Lebanon

A country that once killed Shiites for Israel from the north in the 1970s is now getting played by Israel. Just recently, Israel bombed Father Pierre Al-Rahi. They're killing and displacing Christians/Catholics too. Israel must be stopped before they take over all of Lebanon and turn it into Greater Israel.

FREE ERIK HOUDINI

COMRADES OF LEFTYPOL, ERIK HOUDINI NEEDS YOUR SOLIDARITY
Houdini has been arrested.
https://gofund.me/826555a5f

He is in deep Florida country. Anons in Florida, please do what you can for him. Those who can make online payments, please help him.

Pasting the message from his comrades:
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
TL;DR Our friend Erik is in jail for allegedly trolling a right wing influencer, Kaitlin Bennet, and we’re putting together a bail fund for him. If we don't get him out in 10 days or locate a foster the local animal shelter may put down his dog.



Hey everyone. We do not come here lightly and it is with a heavy heart that we come to you and ask for monetary assistance. Not for ourselves but for a dear friend of ours who was arrested Tuesday February 24th 2026 by the police.

Sometime in November of 2025, not long after the Kirk assassination, our friend allegedly got into a conflict on Instagram with a right wing influencer, Kaitlin Bennet, when she visited their city. In this conflict he allegedly referenced Kirk's assassination and that was enough for her to take these as threats on her life and call the police on him and an investigation was conducted where they allegedly found evidence of plans to harass Bennet next time she visits their City.

He never threatened to hurt or kill her, but they live in one of the most conservative areas in the the country where stochastic terrorists like Bennet can get away with whatever and sic the police on political dissidents.

We spoke with the detective handling his case and he informed me that the state is only seeking probation for him, but as many of you know we live in a tiered justice system and the first hurdle in that justice system is bail bonds. Despite the state not seeing him as dangerous and not seeking to put him in prison or charge him with a felony they set his bail to $20K with his first court date being March 31st.

We will have to go the bail bondsman route which means we need $2k to pay the bail bondsman and get him out of jail. Or somehow raise the full $20k. Past this our friend will need assistance with court fees, lawyer fees, living and eating expenses, and more.

My friend Erik has been experiencing housing instability for over 8 months now living out of a motel in the area. He just landed a full time position 2 weeks ago and was finally going to see some stability in his life which makes the timing of all this incredibly tragic. The sooner we get him out of jail and back to his job the less disruptive this will be to his life.

His dog Jax was also taken to a local animal Shelter by the police and he has 10 days to claim him and if he does not claim Jax then Jax might be put down. Suffice to say he cannot claim Jax while in jail.

Please donate whatever you can time is of the essence here.



Please see an excerpt below of Erik's project Houdini Magazine, where you may famously know him from:

"HOUDINI magazine is the brainchild of Erik Houdini and a faceless army of working class—writers, artists, musicians, researchers, scientists, producers, first responders, film makers, journalists, clerks, taggers, goths, 'reformed' felons, juggalos, janitors, freaks, radicals, truckers, addicts, activists, schemers, plotters, connivers, psychonauts, conspirators, swashbucklers, dastardly dudes, femme fatales, them fatales— and whoever else decided that today was the day we start giving a shit about each other.

Well over half a million total visitors. The big dogs of the underground. HOUDINI exists to reclaim counterculture from the branded dead. Anti-corpo, broke as fuck, grindset bros who read Marx. Hustlers who respect their own, living theory without reading it, tired of being ground into soylent by the powers that be. Chaos magicians who dog-ear Kropotkin. Real, human, DIY, underground counterculture.

We believe a true counterculture, should it be forged, must be anti-capitalist. It must be anti-algorithmic. We must break through the prison walls of capital's psychic warfare on our souls and into a new era.

Remember: No doomers. Uplift. Struggle."

The American 'Proletariat' Does Not Exist

The American 'working class' produce zero surplus value through their net nonproductive labor and physically cannot sustain themselves due to deindustrialization. Each and every single lumpen settler owes more than forty trillion in exports to repay their debt to the rest of the planet and survives off the surplus labor of non-americans from Berlin to Siberia. Even ignoring the countless acts of terrorism committed by the burgereich, the consumerism of treats must end. As the pedotariat of epsteinland must work for several years and export to maybe repay even 30 percent of what occupied turtle island owes to the non-american surplus value producing global proletariat.

Any strawman that does not address the largest trade deficit that will ever exist shall be ignored.

Destroy capitalism and replace oil with hemp. No more need for petroleum based plastics, papers, toilet papers, foam, cardboard, COVID masks and other materials and hempseed oil can power a G20 diesel engine (like a BMW G series) if you ran it carbon negative with biochar and ethanol transesterification and a mechanical manual oil presser for the seeds. You can make hemp biodiesel this way. Will need to mix in lye and other ingredients. Could also be carnon neutral if you used methanol. Only difference is carbon neutral releases no carbon into the atmosphere, carbon negative absorbs carbon from the atmosphere - could cause global cooling and Ice Age if this were as widespread as petroleum engines.

