Excited for 9th Congress, anons?
About the preparations for the 9th Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea
The revolutionary advance of the entire Party, the entire people, and the entire army toward the historic 9th Congress of the Party, which will set an epochal milestone in increasing the dynamic momentum for the strengthening and development of the Workers' Party of Korea and the comprehensive revival of our socialist state, is accelerating further .

In response to the rising political awareness and fighting spirit of millions of Party members, the entire nation, all the People's Army soldiers, and the youth vanguard, who are proudly entering the glorious Party Congress hall with their labor achievements, preparations are being actively pursued to ensure the success of the Party Congress.

The general assemblies (delegates' meetings) of the grassroots party organizations were held across the party amidst extraordinary political awareness and enthusiasm among party members, followed by city and county party delegate meetings.

The delegates' meetings, attended by members of the city and county party leadership bodies and representatives elected at general meetings (delegates' meetings) of the grassroots party organizations, were focused on comprehensively analyzing and summarizing the work of the city and county party committees to implement the decisions of the 8th Party Congress and the programmatic tasks presented at important party meetings during the general meeting period, and on finding practical ways to improve the future work of the city and county party organizations, which are the political staffs of the respective regions.

The reporters mentioned that Comrade Kim Jong Un presented revolutionary lines and policies for the new era, including the five major party building lines for the new era, organized training sessions for city and county party secretaries for the first time in the history of our Party, and provided programmatic guidelines for city and county party committees to successfully carry out their missions.

Reporters emphasized that groundbreaking progress has been made in the struggle to strengthen the entire Party, as the fighting power of city and county Party organizations has been significantly strengthened under the wise leadership of the Party Central Committee.

The reports emphasized that the secret to achieving the goal lies in the cPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Pyongyang, January 26 (KCNA) – Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, visited the Mansudae Art Studio on January 25 to guide the creation of sculptures to be erected and displayed at the Memorial Museum of Combat Feats at the Overseas Military Operations.

Accompanying him were leading officials of the C.C., WPK and No Kwang Chol, minister of National Defence of the DPRK.

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un was courteously greeted on the spot by leading officials of the Mansudae Art Studio.

He learned about the creation while looking at symbolic tower, main group sculpture, group of subsidiary theme sculptures, decorative engravings for outer wall, etc.

He expressed satisfaction over the fact that the overall creation of sculptures has been conducted on the principle of ensuring the monumental value and symbolism at the highest level in line with the intention of our Party to build the Memorial Museum of Combat Feats at the Overseas Military Operations into an edifice of lasting value which will convey forever the legendary feats and glorious life of admirable sons of the DPRK, the defenders of honour.

He said with his great satisfaction that the symbolic tower of the memorial museum of combat feats was well made in detail.

Many statues of heroes produced in the war for defending the country in the 1950s such as Ri Su Bok, Jo Kun Sil and Kang Ho Yong have been erected in different parts of the country until now, but today figures of ordinary soldiers of our country, who can be seen everywhere, imposingly stand on the peak of honour, the platform of dignity, embodying the political and ideological mightiness peculiar to the Korean People's Army, he said, adding: This is a precious reality proving not only the succession but also the victory of our cause. Distinguished heroism of the victorious wartime generation has been developed into mass heroism of the whole army, and herein lies a proud review of our Party's long history of building a politically and ideologically powerful army.

Saying that our army proved before the times the law of strength, the immutable truth that the strong in spirit always emerge victorious, and this is the absolute strength of our army only that no any other country's army can possess, he underscored the need to ensure high artistic portrayal and delicate perfectPost too long.

The USA is entering similar conditions to those seen from 1968–1972. These include imperial overreach, the normalization of acts of terror domestically, general disdain for the aging ruling class, stagnating wages, and open talk of civil war.
The main difference between the two periods is this: Gen Z has far more worse material conditions than the Boomers ever did, but at the same time far fewer direct casualties from proxy conflicts. American People aren’t dying in Venezuela, and probably won't unless the rest of the Manduro's party mobilizes the country.
Trump knows that if there is ever a draft, or if US troops start dying in large numbers, that would be the final breaking point. This is why he carried out the swift, public kidnapping of Maduro.
He understands that the US is in a crisis of capitalism, and as a result he is using, and has been using foreign threats (including the tariffs ofc), as an outlet for the interal crisis.

