/leftypol/ - Leftist Politically Incorrect

Happy International Romani Day! I don't actually know much about them other than they experience terrible open discrimination by racists and the pig force. So I think it's important to recognise them as a discriminated group in European countries. They should have an SSR.

If anyone has good books on Romani history then please post them!

>France has incorporated Linux desktops into its national digital-sovereignty strategy. DINUM, France’s Interministerial Digital Directorate, announced a transition from Windows to Linux workstations.

>According to an official government press release, this change is part of a broader initiative to reduce reliance on non-European digital technologies (source, in French).

>The government’s statement is notably direct. The section on workstation evolution confirms that DINUM will replace Windows with Linux systems. The press release also requires each ministry, including public operators, to develop a plan by autumn 2026 addressing desktop systems, collaboration tools, antivirus software, AI, databases, virtualization, and network equipment.

>This initiative extends beyond a standard desktop migration. France positions Linux adoption as part of a broader policy focused on sovereignty, interoperability, and reducing dependence on foreign vendors. As the announcement comes directly from DINUM, which oversees digital strategy across ministries, it holds greater significance than a local pilot or isolated administrative project.

>And as you can see, this is a big deal. It is not a leak, rumor, or unofficial plan. It is a formal declaration from one of Europe’s largest governments, explicitly designating Linux as the replacement for Windows workstations as part of a broader interministerial strategy.

>The extent of the transition will depend on ministry-level plans due later this year, but France has clearly made Linux desktops a key component of its national digital-sovereignty agenda. For now, there are no specific details about which distributions will be used, as that decision will apparently come a bit later.

So ultra rare France W?
I wish China does the same, shame how many Asians are ultra cucks to Microsoft besides North Korea obviously since they use Red Star OS.

Nations will stop existing under communism, under communism, the globe will be defined by sectors for the sole purpose of administration, sectors defined by the grid panel composed of meridians and parallels with small compromises of a few kilometes so cities aren't split in two. The idea of nation, culture, borders and so on are going to be labeled as reactionary and any and all individuals or groups that decide to fight this will be shot. The concept of "indigenous populations" and "natives" are going to be an irrelevant thing of the past, and people will be transfered between sectors every so often and as labour requirements demand. The concept of ethnicity will be abolished

That's it, that's the whole post.

"Communist" party
>Doesn't propose anything to fix the underlying issue of a decade long economic crisis
>Called people protesting after the murder of a 15 year old by a police officer "hood wearers," a greek pejorative for anarchists and/or activists
>When the New Democracy was on the verge of complete fascist collapse, the national television channels were changed and started transmitting from a private signal, susceptible to outside interference. When Syriza compared the channel to soviet-era programming and iconography, mentioning bolek and lolek, the official publication of the KKE, 902, immediately rebutted to defend the cartoon, throwing hands about how kids today watch the capitalist propaganda of…spongebob squarepants.
>Has consistently been perpetuating the myth that homosexuality and transgender identity are a bourgeois degeneracy, shifting back and forth between members between protecting their rights, or saying that "babies need a mom and dad!"
Soviet nostalgists have no place in modern politics and are actively detrimental to leftist ideals. They support the status quo and exist purely because they survived the greek civil war. They only get any sort of vote due to their history, they barely count as an opposition party.

US military bases in Gulf 'useless' after Iranian strikes, experts say
Access to these sites - some of which are logistical hubs and not necessarily active bases - is tightly controlled by both the Pentagon and the Gulf states themselves: Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Qatar, and Oman. Last month, they banned the photography and dissemination of any videos of missiles in their skies, leading many to speculate whether the motive was to shield US bases as they launched attacks on Iran.

Hamas presses for full Israeli withdrawal, delegation visits Cairo to ensure truce holds
The delegation also raised concerns over the escalating Israeli violations as well as the deteriorating humanitarian situation. The delegation was headed by Hamas chief Khalil al-Hayya, who pushed for the advancement of the agreement. The development comes as mediators seek to contain escalating tensions and the potential collapse of the truce, which came into effect on 10 October.

Thoughts on basic logics video? Seems like he doesn’t understand fascism, is one and thinks it’s “not left or right” it’s absolutely far right

Would there be museums under communism? If so, how would the upkeep costs and such be handled? Please explain like I have a donkey brain (I really do).

Heads up: I’m Italian, and as such I’m genuinely fascinated by how often American leftists have an utopian view of Europe, supposedly for its egalitarian and “socialist” policies, which actually runs counter to my experience. They might as well be the EU’s strongest soldier, believing in the EU more than the average European.
Granted, I never lived in the part of “Europe“ people talk about when using the term (which usually refers to just north-west Europe), but I do think Americans’ perception of what modern European countries (particularly those west of the Berlin Wall) are very distorted. For the sake of argument, I’ll be focusing on the EU.

For starters, both world wars and the instability of the European spring of 1848 has led to a lack of development of negative rights as well as the notion to more democracy = censorship, which is why censorship is more normalised in Europe than in America which has the first amendment. The biggest example would be the ECHR’s article 10 which makes it clear that freedom of speech isn’t absolute, which is a good example of how illiberal tendencies can exist in a seemingly “liberal” land. On the top of that, inequality is high in Europe, especially in terms of the holding power of the former aristocratic classes on European politic. As an example, Britain still has appointed lords even though the nobles’ powers have diminished a long ago, and by the time the French Revolution ended most of the aristocrats assimilated themselves into France’s political machine, whilst in Scandinavia wealth inequality is high.

As for racism, I would say that Europe is worst based on both data and personal experience. Remember Shiloh Hendrix? Well, if she did the same thing she did but in any European country, no one would bat an eye. Remember, hate speech laws are just lawfare, they’re not about “protecting minorities“ as its supporters claim. But it’s not just the micro level since hiring discrimination and lack of access to meaningful resources means many immigrants that weren’t wealthy on arrival (e.g., expats) are stuck on welfare and meagre wage or none. This in contrast to America where immigrants are treated better socially in spite of the lack of fringe benefits like universal healthcare.

I mean, Denmark is robbing refugees as a deterrent policy, France is suppressing Islamic religiosity while letting tradCaths scot-free (at least from an outsiders’ POV) to enforce its concept of state secularism (Post too long. Click here to view the full text.
