-Middle class intellectuals must create a party of dedicated cadres who will then approach the workers by committing class suicide.
-Some of these workers will be recruited as ideologically committed cadres who will then unionize their workplace, creating unions separated from the core organization
-There must be discipline and accountability
-Once there, we will somehow figure out how to solve the questions on how to organize workers in the face of globalization, capital flight, and so on
There’s no excuse at this point. Chibber has offered a viable strategy, the only problem is finding cadres willing to commit class suicide
The Chibber Strategy
So according to Vivek Chibber what communists need to do is the following:-Middle class intellectuals must create a party of dedicated cadres who will then approach the workers by committing class suicide.
-Some of these workers will be recruited as ideologically committed cadres who will then unionize their workplace, creating unions separated from the core organization
-There must be discipline and accountability
-Once there, we will somehow figure out how to solve the questions on how to organize workers in the face of globalization, capital flight, and so on
- Must engage in social reforms to gain ground and then weaken the enemy using their own tools
There’s no excuse at this point. Chibber has offered a viable strategy, the only problem is finding cadres willing to commit class suicide

Civilians under fire by gangs in Gaza: What happened in Maghazi?
The Gaza Centre for Human Rights claims that Israel is increasingly supporting these groups to carry out operations within densely populated camps and neighbourhoods. It said armed drones provided direct support on Monday, firing heavily and randomly into alleys in the camp to aid the armed men’s withdrawal. The centre added that it has documented previous violence by these groups, including looting of aid convoys, kidnappings, torture and killings, with cover or support from the Israeli army.

Israel kills at least 254 people in massive wave of strikes across Lebanon
Hours before the attacks, the US and Iran agreed to a two-week ceasefire based on an Iranian proposal that included halting attacks on Lebanon. However, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu – who otherwise approved the ceasefire – was quick to assert that the agreement did not cover Lebanon. Later on Wednesday, Trump also appeared to confirm that Lebanon was not part of the deal, saying it was instead a "separate skirmish".

Chile’s far-right government rips up plan for memorial at Pinochet torture site
The housing minister, Iván Poduje, claimed that expropriating the site would have cost more than $50m, although he did not provide evidence to support the claim. The ministries of housing and justice declined to comment further on their plans. … Villa Baviera will remain in the hands of the current landowners, a mixture of the descendants of the original German settlers and Chilean families who moved to the area, with Chile’s opposition criticising the move to scrap expropriation plans entirely rather than pause them.

The Spanish government has pardoned the Suiza 6 syndicalists, jailed since July 2025. The six members of the CNT union in Gijón, Asturias, were sentenced to three and a half years in prison and fined 125,000 euros, in a case that has threatened to criminalise workers’ solidarity.

Irish farmers protest fuel prices for second day
The protest began on Tuesday morning over the high fuel prices caused by the US-Israel war on Iran. Eamon Curley, a beef farmer and Beef Plan Movement chairman, warned that food prices will “jump up” if the government fails to act. “The farmers drive tractors, the builders drive diggers,” he said.

Nuclear family abolitionists, what is the retort to this?
Recently came across these tweets. Often I've seen folk argue that the nuclear family structure is inherently abusive and tied to capital, while others, including these tweets, argue that biological parents are the least likely to sexually abuse, unlike that of extended families/communal rearing. Are these stats any accurate at all? Discuss.

I reached mid 20s with barely any experience, autism made sure of that. Kissed a drunk lesbian once, I don't even think I looked that cute for a guy in his 20s, so I was honored more than anything. Broke up a friendship with a trans girl after some hasty choices, but she was crazy anyways. Now focusing on friends, making and deepening them.
Wish I had a man I understood and was understood by, someone light-hearted and whimsical to have fun with on the short time I have here on Earth. Femboy-ish ig, not masculine, but takes care of himself, with a touch of femininity to him. Impartial on sex, willing to do it, might be fun even.
One thing I like is the idea of relations as temporary, serial monogamy if you will. I'm all for loyalty while in a relation, but that doesn't necessarily mean it must be forever and ever. People change, why shouldn't their relations? Admittedly I do see the romance in a lifelong relation, sticking with someone and changing together with them. Besides looking for a new partner every x amount of years sounds exhausting.
Romance & Love thread
Figured I made a thread to share our romantic experiences – or lack of thereof, – opinions, wishes and advice. That is part of the whole LGBT experience besides the sex and gender.I reached mid 20s with barely any experience, autism made sure of that.

