Can we talk about the new revelations about Noam Chomsky and Jeffrey Epstein?

>The prominent linguist and philosopher Noam Chomsky called it a “most valuable experience” to have maintained “regular contact” with Jeffrey Epstein, who by then had long been convicted of soliciting prostitution from a minor, according to emails released earlier in November by US lawmakers.


>Such comments from Chomsky, or attributed to him, suggest his association with Epstein – who officials concluded killed himself in jail in 2019 while awaiting trial on federal sex-trafficking charges – went deeper than the occasional political and academic discussions the former had previously claimed to have with the latter.


>Chomsky, 96, had also reportedly acknowledged receiving about $270,000 from an account linked to Epstein while sorting the disbursement of common funds relating to the first of his two marriages, though the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) professor has insisted not “one penny” came directly from the infamous financier.


>The emails disclosed on 12 November by the Republican members of the US House oversight committee generally detailed the correspondence Epstein had with political, academic and business luminaries, including the Bill Clinton White House’s treasury secretary Larry Summers and Steve Bannon, the longtime ally of Donald Trump. Further, they reveal Epstein and Chomsky were close enough to discuss musical interests and even potential vacations.


>Perhaps the most telling of the Chomsky-related documents in question was a letter of support for Epstein attributed to Chomsky with the salutation “to whom it may concern”. It is not dated, but it contains a typed signature with Chomsky’s name and citing his position as a University of Arizona laureate professor, a role he began in 2017, as first reported by the Massachusetts news outlet WBUR.

>>2687430
You joke but this is kind of true. Bernie was the diet version of socialist (social democracy) while Chomsky was the diet version of anarchist (khmer rouge thought) and they were significant as representatives of both of those things to the broader population. You don't need to be super precise all the time just to criticize the sort of movements or ideological strains they spawned. I wouldn't necessarily consider a dsa berniebro to be an avthentic red marxist patriot but I wouldn't really care if someone like that calls himself a socialist or gets called a socialist by someone criticizing that movement.

has pseudo-scientific bourgeois empiricism produced anything so reductive, so psychopathic, so unhinged, so race-to-the-bottom as "Game Theory," which was literally invented to justify pre-emptive nuclear strikes against the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics?

this anon isn't familiar with the type of anon who uses "empiricist" as a synonym for "bourgeois, bad" while using it to be the opposite of "dialectical" which they use as a synonym for "proletarian, good"

>rationalist strain of theorizing
Yeah OP just has a meme understanding of philosophy so he doesn't know that empiricist and rationalist refers to two camps in philosophy, with the rationalists often being religious. He probably means something like "smug liberal racist atheist on reddit".
>idealizations that may be so reductive that it doesn't actually capture the complexity
You can say that about the intro texts for just about anything. Game theorists also deal with people having cognitive limits, but that comes later.

Israeli prisons 'begin preparations to apply death penalty' for Palestinians
>Channel 13 reports prison service building 'Green Mile' facility where executions set to take place

>Training and procedural preparations have also started, while a delegation from the prison service is expected to visit an East Asian country to study the legal and regulatory framework for implementing capital punishment, the report added.


>The move follows the Knesset’s approval of the death penalty bill in its first reading last year, with 39 MPs in favour and 16 against.


>The bill must pass two further readings before becoming law.


>The report added that executions will be carried out by hanging, with three guards pressing the trigger simultaneously.


>Specialist teams, composed entirely of volunteers, will be assigned to the task.


>An Israeli source told the channel that death sentences will be carried out within 90 days of the final verdict.

The JCP has some core support groups like the teachers unions that religiously subscribe to the newspaper but that's the problem. It's a boomer party. Ironically despite being pretty progressive on many issues, the JCP is considered to be conservative party because it is perceived to represent an 'old politics' also you have to understand that is basically constantly being harassed by Japanese glowies and surveillanced, to the point where whenever they cooperate with moderate parties they freak the fuck out when they are also suddenly finding cameras.

