Internationalist Voice (Iranian) analysis of the protests (Jan. 4-19):

>Leftists and the Mujahedin claim that monarchists are attempting to influence the protests in favour of “Reza Pahlavi”[7] by adding audio to video clips, or that this role is being played by the Islamic bourgeoisie itself, which is confident in the harmlessness of the monarchist opposition. In other words, they argue that the promotion of monarchist demands within the protests is either meaningless or marginal. This claim is partly correct, but it does not capture the full reality.


>First and foremost, it should be emphasised that the nature of a movement determines the extent to which it can be exploited or redirected. In an independent workers’ movement, this possibility is considerably low; however, in an “all-together” movement, the scope for reactionary forces to intervene is much greater. Within this framework, a serious question arises: can the statement issued by students at Isfahan University, in which it was asserted that “the 1979 revolution was a historical mistake,” be regarded merely as the result of external manipulation and interference?


>For leftists who, through demagoguery, consider students to be “working-class students,” it is as if students necessarily advance the demands of the working class in every protest. In reality, however, students are not inherently revolutionary; at times, they can play a counter-revolutionary role, and at other times, depending on objective conditions and their connection to the class struggle, they can assume a revolutionary role. To clarify this issue, two specific examples can be cited.


>The student protests of July 1999 arose in response to the closure of the reformist[8] newspaper Salam. These protests served the interests of the reformist faction of the Islamic bourgeoisie, and students became instruments in intra-governmental struggles. Nevertheless, the movement exacted a heavy toll, leaving many dead and injured, and profoundly altered the fate of some of the students.


>In contrast, in autumn 2018, following the widespread workers’ protests, students openly expressed solidarity with the workers’ struggles and placed class demands at the centre of their slogans. By chanting slogans such as “We are the children of workers; we stand with them,” they effectively became integrated into a segment of the workers’ class movement and played a role distinct from that of previous periods.


>When the working class emerges as an independent social class in the course of societal developments, the scope for manoeuvre of not only the right- and left-wing tendencies of capital but also ultra-reactionary bourgeois forces and adventurist elements is sharply reduced. This is because the independent presence of the proletariat exposes the real contradictions of capitalism and prevents protests from being redefined and co-opted within bourgeois, pro-democracy, or imperialist frameworks.


>A clear example of this situation can be seen in the workers’ protests of autumn 2018, a period during which media outlets such as the BBC, Voice of America, Radio Israel, and other bourgeois propaganda instruments were effectively sidelined and lost the ability to influence the protests. Under such conditions, bourgeois tendencies—particularly the hypocritical and liberal tendencies of the Western bourgeoisie—were compelled to be silenced, as the language, perspective, and demands of these protests could not serve their class interests.


>The shameful Islamic bourgeoisie has plunged into one of the deepest crises in its disgraceful history, and consolidating itself is not so easy. To demonstrate its power and to pretend it has a social base, the Islamic bourgeoisie issued a call for marches in all cities on 11 January. This call was an overt attempt to stir public sentiment and to draw people into a government-organised demonstration.


>On 11 January 2026, the state broadcaster aired a report from the Kahrizak forensic centre showing scenes of corpses in a large warehouse. The Islamic bourgeoisie claimed that these bodies belonged to individuals who had been harmed by “rioters” during the protests, but the main purpose was to stir public sentiment and garner support for the government. The report displayed photographs of the corpses and the names of the deceased on a screen, while grieving families were mourning and identifying their loved ones. Interestingly, these same images are circulated by Western media as victims of the Islamic bourgeoisie’s crimes. The state broadcaster also aired footage of government-supporting demonstrations, particularly in the cities of Ilam and Hamedan—areas where protests against the regime had been more widespread than elsewhere.


>The war between Iran and Israel is not the result of decisions made by warmongering leaders but it is the expression of the capitalist system today. Regardless of the political façade a state adopts—be it democratic or dictatorial, peace-seeking or openly militaristic—they all share one fundamental trait: sacrificing the working class as cannon fodder in imperialist wars. Without exception, they are all war criminals.

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.