So, it appears that despite the most common assumptions, labour "aristocratic"/well paid workers can and have been notable partecipants in the class struggle, everywhere from Italy to Chile and from the UK to South Africa
> The most important counter-example is the Russian working class in the early 20th century. The backbone of Lenin’s Bolsheviks (something he was most definitely aware of) were the best paid industrial workers in the Russian cities – skilled machinists in the largest factories. Lower paid workers, such as the predominantly female textile workers, were generally either unorganized or apolitical (until the beginnings of the revolution) or supported the reformist Mensheviks.
> German Communism became a mass movement when tens of thousands of well-paid metal workers left the Independent Socialists and joined the Communists in 1921. The French and Italian Communists also became mass parties through the recruitment of thousands of machinists who led the mass strikes of the postwar period. These highly paid workers were also overrepresented in the smaller Communist parties of the United States and Britain.
> In Chile between 1970 and 1973, and Argentina between 1971 and 1974, copper miners and metal workers engaged in industrial struggles and took the lead in mass mobilizations against the military and the right. In Brazil, it was the well-paid metal workers in the suburbs of San Paolo who led mass strikes in the 1970s that created the CUT
> it was the highest paid Black workers in South Africa – in mining, auto, steel – whose struggles in the 1970s created the radical and militant FOSATU trade union confederation.

Honest question (NOT trolling):
What exactly should the western left do for Palestine that they haven’t already been doing for the past 2.5 years (or even longer for that matter)?
I’ve seen Palestinian activists say “we need to do more to stop the genocide” more times than I can count. But what should we feasibly be doing that we’re not doing already? Boycotts? Mass protests? Blockading arms sales? Policing your peers’ consumer habits so they’re compliant with BDS? Making lists of politicians who receive money from AIPAC and voting them out? We’ve done this already. In NYC, there was a mass protest every fucking weekend where we were told to “escalate for Gaza” yet we never escalated; I don’t even fucking know what “escalate” is supposed to mean. Were we supposed to be engaging in violent riots and molotoving the banks or whatever?
I asked this to a comrade of mine and he said: “You know what we mean when we want the left to do more for Palestine.” By that, he clearly means engage in political violence, bring back the Weathermen. But how would ultra-left adventurism do anything? Elias Rodriguez did exactly this and is now facing life in prison for killing two interns who were replaced the next day. What a fucking waste.
The American left is way too weak, disorganized, and incompetent to do anything meaningful to help the Palestinians resist or stop Israel. It’s gotten to the point where people are putting all their hope and faith in the idea Israel will collapse on its own because they’ve run out of strategies. So what should the left be doing that it’s not doing already? Give clear examples.

Were we supposed to be engaging in violent riots and molotoving the banks or whatever?
I asked this to a comrade of mine and he said: “You know what we mean when we want the left to do more for Palestine.” By that, he clearly means engage in political violence, bring back the Weathermen. But how would ultra-left adventurism do anything? Elias Rodriguez did exactly this and is now facing life in prison for killing two interns who were replaced the next day. What a fucking waste.
The American left is way too weak, disorganized, and incompetent to do anything meaningful to help the Palestinians resist or stop Israel. It’s gotten to the point where people are putting all their hope and faith in the idea Israel will collapse on its own because they’ve run out of strategies. So what should the left be doing that it’s not doing already? Give clear examples.

Originally, I had read Engels' Anti-Duhring, in which he argues that dialectical analysis is essentially a physical interaction, which, in human societies, translate into different classes fighting for their existence and needs (i.e. the bourgeoisie wants low salaries, the proletariat needs higher salaries, conflict occurs = law of interpenetration of opposites). The argument is very "physicalist" and relies on seeing nature as a totality in constant mutation.
HOWEVER, Lukacs seems to completely disregard this. Instead, his dialectics could be best described by the following : Any individual has multiple possibilities to realize his "teleological acts" (conscious acts aimed at satisfaction of desires/needs/sustenance etc). Alienation occurs when he is constrained by an external cause to choose a possibility unsatisfactory compared to others. As such, the dialectic is essentially a movement between the individual who attempts to overcome this alienation, which translates into class war (proletariat see capitalism as irrational for them, but are forced to endure it => conflict with the bourgeoisie).
So, which is it ? Lukacs' dialectics imo can be reconciled with Engels, but it makes the latter's work appear as very superficial.

Why are so many communists opposed to state's rights to national self-administration? Isn't it the job of the local working class to sort out their own contradictions? This just seems like rainbow imperialism. I think an orthodox ML approach would recognize the conversion of many red states to internal colonies and their right to secession. Does not the brain drain of workers from red/rural states to blue/urban states mirror migrant labor from the imperial periphery? In the town-country contradiction, we should support the country.

