Governments advance universal digital identification, mass surveillance and censorship

<The governments of the United States, the European Union, Britain and Australia are moving in coordination to abolish online anonymity and impose universal systems of digital identification. Under the pretext of “protecting children,” they are constructing a framework of surveillance and censorship aimed at countering the political radicalization of workers and youth.

all good people are anti-TERF. independent of their distaste for transgender people, TERFism is an ugly movement of stupid people.

(and not for no reason will you generally find that any idiot who starts with TERFism drifts down a weird right-wing or de-facto right-wing rabbit hole until they're asking why everyone's so annoyed that ICE are shooting people in the back in self defense.)

(but "we should accept stupid arbitrary hierarchies just so we don't all sacrifice one another" isn't going to wash, mr. thiel. we will find new ways of differentiating people based on mutable characteristics, and the coalition of monsters and idiots fighting to retain their arbitrary distinctions glibly: the trump coalition and their adjacents and hangers-on and emulators will lose in the end.)

So, in a dazzling display of altruism and concern for the global working class, the United States Department of Labor has generously decided to throw $23.4 million at … Mexico. Yes, Mexico. This money is to “strengthen labor law enforcement” so that Mexican businesses play nice with their workers under the USMCA (T-MEC).

The goal of the grand plan is to empower workers to file complaints and use the treaty’s Rapid Response Labor Mechanism when dodgy practices pop up.

Most of the money will be handed to a couple of U.S. groups — Partners of the Americas and Creative Associates International — who’ll go do the heavy lifting, apparently. According to the U.S. government, this isn’t just about Mexican workers, it’s also about giving hardworking Americans a fighting chance in the global marketplace. Isn’t that noble?

Wrong. You have deviated so far from Marxism-Leninism. Angkar did nothing wrong. Angkar eliminated only bad people, tiny minority (2%). Vietnam colonized Kampuchea as compradors to social fascist imperialism. Communists created united front against The social fascist. All freedom loving peoples united om all fronts to fight against social fascist imperialist russian revisionist monopolists.

Insane that there are still people ITT buying into the Vietnamese propaganda when we literally have captured interviews with Pol Pot's comrades where they still profess faith in communism and regret that modern Cambodia has become a pro-Western capitalist hellhole. In fact, it is the modern Cambodian government that disarmed, arrested, and jailed the remaining Khmer Rouge leaders, proving that the nonsense about the Khmer Rouge being "CIA" was complete nonsense.

>it is that all the interesting stuff has evaporated.
Yeah that's partly because of the two coups in a year and the following years-long reign of insane abusive moderators (yes, in pasquale's case, literally insane, and had a couple of bastards defending it because it 'was funny'). Most of the creative people left because some fuckers tried too hard to change it into their own party.

Newfags don't post PDFs anymore. They don't turn anything cool or creative on this website into a meme, only reposting twitter and streamer shit you can find anywhere. They probably don't know shit about Albania. And it's (mostly) not their fault.

Who among us is not merely a consumer of culture, but a producer of it, or even a redistributer of it?

I am exaggerating a little for effect - for example I have found some of my reaction images reposted recently.

Seriously, I remember the days, and this was post-8chan by the way'', where OP would ask a question, smart or dumb, and get books thrown at them instead of just kneejerk /pol/shit replies. Links to marxists.org, uploaded PDFs, paragraph quotes, or just the names and chapters.

It's more efficient than retyping an answer we already wrote down a hundred years ago, and it teaches a kiddo to fish. Making people read plebfilters out trolls who aren't here to learn, and gives those who do want to learn a foothold to answer their own questions.

Unlimited Ammo and Unbreaking Gun - A Soldier's Wet Dream
A speculation on how such design and military technology can be achieved.

