>>2850585
You are quite noticeably ignoring the part where the latent reserve army of labor, which is an important element of keeping down wages, continouously shrinks. Which implies that over time, while industrialization does not necessarily happen at any one point, it must eventually happen.

The Algerian strategy was also very specific. It was led by men who had served in the French military and understood exactly how the French Army operated. The wretched of the Earth and The Battle of Algiers have shaped and distorted many people's perception of the Algerian War. In reality, the FLN often focused on forcing the French into costly wild goose chases, drawing them into the desert, retreating across the border into neighboring Libya and making them expend enormous resources. Shooting out a tire was as valuable as killing a soldier because the objective was to wear down the French through constant attrition. The goal was to drain France's resources, damage its economy and make the war so expensive and unpopular that the French public would no longer support continuing it and that happened.

That's actually good to know. I think the same tactic will work against the US in the coming years.

>>2850749
>>2850705
It's also worth remembering that this was the same strategy the PLO adapted early on and it ultimately didn't work in the Palestinian context. Unlike the FLN that could retreat into vast deserts or remote terrain, Palestinian fighters could only fall back to Jordan and Syria. They also faced a much better-equipped Israeli military and Israel was able to carry out artillery strikes and cross-border raids.

From my understanding Mao said China will be an industrialised socialist nation by the year 2000, then Deng postponed it to 2050 which is still repeated to this day.

But what does this concretely mean in qualitative terms, how do the relations to production shift? Will the stock market be abolished, private ownership of capital, the three represents system abolished, a planned economy be build? It can't just be more development of the productive forces or building a welfare state or it doesn't mean anything.

So people who think China is actually socialist, can you give government approved sources that prove any intention to build communism?

‘People shouldn’t expect there will be water in their taps every day’: why is St Lucia running out of water?
The water scarcity crisis plaguing the Caribbean nation had become so severe that last March the island’s hospitality and tourism sector considered bringing in water by barge from its neighbour, Dominica. For experts, this was a sign that, as the climate crisis worsens, extreme weather events could trigger systemic risks on the island.

10 years after the Brexit vote: where next for Britain and Europe?
The aftershocks of this political earthquake are still being felt today. British capitalism bears the scars of losing free access to the market of its biggest trading partner. Government ministers are talking about a ‘reset’ between the UK and Europe. Careerists like Wes Streeting, meanwhile, have gone even further, calling for Britain to rejoin the European Union (EU). On the other side, Reform UK – formerly known as the Brexit Party – is currently riding high in the polls. And its leader, the prominent Leave campaigner Nigel Farage, is eyeing up a residency in Number 10. A decade on from the EU referendum, therefore, it is clear that the subject of Europe still haunts British politics. This raises a number of pertinent questions. How did Brexit come about in the first place? What attitude should communists have towards ‘the European project’? And what is the perspectiv

Elections in Colombia Signal Another Victory for the Right in Latin America
Abelardo de la Espriella appears poised to become Colombia’s next president. At the time of writing, he maintains a narrow lead over Iván Cepeda, a member of outgoing president Gustavo Petro’s Pacto Histórico (Historical Pact) party. De la Espriella, a far-right millionaire, is the latest candidate in a recent wave of Trump allies in Latin America to make significant electoral gains. With nearly all ballots counted in one of the most hotly contested elections in the country’s history, de la Espriella has won 49.6 percent of the vote compared to Cepeda’s 48.6 percent. Just 250,830 votes currently separate the two candidates, according to this preliminary tally, and 1.6 percent of Colombians cast a blank ballot. Both President Donald Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio have already congratulated de la Espriella. However, the final, official outcome may differ. Indeed, in the 2022 election, Pacto Histórico gained half a million votes compared to the preliminary count. In this sense, U.S. imperialism is clearly trying to put its finger on the scale, prematurely calling the election for its ally before the outcome has been finalized. NonethelePost too long.

In today's public discourse, there is no shortage of so-called praise for the "Nordic Model." This argument holds that the "Nordic Model" relies on reform rather than external expansion, achieving a highly developed standard of living and social welfare on a so-called "Third Way," which is genuine "socialism." Especially at western website, such voices are particularly loud. In China, a large number of liberals also tout these Nordic welfare states, calling them a paradise on earth. However, is this really the truth?
In the Nordic region, there is a communist who supports the Third World people's resistance against imperialism, named Torkil Lauesen. This brother, who once screwed bolts in a factory and delivered packages on the streets, rebelled against Nordic capitalists because he opposed the Nordic exploitation of the Third World. As a result, he was sent to prison by the "democratic and free" Nordic Social Democratic government. After regaining his freedom, he wrote a book titled *Riding the Wave: Sweden’s Integration into the Imperialist World System*. Let's see how he exposes the imperialist acts of the Nordic countries.
Swedish capitalists have transferred a massive amount of low- to mid-end labor-intensive industries to the Third World, making a fortune overseas: [The Swedish company Electrolux is one of the world's leading producers of household appliances and tools; by 2010, about 70% of its production was outsourced to low-wage countries. In 2018, 3,103 Swedish multinational companies employed 2.16 million people, of which 1.5 million were abroad and another 660,000 were within Sweden. Swedish transnational capital is highly concentrated. The 30 largest companies employed 1,053,381 people in 2018, with 773,611 abroad and 279,770 in Sweden. The turnover of these companies abroad was 3,713 billion SEK (445.56 billion USD), compared to 2,263 billion SEK (271.56 billion USD) in Sweden.]
Some say that the countries Sweden invests in are primarily Western developed countries like Germany, so Sweden does not exploit the Third World. Regarding this, this brother also provided an explanation: [About half of the investments are inter-imperialist—Swedish investments in North America and the EU, and vice versa—which reflects the degree of global capital integration. Swedish Electrolux products are sold in the EU and the US, while German Siemens Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

