Philippines orders arrest of fugitive senator wanted by ICC
Senator ⁠Ronald “Bato” dela Rosa, the former police chief and lead enforcer in the deadly so-called “war on drugs” during Rodrigo Duterte’s 2016-2022 presidency, would be tracked down and anyone helping him evade arrest would “face consequences”, Fredderick Vida said on Thursday.

Protests erupt over child rape, murder
A cross section of people, including students, rights activists, and ordinary folk, and different organisations protested at the incident through statements and street protests in the capital and elsewhere across the country. Local people blocked Kalshi Road and the Mirpur-10 crossing in the capital at about 7:00pm protesting the rape-murder while people staged protest demonstrations in different districts, including Satkhira, Cumilla, Jashore and Noakhali, to demand justice and exemplary punishment for the perpetrators.

Turkey: Court ousts leadership of opposition party CHP
The move is the latest in a string of legal moves targeting Turkey's oldest party that won a huge victory over President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's ruling AKP in the 2024 local elections and has been rising in the polls. The ruling overturns the result of the leadership election that brought in current party head Ozgur Ozel - and ordered that the party's former longterm chair, Kemal Kilicdaroglu - who lost the election to Ozel - take over as interim leader.

Video shows ICE violently arresting Oregon farm workers and using facial recognition
The footage shows an agent using his phone to capture the face of one of the detained workers, and agents later admitted in court that they used a facial recognition app during the operation. The case provides a window into ICE’s expanding use of this surveillance technology across the US, which has raised significant privacy and civil liberties concerns, particularly since the app can yield inaccurate results.

Trump's "anti-weaponization fund" torpedoes ICE funding deal
The fund was dropped like "a bomb in the middle of a pretty well planned out reconciliation bill," Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) told reporters. The package for ICE and Border Patrol funding was on track to pass by the weekend. But senators left town without voting on Thursday after a heated two-hour meeting with acting Attorney General Todd Blanche. The House will follow suit, and has canceled its Friday votes.

Trump’s EPA to roll back refrigerant rule for grocery stores in push it claims will lower prices
The Trump administration is set to loosen a federal rule that requires grocery stores and air-conditioning companies to reduce greenhouse gases used in cooling equipment, in what officials say is a push to lower grocery costs. The head of the Environmental Protection Agency, Lee Zeldin, said the Biden-era rule imposes costly restrictions that limit the type of refrigerants US businesses and families can use.

Trump’s Latest Escalations against Cuba Show the Urgency of Building an Anti-War Movement in the Streets
The indictment against Castro is a case of peak imperialist arrogance. It alleges that Castro ordered the downing of two civilian aircraft flown by Cuban exiles in 1996. What the indictment doesn’t mention is that these exiles were invading Cuban airspace as part of a CIA-backed regime change effort. The Trump administration has the nerve to issue this indictment while the U.S. military continues to bomb civilian fishing vessels it accuses (with no proof!) of drug trafficking. The indictment against Castro is part of a larger pattern of the United States violating other nations’ sovereignty by doing whatever Trump sees fit to neutralize adversarial political figures, whether that’s kidnapping (in Venezuela), assassination (in Iran), and lawfare (in the case of Castro as well as former president, Evo Morales in Bolivia). The revelations of Hondurasgate, which unearthed a plot by Trump and far-right allies to interfere in Latin American elections, show just how far U.S. imperialism will go to control the region long seen as its backyard. All of these developments make it increasingly likely that a U.S. military intervention in some form is a matter of when, not if. It’s possible that the only reason Trump hasn’t attacked Cuba yet is because he’s been bogged down by his failed attempt at regime change in Iran. But it is also because Trump humiliated himself and the entire United States in Iran that he may be even more inclined to attack Cuba, attempting what he sees as an easier foreign policy win ahead of the midterms.

Ask not what communism can do for you, but what you can do for communism.

Communism is NOT a religion, but it is an embodied social practice, "the real movement to abolish the present state of things," and one important thing that can be borrowed from religious studies which applies to embodied social practices in general is this: Credibility Enhancing Dispolays. i.e. "Actions speak louder than words." According to sociological and anthropological research, there are more effective ways to convince someone to believe in god than making arguments. Religious apologetics are demonstrably less effective than other forms of social influence like Credibility Enhancing Displays or trauma. It is practice, not doctrine, which produces converts. I suspect the same is true of secular movements like communism.

>the proletariat will naturally support communism because it is in their class interests.


