Colombia’s election authority investigating leftist frontrunner
The CNE reportedly agreed to investigate allegations that Cepeda violated regulations regarding campaign contributions ahead of the primary of his political party, Historic Pact, in October last year. The allegations were made by Senator Jote Pe Hernandez of the Green Alliance party and Juan Martin Bravo, a conservative politician from Cali, and four political activists. The opposition politicians and the activists claimed received two donations of a PR company, Samat Publicidad SAS, that together amounted to more than 10% of the total private campaign donations.

Cuba’s electric and petroleum workers celebrate their colleagues during massive rally
Cuba’s power crisis deepened after the U.S. attacked Venezuela in early January, halting critical oil shipments from the South American country. Later that month, U.S. President Donald Trump threatened tariffs on any country that sells or provides oil to Cuba. As a result, the island spent more than three months without a single oil shipment until a Russian tanker laden with 730,000 barrels docked in Cuba in late March.

May Day: Jews and Arabs march together in Tel Aviv and Nazareth, send message against war and Netanyahu
In Nazareth, thousands of Jews and Arabs marched from Tawfiq Zayad Street to Mary’s Well Square in the city center, where a rally featuring political speeches was held. Many young people stood out among the marchers, shouting slogans against capitalist exploitation, fascism, war, and the occupation, while waving red flags and banners in Arabic and Hebrew. Additionally, three marching bands from the Young Communist League of Israel (YCLI) participated in the procession.

‘Go inside, he will kill you’: Israeli militants step up West Bank school attacks
Education is under attack across occupied Palestine. The situation is most severe in Gaza, where more than 600,000 school-age children are approaching the end of a third year without formal in-person education. Israeli attacks there have killed at least 792 teachers and 18,639 students, according to the UN, and damaged or destroyed nine out of 10 school buildings.

Confusion emerges over new South Dakota voter ID requirements
Amy Scott-Stoltz, president of the League of Women Voters of South Dakota, a nonpartisan advocacy group, said that county auditors in charge of voter registration are having difficulty ensuring a uniform system across the state. “They’re trying to follow the secretary of state’s guidelines, but the vagueness has led to certain issues,” Scott-Stoltz told News Watch. “Do they need to present this stuff in person? Can they accept it by mail? Different auditors interpret that differently.”

140 years since the Haymarket affair in Chicago: The struggle for the eight-hour day
This year marks 140 years since the Haymarket Affair, a pivotal episode in the struggle for the eight-hour working day and the development of the modern labor movement. In the late 19th century, industrial workers in the United States typically worked 12 to 14 hours a day under demanding and often dangerous conditions. The demand for an eight-hour day gradually became a central objective of organized labor. In the weeks leading up to the nationwide strike of May 1, 1886, major newspapers warned that such a reform would bring wage cuts, poverty and social disorder, frequently describing the movement as “un-American” and driven by foreign agitators. Despite this pressure, participation in the strike was substantial. On May 1, around 340,000 workers took part in strikes and demonstrations across the country. Chicago was at the center of events, with more than 80,000 workers marching in what was one of the largest labor mobilizations of the time.

Eurocentrism is the dominant ideology of capitalist society, which also exists within the "left-wing" movement. It has certain specific characteristics:

  1. Left Eurocentrism builds upon the bourgeois unilinear theory of "social progress," with Europe serving as the highest peak and the universal reference point of world history.
  2. Left Eurocentrism uses a false version of historical materialism to present early capitalism as a progressive social order on a global scale, while in reality, it was only progressive in relation to the feudal system in the major European states.
  3. Left Eurocentrism underestimates the role of colonialism, the slave trade, etc., as the foundation for the historical origins and ongoing accumulation of the capitalist mode of production.
  4. Left Eurocentrism schematizes world history based on the European experience and forces everything into this mold—for example, the expectation that all societies must go through a succession of the same modes of production (slave-owning, feudal) as Europe, or else they are considered "backward."
  5. Left Eurocentrism assumes that advanced productive forces necessarily lead to advanced struggles; it underestimates the peasantry; it conceives of revolution primarily as the dividing of the national pie between the proletariat and the bourgeois class in the major capitalist countries.
  6. In its approach to international relations, Left Eurocentrism elevates inter-imperialist contradictions above the fundamental contradiction between oppressor and oppressed nations, and it considers relations between great powers to be the main events in world politics.
  7. Left Eurocentrism fails to see the continuous nature of super-exploitation and the unequal international division of labor as the basis of imperialism, and it attempts to explain dynamics without giving any place to the relations between imperialist and dependent countries.
  8. Left Eurocentrism does not recognize the extent to which the main contradictions of the capitalist mode of production are embodied in the contradictions between oppressor and oppressed nations, and therefore considers nationalism in colonial countries to be backward and a hindrance.
  9. Left Eurocentrism generally considers national liberation movements to be subordinate to the supposed interests of the proletarian movement in the "advanced" countries, and d

My family didn't starve in the 80s only due to kolkhoz markets. It was simply impossible to buy something in state groceries. The peasantry, the petit bourgeoisie (aka big proletarians) saved tens of millions of lives of the soviet people while the party bureaucracy tried to murder them. So why should I hate the first ones and like the second ones and their descendants (Cucktin and his party)?

I already read skimmed the whole thing. This guy proposes that everything should be organized through a network of people classified by his personality scheme: male or female, young or old, in combination with 1 of 4 psycho types = 16 personalities in total. So that people who would be enemies interact through intermediaries they find tolerable.

Right at the beginning he shows the diagram "Pallas key" and speaks of you having 4 friends, represented as the ends of a cross; and 4 common friends represented by the diagonal. In case you wonder where you are on that diagram, you count actually as one of your own friends and also one your common friends. Do a ctrl-f for Me and my six friends to see this more clearly. The M and F mean male or female, S and L stand for young and old because why not, and the number is the Jung-ish psycho stuff.

<Each village has 144 people (Dunbar's Number) = 9 x 16 people. Each village is at a distance from its neighboring villages (otherwise it would be a part of a city). Each village has self-sufficiency and self-defense, a mix of eco-village and Shaolin monastery, permaculture and martial arts, farmers and soldiers (symbiosis).

I literally do this all the time, it's not that hard. And when I do it I get called a Marxist dogmatist by people like you because people like you accuse anyone who says the working class is being exploited of being a Marxist dogmatist, whether they actually are or not.

The goal of Mahayana Buddhism is to become a Bodhisattva, an enlightened being who takes a vow to not enter Nirvana until they've achieved the liberation of a certain class, sometimes all classes, of sentient things.

There are many Mahayanists who are Marxists, Tenzin Gyatso included (although he's a filthy leftcom). There are also many Marxists who are Mahayanists. Engaged Buddhism is a thing, as well as humanistic and secular Buddhism.

Ceterum te certiorem facere debeo: qui procedet, in Terra Pura renascetur! Qui recedet, in inferno ardebit! Gloria Buddhae Amitābhae!

Furthermore, I must inform you, he who advances will be reborn in the Pure Land! He who retreats will burn in hell! Glory to the Amitabha Buddha!