Every accusation is a confession

I find it especially ironic that Islamists, who claim to be reactionaries yet are nothing but impotent conservatives: the loyal servants of of capital, have exacerbated the social ills of bourgeois society which they claimed to oppose.

Islamists in my country used to attack communists for "promoting prostitution" and the "community of women" (women owned in common) this was refuted by Marx as early as the Manifesto who pointed to the hypocrisy of this accusation, nevertheless what happened once Islamists captured power with the backing of multinational capital and the petty bourgeoisie? Public prostitution became prevalent and organized, an underground industry run by this new bourgeoisie. Religious cities became brothels that people cross oceans for, with the blessings of God and law - prostitution became holy "temporary" marriage, a market fueled by endless victims of poverty, austerity and war.

As for private prostitution (marriage) civil marriage was de facto abolished and with it any concessions offered to the woman, communists used to rally against the payment offered to the woman's family to consummate the marriage arguing that it is a form of commodification, this has now became the standard practice, cementing the woman's role as a commodity first, prompting her to rot until she is inevitably sold rather than take her own path in life.

The separation of genders have twisted the view of women to be mere objects of sexual gratification rather than real conscious beings. This view twisted further by pornagrahy; the consumption rates of which is amongst the highest in the world despite being banned and labelled taboo. Naturally the rates of harassment and rape have also increased despite bullying women into suppressing their every feminine character.

I suppose eventually it became convenient to lift any ostensible restrictions around this commodity, and so the age of marriage was lowered to 9 in order to save them from degeneracy of celibacy.

Now believe me when I say I don't shutter at the 'immorality and injustice' of any of this for the commodification of women and children is entirely within the logic of capitalism, in this extreme case it has only been elevated into a more public form under the guise of God, the only way to abolish it remains to be by abolishing all class distinctions.

The point of this post is more so to point to the hypocrisy of conservatives who purport to oppose the prevailing social order while all they do is enforce it over the bodies of workers, this is not to speak of the drug trade, crippling economic inequality, privatization, etc all have flourished under these religious charlatans.

Unlimited Ammo and Unbreaking Gun - A Soldier's Wet Dream

Unlimited Ammo and Unbreaking Gun - A Soldier's Wet Dream
A speculation on how such design and military technology can be achieved.

First of all I want to start this awesome thread by stating the obvious, all things are finite, but so are we, a soldier only has to have enough ammo to last his own lifetime or the time of the insurgency / war he is in. The logistical problem comes with the inability to carry or even possess such large quantities of ammunition. The obvious solution to this would be to try and utilize the environment as ammunition, but in handiwork this has only resulted in primitive and disadvantaged creations such as bows and arrows which are long due in the history of war.
So we must make a weapon that can be carried which can turn common parts of the environment into projectiles.
That would of course require a lot of energy that has to come from somewhere. All ammunition in guns for the most part carries its own charge in the form of gunpowder. So we would have to replicate the same reaction via some other method to occur entirely within the weapon itself and not the ammunition projectiles being fired.
This means we have to research on a way to create a chemical reaction out of the common environment that can easily be instigated and replicated to act as the charge for the necessary explosive reaction for projectiles to be fired.

With that I begin the first opening question: How can we do it?
You figure it out. I will try to figure it out on my own. I will share my findings with only likeminded people.

Now for the latter part of the title: Unbreaking Gun
I can safely say we have practically found the solution to that. Much of the old military equipment and commodities produced within the USSR have been designed to last a long time. Many guns from even WW2 are still in circulation and being utilized in wars throughout the world. We can study and copy the successful of said gun designs and even if imperfect (like everything in life), the design can at least be made optimal for repairments on the go.

I will end this opening with a third part: Portability.
It is of my opinion, that such a weapon to be created as imagined here would have to be easily carriable and portable akin to the MP5. But early designs would likely have to start large and become gradually smaller. Just like the computer, which was originally as large as a room and has evolved to many things ranging from a smart watch to a smart fridge and beyond. Ideal standard issued weapons would be as portable as the MP5.

Lastly to address the obvious -
>Doesn't this belong to >>>/AKM/ ?
Yes it does, but that's a dead board, and my thread needs to receive at least some traction before it is buried there. Nobody will bother looking at it if its posted there, outside of trashy /overboard/ users who are morons. So I post it here for more to see and engage with before the horrid mods decide to bury it to live out their power fantasies of clicking a button to move one picture on their screen to another location.

