This guy's video is wrong, he's wrong, Stalin was a marxist, its just that marxism itself goes against Marx - Marx himself rejected "marxism" and "marxists". Stalin was indeed a marxist, a socialdemocrat like the other "marxists".
>muh starvation
He didn't eat the grain or cause famines on purpose.
>muh collectivization
Collectivization is necessary, what the fuck is this NEP babble?
>muh peasants
Fuck the peasants. The workers are the revolutionary subject.
>muh kulaks
Death to kulaks.
>anyone who owned a property and didn't want to give it up
Well deserved death.

The gravedigger had many issues, but this video is full of shit. The channel seems like a retarded trot.

Trump puts onus on Iran’s authorities as they project hardened stance
Iran’s authorities and state media project that they are less interested than before the war in negotiations with the United States if they go beyond their accepted terms, as mediated talks failed to materialise in Pakistan.Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi met senior Pakistani officials in Islamabad on Saturday and left for Oman, to be later bound for Russia. The top diplomat, who was not joined by Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf like in a previous round of negotiations earlier this month, said he was “yet to see if the US is truly serious about diplomacy”.

Pennsylvania court overturns limits on Medicaid coverage for abortions
A Pennsylvania court on Monday said that the state’s constitution guarantees a right to abortion while striking down a decades-long law banning the use of state Medicaid funds to cover abortion costs. The ruling by a divided seven-judge panel of the appellate-level Commonwealth Court is a major victory for Planned Parenthood and abortion clinic operators who first sued Pennsylvania over its Medicaid funding restrictions in 2019.

US appeals court allows Texas to enforce migrant arrest law
The New Orleans-based 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on a 10-7 vote overturned a 2024 injunction that had blocked enforcement of the law, which Democratic then-President Joe Biden's ​administration had challenged on the grounds that immigration is the prerogative of the federal government.

Workers in Santa Clara County, California, put on leave amid child welfare crisis
The alleged sexual assault and killing of 2-year-old Jaxon Juarez — who the Department of Family and Children’s Services placed in the home of a cousin with a criminal record of child endangerment — marks the third high-profile child death under Santa Clara County’s watch in three years. Eight county employees connected to Juarez’s case file were placed on leave between April 8 and April 16. County Executive James Williams on Thursday said that number has jumped to 10, pending personnel investigations.

The New Democratic Machine — And The Billionaires Behind It
The scandal was minimal, a blip in a Democratic primary race in New York’s Hudson Valley. But the incident was an early sign of a powerful new political machine playing an unprecedented role in Democratic primaries. The problem emerged in February. Jackie Rosa, a political communications strategist, had been fielding press questions for Cait Conley, a combat veteran vying for New York’s 17th congressional district, as though she were a campaign spokesperson. But when controversy erupted after Rosa circulated a memo bashing Conley’s opponent as a “far left political operative,” the strategist claimed she’d mounted the attack on behalf of an outside group, not the campaign. However, Rosa’s email sign-off listed an affiliation with a different political group — and her email address was tied to yet another organization, a shadowy Delaware consultancy. Four separate entities, all tied to a single strategist, seemingly collaborated on messaging against a candidate, even though campaign finance law theoretically limits close coordination between campaigns and outside spending vehicles. What exactly was going on? All of the organizations, it turns out, belonged to a new dark-money-backed enterprise of unparalleled scale and complexity. The influence network brands itself as boosting Democrats’ electoral prospects ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. But the project’s true ambitions go much further.

Ireland: fuel protests show the way
“At this stage Micheál Martin is not in control. The people of Ireland are in control. They have every motorway blocked in Ireland. They have businesses shut down. […] This is a revolution.” These words by James Geoghegan – agricultural contractor and prominent spokesperson of the Dublin’s protest – broadcast across national radio waves at the height of the fuel protests, paint a vivid picture of the mood that reigned at the blockades that began on 7 April. Dublin city centre was at a standstill for almost a week as farmers and hauliers who had been stretched beyond breaking Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

"The dominant youth archetype of 2020s suburban and provincial America. The dinergoth sits at the mainstream convergence of once-niche culture: alt fashion, geek fandoms, and downward mobility.

