”The proletariat, on the contrary, is compelled as proletariat to abolish itself and thereby its opposite, private property, which determines its existence, and which makes it proletariat. It is the negative side of the antithesis, its restlessness within its very self, dissolved and self-dissolving private property. Within this antithesis the private property-owner is therefore the conservative side, the proletarian the destructive side. From the former arises the action of preserving the antithesis, from the latter the action of annihilating it.” - Marx, The Holy Family.

The question basically comes down to what side the soldiers stand on in the partisan struggle; the veterans in the PSL who oppose the American empire's militarism are good, while the ones that do the ZOG and NATO bot patrols and similar warmongerism are counterrevolutionary, but in any case make the distinction of politics very obvious so that there isn't confusion. This isn't even just about government people. The purported conservativist rightist that supports reduction of American military operation internationally is more productive than the democratic socialist that declares that the PoC people of the world must have Western LGBTQ ideology forced at gunpoint by the Americans' military.

Daimler Truck reaches deal with United Auto Workers, averts U.S. strike
Under Friday’s deal, Daimler Truck workers will receive a minimum 25% general wage increase over the four-year contract, Fain said. That would match what workers at the Detroit Three received. When the deal is ratified, Fain said members will receive an immediate 10% pay raise, followed by 3% increases six months and 12 months later. They also will receive cost-of-living adjustments to offset inflation and profit-sharing, both for the first time at Daimler Truck, as well as the end of wage tiers that paid those building buses less than those building heavy trucks, he said.

Interview with TKP-ML Central Committee Political Bureau Member: “Our Party Will Continue Its War Against Fascism With Determination In Its 53rd Year Of Struggle”
– Founded on April 24, 1972, your party is leaving behind its 52nd year of struggle. On this occasion, we would like to interview you on behalf of your party. Before moving on to my questions, what would you like to say about this first? – Yes, it is easy to say that we have left behind half a century of struggle. Although this is a short period of time in terms of the struggle of societies and classes, it is also a very long period of time. We respectfully bow to the lives and memories of all our comrades, especially İbrahim Kaypakkaya, the founding leader of our party, Ali Haydar Yıldız, the first immortal of our people’s army, and Meral Yakar, the first immortal of our communist women’s organization, who became stars in these 52 years. I would also like to express our feelings of gratitude for the efforts of hundreds and thousands of our comrades who have been veterans, imprisoned and tortured in this costly struggle of more than half a century. We salute the militants of our party, our people’s army, our communist women’s organization and our komsomol who are currently in struggle, especially in the geography of Turkey, who are imprisoned in prisons and resist against the torture of isolation and torture, and who are in all areas of struggle in the Middle East and Western Europe, and we celebrate their 53rd year of struggle. And we thank you for giving us this opportunity.

Culture is a process. It can't be "preserved" any more than you can preserve the flame of a struck match.

The only difference is that "culture preservation" isn't necessarily tied to nationalism. But both are pretty stupid as >>1837299 says, especially to a communist.

>>1837264
my grandfather was a farmer and as part of tradition he had to give a welshman some gold coins when he bought a pig. why should culture be preserved? how do you separate the good and the bad?

flag burners are the real patriots because they're the ones criticising the society in order to improve it. the patriots are the real degenerates destroying society because they support everything bad that society does and refuse to criticize society.

Pro-Palestine camps spread to 40 US campuses, with hundreds arrested
While many remain provocative though peaceful, demanding a ceasefire in Gaza and divestment by their institutions from companies with ties to Israel, hundreds of students and outside protesters have been arrested, and there have been some fierce clashes with police. At least 100 more students were arrested overnight into Friday, mostly at Emerson College in Boston, while two dozen were taken into custody at Ohio State University.

FCC votes to bring back Obama-era 'net neutrality' rules that were repealed under Trump
The vote means that broadband services will be treated as Title II telecommunications services, a category of federal law that originally referred to phone networks to ensure they were nondiscriminatory. It makes the internet closer to an essential service, like power or water. “Broadband access to the Internet is a critical conduit that is essential for modern life,” Anna Gomez, a Democratic appointee to the commission, said in a statement.