The Libertarian Question

Libertarians come in many flavors. Even Charlie Kirk called himself a libertarian once. Most of them are irredeemable, craving to oppress women & minorities - terrible people, who ALWAYS slide towards fascism.

However, there's a smaller subset of them who value freedom above everything else and despise surveillance. Are we their closest ally? Because libertarians on the right just cling to Palantir, Israel and horrific child abusers. How do we integrate them? What should be done to integrate them?

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?

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?

Chomsky-Epstein connection

Can we talk about the new revelations about Noam Chomsky and Jeffrey Epstein?

>The prominent linguist and philosopher Noam Chomsky called it a “most valuable experience” to have maintained “regular contact” with Jeffrey Epstein, who by then had long been convicted of soliciting prostitution from a minor, according to emails released earlier in November by US lawmakers.


>Such comments from Chomsky, or attributed to him, suggest his association with Epstein – who officials concluded killed himself in jail in 2019 while awaiting trial on federal sex-trafficking charges – went deeper than the occasional political and academic discussions the former had previously claimed to have with the latter.


>Chomsky, 96, had also reportedly acknowledged receiving about $270,000 from an account linked to Epstein while sorting the disbursement of common funds relating to the first of his two marriages, though the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) professor has insisted not “one penny” came directly from the infamous financier.


>The emails disclosed on 12 November by the Republican members of the US House oversight committee generally detailed the correspondence Epstein had with political, academic and business luminaries, including the Bill Clinton White House’s treasury secretary Larry Summers and Steve Bannon, the longtime ally of Donald Trump. Further, they reveal Epstein and Chomsky were close enough to discuss musical interests and even potential vacations.


>Perhaps the most telling of the Chomsky-related documents in question was a letter of support for Epstein attributed to Chomsky with the salutation “to whom it may concern”. It is not dated, but it contains a typed signature with Chomsky’s name and citing his position as a University of Arizona laureate professor, a role he began in 2017, as first reported by the Massachusetts news outlet WBUR.


https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/nov/22/noam-chomsky-jeffrey-epstein-ties-emails

A couple of things:

1. How could any principled anarchist be friends with a billionaire?

2. I get that Chomsky radicalized a lot of American Gen Xers and Millennials. Anarchists in the 90s and 2000s looked up to him as a god-man of sorts. He wrote many books that have become classics among the Gen X and Millennial American left. But how will this stain his reputation? Will he be cancelled? His books burned or thrown in the trash?

3. Is this a case of "live long enough to be the villain" or was Chomsky always sus?

4. How do you think Michael Parenti and Slavoj Zizek are taking this news?

Epstein & The Alt-Right as a Psyop

the most recent Epstein file drop potentially implicating the creation of /pol/ with moot meeting with Epstein feels like it needs to have its own thread. it's pretty much an accepted fact at this point that Epstein played a key role in what seems to be a massive secret human trafficking ring that exists as a form of Mutually Assured Destruction to for the elites to maintain power, but what is currently a lesser-known and recent revelation is that circumstantial evidence indicating that the entire formation of the far-right was an astroturfing psyop by pedophile billionaires and the intelligence community.

in particular, this thread >>>/lgbt/3094 links even more damning evidence that the astroturfing of far-right politics has been intentionally perpetrated as a psyop to ensure that the Molochian demons in power have access to as many children to rape as possible. pedocon theory is not a meme at this point or even merely an own on the hypocrisy of the far-right; it arguably is a significant factor behind the existence of the far-right today.

while it's bordering on LARP to act like anything serious happens on this site, broadly speaking "the left" and especially leftists familiar with imageboard culture & history should be investigating and agitating more specifically on this matter. the purpose of this thread is to consolidate information on this and to crowdsource more investigative work in the Epstein files specifically on the issue of astroturfing the creation of the alt-right. if you are involved in any real life organizing of any kind you should be spreading this information far and wide for agitprop purposes.

the masses needs to know that there is no civil debate to be had with the right, nor is there even any particularly sophisticated leap in theory and critique one needs to make; the far-right is simply ontologically evil and we should be agitating on them all being controlled by human traffickers as hard as possible.
R: 33 / I: 5
There's no such thing as "left," or "right." There are only those that seek to perpetuate oppressive power structures, and those that seek to dismantle them. And it is only within that set of people who believe in liberty that genuine difference of opinion and debate can exist. That is to say, once one rejects hierarchy, the only meaningful discussion to be had is whether to scrap the tools of cruelty our oppressors wield against us, or provide them to all. Whether to abolish barbarism, or to liberalize it.

