/leftypol/ - Leftist Politically Incorrect

What does /leftypol/ think of the Badempanada line of argument that says Nazi war aims and ideology(lebesraum) were directly based off of US settler colonialism and manifest destiny?

>The Nazi's primary aim in World War 2, which Hitler had imagined since the 1920s, was the conquest of Eastern European land for German settlement. This was the driver behind everything, including the Holocaust. The Holocaust was engendered by their belief that the imagined 'Jewish Cabal' which keeps Germany down would never allow them to undertake such an endeavour. To 'get around' that problem, they first planned the mass deportation of Jews in Germany and the mass murder/enslavement of Jews in the East, and this later evolved into the outright industrial murder of all Jews - which specifically needed said colonial conquest to be carried out, as all Nazi death camps were in their occupied Eastern colonies.

>Hitler saw the US as the greatest extant example of what he wanted to achieve: a country conquered by people he believed to be ethnically German that had conquered vast amounts of 'open space' for its colonists. For this reason, as he wrote in Mein Kampf, he believed that the USA, with its mastery of 'space' was destined to become the top world power in due time. He planned for Germany to become a world power too, which would inevitably bring it into conflict with the US and the only way he believed that Germany could possibly confront a country like the US was to mimic its mastery of 'space' by conquering Eastern Europe for German settlement. He additionally believed that settler colonialism in other continents ie: Africa would be inadequate; the US' strength came from the fact its 'living space' was contiguous, not simply that it had a lot of it in many different places. Thus Eastern expansion to make Germany itself bigger was the only option.

>This is Hitler's motivation behind the focus on the East rather than Africa or somewhere else, he was not simply mimicking ideologies from the 1600s, he was looking at the world during his own time and came to see the contiguous USA as the model to follow.

>Here's a couple of choice Hitler quotes that make this very clear:

the questions are rhetorical, I only desire that everyone ask themselves the same things, and when they answer, they answer for themselves, and not for me

Even the best of all possible futures, the future where we win, is a tragic future, because of the billions who needlessly died to get us there. The book of Exodus (fictional or not, doesn't matter right now) speaks of Moses dying after 40 years in the desert on the way to the promised land. He dies within sight of the promised land but never actually touches it. If Communism is the secular promised land, then that means the entirety of the human species leading up to the realization of Communism died in the desert on the way there. If all we have is our one life, and when we die we are gone for good, then what good is the lifelong class struggle? What is the difference between our surplus labor value being stolen by the bourgeoisie today and our Communism being stolen by unborn generations who will never have to live through the class struggle like we do? I think this question is why so many people turn away from the promise of building Communism for the unborn generations who will inherit the Earth from us, and instead turn to opportunism and selfish individualism. After all, we know nothing about the unborn generations. All we know is ourselves and the people we hold dear in this life. The unborn generations who will inherit the results of our struggles are as alien to us as we are to the ancients. Moses (fictional or not) did not die in the desert hoping that I could post on the internet. Yet each of us like to say that we would happily die if it meant that people 1000 years from now could live in peace and harmony without having their labor exploited. Is this irrational zealotry, or an admirable trait?

sick and tired of capitalists whitewashing everything they do with charity and philanthropy. It's pathetic that libcucks actually fucking believe that the so-called "nonprofits", charity foundations, trojan horse "aid" to 3rd world countries, high-interest IMF loans, missionary work, and so on are real solutions to a problem that is rooted in class struggle.