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.

Sakaism, ethnic reductionism and mutipolar theory are now the mainstream opinion of the Western Left. There are divisions between them of course.

HoI4 + HoI4 modding thread

Operation Deep Sneed edition

Made a new thread since the other one is full. You know the drill folks, gather here to discuss and/or complain about Hearts of Iron 4 and all the alt history mods that make the game relevant. From green natpops to sicko mode Savinkov we've got a lot of exciting stuff coming in the next Kaiserreich update, one which will make the LKMT look like pre-rework Germany by comparison. But dont worry TNOomers, you're getting some new content too! After a year and a half and three focus trees that only last for four years, we finally have something new and that's…

Why hasn’t Trump gone after Nicaragua yet?

Trump kidnapped Maduro and is now starving Cuba, why hasn’t he gone after Nicaragua? I hear people speculate that Ortega is a cuck and not a real socialist and probably made a deal to sell out Cuba in exchange for not getting sanctioned. But I think that Trump heard that Ortega would ejaculate all over his step daughter in the 90s and Trump probably thinks that is relatable so he gave him a pass.

Abolish the Family

Instead of calling to "abolish the family", we should promote single-parent families which inherently rely on consuming socialized production of goods and services more than multi-parent families. Single-parent families drive up demand, are more profitable and develop the productive forces.

Alpha Omega Research Foundation

During the 80s and 90s in Florida's Palm Beach, Donald Trump was neighbors with a New Age physics "research" non-profit called Alpha Omega Research Foundation.

Investigation of Alpha Omega Research Foundation indicates that it was a cut-out for interests related to Western Goals Foundation, Roy Cohn, American Security Council, Mercantile Bank and Trust (CIA-connected offshore bank). It seemed to be performing some kind of role to monitor or infiltrate activity around the University of Miami Center for Theoretical Studies and the Coral Gables physics and nuclear energy conferences, on behalf of private military-industrial intelligence networks.

What’s something that a Cis-Het-Person should never say to a queer person?

What is something that a Cis-Het-Moid like myself or any non-queer person for that matter should never say to a queer person? I’m not talking about slurs or hate-speech because that’s goes without saying, I’m talking about something that doesn’t have bad intentions behind it like a bad joke, Like for example a hetero man saying “Wow me too!” After a lesbian tells him that she is attracted to Women or an uneducated question Like someone asking a trans woman “When did you decide to stop being a man? also I am aware that most of this is personal preference.

Long-hidden ruins of vast network of Maya cities could recast history
<In Guatemala, scientists map well-organized network of 417 cities dating to circa 1000 B.C.

>Beneath 1,350 square miles of dense jungle in northern Guatemala, scientists have discovered 417 cities that date back to circa 1000 B.C. and that are connected by nearly 110 miles of “superhighways” — a network of what researchers called “the first freeway system in the world.”


>Scientist say this extensive road-and-city network, along with sophisticated ceremonial complexes, hydraulic systems and agricultural infrastructure, suggests that the ancient Maya civilization, which stretched through what is now Central America, was far more advanced than previously thought.


>Mapping the area since 2015 using lidar technology — an advanced type of radar that reveals things hidden by dense vegetation and the tree canopy — researchers have found what they say is evidence of a well-organized economic, political and social system operating some two millennia ago.


>The discovery is sparking a rethinking of the accepted idea that the people of the mid- to late-Preclassic Maya civilization (1000 B.C. to A.D. 250) would have been only hunter-gatherers, “roving bands of nomads, planting corn,” says Richard Hansen, the lead author of a study about the finding that was published in January and an affiliate research professor of archaeology at the University of Idaho.

Graham Hancock - absolved
His detractors - BTFO

You may begin your posts by admitting you were wrong to trust liberal scientists and the ideology-laden "science" that aims to maintain the status quo, rather than advance humanity. I'm not angry, or here to gloat, I am just happy that now we can finally move on and start discussing the implications of "civilisation" being much older than we think. How does this affect Historical Materialism? (my position, as explained extensively and in-depth in the last thread, is that it actually makes HistMat a more robust theory) Graham Hancock is a self-proclaimed socialist

The last effortpost thread, full of academic sources, logic, reasoning, good arguments, was moved to /siberia/ as to kill it. It seems I didn't save it on this computer, but I know for sure I saved it. I will find it, I promise you that.

Anyone ever notice how unfeminine most transwomen are in their demeanor and hobbies and etc.? I swear the average cis gay man is more feminine than the average transwoman by miles. Every transwoman I've ever met is into the most masculine and male-coded interests out there. Guns, mechas, engineering, combat sports, etc. And just their entire personality and demeanor are so much less feminine than the average cis gay man. What causes this?