Materialist analysis of celebrities engaging in activism?

Recently, we’ve seen notable celebrities like Billie Eilish and Olivia Rodrigo speak out against Trump and ICE. Their social media profiles are full of anti-ICE sentiment. Billie has also spoken out against billionaires despite being rich herself. So what’s going on here? Is there any chance that celebrities like Billie and Olivia can hold radical leftist political views? A lot of celebrities and musicians were involved in the 60s New Left, by comparison. Are we seeing a rebirth of this?

A dictatorship of the proleteriat will never work because a system where the proleteriat has no say and doesnt choose their own leader will result in the government of a socialist country not actually being beholden to the proleteriat at all.

Against Free Will

I was told by someone on here that in order to be a Communist, I must "believe" in "Free Will." Somehow, I doubt this is truly a prerequisite, but if it really is the case, then so be it.

Before getting into "Free Will," there is no good evidence that human beings possess an immaterial “soul” that thinks, chooses, or survives bodily death. All available evidence indicates that what we have hitherto called a “person,” is an activity of a living brain in a living body. Mental states reliably track brain states; damage the brain and you damage memory, personality, judgment, and agency; destroy it entirely and the person disappears. No additional essence remains.

Human brains are biological systems governed by physical law. They are extraordinarily complex, adaptive, and self-modeling, which produces the powerful subjective experience and outward appearnce of "authorship" and "choice," but nothing in neuroscience suggests that brains initiate actions independently of prior physical causes. Also, introducing indeterminism or randomness does not rescue “free will” in the libertarian sense, since randomness adds noise, rather than control.

The popular notion of "Free Will" as an uncaused, self-originating power of the "soul" or of the brain, in more secular accounts of "Free Will," is therefore unsupported. What exists instead are constrained decision-making processes embedded in biology, development, and environment. Responsibility is not metaphysical; it is a social practice invented and enforced by humans to shape behavior while brains are still alive and responsive to incentives.

There is no evidence that accountability survives death. When the brain permanently ceases to function, the person is gone. What remains is matter, not an observing subject.

These conclusions are not radical inventions of modern science. The dependence of mind on the condition of the brain has been observable since antiquity through injury, disease, and degeneration, and has been progressively clarified by advances in biology, chemistry, and physics. What is new is not the insight itself, but the precision.

Resistance to these conclusions is understandable. They undermine comforting narratives of cosmic justice, personal exceptionality, and ultimate moral reckoning. Many cultures have developed religious and metaphysical systems that posit souls, absolute free will, and post-mortem reward or punishment. Whatever other functions these systems serve, they also operate as tools of behavioral regulation, offering meaning and order in exchange for compliance.

None of this "proves" that such metaphysical entities "cannot" exist, it merely establishes that we have no reason to believe they do, and that our best explanations of human behavior, morality, and identity do not require them. Nevertheless, those who make positive claims must provide evidence. If I propose ridiculous things without providing evidence, others are not obliged to "disprove" my claims, especially if they cannot be tested and/or concern alleged entities which exist beyond measurable matter and energy.