Formed online via Discord, TikTok, and YouTube, dinergoths mix formerly subcultural aesthetics like goth, emo, piercings, and dyed hair into mass-retail fashion. They openly display interests once seen as nerdy or deviant: anime, queerness, cosplay, furry culture, BDSM. Neurodivergent diagnoses are worn as identity markers.

Unlike earlier subcultures, dinergoths aren't rebellious or ironic. Hentai and stagnation are just facts of life. Cultural touchstones include Deltarune, Hazbin Hotel, Genshin Impact, VTubers, streamers, and drawing "OCs". They practice queerness as default, learned through fandom rather than via theory.

Dinergoths are suburban or rural, often working in service, warehouse, or anonymous office jobs. More Buffalo than Brooklyn. They prioritize comfort, creative hobbies, and online community over career status. Content creation is often seen as an exit out of a disenchanted world.

Dinergoth traits now permeate Gen Z mass culture, but the archetype is clearest in the pierced, anime-addled, downwardly mobile alt-prole who thrives in the stagnation and placelessness of the American hinterlands."
The person who came up with this is a rightoid so he focuses on the "overweight green haired non-binary walmart prole who spends xer time off talking on hazbin hotel fandom discords" type, but it also largely applies to the Samantha Rupnow types as well if you swap a few words around.

COMRADES OF LEFTYPOL, ERIK HOUDINI NEEDS YOUR SOLIDARITY
Houdini has been arrested.
https://gofund.me/826555a5f

He is in deep Florida country. Anons in Florida, please do what you can for him. Those who can make online payments, please help him.

Pasting the message from his comrades:
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
TL;DR Our friend Erik is in jail for allegedly trolling a right wing influencer, Kaitlin Bennet, and we’re putting together a bail fund for him. If we don't get him out in 10 days or locate a foster the local animal shelter may put down his dog.



Hey everyone. We do not come here lightly and it is with a heavy heart that we come to you and ask for monetary assistance. Not for ourselves but for a dear friend of ours who was arrested Tuesday February 24th 2026 by the police.

Sometime in November of 2025, not long after the Kirk assassination, our friend allegedly got into a conflict on Instagram with a right wing influencer, Kaitlin Bennet, when she visited their city. In this conflict he allegedly referenced Kirk's assassination and that was enough for her to take these as threats on her life and call the police on him and an investigation was conducted where they allegedly found evidence of plans to harass Bennet next time she visits their City.

did you even read the post you are replying to? you're ignoring it and trying to recenter the conversation on the fake question. he killed nobody directly, but the great thing about bourgeois propagandists is they kill people indirectly, through the machinery they set in motion, with the bonus of plausible deniability and distance through abstraction. when the abu ghraib torture scandal happened, it was the people who did the torture and murder directly who were punished, but never those who gave the order, and never the media who spent years fomenting the hatred of of all muslims and the conflation of muslims with "terrorists" which made the scandal possible.

>>2792400
>If you pay taxes, you fund the US military, so does that make you share in the guilt of those same murders?
Yes I do, and yes I share in the guilt.
>If so, why don't all US citizens deserve to die?
I already accept that if anything ever happens to me, even if I am killed, it will not be 1/10000000000th of what the people my government terrorizes suffer. So I am able to accept that reality.

>>2792426

So how many people did Charlie Kirk kill indirectly?
How many people have we all killed by indirect margins?

Why not go back to the beginning? All sin entered the world when Adam and Eve ate from the Fruit, or when Pandora opened the Box. But this is relevant to what I was writing; where does responsibility begin and end? You are talking about flimsy abstractions like "the media". Who is "the media"? News writers? News anchors? Who are we putting in the gulag, exactly? You are getting lost in the sequence of causation, as though describing how the flap of a butterfly's wings contributes to a hurricane. But as I say, lets go with it - why are you not sharing in the collective guilt? Why are we not all responsible?