Japan has like most Western countries a very monopolized mediasphere and the 'Red Flag' is considered to be newspaper that says it how it is. For this reason it is very popular among Western embassy staff (and glowies) to keep up with Japanese domestic politics.

While it's true that the average Nipponese normie is cattle who keeps voooting for the LDP every time, that still doesn't excuse the leftoids there from the fact that they're still hippies stuck in the 1960s. Completely out-of-touch.

>>2687241
To be fair Japan(in coordination with the CIA) exterminated their Communists and the average Japanese person thinks Communists want to eat their baby even if they agree with collectivization.
The Japanese "left" is just liberal controlled opposition that aren't a threat to US interests.



 

🇨🇳🇺🇲🇪🇺 A thread for all-things multipolaroidistical 🇷🇺🇮🇳🇮🇷
Pioneer's edition
In spite of the seething of many supposedly 'leftist comrades', America's unipolar dominance is weakening every day and we move ever closer into a multipolar world. It is clear to any good faith communist that a multipolar world just means that: transitioning from American unipolarity to multipolarity, and that does not automatically mean the expansion and consolidation of socialism. The latter gains more opportunities in this new state of affairs, but nothing is given on a silver platter - communists still have to seize the day. If we make the mistake of thinking multipolarity is socialism, we might as well end up with a multiple poles of fascism and reaction. This is understood by communists, real ones, not agents of NATO clad in 'red aesthetics'. The latter strawman the 'multipolarity=communism' nonsense precisely to then dismantle it and thus ridicule and 'defeat' multipolaristas, doing the work of the NATO Moloch.
'''Multipolaristas, let this thread be a place where all developments concerning the advent of multipolarity is posted and compiled.

Sure thing Xi. I guess plagiarizing Yugoslavia is a creation of the party.
Can someone explain the material causes of utter degeneration of such a statement? Is the economy really that reliant on stupid bourgeoisie capital owners?
Oh and Yeah, I finally understood trotsky. You can't build communism without having full spectrum dominance over your enemies. Because your people will be dreaming of running away. You need to block their imagination and redirect it towards communism.

>>2634357
I respect this because he is honest. I'm posting this from Beijing, and the first thing that struck me about China (beside the smog) was not how it's like a literally 1984 no freedom allowed dictatorship like redditors say, nor how it's an absolute paradise for the proletariat like leftypol says, but how…normal it is, as a Westoid. You go to the mall and you have every chain you would except in a Western country: McDonalds, KFC, Uniqlo, Zara, Samsung phones… I was excepting a cultural shock, but beyond paying with your phone, people spitting on the floor and being more extroverted, security checks, unique ancient architecture and occasional huge crowds, it's business as usual. I had more of a cultural shock in Turkey to be frank.
China manages their economy better than most Western countries, people are friendly, I feel good here and if I could stay for 3 months I would, but I don't see how it is such a step forward for the communist movement to "support" them on the English-speaking internet.
I just want good diplomatic relationships between my country and China but that's it, the Chinese proletariat will decide for itself if they still want soft social democracy like they have right now in the future, or something else.
Stop soyfacing over China on the internet, go there and see for yourself, learn more about internal debates within the country, and then maybe reconsider your positions. I can see how attractive it can be for an American who has to pay $40,000 for an ambulance, but I don't see anything revolutionary here. I don't understand why wanting socio-economic reforms in a Western country is supposed to be bad, but when it happens within the market economy of China, suddenly it's epic. If this is modern communism then Bernstein was completely right and you should immediately stop simping for Stalin or Bordiga or whatever.

The Korean Central News Agency reported that an ideal large-scale agricultural city of the new era has been built under the leadership of the great Party Central Committee.
The Korean Central News Agency reported on the 5th that an ideal large-scale farm city of the new era has been successfully built under the leadership of the great Party Central Committee.

According to reports, thanks to the outstanding leadership of the Workers' Party of Korea, an unprecedented large greenhouse army has risen magnificently in the northwestern part of the country.

