The root of all true leftism is agape, if you disagree then you are merely a little edge-lord who needs a team to fight for his martial impulses. I don’t care what retarded flowery justification you come up with that’s decorated in philosophical window dressing about the ego and its own, you are a chud and you will always be a chud, you don’t care about left-wing values you only care about an aesthetic and a bunch of people to fantasise fighting against. You may as well flip over to an ultra-right wing nationalist next month, in fact you are just as likely to do that. Hilarious that what was the USSR crowd in Russia is now the pro-theocracy, pro-oligarch, ultra-right wing crowd. And Marx’s atheism is him projecting his hatred of his Jewish daddy on the world, his philosophical justification as for why ‘atheism is necessary for socialism’ is nothing but a shoe-horn so he could slime his way into having his atheism parasitically carried by socialism as some third-wheel piggy back. If atheism was necessary for making someone self-sufficient then no atheist would be in an abusive relationship, in fact a religious person who takes their own private spiritual views is more free and self-empowered than some sheep browsing r/atheism

Fuck the sheepish nature of humanity, fuck the tendency of crowds to care about aesthetic dressing and ideological traditions instead of the core matter at hand, fuck anyone who tries to be ‘based’ and ‘hardcore’, I hope you are ‘based’ and ‘hardcore’ when you are lynched by a crowd for being a sadistic leader, fuck pol-pots idealistic wank that lead to the practical suffering of countless people (because they were all his Barbie dolls to play out his fantasies), fuck anyone who unironically tries to label a working class man being himself instead of a stereotype as bourgeoisie while not understanding that labelling things as bourgeoisie is the most bourgeoisie thing you can do (since you are regulating what the working class can and cannot do), fuck all of you, you fucking posers. Fuck your anthems, fuck your flags, fuck your uniforms. You should care about bettering the lives of people, but you care about is a fucking image, fuck you posers

The Chinese government has faced widespread international criticism for its human rights record, with concerns spanning a range of issues from freedom of expression to religious persecution. One of the most prominent human rights violations is the crackdown on political dissent. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has a long history of suppressing opposition and limiting political freedoms. Individuals who speak out against the government or its policies, including human rights activists, journalists, and lawyers, are often subjected to harassment, imprisonment, and even torture. The 2019 pro-democracy protests in Hong Kong, for example, were met with violent repression by both Hong Kong's local authorities and mainland Chinese forces, with many protesters arrested and subjected to harsh conditions. The Chinese government's tight control over the internet and censorship of online content further stifles free speech and the free flow of information.

Another major human rights concern involves the treatment of ethnic and religious minorities, particularly the Uighur Muslim population in Xinjiang. Reports from international organizations and human rights groups have exposed a systematic campaign of cultural erasure, forced labor, and mass internment. The Chinese government has detained over a million Uighurs in so-called "re-education camps," where they are subjected to forced indoctrination, physical abuse, and even sterilization. The government's policies in Xinjiang are also marked by widespread surveillance, with Uighurs being monitored through facial recognition software, phone tracking, and biometric data collection. In addition, religious practices are severely restricted, and the Chinese Communist Party promotes its own brand of secularism, which severely limits freedom of belief.

Lastly, the Chinese government's approach to the freedom of expression and political participation in Tibet and other regions has raised significant concerns. The ongoing suppression of Tibetan culture, religion, and language is a testament to the regime's refusal to respect the basic rights of its citizens. The Dalai Lama, Tibet’s spiritual leader, has been exiled for decades, and any form of advocacy for Tibetan independence is punishable by imprisonment or worse. The government’s policy of forced assimilation, which includes restricting the use of the Tibetan language in schools and banning religious practices, has led to widespread discontent and protestsPost too long.

You are confusing the land becoming public property, but there being inequality between other peasant properties that participate in a market competing without equalization and organization of a national plan with the cooperatives that existed differently with collectivization in the USSR interacting with state-owned public enterprises and their limited relationship with the state that does not suffer problems of crises of overproduction, being a limitation of the production of commodities in the socialist construction that you do not recognize trying to compare with capitalism, but this does not mean that there are no advances that can be made in the process of socialization of the rural economy. You however are wrong in equating what historically does not fit together as small peasant production, private capitalism and state capitalism that was the collective production of the agricultural cooperatives of the USSR with the end of the NEP.

just realized that the japanese empire having buddhist monks teach soldiers detachment, so they can perform violence better, has the same basis as western post-structuralism

it's simply the ideology of fascism

"in the cosmic dance of phenomena, my bayonet happened to end up in your belly", etc. same sort of primacy of the phenomenological over the rational as the western tradition post marx

i used to think that nietzsche was a reactionary aristocrat and anarchists were misreading him

now I realize that nietzsche WAS an anarchist, it's just that anarchy and aristocracy are two sides of the same coin

>>2266748
By accepting that internal inconsistency is inevitable.