The so-called “third-worldist” strain of communism is a perfect illustration of how an ideology can cosplay as Marxism while violating its most basic analytical foundations. Marxism is not a moral sympathy project for whoever looks poorest on a map; it is a materialist framework rooted in relations of production, class antagonism, and the concrete development of capitalism. Third-worldism replaces this with a crude geopolitics of vibes, where entire populations are flattened into revolutionary subjects simply because they exist outside the imperial core. This is not scientific socialism—it is aesthetic anti-imperialism dressed up in red slogans.
What makes this intellectual laziness especially useful is how neatly it dovetails with the American ruling class’s real interest: keeping Americans from developing class consciousness. The recent Epstein file circus is a perfect case study. Instead of directing attention toward systemic exploitation, capital concentration, labor suppression, or the very ordinary mechanisms of class power, the discourse is flooded with lurid, sensational, half-digested “revelations” that function primarily as outrage pornography. Whether parts of these files are real, exaggerated, or outright nonsense is almost beside the point—the effect is the same. The conversation shifts from material analysis to paranoid scavenger hunts.
And this is where conspiracy thinking becomes a political dead end. People who treat every unverified, context-free claim in those files as gospel aren’t radical truth-seekers; they’re useful idiots for distraction. Conspiracism feels subversive because it flatters the believer with secret knowledge, but it is fundamentally anti-Marxist. It replaces structural critique with villain lore, collective struggle with individual villains, and historical materialism with fan fiction about hidden cabals. The result isn’t revolutionary consciousness—it’s political infantilization.
In short, third-worldist posturing and Epstein-file hysteria serve the same function: they give people something to feel angry about without giving them anything to understand. And an angry but confused population is infinitely safer for the ruling class than a calm one that actually knows how power works.

The USSR failed as a political experiment exactly because of its internationalist nature and because it suppressed the market mechanisms necessary for the entrepreneurship that generates economic development and social well-being. The USSR fractured exactly because it existed as a coalition of distinct national identities instead of a fully centralized and stable nationalistic project. As a result it splintered into a multitude of weak and irrelevant countries primed for exploitation by the capitalist hegemon. This is why we now see two former communist nations fighting in Ukraine; because the foolishness of Lenin decades prior created an unnecessary national identity which the American intelligence apparatus preyed upon and directed against Russia.

Instead of wasting resources promoting independent revolutions throughout the world, the USSR should have committed to the much wiser project of russification and centralization. It should have expanded it's sphere of influence through direct military conquest and annexation. If they had unified Eurasia under a singular national project they would have become unstoppable. They should also have allowed for the existence of markets and free enterprise, but retained control over banking and finance in order to fully and completely subject these capitalist forces to the totalizing logic of the state's developmental project. This is why China succeeded where the USSR failed. This is also why China will become the undisputed hegemon of the next world order; it is inevitable.

/MENA/#1

A general to compile all news, articles, essays and info related to the Greater Middle East-North Africa region.

Creating this general in an effort to centralize all the info that currently gets posted to 5 different threads concerning conflicts and developments in the MENA region. Seeing how slow they generally are and at risk of getting bumped off besides the Palestine thread and that it’s likely people interested in Yemen, Syria, Iran, Sudan and Palestine are likely also interested in news and info from across the region I think it would be useful to post everything in one place.

This will be the inaugural edition to see how it goes. Welcome!

Cheat Engine being sketchy

So, I remember using Cheat Engine without any problems some years ago and for a game I'm currently playing I wanted to install it again but apparently the installer comes with adware (and some other stuff even if youre careful and decline all the options). Atleast some users have started complaining about stuff being installed on their pc without consent. Alot of those complaints started about three years ago. What makes me also pretty sus is the developer being very unhelpful and going down hard on alternative download sources (those that come without the ads) not too mention him being called out on github multiple times and his responses being fishy as fuck. Anyone got an either an alternative or has some experience with this?

Electoral Abstainence is Nonsense

Explain, without making a liberalist moral argument, the material benefit of not voting in an election you have a >right to vote in.

<>


Let's cross a few low-hanging fruit off the list because apparently this board is filled with infantile /pol/transhumanist hamburgers who kneejerk at an OP without reading any replies:

<You can't vote our way out of a bourgeois system!

Yes.
That doesn't contradict the material benefits that even minor reforms bring to our ability to build a revolution.

<The only options are war criminals! I don't want to vote for a war criminal.

This is a selfish moral argument, comparable to someone who doesn't want us to kill reactionaries because violence will hurt their conscience.

<Even succdems are compromised by capital.

