>mfw burgers and europoors are finally waking up to the fact that imperialism is leading us to global war
>70-80% see Russia as the biggest threat
>completely brainwashed by NATO propaganda to see Russia as the aggressor rather than reacting to Western expansion
>majorities think the US is also a major threat to peace

Tbh, sounds bourgeois fear-mongering to justify more NATO expansion and military spending. They're prepping the proles for another world war to save the dying capitalist system.

Notice how they frame Russia as the big boogeyman, despite NATO constantly expanding east and encircling them. Pure projection of Western imperialism.

At least some Euros are waking up to the fact that Amerikkka is the real threat to world peace. The US empire will start WWIII before it allows itself to collapse.

Interesting how many think Nazi-level atrocities could happen in their own countries again. Almost like fascism is capitalism in decay or something…

Question for the thread: How long until the contradictions of capitalism finally lead to global conflict? Will it be a hot war or more economic/hybrid warfare?

The third world war will be the war to abolish the third world, that is the war to abolish imperialism, and the core-periphery relations that make imperialism possible. The first world will also be destroyed. All countries shall become "2nd world" that is communist aligned and industrialized.

>>2255699
This is a good thing. Everyone knows the US is in decline and cannot win another major war. Once the American empire is nuked and destroyed, the world's rightful hegemons can take its place and the Sino-Russian century can begin

>>2255699
If WW3 is unavoidable it completely is its better to try to win it. Put all money on anti-missile technology and nuke every inch of Russia and China.

The liberal economy has once again entered a monopolistic stage—a phenomenon that has occurred before in history. The idyllic era of 'free competition' championed by liberals has long since passed.

As Lenin noted in his 1916 work, *Imperialism, the Highest Stage of Capitalism*,
>We have seen that in its economic essence imperialism is monopoly capitalism.

The neoliberal economic policies that revitalized the West in the 1980s and 1990s have once again led us back to a phase that starkly reveals the true nature of capitalism: monopoly.

However, I do not believe that war is an inevitable outcome. War is merely one method by which imperialist nations vie for monopolistic dominance. If it is possible to achieve victory without fighting, as in the case of the dissolution of the Soviet Union, it would obviously be more advantageous for the imperialist countries.

How would a socialist society solve the loneliness epidemic? I'm not talking about incels who can't get laid because they're terrible people, there are so many people who don't have anyone, no friends, not even family.

I think social media definitely plays a role

>The lawsuit is about the app being addictive to be on, not about being designed to result in shitty hookups….
Yes, that's literally the point: the app is addictive, and in order to stay addictive it must result in shitty hookups, or maybe even very few hookups at all and just keep you chasing the "high" of getting noticed, and then barely anything comes of it. When it becomes too successful at removing its own users - bam, they adjust it to keep you checking for "alternatives". This is the perverse incentive I meant.

>From your same source:

Yes, you are confirming my point with that one. One in five = two in ten, I even posted it was three in ten of the full range of population.

>The data indicate that in Switzerland, dating apps have recently taken over as main online dating context.

Switzerland is a country where most dating until very recently happened near exclusively through friends. That should give you an idea that it is not a country that struggles with social isolation in the same way as for example the US does. Sadly there is no research that I could find on the compounding effect of social media or dating apps on loneliness across different social contexts, the studies that I do know if try to tackle it separately from the social context and then you get awesome stuff like "this works in Switzerland but not in this other country" and have fun working that out. But based on my observations of people I know (inb4 "anecdotally") I can see that the shit that you see on social media is easier to handle if you have IRL friends that you hang out with often to begin with. But that doesn't mean that it is a purely positive influence, it rather means that if your context is bad to begin with, social media will easily make it worse. And I'm going to stick to that point.

>Your evidence doesn't even have anything to do what was being argued. I said there's no evidence that people who are worse at communicating their romantic interest are more prone to loneliness, which was your claim.

This hits home as a 3rd worlder non-Caucasian male in Japan. Japanese women always flock towards European white men even if they are ugly, as they are considered fashionable, rich and educated. The rest of fellas here (Latin America, Africa, Southeast Asia, Middle East) get the short stick as we are considered poor and barbarians.

It’s unfair how wealth and status warp human relationships. And painful for those at the bottom.

>the app is addictive, and in order to stay addictive it must result in shitty hookups,
Except it doesn't lead to that.
>must result
This is just your normative stance. It's not a necessity. The lawsuit claims that the addictive part is swiping, not dating.
>This is the perverse incentive I meant.
Having the perverse incentive doesn't mean they action upon it. Funeral homes have the perverse incentive of increasing deaths, but they don't go around lobbying for motorcycle usage or something.
>That should give you an idea that [Switzerland] is not a country that struggles with social isolation in the same way as for example the US does
So it's not about apps…

Well all this tells anyone in Sudan or Africa really is that the ICJ is both a hostile entity to the continent and cannot be relied on for largely anything. If this dismissal remains unchanged, then I can expect that courts won’t be seeker to resolve geopolitical tensions with foreign actors including the UAE in favour of open warfare.
1 post omitted.

Wait is it RSF accusing the government of genocide? If so that’s rich

>>2255677
The SAF is prosecuting the UAE over gencoide and of course the spineless cowards running the ICJ won’t do anything about the case.

I ❤️ bourgeois law

>>2255757
Why would the ICJ reject the evidence of Emirati involvement with the RSF? It’s been pretty well documented, were they bought off? Blackmailed?