Granted, I never lived in the part of “Europe“ people talk about when using the term (which usually refers to just north-west Europe), but I do think Americans’ perception of what modern European countries (particularly those west of the Berlin Wall) are very distorted. For the sake of argument, I’ll be focusing on the EU.
For starters, both world wars and the instability of the European spring of 1848 has led to a lack of development of negative rights as well as the notion to more democracy = censorship, which is why censorship is more normalised in Europe than in America which has the first amendment. The biggest example would be the ECHR’s article 10 which makes it clear that freedom of speech isn’t absolute, which is a good example of how illiberal tendencies can exist in a seemingly “liberal” land. On the top of that, inequality is high in Europe, especially in terms of the holding power of the former aristocratic classes on European politic. As an example, Britain still has appointed lords even though the nobles’ powers have diminished a long ago, and by the time the French Revolution ended most of the aristocrats assimilated themselves into France’s political machine, whilst in Scandinavia wealth inequality is high.
As for racism, I would say that Europe is worst based on both data and personal experience. Remember Shiloh Hendrix? Well, if she did the same thing she did but in any European country, no one would bat an eye. Remember, hate speech laws are just lawfare, they’re not about “protecting minorities“ as its supporters claim. But it’s not just the micro level since hiring discrimination and lack of access to meaningful resources means many immigrants that weren’t wealthy on arrival (e.g., expats) are stuck on welfare and meagre wage or none. This in contrast to America where immigrants are treated better socially in spite of the lack of fringe benefits like universal healthcare.
I mean, Denmark is robbing refugees as a deterrent policy, France is suppressing Islamic religiosity while letting tradCaths scot-free (at least from an outsiders’ POV) to enforce its concept of state secularism (i.e., laïcité) which stands at odds with Americans’ conception of religious freedom. Many of these things (courtesy of Europe’s PMC) would be controversial among American leftists if done in America since it would remind them of the problems they see at home, further underscoring how nonsensical their glazing of Europe is.
And now, for foreign policy: Besides being partners-in-crime with the American empire, certain EU countries maintain their own formal empires such as France’s franceafrique and Quebec as well as its overseas territories, Britain with its commonwealth like Canada, and Denmark with Greenland.
As for domestic policy? Besides Starmer doing Trumpian cuts on the much-vaulted British welfare system, other European countries committing to austerity in order to boost their own war machines, as well as seeing European reactionaries managing to get second place in their latest elections (e.g., Portugal with Chega, Germany with AfD, etc…) or win them outright (e.g., my own country with the “post-fascist” FdI, or Sweden with a righ-to-centre-right coalition supported by the far-right Sweden Democrats), Europe is far from the progressive paradise Americans imagine it to be.
Culture? If the fact that the Democratic Party (the American party of the bourgeoisie) doing well in many European polls isn’t a big tell, then I‘ll spell it out to you: European culture in general is very bourgeois, with the populace being enthralled with everything bourgeois.
This is more noticeable in north-west Europe, unlike in the poorer parts of the EU across its southern & eastern members which is more subtle but still there. You’ll notice this whenever they talk about America in general, where the venomous parts aren‘t just for the US government but also for Americans as a people. in fact, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that it’s a form of classism since in contrast to European/EU culture, that of the USA is very prole-coded and has been so for a long time, and I think part of the friction between Europeans and Americans has a lot to do with American culture being relatively egalitarian for all of its faults. At least, that’s what I think.
Special mention doesn’t end at the welfare state (which is actually not socialist, but capitalist and has often served as a means to stave off any proletarian revolt since it was often pushed by religious Christians in 19th and 20th century Europe to reduce the power of socialist and more radical labor movements), but at the fact that the EU’s constitution and its legislation on private property means that it’s impossible to be a socialist, let alone communist, EU member legally.
Now that the blockade of the strait of Hormuz is set to be worse than both of the 1970s energy crises, one wonders if the cargo-cult-level worship will continue on even as both Britain and the EU will become more totalitarian and fascist in the coming decades regardless of the incumbent government. I mean, Europeans in general are already “arabising” insofar that wignat-levels of retarded reactionary politics based on accomplishments that are becoming increasingly irrelevant is already becoming popular across the EU and post-Brexit UK, so it’s hard to say if American leftists will start to look over China for inspiration, or continue to worship the capitalist welfare states of Scandinavia or not.
With all that said, the question remains: Why do American leftists (particularly socdems and shitlibs) glaze over Europe/EU, and do they still do that?
Why do Burger leftoids worship the EU
Heads up: I’m Italian, and as such I’m genuinely fascinated by how often American leftists have an utopian view of Europe, supposedly for its egalitarian and “socialist” policies, which actually runs counter to my experience. They might as well be the EU’s strongest soldier, believing in the EU more than the average European.Granted, I never lived in the part of “Europe“ people talk about when using the term (which usually refers to just north-west Europe), but I do think Americans’ perception of what modern European countries (particularly those west of the Berlin Wall) are very distorted.

If anyone has good books on Romani history then please post them!
International Romani Day
Happy International Romani Day! I don't actually know much about them other than they experience terrible open discrimination by racists and the pig force. So I think it's important to recognise them as a discriminated group in European countries. They should have an SSR.If anyone has good books on Romani history then please post them!