To an extent, but only a small percentage of the proletariat becomes party members, and at the same time there are remarkable class traitors like Engels. We have to look at what motivates someone to actually join the movement, and not simply "support" it in words. And the answer is risking your life to bring it about. The best way to convince people that communism is important and valuable is not memorizing Marx quotes or slandering other communists as revisionist and opportunist, but sacrificing yourself to bring it about.

https://pureadmin.qub.ac.uk/ws/portalfiles/portal/17250565/LanmanBuhrmesterCREDsFinal.pdf

If credibility enhancing displays like martyrdom on behalf of faith, enduring torture by the regime on behalf of faith, going to war on behalf of faith, and sacrificing personal belongs on behalf of faith can increase the faith of those around you, then it can also increase the communism of the proletariat around you. They will see communism is the real deal if they see people fighting and dying to bring it about. This is what the academic marxists fail to understand even if they can perfectly recall the letter of marxism.

In the New Testament, Pharisees are seen as people who place the letter of the law above the spirit (Mark 2:3–28, 3:1–6). Thus, "Pharisee" has entered the language as a pejorative for one who does so. In Communism, who is the phariPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

You may have heard of Bosnia, but you probably did not know that is not a sovereign and independent state, it is a NATO colony. This isn't hyperbole, this is a fact.

Bosnia has something called a "High Representative for Bosnia and Herzegovina.
https://www.ohr.int/en/
This is a NATO-appointed governor who must approve all elections and elected officials, all laws and pretty much everything else that has to do with governance. Liberals refer to this person as a "powerful peace envoy" lol.
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cg5pvj5pg51o

*Why is it relevant?*
The governor is about to change. The US and EU will each try to install their own.

*Why is Bosnia important?*
Bosnia is the only Muslim country in Europe. This means that it is the only country whose banks can hold money of observant Muslims. A lot of money going from Middle East to Europe goes through Bosnia.

Bosnia's location is in the heart of the Balkans. It is a gateway from central Europe to Balkans, Black and Aegean Seas. Geographically it is mountainous and covered in forests. It is very easy to have guerrillas/insurgents/partisans running around Bosnia causing trouble.

Ibn Khaldun already had a labor theory of value and theory of evolution in 1377:

https://traditionalhikma.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/The-Muqaddimah-by-Ibn-Khaldun-Translated-by-Franz-Rosenthal.pdf

Evolution:
>The animal world then widens, its species become numerous, and, in a gradual process of creation, it finally leads to man, who is able to think and to reflect. The higher stage of man is reached from the world of the monkeys, in which both sagacity and perception are found, but which has not reached the stage of actual reflection and thinking. At this point we come to the first stage of man after (the world of monkeys). This is as far as our (physical) observation extends.

Labor Theory of Value:
>Now, as we shall mention, labor is the real basis of profit. When labor is not appreciated and is done for nothing, the hope for profit vanishes, and no (productive) work is done. The sedentary population disperses, and civilization decays.

HOW WAS HE SO BASED?

>Soviet Archives

Reminder: There is no monolithic Soviet archives. It's an umbrella term usually to refer to the over a dozen central state archives in Moscow, which over the course of several mergers, acquisitions, and Renamings got the main previously classified government records and communist party records. Certain collections are open to the public. Other archives might be invitation only or by request of scholars. There are certain records that to this day are still classified, especially retaining to some of the operations of the Cheka, NKVD, and KGB are deemed to still be relevant to Russian national security and are usually within the FSB archives. The term could also include regional and local archives across the country and in other former Soviet countries. In the broadest sense it could even refer to archives completely outside the former Soviet Union, which have a Soviet documentary focus.

So just keep that in mind any time anyone refers to "the soviet archives" in a casual conversation. Maybe interrogate what they mean by that, regardless of whose "side" they appear to be on.

Damn, I can't believe the Soviets would deliberately fill their archives with false documents to mislead western researchers 50 years later. What a bunch of dumbasses.

>>2816692
there's no need for snark
the implication is that there's people working in the archives, who have access to blank letterheads, producing documents that push whatever narrative the Russian Federation wants the world to see. there was a thread on this board a couple of years ago looking at the forensics of this, the conclusion of which is that either Beria used a second typewriter only for things like execution orders that put the USSR in a bad light, or someone is or was producing fakes

Hezbollah drones limiting 80 percent of Israeli troop assaults in Lebanon
The report stated that anti-drone systems were being distributed to only a limited number of Israeli troops due to supply shortages, and that some military operations were not being carried out in daylight hours over fears of drone attacks. These drones have increasingly become a problem for Israel’s government, which has reportedly created a specialist task force, composed of military, defence and civilian experts, to develop systems to counter the threat. Israeli military intelligence sources told Kan that Hezbollah had moved away from a command and control structure, and was now operating guerrilla-style warfare.

