The absolute state of the discourse on this board lately is pathetic. It’s almost 2026 and I’m still seeing "socialists" parroting CIA talking points like they’re reading from the Black Book of Communism. It’s time to filter the radlibs and the ultras who care more about moral purity than winning.

If we actually apply historical materialism instead of utopian wish-casting, it becomes obvious that Stalin and Deng aren't just "good" – they are the two greatest practitioners of Marxism in history because they did what Western leftists refuse to do: they prioritized the survival of the revolution over the approval of the bourgeoisie.

1. Stalin: The Shield
Stop crying about "authoritarianism" and read Losurdo. His Critique of a Black Legend completely exposes how the "millions dead" narrative is just recycled Nazi war propaganda that the West adopted during the Cold War. The "Holodomor" wasn't a genocide; it was a combination of kulak sabotage and cyclical drought that the Soviets eventually ended through collectivization. Stalin understood that you don't survive capitalist encirclement with good vibes. He took a country of wooden plows and turned it into a nuclear superpower in a single generation. He purged the fifth columnists because he knew a war of annihilation was coming. Without that "authoritarianism," the Wehrmacht would have wiped the Slavs off the map.

2. Deng: The Sword
The hate for Deng is even more embarrassing. You guys claim to care about the poor but hate the man who oversaw the greatest poverty alleviation program in human history? Deng understood that "poverty is not socialism." He developed the productive forces necessary to compete with the West. And regarding 1989: He saved China from the fate of the USSR. Tiananmen was a textbook color revolution, backed by Western NGOs and intelligence. Deng saw Gorbachev selling out to Pizza Hut and realized that sometimes you have to crush a counter-revolution to preserve the Dictatorship of the Proletariat. Because he had the spine to do that, China is now mogging the US economy while Russia spent the 90s getting looted by oligarchs.

TL;DR
Parenti said it best in Blackshirts and Reds: you people want a revolution without a revolution. You want a clean, safe process that never makes mistakes and never exercises power. That doesn't exist. Stalin secured the state; Deng secured the economy. If you reject them, you’re not Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

The Soviet Union opened its very first large toilet paper factory in… 1969
And toilet paper remained in deficit for the whole Soviet period, right until the end.
People would buy Pravda and Komsomol newspapers exclusively to use as toilet paper.
In 1981, a Soviet plane crashed and killed 16 Admirals and Generals because it was overloaded with hoarded toilet paper lol.

SHOKË ENVER HOXHA GENERAL
I feel like the legendary bunker man is severely under represented in leftypol. I'm pretty sure there was must be a few Hoxhaists here. While I do not know much about Comrade Enver, the little I have read of him is very interesting. For example, his criticism of China and eclecticisms like blending religion and communism (islamic communism e.g).
Let this be a warm bunker for learning and discussing about the Mountain of Tirana.

Socialist Albania was the biggest loss of the late 20th century.
How did it not survive like the DPRK? Did he go too hard on Mao? Should he have studied the "bourgeoisie have a chance to reemerge within the party"? Surely Cuba was more brittle or was the European glowies that more aggressive than the US during that period?
Or have time not elapsed long enough for relevant intelligence agency documents to do with that having been declassified or leaked?

>>2637231
It wouldn't have survived. The implosion of the socialist bloc was a transnational event and can't be understood at a country level. All the countries went more or less through the same process; political/economic liberalization, massive social unrest, western agitation, elections and final collapse of the communist parties. At a time when everyone was openly embracing capitalism it was a matter of time until Albania fell. I guess DPRK, Cuba, Vietnam, etc had the geopolitical advantage of being far away from the chaos but even then they got hit hard and barely made it through.

Leftists in general at least in the West have an obsession with their own intelligence and it makes them incapable of getting along with eachother when every Leftist thinks he's the smartest most ideologically flawless lefty since Lenin. The idea of "agreeing to disagree" just seemingly doesn't exist in the western Left. Everything has to be a fight to the death.

Venezuela's acting leader calls for opening oil industry to foreign investment
Acting-President Rodriguez described cash from the oil sales flowing into two sovereign wealth funds, one to support crisis-stricken health services and another to bolster public infrastructure, much of which was built under Mr Maduro’s legendary predecessor, Hugo Chavez, but has since deteriorated. While Ms Rodriguez slammed the kidnapping of Mr Maduro and referred to a “stain on our relations,” she also promoted the resumption of diplomacy with the US. She said: “Let us not be afraid of diplomacy. “I ask that politics not be transformed, that it not begin with hatred and intolerance.”

Trump administration delays plan to withhold wages for student loan borrowers in default

The shift reverses course on earlier plans to restart wage garnishments this month after a pandemic-era pause. Nicholas Kent, the department’s higher education chief, said the agency is “committed to helping student and parent borrowers resume regular, on-time repayment, with more clear and affordable options.”

Why Keir Starmer Went to Bat for Israeli Football Hooligans
Three months ago, the West Midlands police force decided to exclude fans of the Israeli football club Maccabi Tel Aviv from attending a match against Aston Villa in Birmingham, Britain’s second-largest city. They justified the move on the grounds that a violent element within the club’s support base posed a threat to public safety. The British political establishment has responded with a protracted frenzy of hysteria and bad faith, culminating in a successful push by the Labour home secretary, Shabana Mahmood, to oust the chief constable of the West Midlands police, Craig Guildford. Mahmood also wants to bring local police forces under Home Office control — a move that will hand Nigel Farage’s hard-right Reform party a vital tool if it manages to form a government in the coming years. When the controversy first erupted back in October, Jonathan Liew of the Guardian observed that it was “a fascinating case study into the instincts of our political and media class,” betraying their tolerant or downright sympathetic attitude toward the virulent racism expressed by Maccabi Tel Aviv fans. The development of the saga since then has been even more instructive.