He is deverting internal class conflict within the US, outward onto the rest of the globe.

The main question that should be asked is this; since there is not a general organization of labor like the boomers had, will this cause a rise into smaller, but much more revolutionary organizations?

That's why I don't blame dictators for supporting him, he's senile and easy to manipulate.

>>2626379
give it a few more years and we'll be entering into pre-new deal guilded age-like conditions due to AI destroying the white collar middle class. I keep saying that communists just need to wait until AI adoption in firms speeds up and for boomers to completely die off and we're basically right back in the 1920s. All the benefactors of the new deal will be dead leaving nothing behind, and AI will take cushy white collar jobs and make everyone but a select few low skill wagies

Zero class consciousness in USA. Only thing you will get is more liberalism or fascism.

Is it true that the DSA is gonna run candiates for the 2028 national election or is that LARP

they exist to vindicate the social-fascist theory as formulated by Stalin, thats it

>>2668033
yes, most of the members are actually quite principled and do good work. Also despite what this board thinks the vast majority of the DSA aren't socdems

>>2668035
It behaves like a party in all but name. It only lacks a separate ballot line but thats not what makes a party. Most parties in europe run on a chapter style formation.

>>2668502
Yes the goal is to run someone for 2028, obviously not expecting to win but mostly to build more mass appeal and publicity for the party

How far back did he send American leftist movements? Before him Jimmy Carter was talking about more programs, working with the USSR and socialism lite equivalents. Then Ronald Regan comes in, introduces crack, reignites the red scare and perma fucks all relationships with leftist ideology. To the point where the Democrats regressed hard and socialism would be a dirty word until the 2020s. Even then it’s still only used by the most radical mainstream politics.

Which isn't Communism but social fascism. Critical support to Reagan.

Well, the first thing I want to say is, "Mandate, my ass!"
Because it seems as though we've been convinced
That 26% of the registered voters–
Not even 26% of the American people
But 26% of the registered voters–
Form a mandate, or a landslide

21% voted for Skippy
And 3, 4% voted for somebody else
Who might have been running

But, oh yeah, I remember
In this year that we have now declared
The year from Shogun to Ray-Gun

The system doesn't just manufacture consent. It also manufactures dissent and decides which dissidents you're allowed to hear.
Michael Parenti published "Inventing Reality" in 1986. Chomsky's "Manufacturing Consent" came out in 1988.
Chomsky cited Parenti exactly once, for an article, not the book that preceded his own on the same subject.
Same thesis: media serves power. But the books are not the same.
On "conspiracy": Chomsky dismisses structural analysis that names actors as "conspiracy theorism." Parenti: "The alternative to a conspiracy theory is an innocence theory… the CIA is by definition a conspiracy."
Chomsky wanted you to protest… abstractly. Never name the names.
Right-wing anticommunism is obvious. But they needed someone to attack socialism from the left, to gut-punch communism from inside the tent. Enter Chomsky.
Chomsky equates Stalin with Goebbels, called Leninism "counterrevolution."
Parenti documented the real gains: full employment, free healthcare, free education, free housing.
He wrote about how the existence of the USSR forced concessions in the capitalist countries: social programs, worker rights, formal decolonization.
Capital had to compete with an alternative Chomsky made sure you wouldn't defend.
On empire: Chomsky framed US foreign policy as blunders and mistakes. Parenti said "the Iraq war has not been a mistake", it succeeded for the class it serves. Your taxes, your children's lives. Their profits, their reconstruction contracts. Externalized costs, privatized gains.
On intervention: Chomsky supported the NATO no-fly zone over Libya. Parenti opposed it, listed what Libyans would never see again after "liberation."
On elections: Chomsky did the "lesser evil" dance every four years, vote Democrat in swing states. Parenti broke with Bernie Sanders over the bombing of Yugoslavia.
Chomsky got MIT, The Guardian, documentaries, Jacobin. Parenti barely got lecture halls and public access TV.
Parenti was the one they didn't want you listening to, so they put Chomsky in front of you.
