Palanga is a very nice resort town; you also have places like Nida on the curonian spit which you can get to with a ferry from Klaipėda, which has a really nice old town. I recommend going in August, as that's when it's sunniest. There's also a lot of markets and car boot sales where you can pick old soviet memoribilia up; I have a bunch of badges and pins from all over the warsaw pact for only a few euro.
>Any way to troll them if needed?
Ask any Lithuanian why we're still using sewer grates with "LTSR" engraved on them

>>2262818
>local food
Try the milk soup. I never had it, I just remember Jonas Čeika aka Cuck Philosophy mentioning it and I wonder how it tastes, lol

definitely be careful with soviet memorabilia since it is illegal, get it clandestinely at a flea market and do not show it in public, same goes for trolling the locals about the USSR since they ban "totalitarian propaganda"

the only place i remember from my own stay in lithuania is the Trakai Castle which is pretty cool and had nifty medieval history stuff inside

>>2262858
but nazi stuff it's not illigal, only the swastika inside a white circle and red banner., so you can see sonnerads, 88, 1488, and any other imaginery roaming so free is unreal. ugh, I hate the baltic dogs so much.

Yeah typical shit. Like banning you for criticism of zionism but not for supporting genocide

Video: In India A Protracted People's War is Raging…

Since the 1980s, revolutionaries are establishing the new political power of the proletariat in Dandakaranya, advancing an alternative model, a New Democratic India. This episode of revolutionary war has been raging for more than 40 years.

This revolution is a painful thorn in the eyes of the reactionary state: Thus, escalating repression, in 2024 they unleashed the genocidal »Operation Kagaar« against Adivasi Resistance. More than 450 people have become martyrs since then. Since 2022, Chhattisgarh state govt. leased 85% of the state's mines to the private sector, esp. Adani, L&T, Tata, Jindal. 50 million people were displaced for such »development projects« in over 50 years. This is outright genocide for the plunder of our country's wealth!

Revolutionaries must stand unwaveringly with the Adivasi struggle for their jal-jangal-zameen-izzat-adhikar. The central government must be forced to agree to Maoist demands for ceasefire. Stop Operation Kagaar!!!

its probably pronounced kaga-ar which would be "to shit air"

>>2263684

This is Indian state propaganda. They are running vast swathes of land and are seen as heroes by the Adivasi tribal people. The fascists need so much propaganda against the CPI(Maoist) because they know they are slowly losing. Recently a propaganda banner was erected only a short distance from a military instillation. They keep fighting engagements where they kill reactionaries and then retreat with no losses. All the military does is kill random civilians and take others to concentration camps.

Indian Maoism has a very strong intellectual tradition and has many people who you can read the works of. I suggest you do that instead of speaking nonsense.

>>2263719
>>2263830
Exactly, the fascist government's offensive is just shit, it is just genocial and only had the objective of mass murder since it is using Amerikkkan vietnam tactics.

>>2263874
it's pronounced kuh-gaar

>>2263957
I have read the works of Indian maoists.
Using many 'revolutionary' words and roleplaying like Lenin and Mao doe snot make you an intellectual.

>>2263957
but isn't it true that naxalites mostly get their cadres from (actual) indian peasants and that the number of those is slowly dwindling (because of industrialization and urbanization) and that the movement is doomed to fail because of this? if it doesn't start branching out

Chess has been banned in Afghanistan indefinitely due to religious concerns, with the Ministry of Promotion of Virtue involved.

The interim administration of Afghanistan has officially banned chess, continuing its opposition to various forms of entertainment and sports in the country. According to the reports, the decision was made due to “religious considerations” and restrictions outlined by the Ministry of Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice. This move places chess-related activities in Afghanistan on hold indefinitely.

Officials from the Ministry of Sports, confirmed the suspension of chess activities on Sunday, May 11, explaining that until suitable answers are found regarding religious concerns, the sport would remain prohibited. According to the reports, no activities related to chess would be allowed to resume without resolving these issues.

The Ministry of Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice has taken further steps by dissolving the Afghanistan Chess Federation, labeling the game “haram” (forbidden) according to its interpretation of Islamic law. This decision follows a growing trend of restrictions on cultural, social, and sporting events since the Taliban regained control of Afghanistan.

In the days leading up to the announcement, several chess players and enthusiasts reportedly sought permission and financial support from the Ministry of Sports to continue their activities. However, they were met with the news of the ban, further complicating their efforts to engage in the game.

Chess, once a popular intellectual sport in Afghanistan, had enjoyed a resurgence in recent years, with the national federation operating under the Ministry of Sports. The Taliban’s recent stance reflects their broader strategy to limit cultural and recreational pursuits in the country, citing Islamic legal interpretations.

The ban on chess is another example of the Taliban’s increasing restrictions on freedoms in Afghanistan. These limitations extend beyond sports to include cultural and educational activities, profoundly impacting Afghanistan society. It remains uncertain how long these policies will last or whether international pressure could reverse some of these decisions.

