When does Hasan pretend to be religious? From my understanding he's non-practicing. A lot of the Muslim stuff he says as a bit. He does shit on atheists fairly often which is annoying (considering atheists are statistically far more likely to agree with him on pretty much every issue).

You just debunked yourself.

Honestly I'm tired of the Hasan glazing in here, yeah he's good on 50% of shit but some of you all white knight this one demsoc streamer who doesn't understand any Marxist theory so hard.
Why? Because his haters are r-tarded MAGA fanatics and zionists? Because he's hot? Actually listen to his takes please.

A general prohibition of child labor is incompatible with the existence of large-scale industry and hence an empty, pious wish. Its realization – if it were possible – would be reactionary, since, with a strict regulation of the working time according to the different age groups and other safety measures for the protection of children, an early combination of productive labor with education is one of the most potent means for the transformation of present-day society.

I think every child above the age of nine ought to be employed at productive labour a portion of its time, but the way in which they are made to work under existing circumstances is abominable.

>Surely you mean the class consciousness of the workers
No, I am talking about Marx:
https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1845/german-ideology/ch01b.htm

>The ideas of the ruling class are in every epoch the ruling ideas, i.e. the class which is the ruling material force of society, is at the same time its ruling intellectual force.

my god, go outside. talk to people, look at people.
for instance, when people see a rich person they treat it with respect. no matter if the underlying reason of his wealth was a product of thievery, stealing labor, stealing surplus value, corruption, pyramidal schemes, preaching in the name of Jesus without quoting the bible.
and see how the same people treat a person dirty with cement, raggy and faded clothes, disheveled.
that's because the ruling class is capitalist.
Whether zohran can exert some influence or not, that's the question. if he becomes another aoc, another bernard, then the people will be disfranchised in their quest for a relief, and vote for a cretin, just like trump success happened.

that you don't understand the basics of US politics, is appalling. And through Marxism is the only way you can effectively understand it.

The USSR became imperialist in nature near its collapse (and agruable eariler).

While i understand what OP means, and I agree I wouldn't say feds are pushing this, proles in exploited countries are saying this, and they are right that westetn bourgesisie are profitting off of them, they neglect the fact the western proles are also exploited (although to a slightly lesser extent). I said this on another thread eariler but it is true and many maoists have this belief

Nazi thread dni

In February this year, a 23 year old man from Tierra del Fuego Argentina traveled to Russia following an internet ad about free college education for foreigners in Ekaterimburg(?) University. He wanted to travel and explore the world. When he arrived he was asked to sign papers he couldnt read and was sent to a training camp for 3 weeks and from there to Donetsk. He managed to contact his family and begged them to get him out. His father is pleading the Russian ambassador to let his son go home. According to the message recieved by his parents, he arrived to Ekaterimburg university with a group of foreign students, mostly brazilians and they were all tricked in the same way.

Literally every Zigga here is honest about supporting Russia against Ukraine, typically as a means to an end.
That's not the case with the vast majority of the "anti-campists" and "true" leftists, who are not honest about the fact that they're actually supporting Ukraine against Russia. This is evident from at least two facts: (1) their commentary is completely lopsided against Russia to the point of never saying a harsh word about Ukraine; (2) their activity in /ukr/ is disproportionately centered about moments of high-grade Ukro hopium, whereas a genuine anti-campist with no dog in the race would have more uniform temporal behavior, posting during both moments of Ukro hopium and Ukro doom, for the simple reason that such moments don't motivate his or her ideological stance.

US Starbucks workers prepare to strike if contract is not finalized by next week
Unionized Starbucks baristas voted to authorize an open-ended strike ahead of Starbucks’s high-traffic holiday season, announced Starbucks Workers United on Wednesday. The union said workers are prepared to strike if a contract is not finalized by 13 November, which is the company’s Red Cup Day, and strike actions could hit more than 25 cities and escalate if there is a lack of progress.

FAA to cut flights by 10% at 40 major airports due to government shutdown
The closure has also raised concerns about already thin staffing among air traffic controllers, the FAA said. Insufficient staffing at some FAA facilities has disrupted some flights since Oct. 1. Earlier this week, Duffy told CNBC’s “Squawk Box” that he could “shut the whole airspace down” if the shutdown drags on.