Yes. Conversely, they are more likely to be susceptible to pressure from worker organizations and popular movements. Electing a manipulable government is a valid tactic in forcing pro-worker change. In my country, some of the most pro-labor eras have been under anti-labor, but weak, government leaders caving to union pressure, anti-racism activists and queer-rights activists. The conservatives even legalized same-sex marriage.

<It's a waste of time.

This is one of the few valid arguments. Good on those who were going to make it.
However, it's only a valid argument if you use that time more effectively.

<My vote is statistically worthless.

This is a self-fulfilling prophecy - it's only true when enough people believe it's true.
But if you are in a region where that can't be changed, simply vote for a communist candidate for propaganda purposes. Or, in some systems, funding purposes.

Red Metal

As an avid listener of metal, something that frustrates me is the prevalence of chuds and reactionaries in metal (especially black metal). The visibility of guys like Varg and Famine of Peste Noire infamy has colored the public perception of extreme metal as being the domain of edgelord fascists. What are some metal groups that could be said to be socialist, anarchist, or leftist in some manner?

To start things off, I'd highly recommend the Panopticon album "Kentucky," which is a BM album about the state's history with labor organizing among coal miners, as well as the coal industry's destruction of the state's natural beauty. It's not a perfect album by any means but the way it mixes BM with bluegrass is cool, plus it has an incredibly redpilled message.

first post on /LGBT/

Hello. My name is Schizonymous.
I am a schizo from Plovdiv and I am a sapphic.
Hope you understand that.
I always wanted a real-life girlfriend who shares the same interests (politics, Eurovision, video games and Ongezellig) and is intelligent, kind and a hard worker. But it is extremely rare to find them now that everyone is either straight or just plain dumb as rocks and dead obnoxious. When I see a straight couple, I fucking want to cry. Why not me? Women nowadays are drawn more to attractive yet unintelligent and primitive neanderthals with over billions in net worth. There is also the problem of the Privileged being able to earn better education than the Proletariat therefore we are living in a neverending cycle of being tricked into believing that we can be anything we want to be yet there's a fucking invisible barrier between us and our dreams, just how Ouspensky had warned us - a cycle of suffering because we are too weak to do anything.

Alain Orsoni, major Corsican figure was Assassinated this mourning at his mother's funeral.

Alain Orsoni was a Corsican political and public figure.
Starting off as a far right french nationalists, he later turned toward the left and joined the FLNC, a Corsican nationalist organisation, during his time as a member, his brother got assassinated by the corsican Mafia, after a ceasire with the French, he formed his own group in order to preserve the ceasefire, he faught against other Corsican nationalist movements, while also being involved in organised crime.
After this, he moved to Nicaragua and started a gambling business he also organised an extorsion racket.
In 2008 He came back to Corsica and became president of the Football club, Ac Ajaccio. That same year, a rival gang also tried to kill him.
He was assassinated this morning, It's yet unknown who did it. But this in a context of a revival of the Corsican conflict since 2022. Perhaps it is linked ? Could also obviously be gang stuff.

I think leftypol should introduce a stricter limit on the length of posts. We live in the age of AI, and AI-generated posts are unavoidable. However, we need to find a middle ground so that the forum doesn't get flooded with AI-generated walls of text. That's why a strong character limit for posts is important. It shouldn't be too short, because that would prevent genuine effortposts. But it also shouldn't be as generous as it is now, since that enables wall-of-text bombing. A compromise is necessary in our current era.

The mod fully disables all in-game features to assist the players availing to navigate the map meaning your paper map and some screens showcasing your location is all you get to figure out where to go. I’ve navigated my way through several missions off my own accord, having to learn to be patient with outposts, run the fuck away from anything that looks like trouble and fight with barely any ammo is such a unique experience you can’t create in so many games.

Is anything going to happen to Cuba?