Honest question (NOT trolling):

What exactly should the western left do for Palestine that they haven’t already been doing for the past 2.5 years (or even longer for that matter)?

I’ve seen Palestinian activists say “we need to do more to stop the genocide” more times than I can count. But what should we feasibly be doing that we’re not doing already? Boycotts? Mass protests? Blockading arms sales? Policing your peers’ consumer habits so they’re compliant with BDS? Making lists of politicians who receive money from AIPAC and voting them out? We’ve done this already. In NYC, there was a mass protest every fucking weekend where we were told to “escalate for Gaza” yet we never escalated; I don’t even fucking know what “escalate” is supposed to mean. Were we supposed to be engaging in violent riots and molotoving the banks or whatever?

I asked this to a comrade of mine and he said: “You know what we mean when we want the left to do more for Palestine.” By that, he clearly means engage in political violence, bring back the Weathermen. But how would ultra-left adventurism do anything? Elias Rodriguez did exactly this and is now facing life in prison for killing two interns who were replaced the next day. What a fucking waste.

The American left is way too weak, disorganized, and incompetent to do anything meaningful to help the Palestinians resist or stop Israel. It’s gotten to the point where people are putting all their hope and faith in the idea Israel will collapse on its own because they’ve run out of strategies. So what should the left be doing that it’s not doing already? Give clear examples.

>palestinians aren't a race
I thought this was clipped out of context but it's direct from her channel. how did she even get into this frame? overcompensating for saying some dumb racist shit? the palestinian genocide is occurring across racial lines: how does she not know that palestinians are predominantly arab and bedouin? she is precisely the kind of misinformed moron who should be shut down.

>>2787294
the trans-atlantic slave trade is foundational to the american empire, but the crusades to the middle east started in the 11th century, and the west african slave trade occurred in the 15th century colonialism has a longer and broader history than just the USA.

of course there's a resurgence of kamala supporters now that piker is chasing the zionists and abundance weirdos out of the dems. crakkkerpoints came out of the woodwork to say some dumb shit as well.

what are these bids for attention? making pointless drama is self defeating, and they seem to be forgetting harris's unconditional support for the palestinian genocide cost the dems the election and not palestinians. they're at war with reality, not trump.

>>2791896
How were the Crusades a bigger atrocity than Black slavery? The Crusades were also empire vs empire, not empire vs helpless, stateless people.

>>2791896
The crusades were not “anti-Palestinian violence” the same way slavery was anti-Black violence.

>>2791896
Okay, you’re being just as retarded. Minor nobles from France and Germany, as well as rabble made up of common criminals and peasants, being spurred on by the Orthodox and Catholic religious institutions to fight recently converted Turks and Slavs in the 11th century in centuries long war is not the same as a Zionist foothold in Palestine

EUSSR status?



 

The primary contradiction in non-AES Global South countries is not "foreign-bourg vs national-bourg" but rather, it's "industrial capitalist vs financial capitalist".

An imperialist foreign Western capitalist who builds a factory and develops the productive forces by outsourcing and transferring technology and capital is infinitely more progressive than a "patriotic" "sovereign" nationalist financial capitalist or service capitalist.

Countries that realized this simple fact, like South Korea, Mexico, Poland, Indonesia etc are able to develop and massively increase their standard of living.

Countries that misguidedly pursued "sovereignty" instead via protectionism and over regulation, like many post-colonial countries, suffered from stagnation. Those countries were actually scammed by their "patriotic" bourgeoisie to protect their local capital from competition that would have built industry and improved their standard of living.

Therefore, being blindly anti-imperialist by default is not useful. Collaborating with foreign and domestic industrial giants while keeping both domestic and foreign finance at bay should be the primary goal of socialists in these countries.

>it amounts to the same thing, since the financial capitalists are the comprador booj in thrall to the imperial core while the indsustrial capitalists are the national booj who wanna develop the productive forces and exercise sovereignty over the natural resources. It basically is the modern equivalent of the difference between tories and patriots in 1776. Loyalty to the metropole of capital vs a national independence movement.
