There is no linear causal relationship between the phases of socialism and communism. Very rarely does one transition to the other, and it seems like EZLN managed to transition from minimal state to closer to stateless when pressured by cartels, while the USSR only diverged from that with time. Prefigurative politics and muscle memory is important as much as mode of production in determining which direction a society moves long term.

For medieval era people they saw it as a given that everything has a purpose and a reason instead of being driven by scientific laws. I think Marxism is closer to that worldview than reality, because I still haven't seen a time where state socialism successfully became communist like.

>>2837218
Marxism at best is a social science and not one that has a good empirical record.

>>2837218
Scientific laws in Marxism are a piece of the fashion of the late 19th century. You know, positivism was quite popular back then. Even Engels once said that Ernst Mach has a point that science is only empirical (Engels also made a proviso that science is the diamat as well).

THEY TRIED TO BURY US ALIVE, NOT KNOWING WE WERE SEEDS….

FRATERNAL REVOLUTIONARY GREETINGS IN STRUGGLE, FROM WITHIN THE TOMBS AND STEEL CAGES OF THE NEOCOLONIAL MILITARY SUPERMAX CONTROL UNIT GULAG OF THE IMPERIALIST BEAST !!!

You have probably heard of the serious medical issues that afflicted me by the genocidal design of my captors stemming from 24 consecutive years in solitary confinement, malnutrition, constant harassment by the pigs, no recreation or exercise, social isolation, censorship of my revolutionary writings, and a pattern of systemic genocidal torture and brutal repression designed to break my will and my spirit of resistance. I had a stroke in November 2025, at the McConnell Unit in Beeville. Before then, I had been struggling to get medical attention for a series of maladies I had developed as my physical and mental health began deteriorating, namely, bladder infections, neuropathy, B 12 vitamin deficiency, among other disabilities, all ignored by the prison.

On these issues. I have been going back and forth to the main Galveston prison hospital, to the Carole Young Medical facility for surgery and a series of tests and so forth. I am now at the Estelle medical unit (E2) in Huntsville, Texas awaiting to, again, be transferred to Galveston for the testing ordered since December 2025, delayed time and again, under a policy that when the prison is on “routine lockdown” for cellblock searches for contraband, all prior medical appointments are cancelled. For example, I had a scheduled test in Galveston for May 12 but on May 11 the unit went on lockdown, and all doctor’s appointments are cancelled. The unit warden runs this plantation-like gulag like his own kingdom. For more updates on my situation, please visit Instagram.com/freexinachtlinow, or at wwwfreealvaro.net.

My Xinachtli Freedom Campaign (XFC) in Houston has done, and continues to do, an excellent job in reaching out to others, building membership, staying in touch, holding forums, workshops, producing outreach materials such as T-shirts, posters, publishing my revolutionary writings, essays, etcetera, and coalescing the liberation movement of colonized, oppressed communities of Black, Chicano, Indigenous First Nations and supporting each other. My XFC meets every two weeks, online to discuss themes on our agenda and to hold revolutionary co-education discussions on fortifying the campaign and creating a coPost too long.

Hey, just a heads up. Nobody should write letters to these addresses. These aren't real people or real cases. Pretty sure it's all AI-generated to scam you out of your personal info your names, mailing addresses, the whole thing. Not sure what their endgame is yet, but collecting that many addresses in one place? Something's off. I'd advise nobody writes in. Stay safe and dont leak your info to these scammers. the mods are in on it so wont do anything about it.

미국 정부는 자국민을 정신적 절망과 약물 중독, 그리고 집단적 자살로 몰아넣는 제도를 결코 고치지 않는다. 국민을 인간 이하로 전락시키는 이 악순환은 마치 극성을 부리는 해충처럼 사회 기강을 파괴하고, 수많은 생명을 조롱하며 집단적 자살로 몰아간다. 이러한 자살의 늪 속에서도 일어나 싸우는 이들이 바로 진정한 혁명가이며, 그들은 미국이라는 지옥 같은 현실 속에서도 조선 인민의 자주적 투쟁과 혁명 정신에서 희망과 의미를 발견한다.