No, the charges were dropped because by the very nature of the bourgeois court systems, there's nothing worth doing. He's too public a figure now, and it would be a shit show the entire time and completely unravel the arbitrary and selective enforcement of contradictory laws over 300 years of documentation of court interpretation. Whatever judge would touch it, would easily be countered by another judge, and all the same it would be impossible to wrangle a jury that's cooperative in just giving him the plain guilty verdict they'd so want. Out of the four charges, the only ones that have stuck are the stalking ones against Brian Thompson and that's nothing. That's baby shit misdemeanors. I've been accused of stalking before.
You won't hear about his civil case and even than that might not even happen. If anything at all happens to Luigi it'll be a harmless fine. The lesson here is if you go to kill someone, make sure the whole world is watching. Which is why the cointelpro fags tell you "fedposting". They want you scared, when really they're the ones who are scared. Their entire system relies on your cooperation and why would you cooperate when you do not benefit? That's retarded.
Deny the allegations and facts not conducive to your wants
Defend the terrorists and other nay doers that upset others
Depose everyone ever whose ever worked a job. Fuck subservient wagies.
Mama Luigi will not be going to trial and the bourgeois media isn't saying it outloud
It's because of their own system this is the case too. It helps that Luigi was an attractive man from a privileged background, but he never even went to trial for that to matter. He isn't some business tycoon too dangerous to lose, he didn't hire the best lawyers, femcels aren't strapping bombs to themselves in protest for Chad although that'd be hilarious.No, the charges were dropped because by the very nature of the bourgeois court systems, there's nothing worth doing.

How should leftists deal with insular communities after the revolution??
Should they be allowed to keep existing or should we dismantle them and force them into mainstream society?
I'm talking about people like Orthodox Jews, the Amish, Buddhists in monestaries and fundamentalist Muslims like the people you see in ghettos in the UK and France.

In reality, Mamdani is a total fraud. He’s pandered to Zionists even before taking office. Then after taking office he’s sucked up to Chabad-Lubavitcher which is a satanic racist Jewish supremacist org with ties to the Russian mafia and Zionist entity. Why? He’s even thrown his own wife under the bus for working with Palestinian liberation activist Susan Abdulhawa. I guess he thinks kosher feelings outweigh Palestinian lives. He hasn’t done anything he’s promised in making NYC a cheaper and easier place to live. And yet delusional leftists still love and support him.
If Mamdani was truly principled he’d make it illegal to be a Zio in NYC. Semd police to monitor all synagogues for promoting Zionism. Track donations to the IOF from Jewish orgs. Fully divest NYC from the Zionist entity and all companies that do business with the Zionist entity. Get ICE to deport anyone with Zionist entity citizenship ( I hear there are a lot of them in Brooklyn and Queens). Ban AIPAC and all other pro-Zionist groups. Shut down businesses like Eichler’s which routinely sell Zionist products.
Mamdani ran on the basis of defying the Zionist Lobby so he needs to keep his promises.

Network of revolutionary supportive communities
Best way to organize nowadays is at a community level. These communities shall serve as material and social support among its members. Improving the material conditions counters the entrenched anti-communist sentimient among the population. It is then possible to establish a network of these communities on a regional or national scale, by coordinating a single aim.This is, I believe, the modern Platform

Fewer buses on Argentina's streets as fuel costs rise and subsidies go unpaid
Public transport buses in the capital and its densely populated outskirts are running at reduced frequencies due to rising fuel prices linked to the war in the Middle East and delays in subsidy payments, industry sources said on Tuesday. The drop in activity has led to long queues of passengers queueing at the main transport hubs connecting the capital with its surrounding areas. Some two million people commute between the two regions daily.

Brazil puts China's BYD on list of shame for workers' past slavery-like conditions
Chinese workers hired by Jinjiang in Brazil had to hand over their passports to their new employer, let most of their wages be sent directly to China, and fork over an almost $900 deposit that they could only get back after six months' work, according to a labor contract seen by Reuters. A raid by labor inspectors also found the laborers living crammed in lodgings without mattresses.

The source said the coalition intercepted three of the drones, while the fourth "fell in an open area in the vicinity of the base", adding that they were launched from Iraq.

Reading this site was the biggest redpill I ever taken, literally a class of uber rich rig the game in their favor and they don't give a fuck about the little man, ridiculous, I thought this whole idea of some minority class controlling stuff was in the realm of conspirary tard, from both left and right, after reading a genuine rational sociologist arriving at this conclusion made me mad and sad, fuck this shit.

Some of the greatest art of all time has been religiously motivated. But the question of Christianity specifically is a big one. On one hand all manner of brown people are more sincerely christian than a lot of white people have ever been. It might be the one thing saving Africa right now!
But on the other hand The first Roman Empire & Greek empire were polytheistic & they might have achieved a civilizational peak that surpasses the situation we live in right now. Christianity is very homophobic & a huge portion of Europe/UK demographics are atheist & seem to be some of the happiest nations on earth. Christianity might even be the reason that the Roman Empire fell & is responsible for a lot of really bad imperialism & colonialism.
What am I supposed to make of it? Jesus was surely a good man, no? The word of god has saved homeless, sick, and morally corrupt. Where does the justification to do evil come from when people read this?