As you all know America has been trying to punish Cuba for 67 years (Don't you dare) for freeing themselves from American Neo-colonialism. Trump has imposed tariffs on countries that trade with Cuba and obviously America has already been doing that with the Embargo but this is different because the embargo only prevents ships that have traded with Cuba, the tariffs affect the entire country. I think that these tariffs will affect the material conditions in Cuba but it won't collapse the government, but this is also concerning because the real threat is America invading Cuba like Venezuela, even though the last time America invaded Cuba it didn't go so well this time things are different. America docent use troop-ships to land and engage in traditional combat, America is too pussy for that, instead America uses drones so Cuba would be demolished in war. The only difference between Cuba and Venezuela is that in Cuba there is no opposition movement within the country, outside the country there is the Gusano-lobby of course but there is none of that within the country and I think that the Cuban people might resist and it could turn into an Afghanistan. Because Amerikkka wants to enslave the cuban people and turn them into Amazon warehouse workers and use there island as one giant Epstein-Island and I think that the Cubans won't like that because I'm sure that many of them have read books.

The Objectively Correct™ and dialectically approved child policy for communists

1. If you live in an AES state, you must make as many children as possible. An influx of children makes your mother/fatherland STRONK and advances the forces of production towards FALC. The socialist country of yours will take good care of your children as they grow up.

1a. However, if you live in an imperial-core country, you must become anti-natalist. No more future reserve army of labour for them dirty capitalists. No more producing toddler labor aristocrats. The parasitism must end.

1b. If in imperial-core, your bourgeoisie will see the population decline, and will import migrant workers anyway. You literally can't do shit about this.

2. We must embrace our inner monke. We be homo-sapiens. We be apes with stronk monke brains. We need sociality, solidarity, culture, and most of all, love. As per 1a) it is understandable that you desire children, but as Marxists we shit on the meme of "bloodlines".

2a. In every modern state such an institution called an "orphenage" exists. If your monke brain desires child-rearing (which is completely understandable), you MUST adopt a child at the lowest age possible and raise it as your own.

2b. You must be an exceptional parent to said adopted child and you must indoctrinate it into Marxism-Leninism, as it grows up.

3. Conditional natalism is the name of the game:
>IF AES: true
>Make babbies
<IF CAPITALISM: true
<Make no babbies, adopt instead

4. Adoption of babbies is encouraged, even mandatory, in all circumstances. Getting babbies out of "state-care" and into a loving family is communist praxis. You may have 3 biological™ babbies of your own, but you must snatch 1 more from the state.

I finally figured it out

Most queer theory and medical studies regarding transexual people is mostly focused on who deserves medical transition.
It has kept me in a state of imposter syndrome/hatred towards other trans people

i kept thinking why i couldn't stop verbally abusing other transexuals in online games, i thought i perceived them as privileged for living in a first world country where they were allowed to grow up and explore their gender freely.
which isn't far from the truth;
but all this time what i've been feeling is this dread that i've been denied my transition because i'm not worthy.
even fully knowing my lack of resources it's the cause, i just couldn't detach it from the fact the entirety of queer theory in first world anglocentric countries has been weaponized against us to tell us who is deserves a happy transition and who doesn't.

and you know what's the worst part? this cycle is going to repeat itself as long as this "community" acts as an cult to individualism over actually creating support groups that don't alienate other transexuals, nobody survives alone, and i'm alone…

Como lidar com essa moda de viralatismo que está contaminando os zoomers de todo o país?
Sou auxiliar de sala de aula numa escola e todo dia eu escuto Bostil pra ca, Merdil pra la, um estudante já escreveu num trabalho valendo nota pro bimestre.
Ontem um professor advertiu que essa investida dos estadunidenses de querer classificar as facções como terrorista e só pra dar brecha para justificar uma intervenção aqui e os fedelhos riram.
Um disse que se bombardearem os prédios dos três "foderes" ele irá agradecer a Deus, outro disse que se tiver guerra ele se juntaria ao lado inimigo, não importa se e os estados unidos, China, Rússia ou a Venezuela.

LATAM people, please help me understand these guys. What kind of sociological phenomena explains so many indigenous(ish) people LARPing as nazis?
What justification do Nazi-wannabe cholos give themselves? Is it some sort of pathological denial?
There seems to be way more of those than would make sense considering only the very stupid people in a population.

epstein indirectly most likely through chris poole and his connections, created QAnon to keep in power, keep trump in power and divide the american people.
i also believe a lot of the modern online right was created for similar reasons.