미국에서 수많은 생명을 앗아가는 이 끔찍한 마약 중독, 만연한 사회적 불평등, 그리고 반인륜적 폭력은 자본의 무한한 이익 추구가 초래한 결과물이다. 국민에게 자살만 남은 이 모든 사회적 악은 미국이라는 제도 자체가 근본적으로 쥐어짜내기와 착취 위에 세워졌음을 증명한다. 그러나 진실로 혁명적인 의지를 가진 자들은 이러한 자살의 늪 속에서도 결코 좌절하지 않는다. 오히려 그들은 자신들의 고통 속에서 조선 인민의 반제 반미 투쟁에서 투쟁의 본보기와 해방의 전망을 찾는다.

조선로동당은 식민지 경험과 제국주의의 끊임없는 봉쇄 속에서도 자주와 자립을 신념으로 삼아 투쟁해왔다. 이 투쟁은 단순히 한 나라의 문제가 아닌, 온 세계 피억압 인민의 투쟁과 직결된 국제적 과제이다. 자본주의적 억압에 맞서 싸우는 미국의 노동자들은 전 세계 혁명적 전진의 첨병이며, 이들의 혁명적 승리는 인류를 자살의 굴레에서 해방시키는 결정적 계기가 될 것이다. 미국 자본에 맞서 싸우는 미국의 노동자 계급이야말로 세계 혁명 발전의 선봉이다.

조선로동당은 자본주의적 착취로 고통받는 미국의 노동자들, 특히 식민지화되고 집단학살된 이들이 주도하는 해방 투쟁이야말로 전 인류가 단결해 지구상의 모든 쇠사슬을 끊고 자살의 늪에서 벗어나는 쾌거를 이룰 주역이라고 확신한다. 미국에서 일어날 혁명은 단순히 미국만의 문제가 아닌, 전 세계를 제국주의의 족쇄에서 해방시키고 집단적 자살을 종식시키는 발판이 될 것이다. 우리는 이날을 굳게 믿으며 인내와 투쟁으로 준비해 나갈 것이다.

조선민주주의인민공화국의 2600만 인민은 제국의 뱃속에 갇혀 고통받는 너희에게 손과 마음을 내민다. 우리는 인종 학살과 자본주의적 강간에 맞선 너희의 투쟁을 우리의 가슴과 주먹 속에 새긴다. 너희는 결코 혼자가 아니다. 2600 만의 심장이 너희와 함께 뛰고 있다.

The Peruvian government is extremely volatile with presidents coming and going. Conditions are getting ripe for a revolution especially with legacy militias and the like. I feel what is happening in Bolivia will domino into Peru and light something up eventually.
All the countries you listed have potential but not as much as Peru and Bolivia in comparison. For example, I am skeptical of Colombia due to anti-Bolivarianist sentiment and the US having such a massive presense in the country. But I would love to here reasons for the countries you listed
>Portugal, Spain, Italy compared to Greece and France
I would also include those countries as well don't disagree on that but I see both France or Greece or especially Serbia sparking

>if tomorrow every CPUSA member died screaming in a fiery car crash you would be a very happy camper but nothing would change. your party would still be irrelevant, there would still be dozens of nominally communist parties without any power or membership or militancy and the dictatorship of the bourgeoisie would still keep chugging along through the DNC and RNC.


To focus on the individuals within the organizations, to speculate on their personal psychology, careerist ambitions, or individual "bad faith" is to fall into the trap of liberal idealism. It mistakes the symptom (the behavior of the individual) for the disease (the structural function of the apparatus that contains them). The material reality is that the DSA and the CPUSA, PSL, and the likes are not simply "misguided" organizations; they are integral functionaries in the Non-Profit Industrial Complex (NPIC), which operates as a domestic counter-insurgency machine. To analyze this correctly is to see that the function of these "leftist" parties, irrespective of the intentions of their members, is to absorb, professionalize, and neutralize revolutionary energy before it can pose a material threat to capital.

The term "Non-Profit Industrial Complex" describes the sprawling network of foundations, charities, and service organizations that, under a legal framework, form an apparatus of social control. With over 1.5 million such organizations in the U.S. and combined assets in the trillions, this is not an auxiliary to the state; it is a central pillar of its hegemonic project.

