There was no feudalism in China, that's just a western concept imposed on another society. Imperial China was a form of socialism, specifically, AMP.

I do not know the extent of the economic problems in Iran, but if $7 can keep you alive for the two weeks you would otherwise starve, then you may reconsider participating in a protest that could end in you being tortured and killed. Maybe the situation is not so ideological.

Wow the government must be freaking out a little to just give up money to the proles, feels like those "too little too late" actions

Israeli media and US lawmakers signal Iran intervention after Venezuela attack

The Jerusalem Post reported on Monday that the US is weighing “some intervention” in Iran’s protests. The article also said how Israel believes that the US’s abduction of Maduro over the weekend may indicate a new US risk threshold for intervention in the Islamic Republic of Iran. The report follows an appearance by Republican Senator Lindsey Graham on Fox News in which he sported a “Make Iran Great Again” baseball hat, saying, “I pray and hope 2026 will be the year that we make Iran great again.”

UN team enters Sudanese city of El Fasher after paramilitary massacre: ‘It’s like a ghost town’

The UN team members were the first external witnesses to arrive at the epicenter of the tragedy. What they found was a destroyed and deserted city as well as abandoned villages nearby, triggering serious concerns for the civilians who remain there and for those missing. In August, the UN estimated the town’s population at around 260,000 people, of whom about 100,000 fled after the RSF seized the site. So far, no one has been able to confirm the whereabouts or wellbeing of tens of thousands of missing residents.

The situation witnessed on the ground is consistent with what has been indicated by the satellite imagery. In November, HRL did not identify activities that suggested a significant civilian presence in El Fasher. There were no signs of daily life, such as transport, commercial movement or people gathering for water. In the city’s markets, weeds had sprung up.

How Abu Dhabi built an axis of secessionists across the region

Like Iran’s “axis of resistance” - a network of non-state actors loosely tied together under an Islamic revolutionary banner - the UAE’s “axis of secessionists” comprises a network of non-state actors tied together under a counterrevolutionary banner. Like Tehran, Abu Dhabi has curated a multilayered network of violent non-state actors, financiers, traders, political figureheads and influencers to create bridgeheads in countries of strategic value to Emirati national interests.

The overall vision for President Mohammed bin Zayed and his brothers has become one of strategically entangling elites across the Middle East and Africa into the UAE’s hub. What China is playing as a game of geo-economics, whereby countries develop a co-dependence on Chinese investments and trading power, the UAE has expanded into a geo-strategic space where warlords, criminal smuggling networks, traders and financiers develop a dependency on UAE infrastructure. In return, Abu Dhabi can use its influence to gain strategic depth in countries relevant to core Emirati interests.

Venezuela didn't want war with USA - so they chose dishonor. And Iran, too. USA is lashing out in a desperate attempt to start a world war. If you people were libs, you would be remembering Gandhi and his non-violent resistance nonsense

Oh! Now I know how to troll retards on reddit who talk about weak third world and USA being back in power - third world is Gandhi-maxxing

China's sanctioning Japan's military industry. Being USA's vassal comes with a price, these days

Denounce the zionist entity and judaism.

Reminder that Socialist Albania stood longer than the first rabid market socialist dogs of the "Communist Party" of Yugoslavia.

WE WOULD NOT BE WHERE WE ARE TODAY IF THE COMMUNIST MOVEMENT SIDED WITH THE SINO-ALBANIAN-CHE-"PAPER TIGER" SIDE OF TACTICS. CUBA WOULD'VE HAD STRATEGICALLY NECESSARY SITES OF U$ NUKED AT THE HEIGHT OF OUR GEOSTRATEGIC POSITIONING INTERNATIONALLY IN THE 50s. BY ALLOWING FOR SOCIALIST INTERNATIONALISM RATHER THAN SOCIAL-IMPERIALIST MARKET COMPETITION TO DIVIDE US, THE SAME PEOPLE-TO-PEOPLE COOPERATION THAT DEVELOPED CHINESE NUKES WOULD REBOUND VIA SYSTEMS CYBERNETICS TO ALLOCATE ENOUGH STATE RESOURCES, ACROSS THE EASTERN BLOC, FOR A SOCIALIST RESPONSE/PRE-EMPT OF THE ARPANET/INTERNET.

>>2583286
Unfortunately this is the exact analysis used by John Birch Society to call Eisenhower a communist. The same shit today with Alex Jones calling the WEF socialist etc. The implications are the the Fabians are correct and the billionaires are secret commies is not new analysis. It's almost bait at this point.

>>2583306

that analysis is not being used to argue that billionaires are secret communists, that analysis is being used to argue that porkies are suicidal nihilists and not interested in the preservation even of their own class, let alone the earth, the species, etc.

