Pilots' union blocks Allegiant Air bid to get US residency for foreign hires​
The union has refused to certify to the U.S. Department of Labor that the pilot positions, which start at about $50,000 a year, about half of what pilots at other regional airlines earn, meet "prevailing wage" standards. That certification is a crucial bureaucratic step and a requirement for the pilots' green card applications. Instead of hiring foreign pilots, the Teamsters Local 2118 has asked Allegiant to offer industry-standard compensation and improvements to scheduling to retain pilots who are leaving for rivals.

Trump revokes licenses for thousands of CDL training centers, in sweeping attack on immigrant truckers
The federal Training Provider Registry lists roughly 16,000 providers nationwide. With nearly 3,000 removed and 4,500 more under review, the purge affects approximately 45 percent of all entries in the registry. More than 40 percent of listed CDL training providers could lose their ability to certify new drivers. Furthermore, graduates of any removed center will not be recognized as having completed federally mandated training, and many current CDL holders may find their credentials revoked.

Statement by the Communist Party of Poland: "Our struggle continues"!
The shameful attempt of the Polish state to outlaw the Communist Party of Poland (Komunistyczna Partia Polski - KPP) has become a central front in the international struggle against anti-communism. In recent weeks, the Polish authorities escalated their decade-long persecution by bringing the case before the Constitutional Tribunal in an effort to criminalize the Party’s very existence. This heinous attack does not concern only the comrades in Poland. It forms part of a broader offensive by capitalist governments across Europe and the EU to restrict political rights, falsify history, and suppress communist organizations that defend the interests of the working class. In response, communist and workers’ parties from every continent mobilized immediately. Joint statements were issued, solidarity actions were organized, and protests were held outside Polish embassies worldwide on December 1st. This internationalist reaction demonstrated that the persecution of one communist party is a matter for the entire movement. Below is the official statement of the Communist Party of Poland, addressed to all fraternal parties, updating the movement on the latest developments and reaffirming its determination to continue the struggle.

America Didn’t Have a Boom This Black Friday. It Had a Breakdown
Black Friday set another record this year. Reporters treated it as proof that Americans still have strength in their wallets and that the economy has life in it. The president called it the “Trump Bump.” The headlines bragged about an eleven point eight billion dollar day and analysts lined up to praise the numbers. None of it holds up once you look at how people paid for those purchases and how much strain sits underneath those sales. A record weekend in a hollowed out economy is not a sign of confidence. It is a sign of how far people will push themselves to give their kids one normal holiday in a year that left them with nothing extra.

Producing your own food is hard work. Producing your own tools is even harder work.

It has always sucked. Life is shit and it's even shittier because the worst types of people seem to constantly rise to power over others. I think even on a smaller scale with parents you get bad results at best you get ignorant parents and at worst you get abusive and violent parents. I think it' been awful. Human nature or just nature in general just often necessitates awful and traumatic behavior. That's just what I think.

>>2585864
>human nature
It doesn't exist, stop believing in such spooks.

>>2585858
The only reason to buy a bunch of shit to decorate your house is to appease other people. Like if you have a wife and kids and host friends/family often. If you're just living by yourself in a small apartment there's no need, it's a waste of money.

>>2586044
You're replying to chauvinists who won't even question Stalin's alliance with western imperialism in WW2, let alone reject capital's attempt to distance itself from fascism.

>>2586065
>everyone is a capitalist except fascists
Amazing theory.

>>2586044
The only one getting triggered here is you. I know the "long live the butcher Hitler" quote was most likely just Bordiga covering his ass while living under ᴉuᴉlossnW's rule. I called him the "first zigger" as a joke. I personally view Bordiga the same way I view Trotsky. Their theoretical works made some salient points and did some based things. But their self proclaimed followers are the biggest retards imaginable. You people are so invested in this supposed struggle against "MLoid falsifiers" that only exists online. You're not going up to PSL meetings IRL to confront their supposed revisionism. This "struggle" solely consists of seething at people who like Stalin and Mao online, smugly deriding opponents of Israeli atrocities as "moralists", hand wringing about Third Worldism, and getting groomed by O9A. At least retarded Gonzaloists had the balls to disrupt a DSA meeting that one time.

>>2584576
Redditards coming in to seethe isn't a specter, and not a haunting. In fact, it's the complete reverse - the specter of Third Worldism haunts the West and the Western pseudo-left. Just look at Josep Borrell, a member of the Spanish "Socialist" ""Workers'"" Party.

Left-wing terrorism is back on the menu. Columbine created a generation of school shooters, the Christchurch shooting was part of a pattern of white nationalist terror. If the same disaffected young men eager to throw their life away see that the rich and powerful could be valid targets—and worse yet, be praised by the people for it—then they may switch targets.

