Theoretical common ownership of helots (state slaves) as a productive resource.
> Strong social pressure toward conformity and equality in daily life among citizens.
Against
< System based on a hereditary elite (Spartiates) dominating a enslaved majority (helots).
< Wealth disparities existed and grew among Spartiates despite official austerity.
< Helot system was chattel slavery
< Individual families still held significant social and hereditary importance.

Was Sparta uniquely the closest to protocommunism in ancient Greece?

No matter what i do, ill never be happy with my body.

If i dont take hrt, ill hit twink death and end up with a disgusting old masculinized body. If i do take hrt, ill end up with shrunken balls and a weird fucked up dick.
Either way, ill still be stuck in a body im extremely uncomfortable in.

How exactly do we successfully fight against and reverse Gen Alpha brainrot?

https://youtube.com/shorts/h2i3cGyzNKo

This stuff is becoming alarming. When I was a little kid in the 90s I would watch stuff that had actual substance to it (think: Disney renaissance, Don Bluth films, TV shows like Arthur). Plus our parents made an effort to read to us and get us looking at science books and history books for kids. When I babysit my neighbours’ kids who are eight and six (both boys) I’m horrified by how stupid they are. They can’t read at all. They can’t play musical instruments. They don’t do arts and crafts. They have the vocabularies of preschool-aged kids. They can’t do math and the eight-year old asks me to do his math homework for him. Both of them are either glued to their iPads or glued to watching YouTube on TV. It’s sad as hell. What do?

Since we're the scapegoats, I'd like to know just how bad it is.
1. How often do people wish death on you because you're trans?
2. How often do you see people wish death on someone because they're trans?
3. Since when did things get this bad?
4. How much does this offend you?

My answers:
1. Once a month
2. Every day
3. Since 2020/2019
4. It’s very cruel, but you get used to it. At any rate, I hope that justice will come, and that transphobes will be met with the same cruelty and grief that they have inflicted on us.

Wtf is dialectical materialism ?

I keep hearing the word being thrown around a lot but I don't really grasp at what it is really. I also don't really understand how it fits with marxism.

From my understanding, it essentially amounts to :
>matter determines everything
>material structures create opposing forces/conflict
>the resolution of the conflict makes history progress

So, I understand that the conflicts created by capitalism generate socialism. But is that actually necessary ? And does the dialectic boil down to a logical tool for analysis ? I don't know I've read the capital and the manifesto and the terms don't really appear (albeit the broad structure is there ig), yet everyone always talks about it.
And lastly, book rec ? I'm not trying to find something super lengthy, just enough to understand the concept in a clear way (what it serves, how it works precisely etc)

I am currently in search of a new online home. Having experimented with numerous platforms over the past two years, I was captivated by X for a long time. However, I believe I have now discovered something superior: Substack.
​In truth, I appreciate X for its seamless integration of text, video, and imagery, not to mention its unparalleled diversity of perspectives. Yet, my main grievance with X is the brevity of its text content. This is precisely why I am exploring Substack; it captures the best elements of X but offers the space for more long-form writing.
​The platforms are relatively similar in terms of free speech, but Substack prioritizes high-quality 'effortposts.' You can publish in-depth articles or share shorter, tweet-like updates called 'Notes.' I wasn't aware of how much Substack had transformed!

Class consciousness General

I've been thinking of creating a thread to help develop ways of communicating general theory to just normal people irl.

A lot of people on the internet are usually doomers that think "the modern prole is brainwashed he'll never achieve class. Consciouaness!", but that is not true. I've meet self-proclaimed conservatives agree with many fundamentals of socialism while not even knowing what the word means.

I think all you have to do is be reasonably respected, use understandable terms, and most importantly, use solid IRL examples they see everyday in their life for reference, because its literally undeniable at that point if they see the exploitation in their own lives.

For example to explain the unnecessary nature of capitalism/consumerism use this:
"Isn't it crazy how there's factories still producing X in the modern day? Imagine how much better the world would be if those factories went towards literally anything useful for society like housing, food, etc".
Or for something like surplus value use this:
"If you think about it, corporate profit is literally just theft. If i produce a X for my company i get payed 20 dollars, but my boss gets a profit of 100 dollars, that means he's taking 80% of my hard earned cash without contributing at all to it, thats literally his only job".