There is an unspoken agreement between US and Iran to maintain the delicate balance of power in the region.

Losing Islamist Iran period means losing Iraq to a power vacuum.

Losing Islamist Iran to communists is doomsday scenario for capitalists, the resource rich region is filled with unpopular regimes and immiserated workers. Iran and Iraq (the most susceptible for revolution) alone make up a quarter of the world oil supply. The stakes are too high to allow an unpredictable mass movement (that cannot be entirely controlled) to overthrow the regime.

Iran poses zero threat to western imperialism, in fact in places like Iraq and Lebanon it is the lever that is maintaining it. Decades of wheeling and dealing through backchannels have exposed this myth for what it is - a false dichotomy that sets the ideological framework for US and Iranian imperialism in the region, so-called "Axis of Resistance" and "Forces of Order"

Does this mean they're in agreement on everything and Iran is secretly run by da juice? Of course not, that's conspiratorial and Kautskyist nonsense. They're united in so far as their class interests meet, mostly in suppressing workers and maintaining the status quo.

Will this last forever? No, eventually a war will break out due to capital's growing contradictions and the need to counter overproduction through destruction. The region and the world broadly have yet to fall into designated camps for such event to happen, that will spark the a third global imperialist war.

Don't fall into this false dichotomy, or prepare to be disappointed. Learn from the communist parties in the region who have reached this conclusion.

No war but class war

There are several parties more disciplined and organized than anywhere else in the world. It is unclear when/if they can turn into a mass movement.

>There is an unspoken agreement between US and Iran to maintain the delicate balance of power in the region.
Sorry Anon, but there is literally nothing to suggest this.
>Losing Islamist Iran period means losing Iraq to a power vacuum.
Since when does the American Empire fear a power vacuum? They deliberately created them in Libya, Syria, and Somalia. A power vacuum is better than a hostile state.
>Iran poses zero threat to western imperialism
This is obviously untrue, otherwise there wouldn't be armed conflict between Iranian and Western proxies, or between Western states and Iran itself. Let's not forget that Israel and Iran fought a war less than a year ago. Was this just for funsies? Did the US bomb the Houthis for a lark?
>They're united in so far as their class interests meet
Completely ahistorical. Capitalists will side with communists if they feel that other capitalists are a bigger threat to their interests, and vice versa. Britain and America considered Germany a bigger threat than the USSR and so they formed an alliance against the Nazis. China considered the USSR a bigger threat than America so they formed an alliance with them against the Soviets. In Angola communist Cuban troops protected Exxon-operated oilfields from CIA backed UNITA contras. Politics always produces a wide range of alliances and antagonisms that cross class lines.
>a false dichotomy that sets the ideological framework for US and Iranian imperialism in the region
A completely absurd statement. Iran does not have the level of financialization, trade footprint, or capital export to be an imperialist country, i.e. a net beneficiary of the world imperialist system. Imperialism isn't a policy, its an economic system and only those who dominate and benefit from it are imperialist.
>The region and the world broadly have yet to fall into designated camps for such event to happen
They have fallen into these camps, you're just insisting that they haven't and that we should ignore what we see before us in favour of belief in some kind of secret cooperation.

The Simón Bolívar International Brigade is an initiative by comrades from the Latin American continent in defense of Venezuela.

Our goal is to raise €5,500 to cover the travel costs of 9 to 12 comrades to Caracas, where they will be incorporated into the popular militias of the MRT (Revolutionary Tupamaro Movement).

From this first group of combatants and through propaganda by action, our intention is to expand the Brigade and begin bringing comrades from other countries and continents.

Imageboards have of course been filled with nazis for a fuck ton of time from even the start, but most people agree it mainly started when moot added /news/ then all the chudcels flooded the rest of the site, then created /pol/ and the rest is history.

With that being said, how do we realistically combat the mass grooming of people into nazism through imageboards? The sharty is becoming the new 8chan but with way more cultural influence on the wider internet and the rest of the population is filled with young children, we have already seen solomon (a mass shooter that was a black man yet he was also a white supremacist with sharty connections) commit a mass shooting. With that being said clearly a lot of these young men are isolated and angry, doxxing random literal WHOS because they are trans, or even doing raids that help the federal government because the site is influenced by glowies. They even raided our very booru 2 days ago, and ILLEGAL CONTENT was posted (this was done by foodist nazis not soyteens but still scary that it’s that prevalent with their raids).

And with the thought on raids we can see some of these young people are being groomed into actual pedophile nazi communities but the sharty staff and wiki are so up their asses that they can’t see they have ideological similarities with the nazi foodists and that’s why they surround them.

They have crushed /leftysoy/ and banned many leftists on their wiki including me, I think this is gonna evolve into something much worst if we don’t do anything.

Quick run-down: Unlike previous mass protests in Iran the current ones were caused primarily by crushing economic conditions rather than civil rights, and so they carry undeniable proletarian character and potential. The true scale of the protests is hard to confirm due to conflicting imperialist propaganda, however the staggering death toll in such a short period dwarfs the previous protests.
