I'd also add in major push for green energy and working with other world powers to help fight climate change, major overhaul of the education system, and protect wikipedia as well

Matx is so outdated and that is not an insult. He died in 1883.

>>2591407
It would be interesting if he was resurrected. He would debunk every "marxist." Ithink he hated "Marxists" in his own lifetime.

Why wouldnt prostitutes as the owners of these brothels have security if the clients are violent? Literally a non-issue unless prostitution is kept illegal and thus keeping prostitutes in the sphere of organized crime.

Danish Intelligence: USA is Already a Security Threat

​<The Danish intelligence service has classified the United States as a security threat for the first time, noting that its unpredictability even toward its allies must be taken into account in future scenarios.

​<The Danish Defence Intelligence Service assessed the matter in its annual intelligence review published today.

​<Furthermore, the report assesses that the United States is now using its economic and technological strength as an instrument of power, even against its allies and partners.

<The story has been reported by the Danish media outlet Politiken and the news agency Bloomberg, among others.

Of course it isn't true, btw, all that jazz predates Judaism, just a schizo zionist talking point with no basis in reality.

Down with the Silicon Valley billionaires. California has the ultimate potential yet we are being sucked dry both figuratively and literally. Massive farming corporations drain our natural water reserves while techbros fuck over our state over and over again.

Immerhin geht's ohne Stottern und um 360°-Verhaspeln. Wenn man Merkel für irgendwas nen Orden verleihen sollte dann dafür, daß sie uns Merz, Koch, Guttenberg & Co. wenigstens für ne Weile vom Hals gehalten hat, wenn auch nicht nachhaltig. Koch ruiniert als Manager in der "Freien Wirtschaft" erfolgreich Baufirmen, Merz hat es leider doch noch ins Kanzleramt geschafft und der Plagiator treibt im Hintergrund als Lebenspartner von K. Reiche erneut sein Unwesen im Wirtschaftsministerium. 2028 dann AfD/CDU-Koalition - schlimmste Zeitlinie, auch wenn das zumindest Teilen der AfD-Wählerschaft die Augen darüber öffnen dürfte, was für ner Pseudoalternative sie aufgesessen sind. Die werden dann 2032 aber eher Freie Sachsen, Wertpapierunion und ähnlichen Krebs wählen, weil bei ihnen keinerlei Klassenbewußtsein vorhanden ist.

Today I learned: Eberhard Liss from Karl-Marx-Stadt in the GDR invented the by neurobiology inspired Robotron, 4 years before Kohonen and Hopfield published their works on Neural Networks.

>>2591126
Interesting. Robotron was the DDR's biggest IT manufacturer. It was a partner of my school for ESP and PA classes, so i assembled PCBs @ Robotron for a short time. Where's that image from? Couldn't source it myself. There's some talk on German LinkedIn about an early AI patent from 1982 also by Eberhard Liss of Robotron. It's called "ASSOZIATIVE KOPPELMATRIX ZUM STRUKTURELLEN LERNEN UND ASSOZIIEREN AUS ERFAHRUNG". It's a neural network for machine learning. The pic you posted seems to be a different patent, but also related to machine learning/AI.

In other news: The German Communist Party just got all their bank accounts terminated. It's the latest case of "debanking" political opposition in Germany, some anti-war activists suffered it before as well, so did prominent rightoid activist Martin Sellner.
That's why communists must fiercely oppose the abolishment of physical/cash money.

>LONDON, Dec 4 (Reuters) - The Japanese yen is too weak, meaning the gap between the currency’s spot rate and what is consistent with Japan’s economic fundamentals will likely narrow in the coming years. That amplifies risks of a sudden unwind of the yen carry trade.

>The USDJPY cross rate is currently around 155, near the top of its multi-decade range of 80 to 160, having experienced an explosive rally since early 2022 when it was trading near 115.

The main driver of this slump has been the yawning yield differentials between the U.S. and Japan.