Trump says Venezuela will turn over 30 million to 50 million barrels of oil to US
A senior administration official, speaking under condition of anonymity, told CNN that the oil has already been produced and put in barrels. The majority of it is currently on boats and will now go to US facilities in the Gulf to be refined. Although 30 to 50 million barrels of oil sounds like a lot, the United States consumed just over 20 million barrels of oil per day over the past month.

Trump to huddle with U.S. oil executives Friday on Venezuela
Convincing the industry could be a heavy lift amid uncertainty about legal and fiscal regimes, security, as well as modest prices and opportunities elsewhere. Friday's meeting is expected to include representatives from Chevron, Exxon and ConocoPhillips, the Wall Street Journal reports. The companies have said little to nothing publicly about any potential plans for Venezuela.

US builds case to retain measles elimination status as infections mount
U.S. officials are building a case that ongoing measles outbreaks in South Carolina and other states are unrelated to last year's major outbreak in Texas, as it tries to retain its status of having eliminated the disease after recording the highest number of confirmed infections in three decades. To be considered measles-free by the World Health Organization, a country must have no locally transmitted cases of the same strain for 12 months or longer.

CP of Venezuela, Joint Statement by Communist and Workers’ Parties: Down with the Imperialist boot in Venezuela and Latin America!
The operation included the illegal and violent arrest, transfer, and imprisonment in the USA of Nicolás Maduro and Cilia Flores, an unacceptable and reprehensible act that violates every concept of international law, effectively rendering it meaningless. Consequently, we demand his immediate release. This attack is not an isolated incident, but rather the culmination of years of sanctions, threats, blockades, and destabilization efforts. The real objective was never the defence of human rights, nor the supposed fight against drug trafficking, nor the rhetoric of “democracy”, all of which serve merely as pretexts. The true aim has been the direct imposition of the geopolitical and economic interests of US imperialism in Venezuela and the region, within the context of the struggle among capitalist powers for control over energy resources, strategic raw materials, trade routes, and markets.

What’s Next for Venezuela and What Can You Do About It?
In this article, I examine the motivations for Trump’s attack in the context of a new cold war with China, the immediate prospects for Venezuela, and the need for a strong anti-imperialist movement in the United States. The forceful removal of Maduro should be interpreted as the first step in implementing Trump’s National Security Strategy, which calls for a regroupment of military forces to the Western Hemisphere, at the same time pointing to a renewed push for domination in the region, as well as a recognition of its limits as world hegemon. A more aggressive policy toward Latin America will face resistance from within the United States and from the region’s social movements, labor, and left organizations.

Comrades I fucking dig Petro's writing/speech style, especially lately. I don't think he's exaggerating, rather saying exactly how he feels, filled with revolutionary rage in reaction to this situation (which is also so refreshing, within the context of contemporary world-leaders).
Could the second Trump Admin. be inadvertently igniting a second revolutionary wave across the Caribbean, stretching to Mexico? I mean they really are bafflingly buffoonish with the threats to Venezuela, Colombia, Mexico and basically all mestizo latinamerican populations, who they have/are targeting with the inflammatory and racist "illegal alien" campaigning.
ELN and Venezuelan armed groups already have historic/current ties.
Petro has a personal guerilla history.
Cuba and Nicaragua just there, in the middle of all of this, deep zones of revolutionary socialist militancy. Mexico's history simply as a bourgeois state is riddled with US rivalry and war, it's capital is in the middle of its landmass and a multitude of militant socialist currents exist there.

Based NEU tbh. Craft Unions, which have a stranglehold over education in this country, are dogshit. Likewise the "Big 3" squatting on support roles and most of the time never actually fighting for their rights is shit for everyone involved. I know the Uni sector better and its kinda inverted because the UCU could NOT give a shit if you aren't an academic, but the support unions tend to be more active. The NEU is right to do what they are doing tho, when the Bridlington Principles are holding back building unified militancy they should be disregarded. Also the NEU is drawing close to unifying with the other remaining Teachers' Union (NASUWT) it could redefine the entire sector.

>>2630852
TSSA has its own thing in that it wants to be a craft for all engineers across all sectors but honestly I swear to god they only are properly organised with rail workers, right?

>>2630820
Surely the TUC wouldn't kick out the NEU, even for violating the Bridlington Principles. It is one of the biggest unions in the country and is lead by socialists its not exactly a scab union undercutting strikes by other unions.

>>2631365
At the end of the day the TUC is a confederation based on mutual recognition of rules and agreements, and if the NEU are to go ahead with doubling down and withdrawing from the agreement, and GMB/Unite/Unison launch a complaint, I'm not sure what else the TUC could do but suspend them.

The NEU aren't in a good position. Without a new agreement giving them collective bargaining recognition, they're never going to be able to properly represent support staff members, and they can't achieve this without a new agreement with the big three coordinated via the TUC. They're not going to budge so it's hard to see a winning move for the NEU, damned if they do and damned if they don't.