This thread was made by a crypto reactionary / liberal, nobody here supports the Taliban and this law is not relevent whatsoever unlike maybe some news on the situation of women might be or an operation against socialists.

Remember all countries no matter how shit need to be supported against Imperialism. Stalin writes that even the most reactionary Afghan Emir is better than the coutry being a colony.

About the situation in South Korea

Since former President Yoon Seok-yul was impeached by the Constitutional Court in an 8-0 vote, South Korea's political landscape has taken a turn for the worse. Angry conservatives have chosen former Employment and Labor Minister Kim Moon-soo, a converted Marxist, as the candidate of the People's Power (Yoon's party), while the liberal-leaning Lee Jae-myung of the Democratic Party of Korea, who has betrayed even his own labor-friendly agenda, seems to have won the "loyalty pledge" of the country's progressive parties: the Social Democratic Party, the Basic Income Party, and the Progressive Party. The anti-liberal left-wing Democratic Labor Party, on the other hand, is not likely to do much better, not only because they are on the outskirts, but also because of their disastrous performance in past contests. Another is the Reform Party, which has a base of ugly Incel supporters. There are also a number of anti-communist Christian parties.

So South Korea is just a fucked as it always is?

Zamn why does North Korea allow South Korean investors and financiers to exploit it again?

>heres some incredibly boring information about south korea



 

What do we think of "rewilding"?

>Rewilding is a form of ecological restoration aimed at increasing biodiversity and restoring natural processes. It differs from other forms of ecological restoration in that rewilding aspires to reduce human influence on ecosystems. It is also distinct from other forms of restoration in that, while it places emphasis on recovering geographically specific sets of ecological interactions and functions that would have maintained ecosystems prior to human influence, rewilding is open to novel or emerging ecosystems which encompass new species and new interactions.


<A key feature of rewilding is its focus on replacing human interventions with natural processes. Rewilding enables the return of intact, large mammal assemblages, to promote the restoration of trophic networks.[4] This mechanism of rewilding is a process of restoring natural processes by introducing or re-introducing large mammals to promote resilient, self-regulating, and self-sustaining ecosystems. Large mammals can influence ecosystems by altering biogeochemical pathways as they contribute to unique ecological roles, they are landscape engineers that aid in shaping the structure and composition of natural habitats. Rewilding projects are often part of programs for habitat restoration and conservation biology, and should be based on sound socio-ecological theory and evidence.


Will socialism have to "Rewild" part of the planet to deal with climate changes?

Abolish suburbs and put everyone into high density cities or small towns in order to preserve natural environment?

Seems like a stupid idea. What about the animals which have been so domesticated that they can't survive in the wild? What's a fucking bulldog supposed to do in the Australian bush?

Secondly, what are even the effects on the ecosystem when you suddenly release thousands of domesticated animals into the wild overnight?

>>2262707
I dont think the idea of rewilding is literally rewilding the whole planet, just more of it than exists today

>>2262983
>I dont think the idea of rewilding is literally rewilding the whole planet
Even if it was, releasing a bunch of domesticated animals into the wild would in no way constitute rewilding. I'd say we'd just kill'em all but rewilding will take enough time that we can just let them live their usual lives while restricting their reproduction and call it a day
>just more of it than exists today
the lowest of bars

Rewilding is falling for the same problematic westoid ideology about man vs nature, just reversing the polarity so we leave it alone instead of destroying it. We should be actively managing ecosystems to keep them from collapsing, and that will likely involve a lot of intervention. We can't RETVRN to a pre-humanity "virgin" state, and we shouldn't even if we could, since nature does change with time. Global warming is going to make that completely impossible though, and we should instead be trying to manage ecosystems to be as resilient against mass extinction as possible, with the focus being on avoiding loss of biodiversity/biomass rather than saving any specific species.

Le indigenous people did stuff to care about ecosystem, or something. So, rewilding is retarded



 

Why is every major western city completely dead post COVID?
I'm walking through the streets in my city and everything is dead, shops and restaurants are empty, malls are deader than dead. Some stores have closed down or went bankrupt due to low traffic. Streets have barely any cars. At night it's generally the same, nightclubs are dead, bars are empty. Nothing is happening. The city feels vacant everywhere. im guessing people can't afford to live downtown anymore so they move in the outskirts but besides going to work and watching Netflix what the fuck do people even do? Is everyone just too obese to enjoy outdoor shit now?

Ur not a real person

/pol/ was actually right about the red deer vaxx die off and everyone is dead now.