New York to require internet providers to charge low-income residents $15 for broadband
The decision from the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan reverses a lower court ruling from 2021 that blocked the policy just days before it went into effect. The law would force internet companies to give some low-income New Yorkers broadband service for as low as $15 a month, or face fines from the state.

The truth behind Labour’s plans to ‘renationalise’ rail
LABOUR’S plans to renationalise the rail firms by taking over the train operating companies (TOCs) as their contracts come to an end is a big deal. These are privately run but very heavily publicly subsidised companies that want to pump cash out of the government and passengers and then pump it into their investors’ hands. They are so keen to get the cash that they are rubbish at running the railways. Renationalising them is a good idea. But if you want to know how some rail privatisation will continue even after Labour’s plans — and how it will continue to squeeze private cash out of public services, it’s worth having a look at the annual accounts of Eversholt UK Rails Ltd, which were published to zero media interest at the end of last month. The newspapers weren’t interested in the company’s accounts, even though they showed the movement of millions of pounds from the taxpayer to a Hong Kong billionaire’s company. Passengers also won’t generally know Eversholt even exists, which is part of the trick of privatisation.

On April 22 workers at Volkswagen’s Tennessee plant voted to join the UAW, breaking the dam and pushing the UAW’s territory further south and outside of the Big Three.

Immigrant workers sue Minnesota vegetable farm for shorted pay, 'deplorable' conditions
The farm workers signed employment agreements calling for a workday of seven hours on weekdays and four hours on Saturdays, with Sundays off, the suit said. Any additional hours were to be considered overtime. But workers didn't get Sundays off, and they often toiled 17 hours a day or over 100 hours a week — without overtime pay, the suit alleges: "Paychecks did not reflect this and were regularly shorted by several hundred dollars."

We Will Not Forget or Forgive the Armenian Genocide! — Martyr Nubar Ozanyan Brigade
109 years ago, the hands of the Ottoman Turanists, ‘Union and Progress‘, were stained with the blood of the Armenian people, and today we see that Turkish fascism, the heir of the Ottoman Empire, is following the same policy and following in the footsteps of the Ottomans in terms of hostility to all peoples in the region. not content with the extermination of the Armenians in 1915, they committed thousands of crimes against the Kurdish, Arab, Assyrian and Assyrian peoples. Turkey‘s occupation of many areas in Northern and Eastern Syria such as Serekaniyeh, Afrin, Tal Abyad and displacing the population shows the extent of the criminality and brutality of this cruel regime, and Turkish fascism does not stop at this point, but attacks every day to target safe areas and terrorize them in order to displace the population. We must not lose sight of how Turkish fascism supported, financed and assisted the Azerbaijani state in its war against the Armenians of Artsakh, that it was the same people who killed the Armenian people in 1915 and the same people who killed the people of Artsakh in 2023, and that it is the same people who today occupy a large part of the territory of Northern and Eastern Syria and displaced its people, Arabs, Kurds, Armenians, Assyrians and Assyrians. Destruction is destruction, killing and displacement is destruction; maybe the time or the place changes, but the events are the same. What is being done today to the Palestinian people in terms of killing and deportation, and what is being done to the peoples of North-East Syria, the Armenian people in the mountains of Kurdistan and Artsakh; it is the same as what happened 109 years ago to the Armenian people.

Eight-minute excerpt from:

JASON SKEET (UK)
In search of the constructivist moment: from Russian Futurism to South London Speedcore (via 1975)"It's not freedom that I want but a way out!" So proclaimed the ape in Kafka's short story 'A Report to the Academy'. This talk takes this ape's proclamation as a reference point for the construction of a map that could be used to locate potential points of escape. The first part of this talk identifies what exactly it is that we may be seeking to escape from. We will then embark on an exploration of a series of problems, some of which may involve us asking: what is the meaning of Mayakovsky's "our''? what is a sonic community? and how exactly did the world change in 1975? Jason Skeet is currently completing a book about contemporary poetry. In the last years of the previous century he was involved in the Association of Autonomous Astronauts (AAA) and this talk may, or may not, build on a certain number of exit strategies previously put forward by the AAA.

Here are archives of most of their writings:
