After days of scouring documents recently released by the Trump admin, the true JFK assassin has finally been identified. While sources say the man has been named despite the given "codename," his whereabouts today are only speculative.



 

What are some of biggest flaws and failures of the old socialist countries? I mean, nothing is perfect and the old USSR and other socialist countries had plenty of problems, what are those problems? For one to me one big problems was the lack of genuine freedom of ideas so people could actually change the system for the better or the obession of the USSR with military speding when they already had fucking nuclear weapons to defend their country.

>The modern state, no matter what its form, is essentially a capitalist machine, the state of the capitalists, the ideal personification of the total national capital. The more it proceeds to the taking over of productive forces, the more does it actually become the national capitalist, the more citizens does it exploit. The workers remain wage-workers – proletarians. The capitalist relation is not done away with. It is rather brought to a head. But, brought to a head, it topples over. State ownership of the productive forces is not the solution of the conflict, but concealed within it are the technical conditions that form the elements of that solution.
t. Engels
The issue is not the state itself, it is the wage-labour relationship which is perpetuated. The proletariat was invariably and unavoidably exploited in the USSR given the failure of the revolution and reorientation towards national ends, and as a further disservice it called itself socialism while it inflicted all the brutality of capitalist accumulation on the toiling masses.
As for the second quote I'm not that anon.

On another thread awhile back I noted that nearly all the users who post under the "leftcom" flag are aesthetic LARPers and that becomes more and more evident with each new post.

>nothing is perfect

It's not about perfection, it's the scientific FACT that the USSR was the pinnacle of humanity and the fact that you're suggesting it wasn't makes you very likely to be a wrecker

>it's the scientific FACT that the USSR was the pinnacle of humanity
The pinnacle of humanity is what capitalism snuffs out everyday. The USSR wasn’t pinnacle, merely a problem.



 

Regards to
the
girl that was supposed to be the head of the “conservative” party of Canada. So many people are capable leaders. There is no space in this universe for fake leaders and those associated with that.

Also
true war
is volunteers only

So many
girls want to solve all, how hard must the most humble goodness resist the invaders?

No one said mr. Israel was the leader of the “conservatives” except the remnants of Israel and their fake media.

So we wonder what happened to the true party and ask that they tell their story.



 

Why do communists suck at indoctrinating kids?

How are Hamas able to create such epic propaganda for kids? They were making kids’ shows teaching little children their ideology, ensuring the next generation of revolutionaries. Why can’t comrades make the same?

When the right-wing talks about “leftist indoctrination” they’re talking about children’s books where the main character is a Black girl or a side character is queer. That’s it. No Marxism in those books but watered-down idpol stripped of any radical elements. We need real communist propaganda for kids that teaches the little ones our revolutionary aims age values. Why not?

This is the thankfully the last thread I will make on primitivization and future cities. I had to look a lot into the world water crisis, the growing use of stone and steel as substitutes for concrete and bitumen in construction.

These images here are based on every trend I’ve identified about city construction and what I can expect from it. If it wasn’t obvious, the architecture is boring, the buildings are abundant supplying housing for many and the city itself stretches on for a while. So why does the city look like this?

Here’s everything I know so far:
>future cities have to be built out of adobe, stone, and steel due to shortages of water and rare materials
>architecture has to become increasingly simplistic to save on maintenance costs. This also means aqueducts and wind catchers are coming back to avoid maintenance on extensive plumbing systems.
>there’s a severe shortage of housing (like billions of units have to be built) in general which explains why the city sprawls so hard and has so much infrastructure built up.

Anyways, I’ll post the description I fed to the bot if you want to experiment with this

If we keep having a capitalist economy- they're likely to go under a process of "urbanisation".

Urbanisation can be defined as social spaces (be it parks, city benches for rest, community centres, neighbourhoods, and even transport hubs) being transformed into centres of capital, while neutering its populace into a consumerist population with little to no say in city affairs. Instead, you're likely going to see cities go the way of how Eric Adams governs New York. Not only that, but the ecological toll it will have will be insurmountable. Without a mode of direct control and the maintenance of a neutered citizenry, we risk is the city turning into more of a centre of capital as opposed to a centre of community.

As a result we will likely see the expansion of suburbia, or more urban sprawl. With the death of these social spaces, we risk further social atomisation- that means fewer chances to have meaningful face to face irl interactions with our friends and community. Urbanisation would result in us confined in our apartments, our rural areas and the hellhole of suburbia. If surburbia dares to launch a "walkable city" policy, the capitalist will likely shut it down or contaminate it.

Such expansion will also "urbanise" the country side, as cities will soon become more of a parasite on rural communities, which in turn will also suffer from urbanisation as capital expands.

While the state may certainly intervene and place certain limitations on this "development" on the basis that we live in a capitalist democracy such policies won't last and will likely be done away with to serve private interest.

<In fact, like any marketplace, the modern city is the hectic center of a largely privatized interaction between anonymous buyers and sellers who are more involved in exchanging their wares than in forming socially and ethically meaningful associations. Cities today are typically measured more by their success as business enterprises than cultural foci.

CP of Turkey, Statement by TKP CC regarding the detention orders in Turkey today, including that of CHP's İstanbul Metropolitan Municipality Mayor, E.İmamoğlu: We call on our people to organize against AKP’s tyranny
"As of this morning, the detention order issued for more than 100 people, including Istanbul Metropolitan Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu and journalist İsmail Saymaz, is unacceptable. The Istanbul Governorship’s decisions, which effectively impose a state of emergency in the city out of concern for potential public reactions, are also part of this unacceptable situation. The words "pressure" and "lawlessness" fall short in describing what is happening. We are faced with a reactionary mindset that perceives the people’s right to organize and engage in politics as a threat, alongside its practices that completely disregard justice. The AKP government, which represents the full darkness of this system of religious sects and monopolies, is failing to rule the country and thus becoming more and more aggressive. The consecutive steps taken against İmamoğlu, regardless of their individual content, point to a single fact: AKP does not tolerate the people’s right to vote and be elected if the outcome is not in its favor.

QUICK RUNDOWN:
BRICS, an acronym for Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, is an economic bloc aiming to reduce dependence on Western financial institutions and promote a multipolar world order. This movement seeks to challenge the dollar-dominated global economy by fostering regional trade alliances, creating alternative payment systems, and expanding economic cooperation among developing nations. Sanctions on Russia, particularly after its actions in Ukraine, and policies during the Trump era—such as trade wars and unilateral decisions—accelerated the push for financial independence from Western systems like SWIFT and the IMF. This shift is reshaping globalism, as countries increasingly prioritize regional trade partnerships and economic self-reliance over integration into a U.S.-led global system. As BRICS expands and champions its own financial mechanisms, the dollar’s role as the global reserve currency faces challenges, reducing its dominance and potentially fragmenting the global economy into autocratic and regional economic blocs.

NOW & Trump's USA:
President Donald Trump's second term, beginning in January 2025, has been marked by a pronounced shift toward economic isolationism, exemplified by the imposition of 25% tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada, set to take effect on February 1, 2025.This protectionist stance is intended to address issues such as drug trafficking and illegal immigration. In response, Mexico has emphasized its sovereignty and independence, signaling a potential reevaluation of its economic strategies. Facing these tariffs, Mexican businesses are exploring alternative markets in Central America and the Caribbean to mitigate the impact of U.S. trade policies. For instance, companies like Cemex are considering significant investments in the U.S. to align with Trump's pro-business approach, while also seeking to strengthen trade ties within the region. This shift reflects a broader trend where countries are increasingly focusing on regional economic cooperation and self-reliance, potentially leading to a decline in globalism and a move toward more autocratic economic blocs. The imposition of tariffs and the subsequent realignment of trade relationships are contributing to a fragmentation of the global economy, with countries prioritizing regional partnerships over broader international agreements.

“America First”, which prioritizes America’s exclusive interests, will actively promote multipolarization around the world.
Humanity's century-old desire to live in a just, peaceful, stable, and prosperous world is facing a serious challenge from the advent of the current U.S. administration and the whirlwind of its political philosophy of "America First."

The inevitable decline of American imperialism and the unprecedented chaos, distrust, conflict, and contradiction brought about by the aggressive foreign policies of past U.S. administrations aimed at delaying it even a little have been accelerated by the reemergence of the Trump administration and its “America First” policy.

The American Empire's "America First" doctrine, which at first glance appears to embody the universal attribute of international relations that places one's own interests at the center, is clearly revealing its own unique tyranny, aggression, and plunder over time, and progressive mankind that pursues peace and international justice is taking a hard look at the hypocritical reality of American imperialism hidden under the "America First" veil.

There is no other reason why “America First” is condemned and rejected all over the world today.

"America First" is, in essence, a continuation and expansion of the imperialism and hegemony that the United States has pursued since its inception, and it is rooted in extreme exclusivism and the Yankee way of thinking that it is okay to trample on the sovereignty, right to survival, and right to development of other countries and peoples for the sake of American interests.

In addition to the innate nature of “America First,” the ideological characteristics it pursues, such as “show of force” and “peace through strength,” have nothing to do with the ideologies that many countries and peoples around the world pursue today to maintain, promote, and develop their own superiority.

The words and actions of the current U.S. administration, which are conducted in accordance with the doctrine of “America First,” make it easy to see the aggressive nature pursued by the above doctrine.

Can someone here help establish a list of Israeli political parties that oppose the Palestinians genocide? See, the thing here is that BDSing Israel is sort of maximalist, i.e, we won't stop until Israel ceases to exist (probably involves nuclear exchanges) or alternately ceases it's expansionist and colonialist policies (very unlikely). A simpler way is to simply establish a whitelist of Israeli entities; to get on this white list, you must either oppose the Gaza genocide or make substantial financial contributions to Israeli left
or Arab parties.

But on the whitelisting procedure, which parties should be acceptable? Apparently, the Knesset is occupied by Nazis, with Labor only having 4 seats and Arab parties holding 10. That's out of 113 seats. Should we accept centrist Israeli parties? How about conservative parties with an acceptable peace platform?

Gramsci, for some reason, is not as popular as he should be, but he should be #2 behind Marx for any communist or revolutionary.

If Marx was the master of describing Capitalism, Gramsci offers a pathway towards revolution.