I'm a bit late, but the key to understanding Nietzsche was that he valued things on an axis from interesting to boring, and critiqued culture from a literary perspective, rather than a moral one. He preferred chaos to order, war to peace, social hierarchies to egalitarianism, individualism to collectivism, and emotion to logic, not because he thought that they were "good" unto themselves, but because he believed that they were the most conductive to a world where a lot of crazy shit happened.

He was, needless to say, by no means a leftist. But that doesn't mean that there aren't things leftists can learn from him. I'd compare him to someone like Hegal, where his thought is a good jumping off point for analysis that the man himself would likely strongly disapprove of.

>>2266811
>>2271959
Nietzsche's idea of eternal recurrence wasn't an ideal to strive for, it was his belief that time worked on a loop, Futurama-style. It's probably one of his more "normal" beliefs by modern standards. He also thought that acquired traits could be inherited, for example.

You shouldn’t donate to any charities. Charities are essentially businesses that profit off of an image of caring for a group of people. Homeless shelters owned by anyone (religious group, woman only shelters, lgbt shelters) do not care about their respective pops. It’s only about money.

Their function is to generate profit and to sate the egos of middle-class philanthropists. They’re already unnecessary and their elimination, along with getting rid of capital/private property, will benefit everyone.

Colombians Launch 48-Hour National Strike in Support of Labor Reform Referendum
On Wednesday, the Central Unitaria de Trabajadores (CUT) and other Colombian social movements began a 48-hour national strike in support of a popular referendum on labor reform promoted by President Gustavo Petro. CUT President Fabio Arias said attempts to gain parliamentary approval for the referendum would not succeed because the right-wing opposition holds a majority in Congress. “The mobilization on May 28 and 29 is aimed at rejecting the oligarchy’s decisions against workers’ labor rights,” he said.

Argentina ratifies decision to withdraw from WHO as RFK Jr visits Buenos Aires
Milei’s government justified its departure from the UN agency in a statement on Monday. “The WHO’s prescriptions do not work because they are not based on science but on political interests and bureaucratic structures that refuse to review their own mistakes,” the statement said. Buenos Aires has previously accused the agency of “disastrous” management during the Covid pandemic with its “caveman quarantine”.

A Desperate Haiti Turns to Erik Prince, Trump Ally, in Fight Against Gangs
Haiti’s government has hired American contractors, including Mr. Prince, in recent months to work on a secret task force to deploy drones meant to kill gang members, security experts said. Mr. Prince’s team has been operating the drones since March, but the authorities have yet to announce the death or capture of a single high-value target. Security experts said Mr. Prince has also been scouting Haitian American military veterans to hire to send to Port-au-Prince and is expected to send up to 150 mercenaries to Haiti over the summer.

Judge says US effort to deport Mahmoud Khalil on foreign policy grounds is likely unconstitutional
In a lengthy order issued Wednesday, Judge Michael Farbiarz wrote the government’s primary justification for removing Khalil — that his beliefs may pose a threat to U.S. foreign policy — could open the door to vague and arbitrary enforcement. Still, Farbiarz stopped short of ordering Khalil released from a Louisiana jail, finding his attorneys had not sufficiently responded to another charge brought by the government: that Khalil did not properly disclose certain personal details in his permanent residency application.

Colorado River basin has lost nearly the equivalent of an underground Lake Mead
The Colorado River basin has lost 27.8m acre-feet of groundwater in the past 20 years, an amount of water nearly equivalent to the full capacity of Lake Mead, the largest reservoir in the United States, a new study has found. The research findings, based on Nasa satellite imagery from across the south-west, highlight the scale of the ongoing water crisis in the region, as both groundwater and surface water are being severely depleted.

Farage cashes in on Labour’s neoliberal delusion
NIGEL FARAGE today parked his tanks on the territory Labour had already conceded when it opted to continue the Tory two-child limit on child benefit and when it removed pensioners’ universal winter fuel allowance. Long a reactionary and demagogic critic of the so-called “benefit culture” and an active mimic of the narrative so actively promoted by the monopoly media and the Tories that castigates claimants as “scroungers,” the Reform UK leader has, as is his wont, performed a policy switch. His shameless rationalisation claims the volte face is “not because we support a benefits culture, but because we believe for lower-paid workers, this actually makes having children just a little bit easier for them. It’s not a silver bullet. It doesn’t solve all of those problems, but it helps them.” He is cashing in on a gift Westminster Labour gave him when it deployed Rachel Reeves’s “fiscal rule” to make the poorest and most vulnerable pay the price for an economy skewed in favour of the rich. Labour’s maladroit signalling that these benefit cuts may now be revised shows the weakness of the original justification made for them.