>>2255783
The UAE never signed the genocide pact that multiple other countries did for the ICJ meaning by principle, the ICJ technically cannot continue the case with Sudan even if their involvement is obvious and online. What matters more to their reluctance is obviously power as the ICJ as an institution stands to lose less *short term* by ostracizing Sudan from its ability to deliver justice than it does for the UAE. I stress short term as the decision the ICJ just took as I’ve already mentioned in the OP
>all this tells anyone in Sudan or Africa really is that the ICJ is both a hostile entity to the continent and cannot be relied on for largely anything

In application, this means that any other countries near Sudan or Africa at large have their governments given actual reasons to ignore international law and prosecutions made against them just off the principle that they don’t stand to gain anything by complying with these rules.

The democrats are butchers of Palestinians and enablers of Trumpism. We need a proletarian revolution led by and for the international working class, not a band-aid on a gaping wound that will only intensify future crises. Death to the empire is life to the people of the world. Every day without action is a day wasted. There IS a time limit.

Actually Hillary should announce her 2028 run AS SOON AS POSSIBLE just to trigger Trump into getting rid of the 22nd amendment. Acceleration *and* spectacle, now that's the Trump presidency I signed up for ! (not actually form the US, thank fuck).

in recent years the most slandered figure among internet marxists has been chairman mao and in general, maoism, however when you actually sit down to read maos works, 90% of the talking points are bullshit lmao
>mao was a class collaborationist because new democracy has the bourgeoisie work with the proletariat temporarily
mao never said new democracy was socialism, in fact he said that the new democratic revolution would be immediately followed by the socialist revolution i.e cultural rev and purges of capitalist roaders, the great proletarian cultural revolution
>mao put the peasantry above the proletariat
disproven by maos "analysis of the classes in chinese society"
"The leading force in our revolution is the industrial proletariat."
also, from the analysis of the may 4th movement
It is impossible to accomplish the anti-imperialist, anti-feudal democratic revolution without these basic revolutionary forces and without the leadership of the working class
and "On the Chinese Revolution and the Chinese Communist Party."
“The Chinese proletariat is the basic motive force of the Chinese Revolution. Unless it is led by the proletariat, the Chinese Revolution cannot possibly succeed.”
mao never deviated from his position on the industrial proletariat.
>mao was a chinese nationalist who molded marxism to only apply to china
"Every party in different countries will have to apply different methods in overcoming the contradictions that always arise as society proceeds further and further on the socialist path. The methods each party uses would differ from country to country. The degree of resistance encountered by the Bolsheviks in Russia from the overthrown landlord and capitalist classes was very great. They had to take harsh measures to eliminate such resistance. They were entirely justified in doing so. In China, too, counter-revolutionaries were eliminated. But, in China, Mao advocated using two different methods under the people’s democratic dictatorship, one dictatorial and the other democratic, to resolve the two types of contradictions which differ in nature—those between ourselves and the enemy, and those among the people. In his article “On the People’s Democratic Dictatorship” written in 1949 and also published in the Cominform Journal, Mao had explained that “The combination of these two aspects, democracy for the Post too long.

At the time of negotiations, Prachanda’s forces controlled more of the country than the government did and its royal family had largely self immolated thanks to Dipendra, the UN was threatening to send in a full blue helmet force on the side of that dilapidated monarchy with the direct support of both Indian Armed Forces and the People’s Liberation Army.

Hoxha was on friendly terms with China and Albania kept trading with them up until the late 1970s. The first cracks came with China's opening to the U.S, but when Mao died he still sent his respect and condolences. Hoxha started to distrust China when the Three Worlds theory appeared. After that, he started thinking that China was moving its agenda from socialist revolution to becoming a world superpower and dominating the third world. The last nail was Tito's visit to China in 1977 which made the Albanian communists angry, who lashed out against China. After that, the CPC cut off relations with Albania and Hoxha became totally anti-China.

Trump issues executive order requiring English proficiency for truckers, escalating attacks on immigrant workers
The order, framed by the White House and Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy as a “commonsense safety requirement” and an effort to “protect America’s truck drivers, drivers, passengers, and others,” is nothing of the sort. It is a discriminatory measure that weaponizes a decades-old regulation against immigrant workers, exacerbating an existing labor shortage and ignoring the real, pressing safety issues plaguing the trucking industry.

Three tasks we face in confronting an empowered Reform UK
BRITAIN is now confronted with a Reform UK threat of a new scale and character. The party is no longer fringe, but a powerful force, controlling 10 councils and two elected mayoralties outright. The polls suggest it can make serious gains in Scotland and Wales as well. It has already indicated how it will use its new powers. Within a day Nigel Farage and Richard Tice were threatening refugees (saying Reform councils would seek to stop accommodating them, and suggesting they be moved out of buildings and into tents) and local government workers. In the latter case the attack concerned both terms and conditions and jobs relating to concepts Reform doesn’t believe in, from climate change to equalities. The left faces three essential tasks.

How Hamas Sees the Current Moment: An Exclusive Interview With Osama Hamdan
In an exclusive interview with Drop Site News, a senior Hamas official said that the movement will not capitulate to any demands from Israel or the U.S. to lay down its weapons and vowed that Hamas will reject any temporary ceasefire deal that does not include a clear path to a total Israeli withdrawal from Gaza and an end to the genocide. “No need for a short-term ceasefire,” said Osama Hamdan, one of the longest serving senior officials within Hamas. “What the Israelis are offering is: We will give you a ceasefire for a short while and then we will come back to kill you again. So what's the idea of giving you food for 12, 40 days, two weeks or three weeks, and then coming back to kill you? It means that you endorse the genocide and you accept that for your own people.”