That first link was a good read and cements a theory I've had for a while, nice find.

They don't, not directly really. Third worldists just want to drag everyone down to their level. The real problem is that social democracy is used as a cover for never getting rid of capitalism and they will endlessly fear monger about anyone who might want to move beyond it, insisting they actually want to make things worse.

🚨🇨🇺 BREAKING: Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel unveiled a sweeping set of economic reforms Friday, casting them as Cuba’s path through the crisis driven by a “criminal energy blockade” by the United States that has left the island nearly without fuel.

Only 1 oil tanker has reached Cuba in the past 5 months, Díaz-Canel said, a collapse that traces to January, when the U.S. captured Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and cut the flow of Venezuelan oil, then threatened tariffs on any country that supplied Cuba.

Havana now endures blackouts of up to 15 hours a day. Among the most devastating consequences of the U.S. policy is that the Cuban government has been forced to postpone tens of thousands of surgeries for its citizens.

The Cuban President today named national defense as the first priority, citing preparations under Cuba’s “Whole People’s War” doctrine. The full 2026 reform program includes:

🔹Enterprise & Markets
🔸 Overhaul the economic management system, easing the conflict between central planning and incentives for production

This isn’t a good thing as most nations Dont comeback from this though Cuba was forced into this position by the us and I really hope this is only temporary

It seems it is indeed truly over. In complete honest, its surprising how long it lasted, given extreme external pressure, limited possibilities for autarky & deep revisionist influences.

I generally agree with you here MaoAnon, though with some minors caveats:

It's unlikely given Cuba's population & resource endowment that it could have easily achieved even an inefficient version of self-sufficiency.

That said, revisionism as far economic structure & functioning is concerned made everything worse & more unsustainable.

Its not even specialization or foreign investment that are the main capitulation or what Che himself argued so heavily against (both of those things can be mitigated with proper state control; The latter the USSR utilized during the 30s to acquire foreign tech & skills, generally taking over the ventures after a couple years).

Instead, it's enterprise/factory independence in terms of investment financing, supply chain decisions & product range.

The spectre of the Kosygin reform strikes again in all its decadence & degeneracy.

Prior to 2016 (when Trump was first elected POTUS), conspiracy culture was left-coded as shown by how 9/11 truthers, anti-vaxxers, General Motors streetcar conspiracy, etc… were mostly leftists or leaned to the left in the political spectrum, with GWOT-era Michael Moore’s documentaries being the prime example. Funnily enough, the mainstream American right-wing during the Bush presidency was far more elitist and anti-conspiratorial than their leftist contemporaries, and that was when the American left was more populist since it was the underdog during the GWOT era (especially the faction opposed to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan).

It’s only after 2016 that you see the big shift as the post-2008 American left became less populist and more elite, “woke”, and prestigious as opposed to the GOP which started to become more prole-coded, lower-class and populist. The cracks began with the Tea Party, and MAGA just accelerated the shift, to the point that MAGA turned from a faction within the GOP to being the top faction, so much so that any republican candidate would be committing social suicide by not being 100% devoted to MAGA.

Now that the American right (particularly MAGA) has become the incumbent, you’re starting to see some kind of return to the old status quo as right-wing influencers like Nick Fuentes and The Blaze are shitting on conspiracists, beginning with Epstein. Part of it is because Nick hates cringe and poor people, and part of it is that, now that the movement he supports is in power, all the talks about “deep state” this and that is counterproductive now that Trump (the guy Qanon prophesied to stop Epstein) is in charge. In the meantime, the American left has successfully seized on Trump acting guilty by ridiculously walking back on the Epstein files, to the point of dismissing it as a ‘Democratic hoax’. Likewise you have various MAGA influencers like Azealia Banks defending Epstein or denying it, even if it means going against their priors. This is concurrent with how the Epstein saga has transformed into a form of lumpenised class consciousness across the American left, to the point that this sort of populist Epstein-related conspiratorialism (such as allegations of cannibalism and satanism) has reached all of Latin America, the entire western left, as well as the Iranian government (if its LEGO AI videos are proof of anything).