Tuesday’s Election Result Is a Rebuke of Trump More than an Enthusiastic Embrace of Democrats
The election results in Virginia, New Jersey, and New York have put wind in the sails of a Democratic Party that has been on the defensive since Trump’s re-election. For the more moderate Democratic Party pundits and politicians, the victories confirm their belief that a populist, anti-woke platform is the way to go. Spanberger opened her victory speech with the assertion that her campaign “sent a message to our neighbors and across the country…and the whole world, that in 2025 Virginia chose pragmatism over partisanship.” Sherrill, for her part, centered her acceptance speech on “prosperity,” tying appeals to America’s “democratic” tradition to people’s need for economic security. She added that the election shows that “we’re not going to give into our darker impulses,” without naming the transphobic, racist, and anti-immigrant vitriol which defined much of her Republican opponent’s campaign and Trump’s politics. Democratic Representative and House Speaker Hakeem Jeffries, who two days ago told CNN anchor Jake Tapper that the future of the Democratic wasn’t Zohran Mamdani, but the House Democratic caucus, said on Tuesday night that Democrats “won all over the country talking about the affordability crisis.” An ABC News article confirms that the races in Virginia and New Jersey centered on the issue of affordability, but the discourse about how to resolve it is much different in these states than in New York.

Italian Fascists’ Love Affair With Israel Started Long Before Giorgia Meloni
Few nations have such a disconnect between the public and the state when it comes to Palestine as Italy. The Italian government is one of just three – the others are Germany and the United States – that have continued to supply major conventional weapons to Israel since 2020. Alongside attack helicopters, naval guns and parts for Israel’s F-35 fighter jets, Italy’s prime minister Giorgia Meloni has continued to provide diplomatic cover to her Israeli counterpart Benjamin Netanyahu, refusing to take even the symbolic step ofPost too long.

Sorry sweeties but accepting weapons and funds from racist slave owning pedo sheikhs and killing everyone at your local hospital is a necessary evil. If you radlibs actually read a fucking book (including Lenin's National Socialism - the Highest Stage of Communism) for once you'd understand.

Dunno mate, maybe some of us are sick of the retarded ass "color revolution" spiel and calls for "c-c-critical support!" for every neolib comprador ghoul out there. Mao anon was right. There's people trying to "acktually" the RSF.
Past few months have also seen posters here denounce Serb and Malagasy "zoomers" for protesting against their pro-zionist IMF backed comprador leaders (muh color revolution!!). Even had a few trying to paint fucking Duterte as a kind of quasi-socialist "based" anti-imperialist multipolarista.

Anyway, you wanna know my position? I wish <someone> would do something about this. If I wasn't a poorfag and had some money to spare I'd donate it to whoever is fighting these freaks.

it's why the US, as a post industrialized advance capitalist state, is caught in zugzwang against China.
Marx in Communist Manifesto
>"The bourgeoisie cannot exist without constantly revolutionizing the instruments of production, and thereby the relations of production, and with them the whole relations of society."
>"The bourgeois mode of production is the last antagonistic form of the social process of production but the productive forces developing within bourgeois society create also the material conditions for a solution of this antagonism."
as US/Wallsteret invests trillions more into AI and automation, it devalues labor and erodes market legitmacy.
if it slows AI and automation, it falls behind China and loses global competitiveness.

but you can't stop a tidal wave. we're seeing a qualitatively leap in productive forces that is different from the old productive forces. it's not merely just efficient tools of the 1st to 3rd industrial revolution that enhanced human labor. it's an entire new way of producing value because it replaces human labor. this disrupts the circuit of capital:
M — C — P — C — M
(Money — Commodity — Production — Commodity — Money)

if labor is no longer central to production, then profit becomes harder to extract, and capitalism’s internal engine begins to sputter. AI automation invalidates the foundations of capitalism and late stage capitalist states. the lack of need for wage labor destroys the foundation of surplus value extraction. the lack of meaningful scarcity undermine markets, prices, and profit motive. lack of employment creates social unrest and galvanizes social revolutions to transform the relations of production and super structure. china already created a revolutionary marxist leninist super structure in the 1950s. they had their revolution. they just needed the productive forces to catch up to the superstructure so then it can synthesize onto a higher relations of production.