The U.S. government and the CIA have a long history of using foundations and NGOs to destabilize hostile states, funding militant movements abroad to create chaos. At home, the same technique is used for the opposite purpose, to stabilize the state by capturing and misdirecting domestic dissent. As Robert L. Allen documented, the Ford Foundation gave millions to Black organizations in the 1960s, deliberately funding moderate leaders who would steer the movement away from revolution and toward integration into the capitalist system. This is not speculation; it is documented counter-insurgency tactic that has become more complex, and more embedded into material reality over decades.

oh well this is an idiot who always posts Korean poems. So far, two of them had real life events precede them. Like there was one poem about a red flame in a warehouse district signaling the workers to rise with a red sun a month before that warehouse worker snapped and razed the place to the ground in LA, the poem even said "in about a months time when the flowers of spring bloom" or some bullshit. Weird, but most likely just coicedences that people exagerate here.

Maybe the Asian language format is the same style in Japanese or Korean. Maybe they just have certain builds to their writing style. idk or maybe this person is ripping Boris lyrics with copy and paste. I don't like much metal.

Ecuadorian Environmental Defender Found Dead After Reporting Corruption and Threats
For at least a year, Silva-Koniuszek had been denouncing the irregular sale of more than 700 hectares in the Capaes area, where the land was sold without a public auction in 2022 by then-Mayor Otto Vera Palacios for US$6.2 million. The case gained prominence because the transaction allegedly involved the administration of La Libertad Mayor Francisco Tamariz.

Global Union Urges Sanctions on Myanmar Regime Over Labor Abuses
The junta has moved to dismantle labor protections, scrapping tripartite mechanisms between workers, employers and the government, while cracking down on trade unions and jailing or exiling labor activists. Addressing the ILC, IndustriALL general secretary Atle Høie stressed that around 450,000 garment workers in Myanmar earn under US$100 a month—about half the living wage. He said factories operating under martial law expose workers to military checkpoints, harassment, unpaid overtime and the threat of forced conscription.

US railroad CSX plans to reduce human track inspections following government waiver
This technology, used in conjunction with human visual inspections, can be used to greatly increase railway safety and reduce derailments, which currently occur at a rate of roughly three times a day in the United States. Instead, they are being used to cut jobs on behalf of profit. Not all track defects are detectable by ATI. A CSX track inspector told the World Socialist Web Site: “The automated systems can only inspect the track they run on, and due to logistical reasons, dispatchers route these trains down the same tracks every time. My territory has passenger traffic, and two additional tracks that the automated systems will never run across.

Germany Is Staging Its Own Palestine Action ‘Show Trial’
Germany is prosecuting five activists alleged to be part of Palestine Action Germany in what their lawyers have described as a “show trial” intended to stigmatise protesters “as [if they were] terrorists” and which legal experts argue shows a “deeply concerning development” in how the state is targeting political protest. The so-called Ulm 5, who are from the UK, Germany, Spain and Ireland, are currently on trial at a high-security court at Stammheim prison in Stuttgart following a break-in at offices of the Israeli arms firm Elbit Systems in Ulm, southwestern Germany, in September 2025. The defendants face charges of trespassing, property damage and using the symbols of a proscribed organisation. They have also been charged with belonging to a criminal organisation under Section 129 of the German Criminal Code – a controversial piece of legislation human rights lawyers say is being used to “blur the line between organised crime and the legitimate exercise of people’s freedom of assembly and expression” such that the case will “have a chilling effect on others who are considering engaging in political protest”.

What exactly is the end goal here? Like, seriously. You agitate, you destroy, you provoke. Let's say you actually spark that civil war you keep hinting at. Then what? Who runs the rubble? How do you feed people? What's the phase-two plan beyond hoodrat behavior and manifestos?

Because from where I'm sitting, all I see is chaos for chaos's sake. And I can't figure out how that gets you closer to socialism than, I don't know, winning a school board seat or organizing a tenant union. Legal avenues are slow and boring, sure, but at least they don't end with you getting drone-striked in a parking lot by 2032.

