What do you make of Richard Spencer and his attempted alt-right movement? What do you think he did wrong? Bad luck and timing? And do you think he has the capacity to learn from this failure, or other potential “Führers” to learn from him and make something of another attempt at a cohesive racialist pseudo fascist organization?

Why were Nazis obsessed with indian history and more specifically the Aryan caste?
I started reading Hitler's esoteric beliefs and it seems he rejected catholicism for vague dharmic Hindu beliefs and was fascinated with the Hindu caste system. I also noticed this being a trend amongst German academics of that era.
Schopenhauer being the most prominent scholar of Hinduism at his time and also Nietzsche to some extent. Who praised Hinduism for it's life affirming and warrior asthetics. He even claimed he wished he was born a brahmin.

The supermajority of german of the time had such an irrational hatred for the slavs that it would have been impossible. And Hitler also hated communists on top of it, there was no way for it to happen.
The slavic-communist was just an existential danger by it's mere existence, which is why NAZIS even went around doing massacres on non-aligned/potential allies in conquered territories.

It's funny the Strasser brothers became a widely used shorthand for nazbols when their version of corporatist guild socialism was even more idiosyncratic and bizarre even by the standards of fringe nazbols. If anything, the nazbols who do exist nowadays should be called Bismarckists, or people who were expelled from the KAPD at the time for arguing that Germany was a "proletarian nation" and should ally with the militarists for a war against the Entente.

strasser wanted to kill the jews but also the capitalists, they are seen as crypto commies by right wingers, and crypto facists by left wingers. Basically no one likes them. And their proponents got killed off during the night of the long knives. Strasser once said that hitler only did half a revolution, as he killed the jews but didnt kill the capitlists

>The International Conference to Review the Global Vision of the Holocaust was a two-day conference in Tehran, Iran that opened on December 11, 2006. Iranian foreign minister Manouchehr Mottaki said the conference sought "neither to deny nor prove the Holocaust… [but] to provide an appropriate scientific atmosphere for scholars to offer their opinions in freedom about a historical issue".
>Participants included American David Duke, a former Louisiana State Representative and ex-Ku Klux Klan leader, attended the conference.[11] Politician Georges Theil, a member of the French National Front who was convicted under France's Holocaust denial laws, attended,[11] as did the German-Australian Fredrick Töben, founder and head of the Adelaide Institute who had been imprisoned in Germany for three months in 1999 for Holocaust denial.[10][12] Robert Faurisson, a convicted Holocaust denier from France also attended,[13] as well as Ahmed Rami, a Swedish-Moroccan Holocaust denier who was imprisoned in Sweden for inciting racial hatred.[14] Psychologist Bendikt Frings, a leading member of the German National Democratic Party (NPD), was invited by Iranian Deputy Minister of Islamic Guidance Mohammad-Ali Ramin; Frings said that he had waited for such a conference "all my childhood".[15][16] The NPD is often considered the most significant Neo-Nazi party in Germany.[17][18]

what does leftypol think about Peronism?


it was a good alternative in relation to the leftist failures of the time? i know that now it has been misinterpreted and is being misapplied in latin america (i did not see this perpetuation of ideals and personalism so marked in other democratic countries).
I would like to know what anon thinks, not only of Peron but also of justicialism as such
Justicialism achieved a productive populism but on the other hand its democratic legitimacy is much discussed (it was said that in schools they made children swear by Peron and Evita)

>Kronstadt was OG Color Revolution. Newspapers announcing it were published before the rebellion even took place as acknowledged by Anarchists at the time. Soldarity was a CIA funded trade union. Cultural Revolution was a complete clusterfuck that defies categorization where students were gunning each other down and being retarded.

I mean if you want to be anal about it, the later uprising against the RSI was supported by the monarchy and bourgeoisie with Communist assistance.

Also:
>Fascism is always
>1. Anti-Communist
>2. Anti-Liberal
>3. In service to the bourgeoisie

Peron repressed communists, had a political machine run entirely by grift, and ultimately benefited the bourgeoisie by promoting class collaboration over class struggle.

>If you want to claim Peron as Fascist you have to answer why Peron himself was overthrown by conservative elements in the military backed by the bourgeoisie and his party banned from participating in elections for years before he came back. The Fascist reaction was against Peron for performing basic socdem measures which enraged Argentina's bourgeoisie.

Just 57 companies linked to 80% of greenhouse gas emissions since 2016
This powerful cohort of state-controlled corporations and shareholder-owned multinationals are the leading drivers of the climate crisis, according to the Carbon Majors Database, which is compiled by world-renowned researchers. Although governments pledged in Paris to cut greenhouse gases, the analysis reveals that most mega-producers increased their output of fossil fuels and related emissions in the seven years after that climate agreement, compared with the seven years before.