This is what Marx himself said about the difficulty of Capital. People demand that everything be immediately understandable and approachable. Marx talks about communism enabling an all sided development of the individual. Modern marxists find reading too difficult for them and will not do anything to rectify this.

My impression is that people want Marx to say something else, to confirm their own biases. This leads to "muh dialectical contradiction!" and Marx (and everyone else) suddenly becomes an incoherent schizophrenic, who needs to be explained by other morons. It doesn't help that leftist spaces are dominated by children online, college students and petty bourgeois weirdos who all demonstrably put forth their own middle class interests and everyone is just too lazy and stupid to read Marx and Lenin, their way of reading Marx being the exact same way that creationists will read Darwin. Not understanding the argument, not understanding the year or the context. The fact that Mao is considered easier to read than Marx even though he's nothing but retarded bourgeois platitudes and incoherent philosophical gibberish, just reveals their own class position and what they actually want to say.

The Palestine movement failed miserably to stop the genocide because the movement is largely one of SYMBOLIC politics, not one of instrumental politics. It’s not about the Palestinian people but about angry western youth letting off steam. This exact BDS movement has become about self-righteous zoomers showing off how “virtuous” they are by boycotting Starbucks and Coke, never mind that boycotts are supposed to be a militant tactic and weapon to attack an enemy head-on. The campus protests from 2024 were also aimless and did nothing except get a bunch of students and professional activists arrested. Makes sense that NYU banned criticism of Zionism right afterwards.

Let this be known for the next time the world is thrown into a state of crisis.

UFO SIGHTING IN RHODESIA, BULAWAYO

“On December 29, 1953, an unidentified flying object was spotted in the sky over the city of Bulawayo, Southern Rhodesia. Renowned photographer Barney Wayne took a photograph of the sighting.” In this intriguing cityscape, the UFO hovers above the Rebellion Memorial in Main Street, Bulawayo, which was constructed in 1900 and the Gardner Gun placed atop in 1906 and removed in 1979.
Barney Wayne, the director of a photographic studio, snapped this saucer-shaped UFO in Bulawayo, South Rhodesia, on December 29, 1953. The photograph was featured in France's weekly magazine 'Moustique' #1508 on December 19, 1954, gracing page 15.

Minimum Possible Socialism

I'm looking for some really lame super pragmatic minimal market socialism for the sake of giving imagination-gap terminally reform-brained normies a concrete thing they can work with.

Specifically I was looking for something which while maintaining distributed capital markets also gets rid of rewards for nonproductive actors. I didn't exactly find this, but I did find Roerner's Equal Shares proposal this follows:

>Every adult citizen would receive from the state treasury an equal endowment of coupons, that can be used only to purchase shares of mutual funds. Only coupons can be used to purchase shares of mutual funds, not money. Only mutual funds can purchase shares of public firms, using coupons. Prices of corporate shares and mutual funds are, hence, denominated in coupons; they will oscillate depending on the supply and demand for shares. Citizens are free to sell their mutual-fund shares for coupons, and to reinvest the coupons in other mutual funds. Finally, firms may exchange coupons with the state treasury for investment funds, and may purchase coupons from the treasury with money. This is the only point at which coupons exchange for money. These investment funds play the role of equity in the firm. (p. 20)


>A share of a firm entitles the owning mutual fund to a share of the firm's profits, and a share of a mutual fund entitles the owning citizen to a share of the mutual fund's revenues. When a citizen dies, his mutual fund shares must be sold and the coupon revenues are returned to the state treasury. The treasury in turn issues coupon endowments to citizens reaching the age of majority. (p. 20)


Anyway this proposal seemed to get reasonably close to what I was "looking for". I'm still not sure however if it's productive to advertise this sort of thing to others. Is it a useful strategy to build these sort of concrete programs. Further about this plan in particular is it really what anyone is after? Is there an effective even more reform minded solution that still removes rewards for unproductive actors - or at least as this one does makes such rewards equal?

Why are right wing groups so effective at convincing the general public that they're actually left wing? I'd argue they're even better at it than left wing groups are.

