>implying authentic eastern buddhist monks aren't also rapists
>don't ask teh dalai llama about sucking tongues
Buddhism doesn't adhere as a whole to the dalai llama, buddhism isn't even a united "religion" its more like hinduism with several hundread different sects, routes, offshoots, lineages, teachings and whatnot often contradicting eachother.
These pics doesn't even illustrate the full extent of it.

For reference most of the largest buddhist schools and traditions do not follow the tongue sucker:
Theravada Buddhism (Sri Lanka, Thailand, Myanmar, Laos, Cambodia)
Zen Buddhism (Primarily in Japan, Korea, China where it originated as Chan Buddhism, and Vietnam as Thiền)
Nichiren Buddhism (Japan)
Pure Land Buddhism (East Asia broadly, China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam)
Shingon / Esoteric Buddhism (Japan)
Drukpa Kagyu Buddhism (Bhutan)
These are just a few examples that don't follow or endorse the tongue sucker who is part of Tibetian Buddhism, and even within Tibetian Buddhism there are many sects which don't approve of him.

>>2656049
He's still correct. It used to be so common that it was a meme that western hippies would go to India or Thailand or whatever to learn le eastern wisdom and end up getting scammed or raped by their guru.

No Pappé isn't a liberal zionist, they're chatting shit or just mean 'jewish' because he is incredibly, incredibly basedman.

Cuckim is a pisslamist crypto baathist dog (average ML)

Tankies should've predicted the fall of neoliberal shitholes like Syria and Venezuela

>>2655499
There's a difference there in that Ba'athist Syria with Russian support were on the defence against a foreign coup and that's why Anarchists and libs hate them, mistaking the coup attempt as popular radical dissent that the US is merely backing, either out of benevolence for libs or, for anarchists, the belief that the US will think they're coup'ing Assad (or whomever else) but ackshually Rojava (or whomever else) is going to exploit the situation and snatch victory away from the US.

Tankies supporting le authoritarian dick-tatorships aren't promising anything, they're not manufacturing consent for "something better" in the short term for a specific nation, what you see is what you get.

>>2655541
They did though, it's just people in neoliberal gardens where nothing ever happens called them tankies and to kill themselves

>russia hung assad out to dry
assad is living safely in moscow, always hated ruling syria, and has gone back to medical school, this time in opthalmology.

You live in the blowing up children capital of the world, where you enjoy the spoils afforded to you by children getting blown up. When people say "stop doing the things that enable the blowing up of children", you shit your pants, because you're an accomplice.

I know, but they're inconsequential anon. There might be a few "leftists" in Israel (imo their primary concern as leftists should be to get the fuck out of there, but whatever), but there is no "Israeli left"

Born to late to experience the first socialist revolutions, born to early the experience the next revolutionary socialist wave, born right in the era of the blackest reaction

This isn't feudalism, it could be a slave economy, or maybe capitalism. It is too vague of a definition.

Just as the Frankfurt School reimagined the left, I think it falls on us to do this same thing now. In regards in particular to places like Chins.

Clashes around Aqtan prison. It also seems that the US coalition has arrived in the area, probably to make sure the prisoners don't escape.

Hesen Şero: Gang cells want to stir up trouble in Cizîr.
Militant groups affiliated with the interim government in Damascus are continuing their attacks on the prison located between the cities of Raqqa and Shaddadi, where ISIS militants are being held.

Hesen Şero, Co-Chair of the Executive Council of the Cizîr Canton Autonomous Administration, stated in his statement regarding the issue that the ceasefire was clearly violated by the militia groups affiliated with the Interim Government of Damascus, and that clashes were continuing, especially in Şedadê.

Hesen Şero stated that numerous gang cells affiliated with the Provisional Government of Damascus were attempting to stir up trouble in the Cizîr Canton.