Estonian state strips Russian minority of voting rights – no to national division!
Before this amendment, non-Estonian citizens aged over 16 living in Estonia on a permanent residence permit had the right to vote in local elections, although not in parliamentary or EU elections. As of 2024, there were over 161,000 citizens from non-EU states residing in Estonia, out of which around 70,000 were Russian citizens and around 60,000 had no specified citizenship. The amendment will mean the loss of all voting rights for 11.85 percent of the population immediately. Another 4.6 percent will lose these rights after the upcoming elections, as residents holding ‘grey passports’ – those without specific citizenship of any country – will be allowed to vote one last time this autumn. Estonia is home to around 300,000 ethnic Russians, and many more who are not ethnically Russian but who speak Russian as their mother tongue. This is primarily due to Estonia having been a part of the USSR, as workers migrated freely between tPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Stalin’s writings on dialectical and historical materialism, like his “Dialectical and Historical Materialism” is a vulgarized, dogmatized, and bureaucratized Marxism. They are an ideological defense of an authoritarian regime, not a genuine continuation of Marxist theory. Stalin turned dialectics (a method of critical, dynamic, and contradictory analysis of change), into a rigid formula, presenting it as a closed system of eternal “laws” rather than a living method of revolutionary critique. Dialectics should be about flux, contradiction, and transformation, not to rationalize party orthodoxy. Stalin's version of historical materialism collapses class struggle into economic determinism, treating social change as mechanically determined by changes in productive forces and ignoring the active role of working-class agency. This erases the central Marxist idea that history is driven by the conscious struggle of oppressed classes, not passive evolution. Stalin’s version of Marxism also served a political function: it justified the rule of a bureaucratic caste over the working class. Rather than workers’ democratic control over production and politics, the Stalinist state substituted the power of the party for the self-emancipation of the proletariat, contradicting a core tenet of Marxism. Aside from that Stalin’s writings are disconnected from revolutionary praxis. Unlike Marx, Engels, Lenin or Trotsky, who emphasized the unity of theory and practice, Stalin offered a metaphysical worldview imposed from above. He treated dialectical categories like contradiction, quantity into quality, and negation of the negation not as heuristic tools for grasping social processes, but as immutable natural laws, hollowing them out in the process. In the end philosophy must be a tool for liberation, not a justification for authoritarian rule. Stalin’s dialectical materialism mystifies state power, masks class domination, and replaces the revolutionary agency of workers with obedience to bureaucratic command. This is more of a vulgarization of Marxism (which emphasizes democratic control by the working class rather than rule by a party bureaucracy) rather than a continuation.

Speaking of The Daily Show…

Adam Friedland was profiled in GQ the other day and this was the headline. There's a cultural shift going on. I think the vibe is very nihilistic and cynical too.

>This leaks over into the way he talks about his own work. He says comedians think they’re geniuses like Noam Chomsky or Pablo Picasso nowadays, when they’re actually just “content creators.” He speaks about his show’s aims broadly—to entertain, to make people laugh and feel good, to be a remedy for a political and digital landscape that has “broken people’s brains.” “This is the most demoralized I’ve ever seen people,” he says. “Everyone’s just bummed out. In the ’90s, dude, when I was growing up, we were like, ‘This is the best year ever. And next year’s gonna be the best year ever.’ It was incredible. People were buying Hummers.”


>You could mistake the way he talks about his show for apolitical, irony-poisoned pussyfooting, but it’s really just a desire not to be didactic or sanctimonious. Friedland’s friend Brace Belden, a host of the leftist podcast TrueAnon, whose previous claims to fame include a voluntary tour of duty with a Kurdish militia during the Syrian civil war, tells me over the phone that Friedland does indeed have political convictions. While some might call him “the rudest person on Earth,” Belden says warmly, he’s actually “a great role model for people who have grown up in a pretty tough society, with either genetic or intellectual disabilities, that see somebody who resembles them on TV.” Belden doesn’t think Friedland would travel overseas to join a revolutionary socialist militia the way he did, but that that’s mostly because Friedland is smarter. “Despite his demeanor and general attitude, he does believe in things.”

The Chinese are not dedicated Marxists, but they are using Marxist lens when approaching their economy.
When their country reaches a sufficient level of development, they will throw Marxism out of the window completely and become a liberal democracy.

>When their country reaches a sufficient level of development, they will throw Marxism out of the window completely and become a liberal democracy.
They've already been liberalizing because of economic slumps that stopped their trajectory of overtaking the USA. That's the important thing too, because it shows when faced with hardship, they choose illiberal-liberalism.

And the people that unironically believe "socialism by 20XX" are dumber than bots. All they can do is call everything propaganda. The second image literally shows it's a bourgeois state. It's the same delusion as people who think Vietnam is even remotely communist just because they wave a flag around.

But suburban, internet addicted "communists" need a false hope to cling to. They need it to keep the larp going. At best, it's Lassallean bullshit but I'd argue it doesn't get there.

Marxism is not a tool to fix capitalism, you would know this if you read his works, or even compendiums to his works, he vaguely alludes to it, but among other things Marx believes in a full destruction to the system of labor as a need to commodify to live for itself, by just "fixing capitalism" using his ideas, you aren't just utopian, you might as well just be a Nazi.
