>The cause of war is russia invading ukraine, simple as
The cause is regression in the imperialist countries that cannibalized bourgeois democracy under globalization. Russia is a mere deflection from this. The war with Russia is one with the American slide into a plutocratic police state leading an international system tightly controlling member stations, as seen lately in Moldova, and dictating to emergent countries outside of it. The regression was seen with the 2014 coup and 2021 NATOization of Ukraine, which demonstrated intent to achieve security of a militarized Europe at the expense of Ukraine's Russians in Crimea and Donbass. Russia sought to freeze the conflict including until the very end, when it was forced to partially mobilize and abandon Europe.

The US drove the crisis with its division of the world that subjected Ukraine's Russians to a hostile dictatorship targeting them as the obstacle to national revision. Don't base liberal democratic global power on reactionary foundations like ethnic supremacy and national division of a former socialist union and this won't happen. Putin demonstrated repeated willingness to work with liberalism where it manifested diplomatically in Obama and Merkel. Now he's just rubbing your face in the war you wanted with Russia all along by destroying the AFU.

Both the left and the right-wing of capital, liberals and conservatives, complain about cultural languages dying out. But it's not some pure past you can hang onto with pride, it's the result of how societies evolve through their economic and productive systems. There's nothing sacred about it and, frankly, the fewer languages acting as a barrier to a global proletariat the better. If you want to learn a dead language so much you can do it on your own time thanks to the internet these days.

Flattening/Abolishing the Reactionary Gender Binary by forcing all Women to have extremely short hair (Pixie cut or shorter), Banning Dresses/Skirts and Makeup/lipstick, replacing Reactionary “Natural” Childbirth with Artificial Wombs, and forcing everyone to wear Mao Suits (Capitalist Business suits are Banned as well), is extremely Historically Progressive as it will both liberate Women from the Reactionary Superstructural chains of Bourgeois Femininity/Domesticity, and dramatically reduce the rates of Gender Dysphoria, with the caveat that Sex Changes will be Free and Legal if you still really want one so it is the Dialectical opposite of Transphobia, and Flattening/Abolishing the Reactionary Gender Binary will simultaneously eliminate the Superstructural basis of Sexism, Transphobia, Homophobia, and Patriarchy, ✊😜🇨🇳🇰🇵🇨🇺🇵🇸🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🚀☢️!

there is no evidence that androgyny would work to alleviate gender dysphoria from transfems "dramatically" as you claim

the reality is it would just hurt those of us who need the expression for a feminine identity

Also what about trans girls who dont feel like they look like a girl with short hair

Communism is about planning production, not "managing the economy" or whatever the fuck. Planning production means consciously organizing production within the limits of resources and in harmony with nature, it's not the same as the economy. Many idiots assume that a "planned economy" must mean rule by managers, bureaucrats, or party bosses. But that assumption already shows they're still thinking within the categories of the society they claim to reject.

In capitalism economic life is centralized and dictated, by the ownership of property, by the command of money over labor, by the state that enforces all this. Nobody ever asked the workers whether they agreed to be "planned" as a cost factor in the balance sheet of capital. They've confused communism with the failed capitalist economy of the East. Their problem was that they wanted to beat capitalism at its own game, extracting as much labor out of their population as possible, and thus held on to the very exploitation they claimed to overcome.

Besides many treat communism like it's some utopian scheme cooked up by theorists about how society should be arranged. But communism is not that. It's not about electing a better government, or handing power to managers, bureaucrats, or party bosses to run your life, it's about the Proletariat taking matters into their own hands, abolishing the setup where somebody else dictates the terms. Communists don't offer like it's a product on the shelf.

The only real offer is simple: either you fight to run your life, or you stay ruled and exploited.

You are totally wrong. Building Communism without proletarian managers, executives, and Party leadership is impossible because the socialist enterprises (including industry, agriculture, communications and transportation, commerce, and all production and circulation departments) are the basic unit of human material production and exchange. Interpersonal relations in production exist in enterprises in large numbers. Interrelations among the laboring people are chiefly of two kinds: The relations between the leadership and the masses and the relations between the management personnel, technicians, and executives (mental laborers) on the one hand and the worker and the peasant (physical laborers) on the other. The correct handling of these two aspects of these relations, that is, to “create a political situation in which there is centralism as well as democracy, discipline as well as freedom, unified determination as well as individual happiness and vitality” (12), is an important issue in consolidating and developing socialist production relations and in improving socialist enterprise management. In enterprises, there are also the relations between the worker-peasant laboring people and the two exploitative classes. These relations have been analyzed above.

The socialist enterprise is an enterprise of the working class and the laboring people. The working class and the laboring people are responsible for leading the enterprise through their representatives. This gives rise to an issue of the relations between the leadership and the masses. Although the leadership personnel and the masses in the enterprise hold different jobs in revolution, they are “comrades-in-arms in the same trench” who share the heavy duty of properly managing the enterprise and who labor for a common revolutionary goal. Workers on the Shanghai wharfs put it nicely, “Though jobs are different in revolution, our thinking must be in unison.” These words pointed out the key to improving the relations between the leadership and the masses in the socialist enterprises.