Dear Comrade Kim Jong Un made a bold decision to transform the island area of ​​North Pyongan Province, which had been ravaged by the tyranny of nature, into an ideal large-scale farm city of the new era, and organized and led a large-scale construction operation from the front line.

The civilian construction workers, who upheld the will of the Party Central Committee and rose up in unison, completed the construction of a large-scale greenhouse farm in just one year with their strong spirit and tenacious execution.

With the construction of a sea of ​​modern greenhouses of various types and shapes, production and auxiliary buildings, and various cultural life bases, the Wihwado area has been transformed into a golden island.

In particular, the Sinuiju Vegetable Science Research Center, which combines cultural houses with the unique charm of the region and dozens of modern test cultivation greenhouses, is emerging as a scientific research and dissemination base for the scientific, intensive, and industrialization of greenhouse vegetable production, and is showing off the country's greenhouse vegetable production and development prospects of large-scale farm cities.

The creation of heaven and earth on the Yalu River cannot be thought of without the logo of the great father's devotion to the people.

Speech on the Peasant Women Day, 15th October, 2025.
Comrades, sisters, and fellow workers!
Today, the representatives of global capital in their glass palace tells us to celebrate. The United Nations, that grand committee for managing the common affairs of the global bourgeoisie, has declared this day the “International Day of the Rural Woman.”

They will speak of our “resilience.”
They will praise our “vital role in the economy.”
They will hand microphones to a few so-called “successful” women and
They will distribute branded T-shirts, buckets, and packets of hybrid seeds.
But we say: No!

We will not be pacified with platitudes and trinkets.
We reject this celebration that masks our exploitation.
We are not here to be celebrated—we are here to be liberated.

Not really and only corrupt officials and foreign businessmen are seeing a rise. The working class of Guyana are not seeing the benefits that the multinational companies and this is a constant complaint as new gated and secured communities are formed away from the masses. This is not regular for Guyanese life. They are taking advantage of the racial divide of Guyana between the predominantly Indian PPP and the predominantly Black PNC. A beef that goes back in the 1950s from a split between Cheddi Jagan and Forbes Burnham. This was promoted by Churchill,MI6 and the CIA because Guyana was one of the colonies rapidly going socialist. Not going to go on a lecture about How Jagan and Burnham split or their attempts at socialism like Burnham being inspired by Juche. What is important that Guyana will have a socialist figure who will unify Guyana's founding fathers as Jagan and Burnham to heal the divide. This period the next five to ten years will build a lot of infrastructure before this inevitably happens and the incompetence of the government to handle the staggering wealth inequality

How Trump Took Up the ‘Christian Genocide’ Cause in Nigeria

Top advisers from the Trump Administration sat at the head of a giant wooden table in an office near the White House in late October listening as religious activists described attacks on Christian churches and pastors in Nigeria. The activists wanted President Trump to do something about it.

Three days later, the president threatened to enter Nigeria “guns-a-blazing” to avenge what he has called a “Christian genocide.” Then, on Christmas Day, Mr. Trump launched Tomahawk missiles at “terrorist scum” he said were responsible for killing Nigerian Christians.

Now, the activists have seized on his support to orchestrate a rapid shift in American foreign policy toward Nigeria, with major consequences for the West African nation, including the threat of more bombings. “Our challenge,” said Nina Shea, an activist and the former commissioner for the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom, “was to break through the narrative that this was not religious based.”

Mr. Trump told The New York Times recently that he would approve more strikes if Christians continued to be killed, and last month, senior U.S. leaders were in Nigeria’s capital to announce a new, closer military partnership between the two nations.

>A Shocking Massacre


For years, the Christian activists had tried to get the Biden administration to re-designate Nigeria a Country of Particular Concern, a category reserved for nations where religious freedom is threatened, making them vulnerable to sanctions.

Mr. Trump had put Nigeria on the list during his first term, but the Biden administration lifted the designation in 2021. The State Department’s report on religious freedom in Nigeria that year said there were mass killings of both Christians and Muslims, but it did not single out Christians as a singular target.