>While the Federal Reserve and many other central banks were compelled to raise their interest rates sharply in 2022 to combat elevated inflation, the Bank of Japan kept its policy rate negative and maintained full operation of its yield curve control (YCC) program, which manages long-term rates, until March 2024. Only then did it reset its policy target rate back near positive territory at 0.0-0.1%.

>Since then, under Governor Kazuo Ueda, the BOJ has very gingerly raised the policy target rate to the current 0.50%. But that is not only lower than the current U.S. federal funds rate of 3.75-4.00% but also well below Japan’s CPI inflation of 3.0%, meaning Japan’s real interest rate is still deeply negative.

<WRONG TYPE OF INFLATION

>The weak yen has, unsurprisingly, stoked inflation in Japan.

Crisis status?
>>2586219
What does this mean?

>>2586273
The "unrealized loss" part means that the value of the bonds has declined without the bonds being sold. This is happening even as the price to purchase those bonds have also declined, though apparently not enough to make buying them attractive. In essence, no one is buying Japanese bonds from these regional banks, which means they're being loaded with bad assets they can't sell, because they'd lose money on the transaction, thus "realizing" the loss.

I am officially reopening the CRISIS thread.

The Balkan Peninsula, approximately the size of Germany but with only two-thirds of its population, is carved up into numerous independent states. In these tiny states, each possessing its own army, currency, and customs system, or belonging to this or that economic union or military alliance, live numerous nations and peoples, shattered into separate fragments. The borders between these dwarf states were not drawn in accordance with ethnic realities or national needs, but are the result of wars, diplomatic intrigues, and imperialist interests. The Great Powers have always had a direct interest in pitting the Balkan nations and states against one another, only to subject them to their own economic and political influence once they have mutually weakened themselves.

The petty dynasties of political compradors ruling these 'fragments' of the Balkan Peninsula have served, and continue to serve, as levers for European diplomatic intrigues. This entire mechanism, founded on violence and treachery, constitutes an immense burden that suffocates the Balkan nations and stifles their economic and cultural development. The peninsula, richly endowed by nature, is senselessly partitioned; people and goods constantly run up against the barbed wire of state borders. This slicing of nations and states into numerous strips prevents the formation of a unified Balkan economic space, which could serve as the foundation for a great expansion of industry and culture. On top of everything, there is debilitating nationalism, created to maintain division and generating the danger of wars fatal to the peninsula's progress.

The only way out of this national and state chaos is the unification of all the peoples of the peninsula into a single economic and political entity, based on the national autonomy of its constituent parts. Only within the framework of a unified Balkan state can an individual people connect into a single cultural community while enjoying the benefits of a common economic union. Only united Balkan nations can truly stand up to the predatory aspirations of European imperialism.

The state unity of the Balkans can be achieved in two ways: from above, through the expansion of the European Union, neoliberalism, and capitalism—this is the path of oppressing weak nations, a path that consolidates imperialism and militarism; or from bPost too long.

Based. He's exactly what most socialists should strive to achieve. His worker's self management objectively worked great and produced one of the "best" economies in the block in terms of consumers goods and quality of life.
The goal of a federated country with socialist self-management and macro-economic planning is probably the most viable path that we should aspire for

>but muh decline & unemployment
The decline and unemployment were initiated by the Party. In essence, the party would subsidize failing companies and incentivize them to hire workers even when they didn't do anything. This caused massive debt that the party couldn't fund and high taxation within the most productive republics, which eventually enflamed the nationalist tendencies.
Unemployment, which was pictured as an ontologic problem, wasn't as endemic as people tend to think. Slovenia, which was the most succesful republic, never had above 4% unemployment iirc. A competitive market alongside state-owned companies directing the economy could've guaranteed low unemployment for everyone.

French people North of the Loire are all Nazis. French people south of the Loire are sexually insatiable. French communists barely exist. They do not deserve a thread here.

>>2590516
Then by using material dialectical analysis the French communists must live in the Goldilocks zone of the Loire banks after elimination of the local sexually insatiable nazis, the search must start there.

yes, but that involves the Fr*nch doing something sensible, which goes against their genetics.