1) Wich do you think should have won (if it's Stalin then specify why he need it to win )
2) Wich one of them are revisionists
3) How would USSR operate between 1924-195x

Did you ever notice that whenever it's Gulag, there's no corpses, no photos or anything of deaths, at most there's barbed wire (very rarely) and stuff, and all the deaths are recorded, while Nazis had loads upon loads of photos of corpses, but no records of deaths because? Funny how (supposedly) communists destroyed corpses to the very atoms, but kept (totally not fake) records, while Nazis struggled with getting rid of corpses and instead opted out to destroy papers. Say, compare wiki articles https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mittelbau-Dora_concentration_camp to https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%94%D0%BC%D0%B8%D1%82%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%BB%D0%B0%D0%B3

In Nazi case, there's immediately photos of corpses. In Soviet case, it's photos of "people responsible" and archival documents. Funny how that works, eh? :^)

Revolution means carrying out class struggle, but it does not merely mean that. The development of the productive forces is also a kind of revolution — a very important one. It is the most fundamental revolution from the viewpoint of historical development.

Over the past 30 years since the founding of the People’s Republic, we have laid the basic socialist foundation in agriculture, industry, and other areas. But we have a major problem, that is, we have wasted some time and our productive forces have developed too slowly. All revolution is designed to remove obstacles to the development of the productive forces.

Since socialism is superior to capitalism, socialist countries should be able to develop their economies more rapidly than capitalist countries, improving their people’s living standards gradually and becoming more powerful. We have suffered some setbacks in this respect.

The objective of achieving the four modernizations was actually put forth by Chairman Mao and announced by Premier Zhou in his report on government work. But how did the Gang of Four respond? They said that it was better to be poor under socialism than to be rich under capitalism. It seemed to them that socialism meant pauperism. Marxists have always held that socialism is superior to capitalism and that socialist countries should be able to develop their productive forces more rapidly than capitalist countries.Lin Biao and the Gang of Four totally deviated from the cardinal principles of Marxism-Leninism and Mao Zedong Thought.

Being a large country, China should play a more important role in the world, but owing to its limited strength, it cannot play a greater role. In the final analysis, what we should do is try to promote China’s development. It is not enough just to say we are poor, and actually, we are very poor. Such a status quo is far from being commensurate with the standing of a great nation such as ours. Therefore, starting last year, we shifted our focus onto economic development. We should unequivocally continue to do so. Developing the economy is a new endeavour for us, for which we must pay a price. We are exploring ways to develop the economy more rapidly and we have confidence that we can do so. We must emancipate our minds and we should do so even in answering the question as to what socialism is. If the economy remains stagnant and the people’s living standards remain at a very low level for a long period of time, we cannotPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

What are some good skills for a suburbanite PMC can develop if I'm not doing actual labor day to day.
I was thinking something along the lines of woodworking, gardening etc

Figured the climate was serious enough to warrant it's own thread.

>BREAKING: new UN report warns of total societal collapse due to ecosystem destruction without radical changes

>1. Not a single media outlet picked up on the increasing probability of civilisational collapse.
>UN appears to have diluted its own findings.
>Recognising collapse risk isn't about doom-mongering, but understanding risks.
>2022-2029 is key time for action.

>2. This is the first UN flagship report to find existing global policies are accelerating us towards a collapse of human civilisation.
>- report doesn't say outcome is inevitable or specify how close to possibility we are
>- we can still act

Why is the alt-right/far-right so obsessed with Jews? It completely blinds them from any kind of other elite or systemic thought and radicalism. If Jews and Judaism never even existed, how would the modern right even make sense of power politics? Like I get that there are a reasonable number of Jews in American/Capitalist power structure, but to pretend they're the absolute source and core of everything wrong is obviously a simpleton's oversimplification to understand a complex world. Jews live completely rent free in some of these people's heads. I'm curious what other people think about this phenomenon within the right and the "Jewish question" in general.

Decided to make a thread for a place to post shit that the twitter page for /leftypol/ can pull from. They haven't posted anything since June, quite a while. Memes, videos (Has to be under 2 minutes and 20 seconds), informative shit, high effort green posts, funny greenposts. Overall anything that can be used to promote this place that hasn't already been posted. Am debating about making it a requirement for a watermark back to this place, but ehhh, seems kinda unfun. What do you guys think? Also if you have access to the twitter page, use a pfp that isn't saturated as fuck, the current ones blinds my eyes. Thanks.