Is Khrushchev /ourguy/? What does /leftypol/ think of him? Was he right to shit on Stalin in the Secret Speech?
From Socialism AI:
From a Trotskyist, materialist-historical standpoint, Nikita Khrushchev (First Secretary 1953–1964) was not a corrective of the Stalinist counter-revolution nor a socialist renewer. He was a leading figure of the Soviet bureaucracy—a managerial caste that emerged out of objective conditions created by a revolutionary past and the protracted international isolation of the USSR. Khrushchev’s policies represented attempts by layers of the bureaucracy to stabilize and legitimize their rule amid profound social and international contradictions, not a restoration of genuine proletarian democracy or socialism.
Is the Trotskyist take right?

With the amount of shill threads about Stellar Blade I kept seeing on 4chan /v/ saying it was a "decent action game" I ended up buying it along with some other games for my brother's birthday last year (at great expense as it's a modern video game and all).

Trust me, as a Yankee or Gringo or Statesian or whatever you want us to call ourselves instead of American, The U$ will never get off your guys asses until you develop a Nuclear Weapon, look at what happened to Maduro who didn't have nukes vs Kim Jong Un who does have nukes, Maduro got kidnapped and Kim just won 99% of the vote. Obviously the U$ will fight tooth and nail to stop you guys from getting nukes, look at Iran, so you have to do it in secret and also have multiple countries do it at the same time, also develop a different reserve currency independent of the U$ dollar so that way when they we try to sanction you it we will be the only ones being sanctioned.

Even when you think "neat, this cool shit isn't even being used for military shit", you will be wrong and sooner or later the company will be complicit in the murdering of poor people and in the continuation of the surveillance state.
Right now I'm just a grunt in the machine and all I can think about is that I have to get out. The pay is decent so I'll just crush my soul on a daily basis so I can get out of this place, it is the first time in my life I've been able to put some money on the side so I can't get myself to quit just yet, I also need a plan.

This is incorrect as, while America is a settler-colonial state, nonetheless was founded on the basis of enlightenment principles like equality before the law and liberty, considering how the American and French revolutions at the time were leftist at the time of the events, with the notion of equality of men itself being already extremely radical at a time when absolute monarchies were the standard in Europe. That’s not all, as contrary to popular opinion the Founding Fathers themselves weren’t conservative. Whether it’s the lack of any mention specifying the USA as a “white Christian country” founded on the basis of theology in the constitution and the federalist papers, George Washington himself coming to oppose slavery before the abolitionist movement began to gain momentum, many of said fathers being at best deists or nominally Christian, the USA being effectively the first democratic republic in history with limited suffrage being a short-lived experiment that was swept away in favour of universal male suffrage, Thomas Jefferson himself owning a copy of the Quran and a version of the Bible excised of all supernatural elements and among other examples show that the USA was far from the hotbed of reactionary politics both liberals and chuds tend to portray it as. Even the Indian Removal Act that led to the infamous “Trail of Tears” wasn’t unanimously agreed upon, with strong opposition by Christian missionaries and other politicians who opposed it based on the shared humanity and parity between white settlers Native Americans. Indeed, while such ideals coexisted with institutionalised inequality, it is precisely by appealing to those founding ideals unique to America's foundations that movements like MLK's civil rights was even possible. Indeed, had it not been for America, most of the progressive movements in other parts of the west wouldn't even exist (e.g., Germany's gay liberation movement, extirpated by nazism and only resurged in the postwar period because of the rise of America's gay rights movement.)
So it’s no wonder given all this that, despite the reproduction of reactionary politics like Manifest Destiny and Jim Crow laws, the notion of equality (or pretence to it) persisted throughout American history, which laid the seeds for the civil rights, feminist, and gay rights movements of the contemporary era. And I would argue that it is said notion that distinguishes the American project from other settler-colonies that were more explicit on their racial/ethnic/theological basis, such as Argentina, Australia, Canada, and of course, Israel.
It should also be noted that the USA, for all of its faults, isn’t currently segregating Native Americans from mainstream American society via a state-sponsored countrywide system of racial segregation, nor bombing every Indian reserve and sponsoring white Americans (immigrant or not) to steal land from indigenous people and kicking out of their home by force. So, one could counter-argue that it’s a difference of ‘degrees of coloniality’ rather than absence of it. But I digress. Not to peddle Whig history slop, but it’s undeniable that America was founded on a notion of equality between races and faiths that is completely absent in contrast to the founding of Israel.
Israel just isn’t analogous to America, especially given how Israel both defines itself in particularist ethno-centric ways and has a theological basis that America lacks, as well as how Israeli settler-colonialism follows along the models of standard European colonialism combined with state terrorism both against Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza (to the point that Israel is engaging in genocide there). So while the USA isn’t currently engaging in genocide against its natives, the same can’t be said for Israel and its society, where the grand majority of Israelis are effectively kahanists per the latest opinion polls. And that goes for the entire political right and most of the political left in Israel, so let that sink in.
From a leftist standpoint, it can be said that settler-colonialism in the Americas played a historically progressive role in developing productive forces, while simultaneously producing deeply reactionary social relations. The same cannot be said of modern Israeli settler-colonialism, which does not represent a transition to a higher mode of production, but rather a reproduction of imperial domination in a more concentrated form. Ultimately, the claim that “Israel is just like America” obscures more than it reveals. Both are products of colonial history, but they occupy different positions within the global capitalist system. Recognizing this distinction allows for a clearer analysis of imperialism today, especially as Palestinians (unlike the indigenous peoples of the Americas) had their own conception of private property alongside their own bourgeoisie that predates the Balfour Declaration.
Now, if we had to give the closest western analogue, that would be Australia. Back when he was just a war-mongering liberal instead of a war-mongering white nationalist radlib, Drew Pavlou debated (and lost) against neo-nazi Joel Davis on immigration, with Joel making the interesting point that Australia was ran as a white nationalist colonial state and that the founding fathers of Australia and its past PMs were under no delusion that Australia was anything more than a white nationalist state, the “White Australia Policy” being the formalisation of such ideals into law. Indeed, since the dominion’s government lacked any significant armed opposition on the part of Aboriginals of Australia, it can be said that the current Australian policies towards mass immigration and multiculturalism were less about equality than they were about chasing after cheap labor per the needs of the capitalist elites and perhaps tailing after America. The same can be said in the cases of the republic of Argentina and the dominion of Canada, both of which were ran explicitly as white nationalist states, albeit with special emphasis on their links with their metropoles (formerly Spain and currently the UK/France, respectively), the liberalisations of immigration laws and moves towards a less racially-exclusionary definition of their identities only occurring in the late 20th century long after the US did the same.
All in all: There’s nothing inconsistent between being an anti-Zionist and being an American patriot on the basis of opposition to genocide and anti-imperialism. It's best not to give zionists more ammo, as it is a common hasbara talking point to equate Israeli settler-colonialism with America's one, and thus equivocate all critiques of zionism as being implicitly anti-American.