First of all I want to start this awesome thread by stating the obvious, all things are finite, but so are we, a soldier only has to have enough ammo to last his own lifetime or the time of the insurgency / war he is in. The logistical problem comes with the inability to carry or even possess such large quantities of ammunition. The obvious solution to this would be to try and utilize the environment as ammunition, but in handiwork this has only resulted in primitive and disadvantaged creations such as bows and arrows which are long due in the history of war.
So we must make a weapon that can be carried which can turn common parts of the environment into projectiles.
That would of course require a lot of energy that has to come from somewhere. All ammunition in guns for the most part carries its own charge in the form of gunpowder. So we would have to replicate the same reaction via some other method to occur entirely within the weapon itself and not the ammunition projectiles being fired.
This means we have to research on a way to create a chemical reaction out of the common environment that can easily be instigated and replicated to act as the charge for the necessary explosive reaction for projectiles to be fired.

With that I begin the first opening question: How can we do it?
You figure it out. I will try to figure it out on my own. I will share my findings with only likeminded people.

Now for the latter part of the title: Unbreaking Gun
I can safely say we have practically found the solution to that. Much of the old military equipment and commodities produced within the USSR have been designed to last a long time. Many guns from even WW2 are still in circulation and being utilized in wars throughout the world. We can study and copy the successful of said gun designs and even if imperfect (like everything in life), the design can at least be made optimal for repairments on the go.

I will end this opening with a third part: Portability.

Libertarians come in many flavors. Even Charlie Kirk called himself a libertarian once. Most of them are irredeemable, craving to oppress women & minorities - terrible people, who ALWAYS slide towards fascism.

However, there's a smaller subset of them who value freedom above everything else and despise surveillance. Are we their closest ally? Because libertarians on the right just cling to Palantir, Israel and horrific child abusers. How do we integrate them? What should be done to integrate them?
3 posts omitted.

on the whole i would just say: be civil. discuss points of agreement and ignore the rest where you know you're going to go back and forth in circles. instead of trying to convert them, try to shift their position to be more agreeable on the margin. (e.g. have them hate the actually-existing retards who're doing un-libertarian things in office, not the basically irrelevant left.)

although my favorite libertarian type is Richard Hanania, who isn't really a libertarian as such, or who at least straddles the line having been a former Fascist. What redeems him is that he's willing to say what few others are, and to analyze it in depth: today's right wingers are stupid, joining the right wing will actively negate your innate intelligence and make you a total fucking idiot, and when you look in depth this is really, really obvious.
left wing people read more right-wing news publications than right-wing people (because right wingers don't fucking read! they watch tv/youtube/podcasts, they do not read, they are stupid! whenever you're wondering "why do they believe this patently false thing?" it's all well and good to go ah, manufacturing consent, ah, their class interests, but at some point you do have to lump on: because they are stupid and malicious.)
it's funny to watch someone reach a number of basic liberal positions (like abolishing ICE and prosecuting the people who worked for it) starting from very right-wing premises. it's funny to see a rightist who started as a racist autism score freak, then looked seriously at who was around them and went: hang on, the racial thing is overblown and (thanks to basic economics) irrelevant but holy shit there is a massive "human capital" problem on the right.

How exactly do we successfully fight against and reverse Gen Alpha brainrot?

https://youtube.com/shorts/h2i3cGyzNKo

This stuff is becoming alarming. When I was a little kid in the 90s I would watch stuff that had actual substance to it (think: Disney renaissance, Don Bluth films, TV shows like Arthur). Plus our parents made an effort to read to us and get us looking at science books and history books for kids. When I babysit my neighbours’ kids who are eight and six (both boys) I’m horrified by how stupid they are. They can’t read at all. They can’t play musical instruments. They don’t do arts and crafts. They have the vocabularies of preschool-aged kids. They can’t do math and the eight-year old asks me to do his math homework for him. Both of them are either glued to their iPads or glued to watching YouTube on TV. It’s sad as hell. What do?

>Most people have something wrong with them and most people are social animals who survive in a social setting rather than isolated. The meme of surviving by yourself in self-imposed solitary confinement, in nature, the literal Robinson Crusoe gold standard of bourgeois economists, it doesn't make any sense, and the fact that we construct our mental health diagnoses around it also doesn't make sense.