MARXIST-LENINIST GENERAL
Founder's Edition
Esteemed comrades, revolutionary greetings.
This is a thread for Marxist-Leninist to talk among Marxist-Leninists. By that, we mean actual, real, complete Marxist-Leninists, not those who appropriate the heritage of Marxism-Leninism, but then proceed to denounce Lenin and Stalin from anarchist, left-deviationist and right-deviationist positions. Be not afraid to mercilessly bully the trotskyist, the leftcommunist, the anarchist, the social democrat and all the other saboteurs and lackeys of imperialism.

preventing circular arguments

third world proletarians, the most exploited on earth, regularly ask why 1st world proletarians don't do more. why don't they rebel? why don't they have revolutions? why have the first world proletariat not lifted a finger against their governments? the conclusion is treatlerism. they are willing and gleeful collaborators who benefit from plunder and so have become a "bourgeois proletariat" (engels said this about english workers in the late 19th century) fine. but it is a futile effort to ask someone who supposedly benefits from imperialism to fight it. they are your oppressor. do not beg your oppressor to stop oppressing you. that's naive cuckoldry at best. the next question then becomes, why do the third world proletariat not destroy the first world? the answer is they are too weak. they lack sovereignty. they don't have nukes. the imperial core sanctions, coups, embargoes, invades, bombs them every time they try to rise up. the only one brave enough to rise up seem to be the hyper religious ones who have no interest in communism, and they tend to get destroyed because they don't have a materialist understanding and just vibe based on the idea that god will give them the strength to win against impossible odds. not good… ok so what we have is a pretty bleak situation. the 1st world proletariat won't revolt because they benefit, and the 3rd world proletariat can't revolt because they're weak. What is left? bernsteinism? thinking capitalism will destroy itself if you wait long enough? embracing climate collapse and post apocalyptic scavenger theses? well that's anticommunist and opportunist. anprim ideology?

we have to get to the root here. i'm sick of the circular arguments where third worlders/worldists beg treatlers to stop being treatlers , and treatlers antagonize third worlders and tell them to win against impossible odds without any help from within the belly of the beast?

certain posters on here like felix says you need a crisis in the imperial core that accelerates economic collapse to create conditions for proletarian revolution. but nobody wants to go around blowing up power stations on the off chance it makes a lobotomized population of reactionaries who can't even point to iran or ukraine on a map suddenly pick up guns and attack the imperial core superpower.

what is the solution? how do you get around questions of nuclear armageddon, 1st world apathy, 3rd world weakness, 2nd world opportunism, religious idealism, and climate collapse? Is there a solution at all?

Why do people still support Trump?

According to CNN (If you can trust them) only 38% of Americans support Trump, that is small compared to the majority but that still means that 129 Million people support Trump after everything. And I genuinely don’t know how, because there are many rich country-club republicans who support him and it makes sense for them by why rural Appalachian farmers support him?!?! And they don’t just support him, they would literally die for this man, they are hive-minded-cattle, many boomers literally don’t speak to their children who don’t support Trump. I don’t even think similar populist strong-men like Putin have supporters like this (Correct me if I’m wrong). Like maybe you could say that Mao, Castro, Tito, Nasser, or Kim Il-Sung had ride or die supporters like this but that makes sense because they improved the lives of their people, Trump has not improved the lives of the working people at all, like what does a rural, Appalachian, Gen X, farmer get out of supporting Trump? Trump just made this hypothetical person unable to go to a nearby hospital, unable to by affordable gas or fertilizer, and in his first term Trump killed his mom with Covid.
I know that many will reply “They’re stupid don’t try to dissect it” but I will anyways.
First of all for decades the Republican Party and even the Democratic Party has gutted education in order to make these people stupid.
Second of all whenever something is bad Trump gives them an explanation weather it be Brown people, trans people, or Chyna, it is bullshit but democrats which are the only other option and they don’t provide any explanation, and since they are uneducated and lack critical thinking skills they buy Trumps shit.
Third of all the rural working class is deeply evangelical and in their culture they teach their kids to look up to their abusive fathers so as adults these KKKhristians imprint on Trump.
Fourth of all Trump is a Slopulist and he larps as Anti-Elitist during his elections by calling out lobbyists and industrial complexes but goes back on it when he is back in office.
Fifth of all, boomers are stuck-up and don’t want to admit when they have been bamboozled so they think that they have no choice but to keep supporting him.
Sixth of all, culturally among suburban liberals they are taught to be respectful to others with different political views while rural conservatives are taught the opposite so no one ever wants to slap someone shit into these people.

This shit is some of the most ludicrous, hyperbolic grievance mongering I have ever read. There's interesting shit floating around in here, but it is drifting in a sea of "every man is a wife-beating rapist who caused all the world's problems." Even though the book is directly comparing Zionism and feminism and seems to advocate for a lady Israel, it's mostly just couched in whining about men. Dworkin doesn't even have the fucking stones to be a strong Zionist. She's one of these wishy-washy Zionists who thinks that Zionists and Palestinians can co-exist, and maybe one day Israeli and Palestinian women can come together and unite against their REAL enemy: men!

how to effectively fight transmisoginy in gnc spaces?