P.S.: I’m not trying to make apologetics for American atrocities then and now, I’m simply pointing out the need to fight against the attempts of both Hasbara mockingbird media and misguided anti-zionists to equivocate American history with Israeli history to sway American public opinion on Israel’s favor. Unless you think America as a nation is in any way redeemable, then you might as well give up on agitating for revolution in America and just go to another country. What more can I say?
On Settler-Colonialism: America vs Israel
I see a lot of talk concerning how Israel should be supported by the USA and European countries for various reasons and, notably, none of them concern with material benefits for either native Europeans or long-time American citizens, instead focusing on abstractions and ideals. As Trump has led the USA into another forever war with Iran (at the behest of Israel, per the words of US Secretary of State Marco Rubio), it is pertinent to talk about a common anti-Zionist talking point that I find counterproductive. Namely: Israel’s colonialism is the same as that of American settle colonialism from the late 18th century to the early 20th century.This is incorrect as, while America is a settler-colonial state, nonetheless was founded on the basis of enlightenment principles like equality before the law and liberty, considering how the American and French revolutions at the time were leftist at the time of the events, with the notion of equality of men itself being already extremely radical at a time when absolute monarchies were the standard in Europe.

>When Americans begin taking appetite-suppressing drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy, the changes extend well beyond the bathroom scale. According to new research, the medications are associated with meaningful reductions in how much households spend on food, both at the grocery store and at restaurants.
>The result is one of the most comprehensive looks yet at how GLP-1 adoption is associated with changes in everyday food purchasing in the real world.
>The headline finding is striking: Within six months of starting a GLP-1 medication, households reduce grocery spending by an average of 5.3%. Among higher-income households, the drop is even steeper, at more than 8%. Spending at fast-food restaurants, coffee shops and other limited-service eateries falls by about 8%.
>Ultra-processed, calorie-dense foods – the kinds most closely associated with cravings – saw the sharpest declines. Spending on savory snacks dropped by about 10%
>The effects extended beyond the supermarket. Spending at limited-service restaurants such as fast-food chains and coffee shops fell sharply as well.
>For food manufacturers, restaurants and retailers, widespread GLP-1 adoption could mean long-term shifts in demand, particularly for snack foods and fast food.
>“At current adoption rates, even relatively modest changes at the household level can have meaningful aggregate effects,” Hristakeva said.

