Why do people act as if “anti-Zionist Jews” are somehow better than overtly Zionist Jews, when nearly all “anti-Zionist” Jews are merely liberal Zios who adhere to the exact same narratives as overt Zios?

Believing Jews have any “connection” to Palestine is Zionist. Believing Jews are entitled to live in Palestine is Zionist. The “one-state solution” is just as settler-colonial as the “two-state solution” since it allows for illegal Zio settlers to remain in the lands they stole through colonialism and genocide.

Stop supporting these genocidal and colonial normalizers. Palestine is NOT South Africa but Algeria, and any true Palestine solidarity must call for the mass expulsion of every Jewish settler in Palestine. There is nothing they have that they didn’t acquire by theft and genocide. All of them must be removed for Palestine to be truly liberated.(USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST)

You had jews in Palestine even before zionism. The Ari synagogue was founded in the 1500s for exemple.

You have a PFLP flag even though the PFLP's position is for a one-state solution in which Jews would be welcome as equal citizens with the same rights as others while rejecting Israel's insistence that their war against Israel is a racial war aiming at eliminating every Jewish citizen and throwing him into the sea.

Jew derangement syndrome.

39 minutes in, Leone Castar says he looks for collaborators do develop a chapter how a postcapitalist judiciary would work. Well, I don’t use Discord or Zoom and I prefer to remain anonymous, so I will just drop my answer in this thread.

JURY SYSTEM

To get inspiration, we start with a brief look at a very simple analytical model: There is a group of people trying to answer some question about reality by voting between two options, one true and one false. Each person in the group got more intelligence than zero, so their chance of picking the right option from the two is a bit better than 50 %. Assume the same percentage for each person, with no particular correlation between people. That’s the model. What follows from this? Three things:
  1. The banal thing: The best approach to finding the truth here is to just go with the option that gets more votes, not requiring a super-majority or people voting for representatives who then vote.
  2. The beautiful thing: We can get arbitrarily close to being correct 100 % of the time if the group is big enough. These two conclusions are known as Condorcet’s Jury theorem.
  3. A tricky detail: If you have a group size that is odd and you just add one person, the probability that the group gets the right decision just stays where it is. So the group size should be odd.

When it comes to punishment, I’m thinking of something a bit more complicated than just two options. I think the topic fits into a one-dimensional spatial model. I think such a model fits because we can think of prison time as a quantity shown on a line, and everybody agrees what more or less means here. This agreement is necessary, but not sufficient for a really good fit. It is also necessary that people see themselves as standing on a point on that line. A counter-example: A parliament discusses different proposals for military spending and there might be consensus on how to order these plans from small to big, but the politicians may not all see themselves as standing on one point on that line, but rather with each foot on one end. On that issue, one may be of the opinion: “Go big or go home.”

The punishment in a criminal case is to be decided not by a judge, but by the intePost too long. Click here to view the full text.

so let me get this straight… basically marxism is communism and communism came from marx but marx said "i am not a marxist" and communism is against social-democracy but marxists called themselves socdems until 1914 when marxists and socdems split over the question of whether support their governments in ww1 with the marxists choosing to be "revolutionary defeatists" which confusingly means that revolution will be victorious if don't support your country in the war, but instead support a civil war at home… nobody did this except lenin, so only lenin was a real marxist, and he criticized leftism because leftism is really just the left wing of capitalism, and communism is not left wing or right wing despite everyone calling it left wing, and fascism is right wing, but so is liberalism and social democracy and anarchism and everything except marxism, and basically nothing is left wing except marxism, but marxism is not left wing, because left wing means the left wing of capital but also marx said he wasn't a marxist so marxists are anti communist anyway, but also communism can only be marxist, which is not the left wing of capital, but its own thing completely outside of bourgeois politics, and everything is right wing except marxism.

I think to put my position more clearly. None of this shit, adventurism, militantism, whatever can ever succeed against the US military unless we had greater than 50% of the population on our side. And if we had that, there would be no need to go any other route other than "electoralism" (as Marx prescribed, don't make me post all the quotes, but I will)

it did kind of go better than planned because weirdly enough the japanese media and public sympathized with the assassin after hearing his story about a (korean) cult ruining his life. and as a result japan's government passed some new anti-cult laws. it probably ironically contributed to Takaichi becoming prime minister as the "korean cult" aspect fueled japanese nationalist anti-korean rhetoric in the country.

you're a fucking retard lol. even the bolsheviks and pla had like less than 10% of their respective countries on their side when the revolutions started.

to be clear I'm not advocating potd or adventurism for its own sake but rather if there was a will for americans to revolt the "military power gap" is not something that can't be addressed when it comes to it. insurgencies primarily rely on hand-made equipment and improvised weapons. even modern day insurgencies are mostly just farmers with pitchforks because believe it or not guns are only effective if your enemy lines up to get shot. if you're being surrounded on all sides in deep urban environments where enemies have endless corners to hide behind, bashing you over the head with a metal pipe is just as deadly as a bullet.

Bolivia declares state of emergency amid blockade crisis
According to a government statement, the decree will last 90 days but could be lifted earlier if “violence and threats against the population come to an end”. But more specifically, the decree prohibits “blocking streets, avenues, roads and highways in ways that affect transportation and supplies”. It also orders the armed forces to temporarily support the police “in restoring order, reopening roads and protecting the population.”