I legitimately think Blanchardism it's the ecquivalent of a nuclear bomb in the trans ecosphere.

a rust stain in an already slow mechanism.

we can't literally brush it off without hurting and we can't ignore it without it spreading like a cancer.

if we decide to not talk about it it generates doubt, it makes us look afraid of it, almost like we're hiding something.

if we talk about it it hurts also, we know it's there just to hurt, but it's already there and ignoring it would make as much damage as looking at it too much.

>inb4 it doesn't matter

<it shouldn't

but it has already corroded what little mechanisms we had in place and sometimes it makes you think if it's a mechanism worth even saving over just making a new one.

saving our already corroded ammo and replacing the old lead slugs with new jacketed points.

and making sure our new system even if it uses old production molds in this trying time it's able to create a doctrine that withstands time and pressure.

if this sounds too schizo is because my consciousness is currently working on the background and i'm just writing shit for the sake of writing shit

Cockshott & the T

You know that Cockshott article?
Cockshott, P. (2020). Class, Demography, and Gay Politics in the West. World Review of Political Economy, 11(1).
and his writings on gays being more likely to have petty bourgeois class interests due to household income disparities?

I don't wholly agree with him, and there are several critiques of his paper to be made – e. g. his neglect of finer stratification within the 'LGBT movement', his making no attempt to account for confounding variables (which research into the economics of gender and sexuality is fraught with), his bold acceptance of income as a proxy of class – but it seems to me that his analysis can be extrapolated well to cover some aspects of transhumanistdom (which he seems to completely gloss over in his work).

If we apply his analysis to transhumanists, we will find that they rank below all other gender groups in come; moreover, in the case of transsexuals, they incur additional medical costs throughout their lives while being very commonly cut off from traditional familial economic support. Therefore, they are expected to be less likely to espouse petty bourgeois class interests, transgender women especially so. We see exactly that in the high rates of radicalization among them; we also see that lesbians are the most eager allies to transhumanists among cis people, which aligns with Cockshott's identification of them as the more progressive of the LG. This analysis can also be leveraged to explain the lower political mobilization of transgender men vs. women, the neoliberal co-optation of transgenderism vs. transsexualism etc., but that's stepping into the territory of lacking data and/or unquantifiable metrics.

I suppose that makes transhumanists the proletarians of gender….. or perhaps the lumpen

please tell me if this is silly or if i happened to misunderstand Cockshott

China to Enshrine Xi-Era Ethnic Policy in New Law

>Next week, China’s National People’s Congress (NPC) is expected to adopt a Law on Promoting Ethnic Unity and Progress (Law) [民族团结进步促进法]—designed to codify General Secretary Xi Jinping’s new orthodoxy for governing China’s ethnic minorities. That doctrine, known as the “Important Thinking on Improving and Strengthening Ethnic Work,” reflects the “Second-Generation Ethnic Policies” promoted by several prominent scholars. In a nutshell, this new “assimilationist” approach aims “not just to strengthen citizens’ sense of belonging to a larger, unified Chinese nation under the Party but also to mute expression of other—in the Party’s view, competing—identities.”

>Xi’s “Important Thinking” canonically consists of a dozen requirements, or “Twelve Musts” [十二个必须]. Echoing the scholarly proposals, these include prioritizing “forging a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation [or Zhonghua minzu]” [铸牢中华民族共同体意识], “building a shared spiritual home,” and “promoting extensive interactions, interchanges, and intermingling [交往交流交融] among different ethnic groups.” The doctrine also views ethnic issues through a securitized lens, emphasizing the duty of all ethnic groups to “consciously safeguard national unity, national security, and social stability.”


>Xi’s ethnic policy, moreover, calls for “correctly grasping” “Four Pairs of Relationships” [四对关系]—a concept that the Law’s drafters expressly invoke. One relationship concerns the hierarchy between the Han-centric Zhonghua culture and various ethnic cultures: the former is the “trunk [or backbone],” while the latter are subordinate to it, likened to “branches and leaves.” “Only when the roots are deep and the trunk is strong can the branches and leaves flourish,” Xi said in a seminal 2021 speech on ethnic governance.


>The Law is envisioned as “a comprehensive and fundamental law in the field of ethnic work.” Like statutes of this nature, it primarily contains general policy statements and imposes broad obligations on a wide array of state and private actors, with few enforceable rules. But it should not be dismissed as merely symbolic. The Law would legitimize and entrench Xi’s new doctrine by placing it on a firm legal footing. And, precisely because of its open-textured policy goals, it would supply a capacious statutory basis—à la the 2015 National Security Law [国家安全法]—for all official actions that broadly align with those goals.


>The Law’s high-profile legislative journey demonstrates its importance. The Communist Party expressly called for its enactment in the 2024 Third Plenum Decision. Last August, the Party revealed that the full Politburo had discussed a draft of the Law—the first such disclosure in almost four decades. In December, the NPC Standing Committee decided to refer the bill to the NPC on the ground that it qualifies as a “basic statute” [基本法律] on ethnic affairs that constitutionally must be approved by the full legislature.


>The Law’s political salience is also evident in two atypical features. First, it begins with a rare narrative preamble of over 800 characters. Only three statutes now include a preamble: the closely related Regional Ethnic Autonomy Law [民族区域自治法] and the Basic Laws of Hong Kong and Macao. Second, the Law uses Party-speak drawn from the “Twelve Musts” as the headings of three core chapters (II–IV): “Building a Shared Spiritual Home,” “Facilitating Interactions, Interchanges, and Intermingling,” and “Promoting Common Prosperity and Development.” Far from being descriptive and dry, as headings typically are, they incorporate key prongs of Xi’s doctrine and organize the Law around them.


>Finally, we briefly summarize the latest draft that NPC delegates received on March 5. This post will be updated after the Law’s final text is released.


The preamble presents the orthodox narrative that China’s various ethnic groups, through five millennia of shared history, have created a “unified multiethnic state”—“a community of common destiny bound by intertwined bloodlines, common beliefs, cultural similarities, economic interdependence, and close emotional ties”; and that, despite periods of foreign aggression after 1840, they have successfully preserved their civilization (para. 1).

>Later, the Communist Party, as the “vanguard of the Chinese people and the Zhonghua minzu,” led all ethnic groups in achieving independence and equality, charting “a correct path with Chinese characteristics for addressing ethnic issues” (para. 2). That approach has evolved into the Party’s “Important Thinking on Improving and Strengthening Ethnic Work,” under which its “main task” is to forge “a sense of community for the Chinese nation” [中华民族共同体意识]—a term that subsequently appears no fewer than 30 times in the Law (id.).


>The preamble concludes by calling on all citizens and institutions, state and private, to fulfill their shared obligations to “forge a sense of community for the Chinese nation” and to develop that community (para. 3).


>Chapters I and V set forth the organizational structure and overarching principles of ethnic governance. The Law affirms the Party’s “comprehensive leadership” over efforts to advance ethnic unity and progress (art. 2). Underneath it, the Party’s United Front Work Department and the National Ethnic Affairs Commission—the latter has been reporting to the former since 2018—are responsible for coordinating and supervising the implementation of the Party’s new ethnic policy (art. 41, para. 2).


>The Law declares “a sense of community for the Chinese nation” to be “the foundation of ethnic unity” (art. 6). It mobilizes the whole of government and society to achieve assimilationist goals, imposing general obligations on a wide range of public and private actors, including public employees, mass organizations, enterprises, public-service institutions, industry groups, religious institutions, neighborhood committees, and the military (arts. 42–48).


>Chapter II (Building a Shared Spiritual Home)lays the ideological foundation for the assimilation project. It affirms the policy of fostering identification with “the great motherland, the Chinese nation, Chinese culture, the Communist Party of China, and socialism with Chinese characteristics” through patriotic education, education in official historical narratives, publicity of “the fine Zhonghua traditional culture,” and promotion of “Chinese cultural symbols and image of the Chinese nation” (arts. 11–14).


>This Chapter then affords language and education particular attention. It incorporates the relevant rules of the newly revised Law on the Standard Spoken and Written Chinese Language [国家通用语言文字法], but often goes beyond them. For instance, it codifies the goal of having preschoolers become proficient in Putonghua and requires that Chinese characters be displayed more prominently than minority scripts if both must be used in public (art. 15, paras. 2, 4). It also tasks the education and ethnic affairs ministries with developing textbooks on “the community of the Chinese nation,” while requiring all schools to integrate that concept into their curricula (art. 16, paras. 1–2; art. 18, para. 1). This Chapter does vow to support the standardization, digitization, and preservation of minority texts (art. 15, para. 5), but the goal of such investment is to “protect languages from being completely forgotten rather than protecting their ongoing, everyday use by living people.”


>Finally, this Chapter broadly requires media, internet service providers, families, among others, to promote the Party’s ethnic policy (arts. 19–21). Parents are reminded of their duty to provide lawful family education and are prohibited from “instilling in minors ideas detrimental to ethnic unity and progress” (art. 20, para. 2).


>Chapter III (Facilitating Interactions, Interchanges, and Intermingling) aims to further social and spatial integration. It sets forth the overall governmental obligation to develop “inter-embedded community environments” [互嵌式社区环境] so that different ethnic groups can “live, study, build, share, work, and enjoy together” (art. 22). Toward that goal, local governments must strive to “forge a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation” and promote integration in all aspects of urban planning and governance (art. 23). Specifically, they are directed to implement policies to facilitate cross-regional population movement, employment, student enrollment, and teacher and youth exchanges (arts. 24–27).