Here is my dialectical engagement, as they were on to something important, not usually recognized, but also partially incorrect. I attempt to correct it ITT.
Unequal exchange, Mao/Chinese aesthetics and purely performative MLM rhetoric has grown in recent years… But with time comes change.
The original 90s ThirdWorldism "movement", centered in north-america diverged from MLM on a variety of theoretical issues, most crucially the revolutionary nature of the proletariat. They supplemented their divergence with integrating post-Marxist turns happening in word-systems theory (which was ongoing in western academia between the 80s and 90s). As ""Maoism" ThirdWorldism" largely accomplished nothing, other than maybe increasing confusion in the communist movement during the era of blackest reaction, we mostly remember them by their cartoony writing and online media available through archives from that era.
So if 90s Third Worldism was a north-american revisionist offshoot from MLM which integrated non-Wallerstinian unequal exchange theory and rejecting revolution in the imperial core for rhetorical "support" of [far off, peripheral countries]… What are the particularities of the contemporary expression?
2020s Third Worldism can be observed as being a north-american right-wing revisionist movement which retains both the non-Wallerstinian unequal exchange theory and the purely symbolic appeals to Mao, but now replacing the "MLM" pretender framing for the simpler, safer state ideology of social-imperialist China; that also just so happens to feign adherence to 'Mao Zedong Thought', even after it was systematically replaced with the Bukharinist-Dengist capitulationist counterrevolution. which is continued today, the true basis for Xi Jinping Thought, as the bureaucrat-monopoly capitalist heading the political line of the party has only deepened the cementation of a new pole in the capitalist imperialist world system since Deng, when neither as many NEZ, stock markets, overall % of bourgeois in the party or billionaires existed in China. Mao Zedong Thought lives on in the rural and urban areas of any militant area of the world where the struggle is advanced. Not in the cultural exports of US and Chinese imperialist dogs.
This 20 min zoom call encapsulates the political analysis and tactics of Dengism-ThirdWorldism perfectly:
>What is the path toward socialism? (Vijay Prashad (Tricontinental), Radhika Desai (Geopolitical Economy Report), Torkil Lauesen & Immanuel Ness - Lauesen a late 20th century ThirdWorldist adventurist in Denmark, both non-Wallerstinian Unequal Exchange theorists)
https://youtu.be/KR9PbqqdiLg
Maybe archive it, as their utterances, especially Prashad's, are sure to age badly
What some real examples of concrete crystallizations of Dengism-ThirdWorldism?
· Parties: PSL, CPI (Maupin), ACP (post-MIGA), Workers Party (UK, Galloway)
· Orgs/media outlets: The Tricontinental, Friends of Socialist China, BreakThrough News, Geopolitical Economy Report, Xiao Collective, Critical Theory Workshop, Wave Media
In summary, the revolutionary pretense of a "Maoism" ThirdWorldism has been radically muted this time around actually, if we pay attention. The reason is because astroturfing a Dengism ThirdWorldism is actually way cheaper, as appeals to pacifism, reformism, peaceful coexistence, human rights and authority of the UN and speech rather than revolution requires the petty bourg (US) and nat bourg (China) forces funding these groups to expend way less money (it would also indicate the bare minimum of conflictuality outside of mere capitalist competition).
Materialist analysis: ThirdWorldism - second time as farce.
Recently saw a discussion in regards to "Third Worldism" as in MLM + unequal exchange (a non-Wallerstinian branch of world systems theory) having grown in influence in the anglophone/western, largely online, "communist" spaces.Here is my dialectical engagement, as they were on to something important, not usually recognized, but also partially incorrect.

Why do "left-wing" influencers and politicians absolutely REFUSE to do even the slightest bit of research into trans people? Especially the ones who regularly debate rightoids, who are guaranteed to bring it up every single conversation without exception, you'd think they would want to be prepared for that, but they never are. They just concede to their nonsense and then go on to parrot fascist narratives about trans people as if they're fact. Especially frustrating when it's the type of essay or debate Youtuber who normally does tons of research into whatever they're discussing, but completely drops the ball when it comes to trans people.
Why? Why are they allergic to researching this topic? Why do they trust the word of perpetual liars and bigots on this one specific topic? It's so utterly baffling. Are they being paid to delegitimize the trans movement? I'd expect this kind of thing from liberals, but are 99% of "leftists" really so devoid of morals that they'd participate in such corruption? I can't think of any other explanatoon that explains how widespread this is.

So, assume for this thread that by "ruling class," we mean the political active faction of the owning class (bourgeoisie) who, for the most part, would rather just sit on their butts and receive stock dividends. The ruling class itself controls the media apparatus, corporation, and politics of the western world.
I bring this up because I'm about to read "DuPont Dynasty: Beyond the Nylon Curtain" a book so damning that the DuPonts attempted to buy every copy of it and now the price for a hardcopy is over $500 (I'm getting mine from the library)
The DuPonts are a family of chemical manufacturing magnates who are largely responsible for the state of Delaware being a tax haven for corporations today. I know they've had a hand in deregulation and stifling reports of asbestos toxicity, but I hope to learn more from the book.
Robert H. Richards IV, a Dupont Heir, was found guilty in 2014 of raping his own daughter and as punishment had to attend rehabilitation (which he never did) and got labelled as a sex offender. He also molested his own son repeatedly and despite his ex-wife's best efforts did not face any legal repercussions for doing so.
In the US, some of the most notable ruling class families are the Astors, Rockefellars, DuPonts, Kennedys, Guggenheims, Rothschilds, Fords, Vanderbilts, Morgans, and Bushes. Not all of them are American but the capitalist class is transnational. There are others. Some, like the Vanderbilts, have largely lost their fortune but due to intermarriage with other families (except notably the Rothschilds who favor inbreeding) they have managed to maintain some power. Anderson Cooper is a vanderbilt to give you an example of how far they have fallen–even the haute bourgeoisie are not immune to proletarianization.