Fuck off, Luigi was with me and the guy they got they accused of killing those zionists. Not even in the country. We were watching movies. all were fit up to cover for police incompetence..

hes literally a cia asset

>>2585848
State assets are bourgeoisie tools in a bourgeoisie dictatorship. In USA there is facade of independent institutions while in Russia FSB is the bourgeoisie. They call FSB officers the new aristocracy.

>>2585839
He is a capitalist.

he represents an internal contradiction on the right - he is a staunch anti-communist attempting realise popper's "open society" to globalise american hegemony - yet the pro-capitalist right hate him (because he's a jew or something).

>>2580116
Most areas not directly hit by nukes would not have radiation levels high enough to be a direct threat beyond way higher cancer rates in the future, and most hit areas would go back to safer levels after 2 months. From his point of view nuclear winter would force the remaining humans to band together because they would be forced too in a post nuclear world for survival, because the only other option would be death. Though I don't understand how he thinks it would result in socialist communities forming after when I think things would just return to feudalism instead at that point.

Destroying the productive forces is something the capitalists do 🙄.
Communists support the development of the productive forces.

>>2580364
Capitalists' fault for imbuding their mode of production into literally every facet of society, They literally left us no other option. The world will be debased and scoured as the losers claim their prize.

I sort of had a anti-SJW Phase, but I came into it thinking that the ideology of SJWs were more similar to Puritanism/American Christianity than anything else (especially the whole anti-sex/anti-sexual expression/anti-porn wing of feminism). And how SJWs were the unwitting "useful idiots" of corporations, who didn't realize that the corporations were only using "diversity" as a cynical advertising/marketing scheme that wouldn't actually improve the conditions for minorities and women.

I mainly disagreed with Sarkessian because I was under the impression that if video games don't cause violence, then they also don't cause sexism. That and I thought she was just another "Jack Thompson" type of grifter trying to make yet another moral panic over video games like the Satanic Panic in the 1980's with DnD.

I like the idea of the hexayurt. tbh I was just bumping this thread because I found it interesting

Lenin himself was obsessed with the emergence of new media and its uses for popular propaganda purposes. He would probably smack your face for writing such petit bourgeois drivel that is ultimately rooted in idealist cultural pessimism.

>>2577570
yeah, he revised utopian socialism into scientific socialism.

>>2577894
truth nuke

>>2584968
Yeah, closest you can mangling material analysis into an ontology is that one anon's jingle of "only that which matters exists for all intents and purposes," but that's not even close to something Marx said, that's just a new idea.

>>2584290
we have failed the children

>>2584259
>Which is the real and correct way of material analysis?
That's not how knowledge works. The only certainty is that certainty is impossible. There's always a chance that you're completely wrong about everything, always a chance that there's important information that you're simply unaware of. Ultimately, what you believe what you believe because it feels correct to you, because it feels sensible and obvious, and/or fits in well with other things that you feel are sensible and obvious. And at any point, a new piece of key information can introduce itself and topple everything you thought you knew.

As an aside, it's funny to see rightoids get angry when you say this, because it's the only real non-moral justification for freedom of speech.

>>2584259
The good thing about materialism and science is that when we don't have enough data to reach a conclusion, we just admit "we don't know" and continue to investigate that matter further. No bullshittery about how it's a "mystery" or "God did it" or rules against blasphemy for asking questions.
Unless you think I'm painting idealists too harshly here, please remember the Catholic church burnt Copernicus at the stake for suggesting a Heliocentric solar system, and threatened Galileo with the same - only to subject him to a life in house arrest when he recanted. And even then, the church only accepted the Heliocentric model as late as in *1993*.
Besides, idealists themselves are fundamentally split between those who admit a physical reality exists and those who are affectively solipsistic.
If you as an idealist accept that a material reality exists, then you are still left with the same question as materialists on how the world physically operates, because if your God/s made material reality then your God/s must also create a model of physics by which it functions.
And if alternatively you are the type of idealist to deny there is any material reality whatsoever, then you are in a position where you are unable to prove anything at all is truly real beyond your own thoughts, so the question of physical laws is a nonsense and the nature of reality becomes a topic that is not possibly knowable.

>>2584259
>the real and correct way of material analysis?
idk, but Einstein was interested in Spinoza, so his dialectics is probably a good start.
>No teleology answers.
<Teleology is the broad concept of purpose or final cause (a future goal causes present action), often linked to philosophy or divine intent, while teleonomy (coined by Pittendrigh/Mayr) describes the apparent purpose in biological systems, explained by evolved genetic programs and mechanisms (like evolution/natural selection), not a conscious designer or future-driven cause, making it scientifically testable. In short: Teleology = "Why" (ultimate purpose); Teleonomy = "How" (evolved function/mechanism)
Systems and process based thinking is the new paradigm