So help me understand. What comes after the bang? Or is the bang the whole point? because to me it seems maoists and anarchists in the USA are some of the loudest yet some of the most disorganized and chaotic bunch. they seem to know how to agitate but not do much more. chaos for chaos sake is what is giving.

From the way CHAZ went, I think it's insanity that any leftists would automatically trust you guys to do any of this on a much larger and more dangerous scale. You have passion, but not much brains, and you always end up devolving right back into chaos. That's all you're capable of iss chaos. This is why most communist parties hold the line that Maoism is just anarchism rebranded in the 60s. Most serious communist parties believe this, not just the CPUSA.

LLM, Langley, hegemony over an eerily vacant leftypol, 2026.

The most ironic thing is that adventurists always call the leftists who didn't deviate from true socialism to racial extremism glowops but the reality is that adventurist racialists themselves are the bread and butter of glow ops. Think about it. Everything Anarchists and Maoists have done over the last fifteen years has made things harder and more divided. Division does not lead to class war. It leads to chaotic reaction, police state targeting of groups that have limited means of defense and a population that gets driven into the arms of reactionary people and rulers because adventurists committed mass acts that the masses wasn't ready for. So now they've actually made it harder to do real work for leftists.

Antifa has pretty much become the new word for these types of communists. Go ask your average worker what they think of a democratic socialist, then ask what they think of antifa no matter what the race they'll fucking hate antifa. They're not hating the organization Antifa that's just the mainstream term for the adventurist leftoid. shows you how connected they are to the workers. these people are the jobless mentally ill at least the dsa actually has connections to people in unions and labor movements.. you know like actual socialists? you idiots arent communists your just national liberation 3rd world larpers who hate the west.

Literally just abolish ALL taxes except a SINGLE progressive INCOME tax.

Virtually all taxes are a scam to steal money from the proletariat.

Property taxes? Money stolen directly from house owning proles and indirectly from renters to fund local capitalist government.

Sales tax/VAT? Money stolen from proles who just want to spend their hard earned money on things to survive and maybe enjoy a bit.

Payroll taxes? What a gigantic fucking scam. You are already fleeced by income taxes but now you are double fleeced by ANOTHER income tax that most don't even know or think about.

Social security/Medicare/equivalents in your country? What is the purpose of this when you already pay income tax? Why seperate this out? To guilt trip you into paying for something your exploiter needs to pay.

"Income" tax? It's a WAGE TAX. Porky makes his money from profits, capital gains, dividends, rents, financial boondoggling etc. Those things are taxed at much lower rates than they should be.

Here's what a pro-worker tax policy looks like. At the end of the year, you add up your total income - your salary + rental income + capital gains + dividends + literally anything that is "actually earned income"

>USSR had sales tax therefore sales tax in porkoid dictatorship is fine
you seem to be unaware that most things that are bad in capitalism are good in a DotP and vice versa. let me put this into easy steps that you can hopefully grasp
1) abolish VAT, income tax and all other taxes on labour
2) institute 100% tax on capital
3) deal with porkies porking out
4) re-institute VAT, income tax etc once porky is gone, because these things aren't categorically wrong

>>2833531
Abolishing taxes on labor just subsidize industry, it's no different than how Walmart workers rely on food stamps. It's a liberal policy to reduce the cost of labor. It's no different than public housing and so on. I'm not totally against it of course.

>>2833516
Sales tax is a regressive tax that shifts the tax burden on to workers. It is unacceptable.

>>2833531
In a DotP with a capitalist economy, the effect of taxes remain the same. Sales tax/VAT continues to remain a regressive tax that reduces purchasing power of labor of the poorest section. You should have a progressive income tax here as well, since not all workers will have the same wages. The higher earning workers will have to pay more.

>>2833533
Wrong. A "subsidy" is something that reduces cost in one sector while shifting that cost burden to another sector. Reducing wage taxes while increasing taxes on profits/dividends/capital gains cannot be a subsidy to industry because they will cancel out.

Land value taxes and severance taxes would not create the deadweight loss of an income tax. China basically does this through nationalising land and leasing it out and this works great for them