This is a full blown deflection and highly belittling of the disabled. You’re basically pulling an “all lives matter” statement.

>>2602627
It's a socialization crisis. The old moral norms and values will no longer apply to a generation that's been raised entirely online from birth. The problem is, in order for communities to function you need some kind of predictability, since predictability is the basis of trust, and gen alpha iPad kids will have to learn some kind of moral norms in order to ensure that predictability. The reasons classrooms are hell and so many teachers are quitting now is because gen alphas have very sporadic behaviours and can't be told to sit down and do their math worksheets.

>>2666970
It's the modern day "stranger danger". Back in the day, kids used to have a lot more freedom. Look at how kids growing up in NYC in the 70s used to be raised by the entire apartment building. Neighbours all took care of each others' kids. Today most parents would freak at the very idea of having their neighbours look after their kids for a few hours.

I hate to be "that comrade" but I also blame some of this on daycares. Parents who have to work stick their kids in daycares where their kids' worlds shrink.



 

Have there been any studies done deconstructing the left-to-right ("Saul-to-Paul") political conversion narrative that the right-wing loves to throw around?

I'm talking about people like former CPUSA members who turned state like Whittaker Chambers, Bella Dodd, and Louis Budenz; neocons like Irving Kristol, Norman Podhoretz, and David Horowitz (rest in piss); or contemporary "conversion" stories like those of Abby Johnson. I'm obviously talking about Americans here but I'm sure you can name plenty of examples from other countries. What psychological factors cause someone to abandon leftism and fully embrace the right, and even worse, turn on their former comrades?

Is it simply the case that they upheld leftism as a dogma, so when their "god" died they found another god? Is it because they were always authoritarian assholes and embraced the right when the right gave them a better outlet for being authoritarian assholes? Was it because they found that the left was moving in a direction they didn't approve of, so they gradually became rightist? Or, using the narrative they themselves most often parrot, they felt "betrayed" by the left so in turn they betrayed the left?

Also, why do we rarely see any prominent right-wingers turning to the left?

its funny that you mention narcissistic parents since my father allegedly exhibited NPD characteristics(ofc this is just other family members with no medical knowledge making these allegations) and I was a self-identified AnCom throughout high school until getting some more life experience and reading some more theory. I could definitely see narcissistic helicopter parents causing Anarchism to have some more appeal to there kids but what really set me down the path of anarchism and marxism was being really into the environment and realizing a healthy ecosystem and "healthy" capitalist economy are incompatible with one another. That being said I haven't really organized in anarchist spaces so I can't really speak on them sharing traits with their Nmoms.

>>2664792
>I get the impression many of these Dodd and Horowitz types are the same people that engage in Sealioning at every function they appear at and were basically the Leninhats of there org until interpersonal drama causes them to denounce the entire movement for not glazing them enough.
Yes, they're usually the overly self-righteous ones who feel entitled to overstep/violate the boundaries of others on the basis of some "justice sensitivity" bullshit, then when comrades get sick of them they jump into another group.

My favs are the opposite.

>>2651578
>Bella Dodd was a validation junkie, not unlike most of those insecure girls on Tumblr. She was an Italian immigrant who always felt out-of-place, joined CPUSA because she thought communism would help America, and became a successful labour organizer in the party doing legal work for unions. Then, after she got purged for Browderism, she became a born-again Catholic thanks to Fulton Sheen and started snitching on everyone in CPUSA thinking she'd be loved as an "American hero" if she did so.

>Don't know anything about Budenz except Fulton Sheen converted him and his wife to Catholicism and got them to rat people out too.

why is catholicism so attractive to right wingers

>>2676688
In the cases of Budenz and Dodd, they were brought into the Catholic Church by Fulton Sheen, who was connected to Catholic anti-communist groups.



 

A dictatorship of the proleteriat will never work because a system where the proleteriat has no say and doesnt choose their own leader will result in the government of a socialist country not actually being beholden to the proleteriat at all. And thus has no incentive to or even need to act in their interest.