Cockshott is probably the best Socialist theorist of our age

he's completely BTFO'ed all arguments against Marx's Law of Value, he's empirically proven that Economic Planning is 100% possible with current data sets and modern computation, he's shown that current economic theory is based on complete woo that doesn't hold up to basic mathematical scrutiny or even basic logic.
The thing is, because all his online content is extremely complex, technical post-grad level university lectures, it's hard to get his idea's out there. Which I think why as Socialists, we should try present his arguments, theories and evidence in a far more presentable, digestable, ELI5 fashion for Normies.
What made classic Leftypol good is that we were able to present Socialist content for normies that would be shared by Zoomers and such. So I think a good project for us on this board, would be to work How the World Works (https://libgen.rocks/ads.php?md5=0f775aef8cbe24a8978e115669bfcdfb) into a decent Youtube series that explains how we can build a new economic order in the not too distant future.

Marxism and Freud

I've noticed that a lot of orthodox Marxists are also obsessed with Freud and are convinced that Freudian psychoanalysis is essential for combating fascism, and I don't understand why. Can someone explain the connection?

Epstein = Israel, and Trump loves Israel

Epstein is connected to Israel, this is why Trump is covering it up. He doesn't want to risk the political fallout for Israel when people realize all of Epstein's clients were blackmailed and used as Israeli assets.

"The most concrete link is his relationship with former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak. Epstein and Barak met numerous times between 2013 and 2017, with Barak visiting Epstein’s properties in Florida and New York approximately 30 times, including a 2014 private flight in Florida. Barak received $2.3 million from an Epstein-associated foundation between 2004 and 2006, and Epstein invested $1 million in a limited partnership established by Barak in 2015.

Another connection stems from Epstein’s ties to Ghislaine Maxwell, whose father, Robert Maxwell, was a British media mogul alleged to have had links to the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad. Some sources, including former Israeli intelligence officer Ari Ben-Menashe, have claimed Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell ran a “honey-trap” operation for Mossad to blackmail influential figures. A lawsuit by a woman identified as Jane Doe 200 alleged Epstein boasted of being a Mossad agent.

Epstein was also associated with the Wexner Foundation, which supports Jewish leadership and has ties to Israel. His financial backer, Leslie Wexner, was a member of the “Mega Group,” a collection of Jewish philanthropists, which some, like former NSA counterspy John Schindler, have speculated was linked to Israeli intelligence operations. Epstein reportedly invested in an Israeli startup, Reporty Homeland Security (later rebranded as Carbyne), connected to Israel’s defense industry, further fueling speculation."

International oil companies push for quick reforms in Venezuela to give them control over oil exports
To get things moving, representatives of international oil companies are seeking a few modifications to the existing legal framework for the industry that would leave state-run oil giant PDVSA as the majority stakeholder of all oil joint ventures, but would grant foreign partners control of their share of production and give them access to the company's oil terminals and export infrastructure to facilitate shipments.

FAA urges pilots to exercise caution over eastern Pacific, citing ‘military activities’
The Federal Aviation Administration on Friday urged U.S. aircraft operators to “exercise caution” when flying over the eastern Pacific Ocean near Mexico, Central America and parts of South America, citing “military activities” and possible satellite navigation interference. The warning was issued in a series of Notices to Airmen (NOTAMs) issued by the FAA. They say, “Potential risks exist for aircraft at all altitudes, including during overflight and the arrival and departure phases of flight.” The alerts are in effect for 60 days. Such notices are issued routinely in any region where there are hostilities nearby.

Granscianism is the most recent "update" to Marxism after Leninism. It explains we can't have revolutions in developed capitalist states, and says that we need to form a proletarian counterculture to challenge the prevailing capitalist common sense (war of position), before trying to directly cease power (war of maneuver).
Marxist-Leninists (stalinists) are too dumb to understand this.

sooo, what are your thoughts on Gramsci?

Been meaning to read Gramsci's work for a while now. Though, I'm not sure where should I start reading, neither if it's worth it truly; some companions have warned me he tends to suffer the biases more proper from a "petit bourgeois", arguing he avoids core problems as class conflict, however idk how much of this is accurate, tbh.
