It's higher but not that much. It's a botched half hassed genocide regardless and the israeli military is not as powerful or bullet proof as people believes and Gazans arent passive and demoralized like eastern jews or ottoman armenians were despite the constant mayhem and slow attrition.
There is a 5D chess theory TRS chuds have that Israel make gaza unhabitable while not killing them ouright because they want to send millions of refugees in europe but i don't buy it, Israel is just not good at doing quick ethnic cleasing and it's army/generals arent what they used to be.

Israel is a bizarre case because its RW support the mixing of these different groups, while its liberal blocs (who are still Zionist) often favor keeping these groups separate and preserving each group’s distinct history.

I don't think they'll take them because while Arab elites are gigacucks their population are 99% fanatically anti-israel and would take welcoming them as betraying arabs and sucking jewish cock. It's the reason Gaza still exist today btw.

They wish to bring about the Jewish messiah. The religious nuts over there have similar goals to the evangelicals trying to cause armageddon in the us.

>Lenin was a Kautskyite
until 1914 when Kautsky became a renegade, revolutionary defencist, and nationalist. Lenin ironically gets accused by clowns on here of being a Russian Robespierre, nothing more than a national bourgeois revolutionary for semi-feudal Russia, who brought about Capitalism in a Red Dress. But no bourgeois revolutionary ever did revolutionary defeatism.

there is a weak but burgeoning workers movement right now, like I said our era most resembles that of marx's in that way

>>2782031
The obvious difference between then and now is that 150 years of industrial and national development have taken place. We have a mature, global capitalist economy that is beset by crisis due to declining profit rates and overproduction.

Mass socialist parties don't exist because workers have been anaesthetized by mass media and civil society, while their power is denied by deindustrialization and capital flight. This means that the opportunist compromises of social democracy and Marxism-Leninism are not possible, but it also means mobilizing people for actual communism is very difficult.

Every western socialist party that currently exists is a dead end. If any were going to achieve anything, they'd have achieved it by now. Instead, most are dead, irrelevant, or bolstered only by the even-faster suicides of socdem parties. (and thus become Socdems themselves)
The problem with the left, broadly speaking, is that it is entirely uninterested in questions of organizational structure and management, or that insofar as it engages with them it does so as a cargo-cult exercise in building the CPSU or actually-existing-communism in one central committee, rather than asking "what are we practically trying to achieve and what organizational structure will enable us to do that" like any other serious organization on the planet would do.

The average leftist org could not be trusted to run a lemonade stand, but it wants you to believe that one day it'll be capable of taking and holding power. Moreover, every single one would rather sit around and debate whether there will be ice cream under communism or put out "demands" on behalf of a working class who don't know it exists and which it has no means to enforce consequences for not following instead of - say - running a lemonade stand to train comrades in not being totally useless LARPers.

Just say "bourgeoisie" already

On topic this is how the government can become reactionary; claim to "protect children" while enforcing practices that restrict the freedom of speech of the masses. Not to mention that age verification providers (Roblox, LinkedIn, etc.) send your face to the feds. This will eventually begin a reactionary purity spiral where applications of any kind will be forbidden in order to "protect the people".

And yet i have a better understanding of "le'based scisnce" than you ever will.

For example champ, you are aware scientists believe there will be a second big-bang correct? Relatively soon in fact in math terms. On the precipice of a sextillion years if you assume 10^68 million from what we know so far.

Now i know you're an incel so sex anything is scary. Let alone sextillion…but basically it's the number after quintillion which is the number after a trillion

The thing is it could happen even sooner as "time" is finite resource. Oh you think I'm reactionary now??? You'll be espousing cosmic Malthusianism when you realize time is a relative byproduct of momentum and can run dry. It is running dry. You are literally running out of time.

Good argument for accelerationism too as you see, my thesis is we can directly expend time via leptons. A theoretical particle very sensitive to electromagnetics and volatile.

In 47-52 Vote, Senate GOP Blocks Another Iran War Powers Resolution
Although the war launched by the US and Israel in late February has killed more than 1,700 civilians and sparked a global fuel crisis that has sent prices skyrocketing, that was not enough for 52 Republican senators—every one except libertarian Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.)—who voted to back the president even as the war further erodes his approval rating.

‘They want to keep denying us our rights’: workers in Vermont’s $5.4bn dairy industry fight for basic labor protections
the state has refused to codify rights for any of the state’s 8,300 farm workers, including roughly 1,000 undocumented workers, according to numbers provided by Migrant Justice, a Vermont-based human rights organization founded and led by farm workers. These workers remain exempt from minimum wage rules, overtime protections and the right to unionize. And increasing immigration enforcement has made them more legally vulnerable and kept them cloistered on farms.

Your Party: what kind of socialist party does the British working class actually need in 2026?
THERE is a theoretical question at the heart of Your Party’s April 2026 decision on membership eligibility, and it deserves a serious answer — not a bureaucratic one. The question is this: what kind of socialist party does the British working class actually need in 2026? A disciplined vanguard, or a broad democratic mass party? An organisation built around the co-ordination of professional revolutionaries, or one built around the self-activity and democratic participation of the widest possible cross-section of the working class itself? The Your Party central executive committee (CEC) has, with its membership eligibility framework, given a clear and principled answer. Understanding why that answer is correct requires going back to one of the deepest debates in the socialist tradition. Rosa Luxemburg spent much of her political life engaged in precisely this debate with Lenin. Her position was not, as is sometimes caricatured, a rejection of organisation. She was a lifelong organiser who died at the hands of counter-revolution. Her argument was something more precise: that the revolutionary transformation of society could not be accomplished by substituting a disciplined party for the self-activity of the working class.

>I've seen some clips of their newer stuff like their Korean war movie and it looks like amateur hour.
True, I heard from a sinologist I like to watch sometimes that his contacts in China talk to him about Chinese TV getting more and more boring, and how there is some cultural national push going on which saps the fun out of TV shows. But most of donghuas are ONAs so they are a bit more distanced from this trend.

Dude, these are all Hong-Kong made movies. Even before the civil war most film production came out of the more stable southern parts of China and then a lot of the people involved moved to Hong Kong and Taiwan afterward. Mainland China ended up with a completely different path when it came to filmmaking.
On one hand, there were films made for the masses, a lot like that Korean War movie you mentioned. corny, cheaply made and pretty simplistic war movies or comedies meant to entertain peasants. On the other hand there were more artsy films, directed by people who had studied at top film film making schools abroad. These had big state budgets and won soviet film awards. but most people never actually saw them and they were still heavily propagandistic.
The real high point of Chinese cinema is the Fifth Generation. That era had fewer restrictions on subject matter and more cross-regional exchange within the Sinosphere, which led to some genuinely great films. They were critically strong and did okay commercially but not massively so.
In the end though, chinese audiences largely wanted more lowbrow entertainment and that’s what they got. Ironically capitalism ended up producing the same kind of state-backed, cheaply made mass-market content of the mao era, simplistic war movies and crass comedies.

No shit