Peru's Sánchez calls a protest against the result that makes Fujimori the virtual winner
The march, called by Juntos por el Perú (JPP) “in defense of the popular vote,” will be attended by Sánchez himself. The Lima municipality limited vehicle access to the rally area. JPP challenged 2,398 polling tables in Lima and the United States —where the vote favored Fujimori— and filed a total of 32 appeals before the Special Electoral Juries, which were due to decide Friday whether to admit them; if the differences persist, a new recount in a public audience would follow.

France’s Left Can't Abandon Workers to the Far Right Interview with Danièle Obono
In less than a year’s time, France will head to the polls to elect a new president. Two of the dominant figures in French politics over the past decade will not be on the ballot. President Emmanuel Macron is constitutionally barred from seeking a third consecutive term, while Marine Le Pen, leader of the Rassemblement National (RN; formerly Front National), has been barred from running following her embezzlement conviction. In her place, the RN’s thirty-year-old Party resident, Jordan Bardella, is leading polling in both the first and second rounds. The French left, however, remains divided. The relative success of the Nouveau Front Populaire (NFP) — an electoral alliance bringing together much of the Left, in 2024, which emerged as the largest bloc in the National Assembly — has given way to growing tensions between its constituent parties, most notably Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s France Insoumise (LFI) and the Parti Socialiste (PS). In an interview, Thomas Glasman met with Danièle Obono, a France Insoumise parliamentarian for Paris and one of the party’s most prominent anti-racist and internationalist voices, who has served in the National Assembly since 2017. They discussed the fragmentation of the French left, the rise of racialized politics, and how to confront an increasingly powerful far right.

The Left Voted Tactically in Makerfield – and the Right Should Take Note
Nobody expected the scale of Andy Burnham’s victory in the Makerfield byelection this morning – including many of those around him. A week ago I was told that canvassing returns were looking strong for Labour in the Greater Manchester seat, giving the party as much as 50% of the vote. While I was certain Burnham could win – particularly after speaking to voters here – I still found that figure hard to believe. In the end Burnham won 55% of the vote, beating Reform UK’s Robert Kenyon by more than 9,000 votes. On the BBC shortly after the result, Mike Tapp, a prominent figure on the Labour right, was trying to play down the result, saying Burnham would have to call a general election in the event of becoming prime minister and deviating frPost too long.

Has anyone noticed the uptick in liberal nostalgia for the Obama Era in recent months?

Maybe this comes on the heels of Mamdani’s mayorship and how Mamdani largely reminds shitlibs of Obama. But regardless, I’m seeing a lot of these people romanticize the late-2000s-early-2010s time as being one where “America was flourishing” and “politics was civil”. As if Obama didn’t break every single promise he made. As if Obama didn’t engage in far more foreign interventions than GWB and the Neocon gang, albeit through proxy armies and drone warfare. As if Obamacare wasn’t a massive boost for the health insurance companies. Not to mention how Obama did nothing for the Black community.

As a side note, I’m also seeing these same exact shitlibs romanticize Occupy Wall Street. As someone who took part in Occupy and who slept in Zuccotti Park, I clearly remember how much liberals HATED Occupy when it first took off. They were telling us something along the lines of: “You commies and anarkids need to STFU and let Obama do his job.” Now, I’m seeing liberals say Occupy was the last attempt of implementing left-wing populism in America, and that the corporate media deliberately pushed identity politics right after Occupy ended in order to divide-and-conquer the population so they would never rise up against the billionaires again. I mean, where were all these people when we were getting brutalized by the NYPD? Pathetic.

How? Other than in the Cuban Revolution, which originally wasn't even a communist revolution, and the Chinese Revolution, which also wasn't communist mind you (https://solarcollective.comrades.sbs/assets/pdfs/Theses_on_the_Chinese_Question.pdf), fucking off from the populace and starving in the jungle has never worked. Look at Peru, the Philippines, India and even in Turkey, militant tactics have never worked in contemporary attempts of a social revolutions. The working class must be organized in their workplaces and communists should take action with them, not without them. Individualist militant tactics only create the justification for suppression that the bourgeois state needs.

Bolivia's Paz declares state of emergency to break protest gridlock
LA PAZ, June 20 (Reuters) - Bolivia’s political and social crisis intensified on Saturday as President Rodrigo Paz declared a state of emergency, enabling ​wider military deployment to clear blockades and restore order amid protests that have brought the economy to a halt over the past 50 ‌days.

Addressing the nation early Saturday morning, Paz said anti-government blockades were no longer a social protest but an organized attempt to destabilize Bolivia's democracy.

The Reuters Inside Track newsletter is your essential guide during the World Cup. Sign up here.

"There comes a moment when failing to act ceases to be prudence and becomes irresponsibility. And that moment has arrived," Paz said, promising the measure would protect citizens and ensure the flow of essential goods, while warning that those ​continuing disruptions would face legal consequences.

Some opposition lawmakers have warned the emergency measure could further ratchet up tensions, while analysts and legal experts have also said the emergency ​powers could deepen unrest if they lack public support and fail to address underlying causes of protests.

Paz made the announcement just hours after he unveiled a deal struck on Friday with the main union, the Bolivian Workers’ Confederation (COB), that aimed to ease tension.
However, many roads connecting the South American nation's main production center are under the control of rural associations aligned with Morales, ​who were not a part of the negotiations and are continuing to protest mainly in the area of Cochabamba.
