It is really funny to just take a step back and realize that Marx was a complete madlad that probably would have gotten himself shot if Engels wasn't holding him back

>It is really funny to just take a step back and realize that Marx was a complete madlad that probably would have gotten himself shot if Engels wasn't holding him back

Other way around. Engels actually picked up a gun in 1848 and fought under Willich while Marx stayed at home and wrote. When Willich challenged Marx to a duel later, Marx said "no, are you crazy" while some acolyte of Marx stepped in and got himself shot on Marx's behalf.

This. We're reliving the gilded age and have no one to blame but ourselves.

Trump doesn’t know that though. He honestly is that stupid.

>>2626889
That's why I don't blame dictators for supporting him, he's senile and easy to manipulate.

give it a few more years and we'll be entering into pre-new deal guilded age-like conditions due to AI destroying the white collar middle class. I keep saying that communists just need to wait until AI adoption in firms speeds up and for boomers to completely die off and we're basically right back in the 1920s. All the benefactors of the new deal will be dead leaving nothing behind, and AI will take cushy white collar jobs and make everyone but a select few low skill wagies

Zero class consciousness in USA. Only thing you will get is more liberalism or fascism.

Chyna?!

They exist for you to join them for the opportunity to get laid by leftist arthoes

Is it true that the DSA is gonna run candiates for the 2028 national election or is that LARP

they exist to vindicate the social-fascist theory as formulated by Stalin, thats it

>>2668033
yes, most of the members are actually quite principled and do good work. Also despite what this board thinks the vast majority of the DSA aren't socdems

>>2668035
It behaves like a party in all but name. It only lacks a separate ballot line but thats not what makes a party. Most parties in europe run on a chapter style formation.

>>2668502
Yes the goal is to run someone for 2028, obviously not expecting to win but mostly to build more mass appeal and publicity for the party

Bill Clinton was worse.

Nixon ruined the american left, reagan just made it worst

Which isn't Communism but social fascism. Critical support to Reagan.

>>2667412
Well, the first thing I want to say is, "Mandate, my ass!"
Because it seems as though we've been convinced
That 26% of the registered voters–
Not even 26% of the American people
But 26% of the registered voters–
Form a mandate, or a landslide

21% voted for Skippy
And 3, 4% voted for somebody else
Who might have been running

But, oh yeah, I remember
In this year that we have now declared
The year from Shogun to Ray-Gun

I forgot which Democrat I just heard quoting Reagan. It's hilarious that he is probably the most pro-immigrant president ever. Reagan is weird. Obviously a bad dude, but weirdly good in a way.

FBI to investigate Minneapolis activists after far-right claim about Signal chats
Patel used the podcast of another rightwing personality, Benny Johnson, to break the news. Higby had posted on Sunday on X that he had “infiltrated” a group chat on Signal, the widely used communication app that offers effective encryption, populated by anti-ICE organizers in Minneapolis. Higby’s posts appear to show communication between Minneapolis activists in vehicles trying to locate and share the descriptions and license plates of potential ICE vehicles. He argued that the chats have “the sole intention of tracking down federal agents and impeding/assaulting/and obstructing them”.

GOP pitches student loan repayment amid affordability struggles
Republicans say their new repayment policies focus on the borrowers who need the most help, debt cancellation is unfair to people without student loans and that the latest financial strain and mixed messages are former President Joe Biden’s fault. But that hasn’t obscured the fact that student loan bills are piling up ahead of a midterm election where concerns about the cost of living could flip majorities in Congress.

No, Tim Walz and AOC, the National Guard Won’t Save Us
On the heels of mass protests demanding justice for those killed by federal agents and demanding ICE out of our communities, the capitalist state has escalated its assault with Customs and Border Protection (CBP) executing ICU nurse Alex Pretti in broad daylight. In response, Donald Trump’s deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller posted on X, “A would-be assassin tried to murder federal law enforcement and the official Democrat account sides with the terrorists.” Meanwhile on Truth Social, Donald Trump called Pretti a gunman, justifying the killing and attacking various Democrats. Republicans are digging in their heels, maintaining that these federal forces can kill anyone that protests them, even in legal ways, like filming. They’re showing the public how the state can commit whatever type of violence it likes, when it likes. Democrats, meanwhile, have responded with assurances that the state, through government channels, will fight this murder. During his press conference, Minnesota governor Tim Walz tried to pacify the masses fighting back in the streets, urging peaceful protest — despite the fact that he saw the same video many others did, where Pretti was being peaceful, yet killed execution style after being beaten by a gang of CBP agents.

Exclusive: Leaked “Board of Peace” Resolution Outlines U.S.-Led Plan to Rule Over Gaza
The so-called Board of Peace that President Donald Trump officially launched in Davos, Switzerland last week is developing sweeping plans for a U.S.-backed administration to rule Gaza, according to a draft of the Board’s resolution. Drop Site obtained the unsigned document, which is dated January 22, 2026 and titled “Resolution No. 2026/1,” from three independent sources, all of whom are in regular contact with U.S. and Israeli authorities regarding Gaza reconstruction. The sources confirmed that its contents align with ongoing discussions in Israel and the U.S. about the implementation of planned governance structures for the Strip. The resolution, which is the first of its kind from the Board of Peace, details the structure of a U.S.-backed governing authority that would assume full legislative, exPost too long.

it's "seize power"
BTW we usually only name major updates after people who won something. Practice proves theory… what proves Gramsci correct?

>>2663372
That the fascists read his work and proceeded to completely curb stomp socialism with psyops and other active measures.

>>2648616
>Granscianism is the most recent "update" to Marxism after Leninism
leninism isnt a thing and gramscianism definitely isnt a thing either lmao

I think a big issue is conceptualizing Marxism in terms of software with “updates” and that it’s a matter of going through the old files to figure out what’s causing the system to crash instead of trying to develop new theories and argue them using the tools we already have.

>>2668424
>CPUSAtard thinks the proletarian movement depends on developing even more new theories just because (literally "publish or perish" university mentality)
try not conceiving of communism as something external to the proletariat first. we definitely dont need even more moron academics trying to carve their own niche bullshit theories that have nothing to do with communism

you really have to start questioning people when shit like this gets passed around. capitalism, a most mysterious thing, that requires a new theory every year to explain it!

Finally a decent post in an otherwise questionable thread
>despite exploiting the tariff situation like Carney and Albanese did.
I'm curious to know how in your view Albanese has put the tariff situation to good use, aside from attempting (so far rather fruitlessly) to secure some concessions for the steelmaking and aluminium industries as well as agriculture, he has been far more meek and willing to turn the other cheek about the whole thing than Carney has.

Is leftypol banned in Singapore? I haven't seen anyone from Singapore here

>>2652564
>Nor is Singapore an amazing place to be in right now. The neoliberalisation has left the city state with low TFR on par with South Korea and Hong Kong. And this is already with constant immigration and Malay minority, the native chinese and indian would be even lower. Rising living costs and declining economic power has meant that the PAP couldn't make any gains against the Workers Party, despite exploiting the tariff situation like Carney and Albanese did. Ironic that LKY spent decades ranting about welfarism only to have the current Prime Minister be called Voucher Wong for his constant reliance on government vouchers and stimulus spending. PAP even gives out free groceries as 'political campaigning'. The economic miracle of Singapore for Singaporeans is over. I doubt any local neoliberal or fascist would be happy with the sober reality now.

this is pretty much the same path japan, korea, and taiwan went. Lol

I get the impression that Singaporeans are live in a weird bubble and are very mentally strait-jacketed for the most part. They can't see anything outside their carefully curated and hypercompetitive culture of their authoritarian city-state.