Police attacked the march in Amed, and resistance spread throughout the city.
A march was planned to protest the attacks by HTS and other militia groups, supported by the Turkish state, against Northern and Eastern Syria.
The march, which was attended by Democratic Regions Party (DBP) Co-Chairs Çiğdem Kılıçgün Uçar and Keskin Bayındır, as well as representatives of political parties and civil society organizations and numerous citizens, was blocked by the police.
Following this, the public marched from the Human Rights Monument in Koşuyolu Park, chanting slogans.
While some citizens fainted during the police's use of tear gas, the protest continued in different locations.
Young people who gathered in the city's side streets also continued their marches. The protests are continuing in scattered groups on many streets and avenues of Amed (Diyarbakır).

third parteis have no chance because the system had made it impossible for them to prosper, the only way a third party might win is by being funded by a billionaire.

>Honestly, what the fuck are Amerifats even doing?
Honestly real

Despite the fact that the two parties are currently very strongly merged with the state and getting a third party on ballot or getting past gerrymandering and voter suppression can be very hard, that could be changed if we started at a state level and worked up. The truth is a successful enough third party would be able to win and trigger a split between the legislative and executive branches (which is already underway anyways surprisingly) and likely bring up much more fundamental issues of state power being being beholden to the bourgeoisie in more sinister ways. Fundamentally our elected representatives don't hold real power, the deep state, which consists of unelected officials, the permanent members of the military, the supreme court, police, the bourgeois media, bourgeois think tanks, private security, and three letter agencies, holds power.

If we had a communist party that didn't tail democrats, that focused on studying the issues important to working class people and finding the solution that's in our best interests, and went door to door popularizing their policy positions and building alternative media based on face to face interactions, they could likely become a huge presence. Instead they do other shit, god knows why

I was told we should not engage in bourgeois politics and elections.

>Otherwise it's a waste.
Main positive effect of the Palestinian protests, or Occupy Wallstreet, or CHAZ might have been radicalization. Did BLM achieve some results, banning of choke holds in 31 of 100 largest localities and probably other things like reducing discrimination and policing of schools in several localities? Certainly the Civil Rights movement did achieve great ends. What makes these different?

>>2654039
whatever is or is not achieved, we fuckin need all hand son deck, or we're fucked

>>2654039
All of those “gains” are getting rolled back. If you want them to stay permanent you can’t allow the conditions for that to happen again. You have to push people further left.

In regards to Jake Lang I'll repeat and add on to what I said in the US politics thread.

I can't remember an instance of a right wing figure getting their ass beat by mobs of protesters. Like there was the guy who punch Richard Spencer but again it was by one guy, not a whole mob. To me it seems that the people are done putting up with MAGATs and their reactionary schizophrenia.

Also from the reactions from right wingers on Twitter, it seems they thought that with Trump in charge they could finally leave the internet and terrorize people IRL again. Only to learn that everyone hates them and aren't putting up with them.

So going forward I doubt we'll be seeing MAGATs trying to hold rallies in Minnesota or showing their faces in general.

>>2653835
On the one hand it's genuinely radicalizing lots of libs and this could have been used by a competent party to greatly grow an armed body and contest state power. This seems even more legitimating to such an idea than during the anti-police protests, since this is a federal occupying force that's been given explicit immunity from the law for all actions, including murder, rape, and theft. On the other hand it's a totally manufactured political crisis. The strings are being pulled by the far right elites in line with the Heritage Foundation and they are creating polarization on purpose. People's living standards, besides the new stronger possibility of being brutalized randomly, haven't changed much and the rise in consciousness seems limited geographically and to the left. There's no competent party to take advantage of the situation and lead the people.

Lol, OP is such a dork.
Your flag looks bad btw.

There are plentiful other flags available elsewhere, but these are just some that they seem to officially sell, and hence, endorse.

The USSR collapsed because its birthrates collapsed. A liberated population would consume much more than an oppressed working class population, and when you combine this high demand for goods with low supply of labour you got shortages. It is what it is.

This is more stupid than the people who think the USSR just broke down because "socialism doesn't work".
