Russia has now been isolated from global capitalism because of the Russo-Ukraine war. Since Russia is not willing to cooperate with existing capitalist powers, it has been maligned and siloed. What exactly is the point of Russian capitalism now that it is permanently handicapped by sanctions? They will never be lifted. The West will never accept another bloc of nations like the CIS using global capitalism for their own interests, which are divergent and irreconcilable with the West. To Rusanons, I ask what will happen to Russia's economy after the war ends and sanctions are kept in place. How will the ongoing inflation and shortages be justified? How will United Russia convince people to vote for their party without a constant state of war?

Hello, I’m from Bharat. I wanted to talk about decolonization of appearances. Due to the colonial period the ideal person was white. Because of this Indian women often try to get impregnated by white tourists so there children are better looking. This isn’t an isolated incident. There are even “breeding parties” where men will come and impregnate a dozen women at a time. It just reeks of capitalism and colonialist insecurity

weak bait bullshit
Firstly, no one on 'lefty'tube would use the word 'Bharat' when speaking English.
Secondly, while fair skin obsession is real in India, Indian women are absolutely not getting impregnated by white tourists and there are no breeding parties whatsoever. (maybe 2-3 isolated incidents if you truly investigate the matter but nothing what OP suggests)

OP is most likely
1. an indian /pol/tard
2. a non-indian /pol/tard lapping as indian

>>2391268
> apparently it stems from thinking that dark skin is indicative of being a low class labourer that toils in the sun versus an aristocrat or scholar who is sheltered from the elements, so it seems to have a dual origin from pre-existing prejudice from class reinforced by racism from colonialism and western cultural hegemony.
Yes this is true, but this changed in the west in modern times where being very pale is indicative of being an office wagie and being tanned indicates that you can lounge around in the sun tanning all day.

Israel's Eilat port to shut down over unpaid debts triggered by Houthi attacks
The Israeli business and economics newspaper The Calcalist reported on Thursday that the Eilat municipality had frozen the port's bank accounts, amounting to approximately 10 million shekels ($3m), due to unpaid taxes. The newspaper reported that the port had recorded a steep drop in revenue due to Houthi attacks on ships linked to Israel. Israel's Shipping and Ports Authority said on Wednesday that due to the "financial crisis it has entered due to the ongoing conflict, the Eilat Municipality informed the port's management of the seizure of all its bank accounts due to debts owed to the municipality.

US strikes destroyed only one of three Iranian nuclear sites, reports
The report said that US officials believe the attack on Iran's Fordow nuclear facility was successful in setting back enrichment capabilities there by as much as two years, citing two current officials. The two other facilities that the US struck were not as badly damaged and may have been degraded only to a point where nuclear enrichment could resume in the next several months if Iran wants it to, the report added. Reuters could not immediately verify the NBC report. The White House did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.

Indiana Kroger workers reject second sellout contract approved by UFCW Local 700
As of this writing, Local 700 has not released the vote totals. But even though workers also authorized a strike in their first vote against the contract, the union bureaucracy has said nothing about a job action and refused to prepare the workers for a walkout. The tentative agreement included only a 90 cent increase over 3 years for starting pay and a $200 Kroger gift card. Workers described this as “insulting,” and a slap in the face amid rising living costs and record corporate profits.

'Good Trouble Lives On' at Anti-Trump Protests in 1,600 Cities Across US

DoJ seeks single-day sentence for officer who fired into Breonna Taylor’s home
Brett Hankison is set to be sentenced on Monday after being found guilty in November 2024 of one count of civil rights abuse for shooting into Taylor’s bedroom window, which was covered by blinds and a blackout curtain, during a narcotics raid on the wrong home. He faces a maximum sentence of life in prison, which justice department attorneys argued should be drastically reduced. Hankison’s bullets pierced the apartment nextdoor, where a couple with a five-year-old child lived. None of his shots hit Taylor, her boyfriend Kenneth Walker, who was in the room, or her neighbors, investigators found.

Successful wildcat at Hinkley C
An unofficial strike of construction site workers at the Hinkley Point C nuclear power station in Somerset began on Wednesday (July 9) due to alleged bullying from senior management. The strikers worked for the MEH (mechanical, electrical and HVAC) alliance of contractors which brings together Altrad Services, Cavendish, Balfour Beatty, NG Bailey and Altrad Babcock. One striker told the Local Democracy Reporting Service: “This bullying has been going on for far too long.” A contract worker on the project told the Guardian one of the incidents was believed to have involved a senior manager bullying a young woman on the team. He stated: “They’ve had enough, and they’re out the gate.” Unite the Union did not support the strike, with strikers reportedly “furious” it was not backing them. A Unite spokesperson claimed: “Unite understands a number of workers took part in a protest over management practices. This has resulted in them being removed from the site for the remainder of today. Unite expects this matter to be resolved soon.” The union representative was joined by a Hinkley Point C spokesperson who stated: “We join with our trades union partners in asking that the correct process is followed to resolve any grievance. Normal working throughout the site has been unaffected by this unofficial action.” It is unclear how many workers participated in the strike. One striker initiaPost too long.