This is the same question as to why people don't wear hats anymore. Technology. Cars and HVAC systems negated the need for hats and wool coats.
A historical dialectic analysis points to the reason we are here. Firstly the entire US economy is service industry based. Thanks to neoliberalism we don't make anything anymore and everyone works at a computer or in a hospital or in a restaurant or a shop. Thanks to covid all the people who worked at computers now work from home. Thanks to covid all the people who would go to shops and dine out, now get everything delivered (another service that replaces the old service). So now that everyone stays home, all the businesses that demanded you to be there suffered and folded. Who wants to eat out when you can uber eats? Who wants to go drink out when you can invite your 2 friends over? Who wants to go shop at target when you can amazon everything to your home? When you had to go out in person, the smaller mom and pop shops seemed like a better alternative, but now that the box stores all deliver, why bother leaving the house? The reason no one has taken up shelter in those vacant buildings is that the standard commercial lease is 3-5 years long. We are only now starting to really feel the pain of useless buildings. Why is everyone now talking about walkable cities? Because everyone stopped driving around. People don't go out, and when they do, they see dead cities. When it was full of vim and vigor of neoliberal bullshit, people talked about sidewalks and trees, but not the underlying foundational planning of it all. It is a corpse and everyone is doing a post mortum while thinking they are being critical. It's too late. The infrastructure is built, and the entire mode of cities profiting off development refuses to set aside budgets for renovation or maintained. The AAA rated bonds are all set aside for new sprawling development, it's the only way the major municipalities don't go bankrupt. The rot comes from the center and you've only noticed it now that no one goes down town at all. Until your city goes bankrupt, there's no way to really fix it on a systemic level. Notice all the abandoned giant office buildings built in the middle of suburbia? They are just another symptom of it all. They thought they could endlessly expand, but it's now all on the computer that was built by china.

American cities are shit overall. You never, ever see the kind of urban decay you see in American cities like Detroit or Baltimore in any other part of the world.

No I think workers have just been so proletarianized that they wander around getting solar radiation damage to their skin because they lack self respect. That's what a redneck is: someone who wears a t-shirt all day and doesn't give a fuck about skin damage, they are going to die at age 40 from opiates and that's fine 👍

What's with the left's obsession with decrying the US occupation of Japan? They'd almost make you forget that, even without American influence Japan’s a reactionary nation.
Fact of the matter is that imagining some sort of Japan without a military is absolute delusional nonsense. Let's not delude ourselves: Either the US acts as their military or they get their own military. Without their own remilitarization, there's no way they willingly kick out the US; if the US ever withdraws, they'd immediately go towards remilitarization. Even just for the sake of their occupation of the Diaoyu Dao, they will want a military. There's no utopian "no military" option where they just willingly give up the Diaoyu Dao and become friendly with China. So what's the better option? Obviously its better for Japanese militarists to be subservient to the USA than for them to be wholly let loose.
This is probably the reason the PRC sends warships over to the Diaoyu Dao while also condemning remilitarization, they know what they want: they'd rather keep the status quo of US occupation of Japan for as long as possible. By letting Japan know they'll militarily resolve the Diaoyu Dao dispute if they kick out the US bases, they are ensuring that the US bases are perpetual. Which is their goal, because frankly, its better for China that Japan is kept down like a dog. Who knows what they'll try if they're given sovereignty again.
>but, its hampering cross-strait reunification!
And a sovereign Japan wouldn't be just as hostile to China reintegrating Taiwan? No, they'd be just as aggressive about it.
>but, its colonization of the ryukyu people! Ryukyu can be independent and demilitarized!
Ryukyuan independence is supported by like, 3% of the Ryukyuan people. The idea of Ryukyu being independent is just as delusional as the idea of Japan both being sovereign and demilitarized. Fact of the matter is that Japan will have control over these islands for the foreseeable future and its not even a question to anyone except delusional Chinese nationalists who want their vassal state back. Live in reality: either Japanese militarists or US military bases dominate these islands. No third option, and its better for China if its the US military for as long as possible.

Yes?
Onto itself, having a country not be occupied by the american empire is good.
You want american bases to be as far away from China. You want american control and influence over East Asia to weaken.
How could you possibly think that having tens of thousands of rapists under United States Indo-Pacific Command right next to China is better?
The only way this could make sense is if you are a Hitlerite and think Japan is instantly going to invade china because they have the militarism genes.

Japan has hierarchical thinking hardwired into the very language they speak, anon-san.

Many other languages have honorifics, westoid crakka

>>2263457
Kun in Chinese would usually be "bro" or "sis", 哥,姐. 先生(mister),小姐(miss),女士
(madam, literally female scholar/warrior).

Chinese are often called by title or job role quite often in formal settings, but the equivalent of the Japanese system of honorifics might be the complicated set of address for the specific family relationship.

Why do they get away with everything? They're the only country that commits a genocide in the modern day and actively gets rousing support from the Empire of the US. They're the new Nazi regime just with a star of David instead. I'm seriously fucking sick of it.

I lost my virginity after getting a job and some money, this made me think about how the world of sex interacts with money.

men pay for sex, and men with more money tend to have more options, but on the other side of the equation very poor men also have lots of sex also. I want to know what is the real logic behind all of this.

Maybe very poor women are less picky or very poor men learn to be insatiable sex machines. Otherwise you gotta be lucky or make just enough money