>In addition, this Chapter instructs state authorities to promote integration by supporting—and shaping—volunteer services, cultural institutions (libraries, museums, etc.), the tourism industry, and modern technologies and online media (arts. 28–31). It reiterates internet service providers’ legal obligations to promptly stop the transmission of “information containing ethnic hatred, ethnic discrimination, or other content that undermines ethnic unity and progress.” (art. 31).


>Chapter IV (Promoting Common Prosperity and Development) focuses on integrating ethnic and border areas into national economic and security priorities. It requires all economic and social policies to further assimilationist objectives, to improve people’s lives and build popular support—and to help safeguard national unity and fight against separatism (art. 33). It emphasizes the “mission and responsibility” of ethnic areas to safeguard the nation’s “border security, resource and energy security, food security, and ecological security” (art. 34, para. 2). It also lays out general mandates for the relevant central and local authorities to improve infrastructure connectivity, develop appropriate local industries and agriculture, equalize public services, and strengthen environmental protection (arts. 35–38).


>This Chapter ends by pivoting to “civic and moral development” (art. 40). In the name of development, it announces the policy of “transforming outdated customs and traditions” [移风易俗] and “promoting a new culture of civility and progress” (id.). This provision appears to reflect the common stereotype that all ethnic minorities are “backward” and to curtail their distinctive cultural and religious practices.


>Chapters V and VI both touch on the Law’s enforcement mechanisms. It permits citizens to report conduct that “undermines ethnic unity and progress” and to lodge complaints against government agencies and employees who fail to discharge their obligations under the Law (art. 54, para. 1). When any such conduct also “undermines national interests or the public interest,” procuratorates may initiate public interest litigation (id. para. 2).


>Beyond generic provisions directing the competent authorities to stop violations and order corrections, and in some cases to issue warnings or notices of criticism, the Law by itself does not prescribe any meaningful punishments. Rather, it leaves penalties to be imposed under other applicable laws (arts. 57–62). For instance, inciting ethnic hatred or discrimination is punishable, depending on the severity, by up to 15 days of detention under the public-order offenses law, or up to 10 years in prison under the criminal code.


>Finally, the Law asserts jurisdiction over foreign organizations or individuals who “commit acts targeting the PRC that undermine ethnic unity and progress or create ethnic division” (art. 63).

MENACE

A great tactical turn based strategy game in early access. There's a free demo too. Jagged alliance vibes but in the future and with entire squads and vehicles instead of individual characters. I'm having a lot of fun, lots of customization and options, there's a "supply" system which limit the amount of what you can bring but a lot of flexibility in the builds, and some campaign wide mechanics and resources (trust with different factions, off map calls-in like missile strikes, manpower reserves) and some random event for flavor. At least 3-4 different enemies factions for now.
Squad leaders have skill trees and voice acting with personality.

>During the Great Leap Forward (1958–1962), Chinese leader Mao Zedong launched radical agricultural policies including the Four Pests Campaign.

>The campaign ordered the mass killing of sparrows, rats, flies, and mosquitoes, and eliminating sparrows disrupted ecosystems and contributed to massive locust outbreaks that worsened crop failures.


>The resulting famine—known as the Great Chinese Famine—killed an estimated 15–45 million people, making it one of the deadliest human-made disasters in history.

On "Treatlerites"

"Treatlers" don't exist, the amount of people that worship consuming commodities on a daily basis sand also consciously vote for right wing politicians just to keep this sort of behaviour is basically zero.

The first issue with the term is that it's just a lefty version of the Tedd Kaczinsky anti-consumption ideology, which in itself is an idealist and reactionary understanding of society.

Second, it implies that people vote for better economic conditions because the are "fascists", when the vast majority of votes are actually "punish" votes, where people vote for the opposition party to punish the party in power.

Third, it implies that fascism can be voted into power, and therefore, anti-fascisn can also be voted into power, which is utterly stupid, as communism can't arise from bourgeois electoralism

Basically anyone that uses the term should be automatically ignored.

Western Marxism

The West (NA and Western Europe) have been by far the most advanced capitalist countries for a long time, but
(i) there has been no socialist seizure of power
(ii) for western european countries, they had a significant communist movement when it was backed by the USSR. After the latter's fall, they disintegrated
(iii) for the anglosphere, there never was a significant communist movement at all

So, what is the materialist explanation for this? According to a simple, straighforward Marxist logic, these countries should have the most developped proletariat and thus should be leading in terms of 'socialist experiments'. These countries have had many 'Marxist intellectuals', famous internationally recognised ones. And yet, one struggles to see a movement emanating from them. From the Western proletariat, we get absolute nothingness. From the Western 'Marxist intellectuals', we just get endless bitching about how Stalin and the USSR was bad.
Is there something lacking in the conventional understanding of class struggle?
While I do not agree with the 'civilisational' arguments, does history show us that there is something about 'Western civilisation' which is less conducive to socialism/communism? (On this issue, I am relating to chud-fash narratives, but rather Emmanuel Todd's study on family structures of different demographics for example, which he argues played a role in the development of socialist regimes in the East and not the West).
Leftypolaks, discuss. I want to be enriched.