With iShowSpeed visiting Bosnia and meeting a large amount of racism, it has shown the truth of Post-Communist nations, that the restoration of capitalism in a Socialist society completely destroys the Society and reverts all progress from their former years as a progressive society.

Dunno if its about racism, but it is the 'sense of humor' of the fans (who are mostly kids) such streamers have

Tribalism makes more sense than nationalism. You at least know the people you associate with. Nations are fake identities where millions of people you will never interact with supposedly are the same somehow.

When it comes to the study of ancient economic history, one is faced with serious difficulties as a beginner. The usual textbooks normally cover the "histoire événementielle", i.e., the succession of notable historical events and actors (the surface of history), while the works that do cover ancient socioeconomic history are hard to find or outdated, such as Finley's famous book.

Does anyone here have some knowledge in the matter? Can anyone recommend a study process or bibliography? Should one first read the basic textbooks of histoire événementielle and later on deepen the matter or skip directly to the socioeconomic outlook?

I am very lost in this matter and I don't know where to begin, and I'm sure a lot of people are in the same situation in here. And I believe it is very important to have, at least, a broad outlook on the progression of economic history until capitalism, to maybe deepen more specifically in modern history and economics, but with a general view of what came before and the evolution of the present mode of production.

Ancient Egypt had a command & palace economy. Considering how long their empire existed it might be one of the more interesting ones to look into.

Sort of related to your point, I've been reading a lot of Ranajit Guha recently, and in his book History at the Limit of World-History, he critiques Hegel for a limited view of history:

Guha critiques the concept of world-history in the lineage of Hegel as being almost exclusively Eurocentric. Yet this is not merely a cultural rebuke, for Guha sees that Hegelian history, a worldview that saw human development motivated by a transcendent world historical ‘spirit’, as one ‘held in thrall by a narrowly defined politics of statism’ (p.5). World-history then took on an elevated quality as something that only people who had both writing and a state were able to participate in (p.10). Thus by ignoring the vast majority of the globe, Hegel’s world-history becomes ‘a short story with epical pretensions’ (p.35).

here you go anon. these might not be exactly what youre looking for in the sense that theyre not focused surveys and have their own broader theses, but ive read all of these and theyre excellent. idk how these versions are because i have the physical copies, but if youre interested in this topic i highly recommend them.

>1.Isreal is utterly dependent on American aid and American support is dwindling.
False. There is a mild PR distancing from the last stages of the genocide. If anything the US has shown they are wiling to go the extra mile for Israel in reshaping MENA and enabling the settler colonialism. For the USA's own interests of course.

>2. Jewish people are not the majority in Israel/Palestine. No government may long stand without the consent of the majority of the governed.

This is just not correct. Colonialism is perfectly viable as long as you are willing to make the investment. For NATO it is very worth it to pay all the extra cost of sustaining Israel because the returns are at least, keeping MENA under their heel and securing the petro-dollar.

>3. The B.D.S. movement. Israel simply cannot afford to become an international pariah.

The BDS movement is a liberal, individualist boycott. It hasn't worked before, It didn't work during the genocide and it won't work after they are done with Gaza either. The USA and NATO command too much of worldwide capital for BDS to ever be anything more than a liberal, individualist consumer boycott. Little more than PR which can be fought with PR. Capital proper will never stop flowing to and from Israel.

>4. A large percentage of Israel's Jewish population will leave when Israel is no longer able to support a First-World standard of living.

You can count on it, IIRC about 700k already fled early on. But your assumptions that Israel is gonna find it's standard of living diminished or such is pure fantasy. If anything it's gonna be pampered by all of NATO to a full recovery and economic bonanza. As the new comprador agreements are signed and the cold war progresses Israel will continue to grow as a hub of intelligence and military tech sponsored by NATO.

Backing Israel and showing your support materially is the encouraged way to butter your way up to NATO. This will not change and the cold war will only make it more important. As well as a global arms trafficking HUB and all sorts of corruption and money laundering hub for NATO/comprador related businesses.