The People of Van Are Not Alone! Kurdistan’s People Will Win! – HBDH
AKP-MHP fascism suffered a heavy blow in the March 31 local elections. Fascism was defeated against the will of the people, despite using all kinds of state means. Especially in Kurdistan, the people’s choice of the Dem Party and the recapture of the municipalities usurped by trustees created a great shock for the fascist power. In the post-election speech of the fascist Erdogan, the threats of invasion against Bashur Kurdistan and Rojava are strongly felt. In this respect, the practice of seizing the elected municipalities of the people is not independent from this dirty war mentality. A total war policy is being implemented by fascism against the Kurdish people and the municipalities are threatened with seizure, which is within the scope of the war concept.

Water industry in crisis – Make the bosses pay!
Thames Water – the UK’s biggest water distributor, serving 15 million households – is facing imminent collapse. The company is in the throes of a scandalous debt crisis, after its biggest shareholders, the Macquarie investment group, left it laden with £14 billion in debt, all while pocketing juicy dividends. After sucking the company dry, shareholders are now pulling the plug on further funding, complaining that investment is no longer profitable. Thames Water has until next year to find new investors. After that, the company is sailing into uncharted waters. Outrageously, Thames bosses have said that bills must be hiked up by 40%, in order to keep the company afloat and pay for much-needed improvements. Another firm, Southern Water, has forecast for bills to go up by 70%! In other words, the working class will be made to foot the bill for the shareholders’ reckless mismanagement and pillaging, squeezing ordinary households’ living standards even further.

Israel to Add Gaza Aid Crossings as Biden Hinges Support on Civilian Protection

President Biden threatened on Thursday to condition future support for Israel on how it addresses his concerns about civilian casualties and the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, trying for the first time to leverage American aid to influence the conduct of the war against Hamas.

During a tense 30-minute call with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel, Mr. Biden went further than ever in pressing for change in the military operation that has inflamed many Americans and others around the world. Within hours, White House officials said Israel would speed aid into Gaza as part of an agreement meant to placate the president.

“President Biden emphasized that the strikes on humanitarian workers and the overall humanitarian situation are unacceptable,” according to a White House summary of the call. “He made clear the need for Israel to announce and implement a series of specific, concrete, and measurable steps to address civilian harm, humanitarian suffering, and the safety of aid workers. He made clear that U.S. policy with respect to Gaza will be determined by our assessment of Israel’s immediate action on these steps.”

The statement was the sharpest the White House has issued on Israel’s conduct in the six months of its war against Hamas, underscoring the president’s growing frustration with Mr. Netanyahu and his anger over this week’s killing of seven aid workers by Israeli military forces. But while the president repeated his call for a negotiated deal that would result in an “immediate cease-fire” and the release of hostages taken by Hamas, the White House stopped short of saying directly that he might limit U.S. arms supplies if not satisfied.

Biden finally calls for Gaza ceasefire in call with Netanyahu

In a pivotal, unforeseen phone call that has been awaited for six months, US President Joe Biden called on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to start taking steps toward an immediate ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.

President Biden underscored the gravity of recent developments, particularly condemning the strikes on humanitarian workers and highlighting the deteriorating humanitarian conditions in Gaza.

During the conversation, President Biden emphasized the imperative for "Israel" to take immediate and decisive action to mitigate civilian harm, alleviate humanitarian suffering, and ensure the safety of aid workers.

Moreover, Biden stressed the necessity for the Israeli occupation to announce and implement a series of specific, tangible, and measurable measures aimed at addressing these pressing concerns, as well as commit to a ceasefire.

Furthermore, President Biden underlined that the trajectory of US policy toward Gaza would be contingent upon the occupation's prompt implementation of these proposed steps.

He reiterated the urgent need for an immediate ceasefire to stabilize the situation and prevent further harm to innocent civilians. Additionally, he urged Prime Minister Netanyahu to authorize his negotiators to swiftly conclude a deal aimed at securing the release of the Israeli captives.

In addition to discussing the situation in Gaza, the two leaders deliberated on the public threats issued by Iran against "Israel" and its citizens.

Hello everyone. Mods can move this to /edu/ if they want. How integral were the contributions of the Soviet Union in WW2? Is it true that they contributed the most to defeating the Nazis? How much of Hitler's forces were dedicated to the Eastern Front? There is also the claim that the only reason the USSR was able to push back against the Nazis was due to Western lend-lease, is that true?

On the other side, there are also claims that even if the Soviet Union was fighting the Axis entirely alone, they would have still won at a significant cost. Is it true?

The great contribution of the Soviet Union in WW2 was ensuring that capitalism continued burning for another century. The very hell you live and whine about today, if you believe that they were really le good guys or whatever, was by definition won by the Soviet Union then.