Realize that the left only shoots itself in the foot when they denounce legitimate acts of resistance as “false flags” and the people engaged in said resistance as “agent provocateurs.” The Years of Lead in Italy were successful for western imperialists largely because communists kept accusing other communists of being provocateurs, e.g. the Italian Communist Party claiming the Red Brigades were agents. When Greek anarchists occupied the Polytechnic in Athens in 1973, the Greek Communist Party denounced them as “CIA agents”, only for the Greek communists to claim credit for the occupations when students from the general student body took over. Likewise, during the George Floyd Uprising, Black activists who engaged in radical direct actions were accused of being agent provocateurs by white peace police. The problem is NEVER comrades who engage in violence aimed at oppressors but ALWAYS the people spreading lies about those direct actions being “false flags.” Learn this.
West Bloomfield Temple Israel attack
Stop calling this a false flag. The man who attacked this Zio gathering place only did so out of his justified anger over the murder of his family in Lebanon by the Zionist entity. Every and all Zios are NOT “innocent” and should never be mourned.Realize that the left only shoots itself in the foot when they denounce legitimate acts of resistance as “false flags” and the people engaged in said resistance as “agent provocateurs.” The Years of Lead in Italy were successful for western imperialists largely because communists kept accusing other communists of being provocateurs, e.g. the Italian Communist Party claiming the Red Brigades were agents. When Greek anarchists occupied the Polytechnic in Athens in 1973, the Greek Communist Party denounced them as “CIA agents”, only for the Greek communists to claim credit for the occupations when students from the general student body took over. Likewise, during the George Floyd Uprising, Black activists who engaged in radical direct actions were accused of being agent provocateurs by white peace police. The problem is NEVER comrades who engage in violence aimed at oppressors but ALWAYS the people spreading lies about those direct actions being “false flags.” Learn this.

It is a fact that you get smarter the further left you lean, and since aliens are able to build
saucers, they’re way smarter than us, not to mention space time dilation meaning they progress
faster than us.
So, the further left you lean, the smarter you are, what would an ultra intelligent life form be?
And don’t bullshit and say “wElL aLiEnS aReNt rEaL”. Come on..
Are aliens ML’s?

- mass immigration is bad overall (I'm not against immigration per se, more like unfiltered immigration is quiet bad in my opinion)
-religion in general are bad, reactionary and backwater, and trying to "fuse" religion and left leaning politics are bound to fail because both doesn't mix well
-"liberal" eugenics is mostly right and should be mass adopted
-China is actually a trying a form of modernize socialism with end goal of becoming a full fledged socialist nation when they exhaust the market-capitalism form of relation in the country
-North Korea is a abomination of socialism
-Supporting Russia is stupid because Putin is nowhere near close to be a support of socialism and progressive politics and is just a form of support imperialist politics by because isn't western somehow is good, it's like supporting japanese imperialism back in the WW 2 era isn't western

IDK, just fuck my shit up fam.
"RedPill" Me on Trotsky
TL;DR I saw this one edit about Trotsky and, TBH, it hits all the right notes with me. Being very individualistic and such but not liking the Right, this edit and this quote hits me hard.How accurate is it?

I feel like everyone hates me because I don't side with their religious or political views
I hate the human race
Humans are destructive, why would I want to contribute to a society that constantly kills each other?
Most people are sociopaths
I'm tired of them trying to include me into their soykaf
I think the planet would be better off without humans
I'm tired of humanity, I see no purpose in contributing to this hell
I'd rather be homeless and free to reign than to work for a species of violent apes
I'm tired of all this
I'm not going to work or contribute to society in any way
Most people are retarded assholes and the government does not represent my views or needs, instead we have idiots sacrificing my rights to appease elites.I feel like everyone hates me because I don't side with their religious or political views

this is a communist website, not a "leftist" website, we are about the interests of the proletariat, not the """working""" class in the imperial core which soaks up money while chatting at fake office job. nobody cares about your national socialist program to defend the left wing of capital. the proletariat is the immiserated, commodity-producing, worker who produces surplus value and earns a subsistence wage. he has no savings. american workkkers can save from their jobs. american workkker gets 401kkk from imperialist spoils.
every amerikkkan on this board comes from /pol/ and this place was originally intended as a way for the rest of the world to discuss the amerikkkan question without you inserting yourself. our board has been couped by the CIA.
i am posting this thread because the Amerikan general has regressed quickly in recent years due to gross increase of treats. Thread has degenerated into small gang of imperialist diehards who at every turn plea for supposed """proletarian""" genocidal settler
they cry out in pain as the tools of genocide and imperialism which have been deployed on the imperial periphery for decades with the approval of the western left now being applied closer to home. Not the heckin herrenvolk! Keep the nasty genocide away from our suburbs! Those “people” are less than scum