Debanking, an Authoritarian Threat to the Left
The twenty-first century brought the utopian promise of an ever more interconnected world. Champions of globalization aspired to ever more international connectivity, meant to discourage powerful actors from creating divisions that might threaten the well-being or existence of others. It was rarely mentioned, however, that global interconnectedness could also allow individual actors in key positions of power to influence decisions across the entire network. Nowhere is this danger more evident than in the now-globalized banking sector. The serious consequences of interconnected global banking and finance have recently threatened the left-wing German solidarity organization Rote Hilfe (Red Aid). Citing the Trump administration’s declaration of an enigmatic German antifa group as a “terrorist” organization, a Göttingen-based bank attempted to shut down Rote Hilfe’s accounts. Similar cases have threatened other left-wing and anti-fascist groups in Germany and across the world. It lays bare the threat that “debanking” — the shutting down of accounts or refusal of services on political grounds — poses to the Left.

What Do People Attending a Tommy Robinson March Really Believe?
What do the 60,000-odd people at a Tommy Robinson march believe? Surely – at a minimum – they all like Tommy Robinson? I have news: no.

One man confidently told us he wouldn’t have come on the march if it had been associated with Tommy Robinson (the march was organised and emceed by Robinson, real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon). Were they all, at least, united in their hatred of migrants? Not entirely, no – not least because some of them were migrants: Iranian monarchists, to be exact, here at Robinson’s request, they repeatedly told me. They held up banners of Robinson that depicted him and US president Donald Trump in shimmering light as saviours of the Iranian nation. Some called for the UK to immediately invade Iran.

a common naive misconception among the political left is that the ruling class don't care about the poor and the marginalized, but that's not true at all. they are very interested in these people - they hate them. they don't just turn their backs on them; they deliberately go out of their way to hurt them, they devote time and money and resources to keeping them poor and marginalized and preventing anyone else from helping them, they want them all to starve and suffer and die.

the ruling class are so wealthy and greedy now that they see the poor and marginalized as worse than useless. in a more quaint time they would enslave them and use them for cheap labor, but even that's not worth their time anymore. why enslave the poor and marginalized in your own country and deal with all the hassles of labor laws and minimum wages and strikes and lawsuits when you can just enslave people in some distant foreign land whom you can pay even less and never have to even see or think about, or just automate the labor with machines? in a more quaint time they would exploit their desperation and sell them worthless garbage at a markup but even that's not worth their time anymore. why scam nickels and dimes from the poor and marginalized when you could be scamming rich people like investors and managers and doctors and politicians, people who actually have money to spend?

the ruling class no longer see the poor and marginalized as cattle; they see them as vermin. cockroaches. a person of inadequate means and/or divergent characteristics is an insult to them, a vulgarity, a foul stench and an eyesore. they want these people gone, exterminated, to make room for people and things that actually matter. if you think this is hyperbole, ask yourself this: why do the ruling class fight so hard to destroy things like public healthcare and public education and welfare and food stamps and subsidized housing when they don't even pay taxes and these social programs don't cost them a dime? why are the ruling class investing billions of dollars into things like fertility drugs and in-vitro fertilization and genetic screening and incessantly catastrophizing about declining birth rates in privileged and affluent populations?

The idea machines can't replace human labor because they don't have souls sounds like something a medieval priest would say.

People misunderstand this. The capitalists are perfectly aware that they need employees. The capitalists just want to liquidate old people, the disabled and other minorities.



 

This is probably a very unpopular opinion but leftists should not oppose AI.

AI has the potential to make our lives easier as workers, but in the hands of capitalists, they will continue to extract our surplus value even as our productivity increases, exactly as happened during the Industrial Revolution. Instead of the workday being shortened, it grew longer, and under extremely harsh conditions.

We should use it to our advantage, create propaganda, videos, and information. Opposing it would be like workers in the last century refusing to use machines and instead wanting to make a revolution with picks and shovels.

Only when AI is in the hands of workers rather than the market will we be able to properly regulate its use.

>>2817713
I agree. Fuck leftists though, left wing of capital.

>>2817713
We do not have AI. We have fancy autocomplete that the bourgeoisie are going to try to use to decimate workers. It's going to fail, and the stock market is going to crash, because this fancy autocomplete is prohibitively expensive to operate.

Go ahead, use AI as much as you want, no one's stopping you.

>>2817713
wake me up when AI:
  • is actually intelligent, at least rivaling that of a person
  • isn't a needlessly environmentally destructive force
  • open source and readily available to anyone for implementation in applications outside of government/private sector
  • isn't a gigantic speculative bubble