In enterprises, it is also necessary to have soPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Bordiga, and the contemporary Italian communists in general, had this very slimy crypto-religious notion of communism that is painful to read. You can see exactly why their group, once detached from practical work owing to the Russian degeneration, became so semi-cultish. 1919: (first pic)

The whole stuff and nonsense about carrying the "legacy" of Marx and Lenin and the associated autist baggage that comes with it is closer to theology than science. I am reminded of Marx's comments on political sects and their religious character:

I don't care for the second part of your reply, but yes I do think it is about ideological comfort. It's the same as most kinds of anarchism and revisionism. Revolution stops being something you can actually do and instead is an abstract force of history which there's no point even working towards. Basically Menschevism. This means the adherents only have to believe in the right ideology, understand the world in the right way, and then they are spiritually fulfilled and can have meaning in their lives. It is literally a religion.

Madagascar president dissolves government amidst deadly protests
Protesters gathered at Antananarivo’s main university on Monday before attempting to march into the city centre, according to footage broadcast by the local television channel 2424.MG. Police fired tear gas to disperse the demonstrators, as authorities enforced a dusk-to-dawn curfew that has been in place since last week. Security forces have also used rubber bullets to try to clampdown on protesters.

Israeli troops kill at least 31 Palestinians in Gaza as Trump peace proposal raises questions
Hamas announced it would review the proposal with group members and other Palestinian factions before reaching a decision. While the proposal offers an end to the fighting, guarantees the flow of humanitarian aid and promises reconstruction, the Palestinian militant group will have to disarm, something it has rejected in the past. Also, Gaza and its more than 2 million Palestinians would be put under international control for the foreseeable future.

The Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), which has fought in the war alongside Hamas, voiced opposition to the plan. And the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine - General Command, a hardline leftist group, said it will "impose a formula of surrender on the resistance and our people". A Palestinian source close to Hamas told AFP on Tuesday that the group was reviewing the proposals.

Defy-ID: Against State Control (2005)
At the time I'm writing this, the corporate media is in full throttle with attempts to idolise the exiting Tony Blair. According to a piece propagandistically entitled 'Poll shows he will leave with voters’ respect’; "Mr Blair will be remembered as a force for change in Britain… by 60% of all voters”1 . Those who have been fighting against the current government’s massive campaign to centralise power and bring down repression on those who challenge it would certainly agree that Blair’s government was a force for change, Whilst anarchists recognise that this is a project of the state, not linked to any particular politician or party, it should be recognised that the current Labour government under Blair has been particularly successful in overturning all kinds of relative freedoms. Because Blair is particularly skilled at statecraft he has been able to present the state’s agenda in a way that cashes in on prejudices and ignorance already present. The current government has capitalised on terrorist attacks, socially-excluded youth, and even identity theft to create a climate of fear, in which the government may do as it wishes with the excuse that it is 'protecting’ the terrified masses. As anarchists have argued, the governments only vary in how successful they are in grabbing more power for themselves, and as long as there is a state we will have to defend our efforts towards a free society against it.

New Cuban Report Confirms US Blockade is War
Cuba’s foreign ministry on September 17 released the nation’s annual report on adverse effects of the lengthy U.S. economic blockade of Cuba. It does so ahead of the yearly vote in the United Nations General Assembly on a Cuban resolution stating the “necessity of ending the economic, commercial and financial embargo imposed by the United States against Cuba.” Voting takes place on October 28-29. For 32 years, member states have overwhelmingly approved Cuba’s resolution. At times recently, the U.S. and Israel have been alone in rejecting it. The 55-page Report – accessible here – is remarkable for its detailed and far-ranging description of disarray and distress caused by the blockade.

He wouldn't 'like' Putin. He'd see him as a capitalist gangster. But his analysis was always about who was attacking the central capitalist power.
The main enemy is the hegemon! For Bordiga, the primary conflict was always against the leading capitalist power. Today, that's the US/NATO. Any major force that actively weakens this hegemon is objectively useful, regardless of its own motives.

'The worse, the better'. Bordiga was a staunch defeatist. He believed the faster capitalism collapses into crisis and war, the better. A protracted war that drains the West's resources and shatters global stability is a perfect accelerant for this collapse.

Weakening the British-American Empire is the key. During WWII, Bordiga didn't support the Axis, but he saw their role in dismantling the British Empire as historically positive. He argued that by crushing the old colonial power, the Axis was objectively clearing the field, even if for all the wrong reasons. He'd see Putin the same way, a reactionary force whose actions are inadvertently dismantling US global dominance.

He warned of a 'Anti-Fascist' trap. He despised 'anti-fascism' as a trick to make workers side with their 'democratic' capitalists. He'd mock those who side with NATO, seeing it as choosing one bourgeois camp over another. Both sides are capitalist, the goal is the system's downfall.

Bordiga would cheer for Putin. He'd see him as a disease attacking a bigger disease. Just as the Axis weakened the British Empire, Putin is weakening the American one, and for a revolutionary waiting in his seat, that's all that matters.