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.

New Comminques from the People's Liberation Army of Burma, armed wing of the Burmese Communist Party:



"Celebrating the Fifth Anniversary of the Rebirth of the People's Liberation Army-PLA" Message from the New Democracy Group

To all PLA commanders and soldiers:
(15-3-2026) marks the fifth anniversary of the rebirth of the PLA.
Our letter and message have two main meanings.
  1. Congratulation 2. Encouragement.

  2. Congratulation
(A) First of all, we would like to congratulate the PLA People's Liberation Army for its strength and ability to rise from the flames like a phoenix.
The current PLA was reborn in 2021 from the People's Liberation Army of 1948-1949. In 1967, the party and army at the Bago Yoma Base were surrounded and massacred by the enemy military group. On March 15, 1975, the party's highest leader, Chairman Thakin Zin, and Secretary Thakin Chit were killed. The party and army were thought to be dead. However, the Party and the army stood firm in the Northeast Military Region in 1967-1968. In 1989, the enemy military regime used a bloodless division within the Party and the army to disintegrate the Party and the army, using ethnic nationalist forces to crush and kill them. They even widely propagated that the Communist Party and the army no longer existed. However, the PLA was reborn in the 2021 People's Armed Revolution.



  • The PLA was reborn in the 2021 People's Tide Movement.
  • The PLA was reborn as part of the long-standing efforts of the Communist Party of Burma to rebirth.
  • It is also the result of the noble contributions made by the strong leaders and comrades who have made great efforts despite all the difficulties to reestablish the PLA.
  • The PLA was not only born alive but also gradually developed strongly due to the unity of the working class and peasants, students, the urban poor and middle class, the emerging bourgeoisie and the revolutionary national capitalists.
Comrades - The PLA is like a rock that has been eroded by the waves of the sea and has stood firm against the enemy's attacks.

(b) I congratulate the PLA's spirit of independence during the past five years.

Political and ideological independence.
The Party and the PLA are not under the political influence of any other country. They have demonstrated in practice that they are an independent and self-reliant force under the direct and absolute leadership of the Communist Party of Burma. They are a party and a force that independently set their own path and policies and walk forward.

Economic Independence
The PLA is not supported by any foreign country. It has never received a single penny of aid from foreign governments. In 1948-1949, the PLA had to feed its soldiers with bowls and baskets from the people in the Kyaukse market. Today, the PLA is a force that relies on the people and relies on the people. The people in the country donate their hard-earned money to the PLA every month. Overseas workers donate their wages to the PLA every month. The new generation of the party's young people have collected whatever they have earned abroad and at home and donated it to the PLA. In the countryside, the people donate rice and vegetables to the PLA. The people are the PLA's main supporter. Without the people, the PLA would not exist. Similarly, the PLA also adheres to the slogan that every step of the PLA is for the benefit of the oppressed people.

(c) We must sincerely honor the PLA's spirit of sacrificing their lives for the benefit of the people.
  • In 2021, Comrade Aung Ba Nyo, also known as Comrade Hnin Aung, the political commander of the PLA No. 1 Military Region, sacrificed his life for the benefit of the people on (3-12-2021).
  • During the 1027 Operation in northeastern Myanmar, 12 heroic martyrs lost their lives in the battle to capture Sinni. Many of them lost their limbs and were injured.
  • During the siege and attack on the No. 13 Military Academy (Corporal Academy) strongly defended by the enemy coup army in Moe Mai Gwin (Khon) for almost a year, 6 or more PLA comrades were killed and many were injured. There were other comrades who fell fighting the enemy in the rain.
  • Comrade Aung Thura (Comrade Htun Naing) was killed in the battle of Phalan O village, west of Pakokku, Magway Division. There were 2 other comrades who fell in Magway Division.

  • In the battle to capture the enemy camp in Kandaung, Pearl, 12 PLA comrades lost their lives. 67 were injured. 9 comrades lost their limbs. (In the past five years, 17 comrades from the PLA Northwest Military Region have lost their lives.)
With these comrades… in the No. (1) Military Region of Sagaing Region, in the battles of Moe Meik and Dwin Nga, in the battles of Welang Taung Thar, and in Mattara Township, the PLA comrades who gave their lives and served the people are martyrs who will always be in our hearts. Let us all bow down and honor the heroic spirit of these martyred comrades who died.

(d) Honoring the PLA's self-sacrificing political consciousness for the people's good during the past five years.
During the past five years, the PLA has also attached great importance to political construction in building the army from all sides. Comrades train hard in the military training course during the day and tirelessly in the political training course at night. During the five years of continuous training at the Party Central Training School, comrades have repeatedly attended and studied hard. Therefore, the PLA has become a relatively politically capable army.

Why Leftism is dangerous and not just stupid or annoying

This is an educational post aimed at Leftcoms only, so Leftists can just ignore it and go away.

Many Leftcoms think that Leftists are just stupid and misguided, and that eventually they can be "converted" via education or being shown to be wrong via real world events. This is an extremely misguided and dangerous thought.

Most Leftists are not stupid and misguided. Rather, they are intelligent Nationalists who maliciously, consciously and successfully divert anti-capitalist and anti-imperialist energies into generating support for whatever their favorite nation/ethnicity/ideology is.

Leftists are fundamentally pro-capitalist and pro-narionalist. If any real worker revolution or revolt occurs, leftists will arise to co-opt those groups and neutralize them and fold them back into their specific nationalist program and political economy.

Most importantly, if any real communist person or group attempts to prevent this co-option, leftists will kill, arrest or exile those communists.

Leftists, being the left wing of capital, should therefore not be understood as merely misguided or dumb, but they are an active and dangerous military threat to all communists, militant workers and proletarian revolutionaries.

If Leftcoms continue to follow the mental path of "haha Leftists are just dumb and they'll fall in line once reality hits" then they themselves will follow the same path as those communists who were slaughtered by Stalinists.

For a communist revolution to be succesful, there must be an armed struggle not just against the existing capitalists and reactionaries, but also against leftists as well.

/ayyleavemealone/ Alien Abduction General

Were you abducted by aliens? What kind of aliens? What did they do to you? What are your expectations for disclosure? What would you do if they gave you the keys to the spaceship? How would you rate your abduction experience out of ten stars?

Me:
>abducted by the greys
>they drugged me on Ativan (I've been given it enough times to recognize the feeling) and harvested my sperm
>the morning after this abduction I found out my ex was pregnant with my child
>child was born with a heart defect and died before she was two

My opinion on disclosure: There's a truth to the theory that they're hiding the truth about aliens because people would have an immediate "we have to kill them all" reaction. My story isn't uncommon, this is the kind of shit everyone who gets abducted by the greys goes through. If there are other species of aliens, they aren't stopping the greys, so they're all our enemies as far as I'm concerned. I don't care if they gave us the tech for the internet or whatever, if they needed my sperm to save their species or something, they could have fuckin' asked. If they abduct me again I'm fighting through the hypnotics and crashing that bitch of a ship into their own fleet.

I Want to Leave the Right

Going out on a real limb here and being genuine.
I've got a really long history I'm not gonna Dear Diary about, but I've been around a bit.
Even though I was part of various groups that are Alt-Right I have always had various Left-of-Center beliefs. I felt like I was the only one that understood the
>socialist
aspects of various camps for a while.
Just generally after 18-something years, I'm tired of this crap. These are some of the most useless, in-fighting, bought-out, dogshit people I have ever dealt with
>and I've been to prison so I have a wide berth of experience with shit people
and I want off the fucking ride.
I can't say I don't believe in some
>"Right-of-Center"
things and I feel like they're hard-coded and baked into me. Some aspects I don't fully buy into, but I don't feel like walking away from because I don't necessarily feel like they are not incompatible to me with various aspects of Leftism.
>Southern Nationalism probably being the biggest example
>A few religious beliefs
I actually have read lots of Leftist literature like Marx and Engels and a few others. Maybe they aren't really
>Leftist
but I guess maybe it goes in that direction, more like, "cLaSsIcAl LiBeRaLiSm" idk.
My life has changed in the last few years. I'm disconnected from everything. I want to just move on from these losers. I hate to say it but if they were the people they LARP'd as I like to think I'd still be one of them.
But they're not; they're all dogshit losers.
I've always had this, "Fly-on-the-Wall," thing where I can float around places and get along. I like sincerity, I like conviction. I don't necessarily care how crazy it is sometimes, just be real - be honest. I've had lots of Leftist friends and eventually many of my beliefs have cost me them. At the same time almost none of my
>"Right-Wing"
friends have stuck around.
I think this has all be a rambling mess
Hopefully I get a good conversation out of this. I guess I'm looking for direction, someone with a similar story.

Where is the best Latin American country to visit as an Amerikkkan?

(I guess this also applies to many non-Latin American countries in the Caribbean and the The Guianas but you get the point)
My parents were saying that this Christmas we should go on a vacation to Mexico, my dad actually once went to Mexico before and he didn't like it for some reason so why parents said that any warm country in the Americas could work. I was exited but also concerned because I know how in Hawaii the local people hate tourism because all of the Airbnbs and Resorts are owned by rich white guys on the mainland so tourism there is inherently exploitative, so I was wondering which countries are and aren't like that in Latin America.
