I keep seeing "communists" talk in favour of intersectionality when it is just pure liberalism. Intersectionality is not compatible with Marxism, because for Marxists class is the primary contradiction (anti-imperialism is also class struggle). Radical feminism and queer liberation are both liberal rubbish as well (speaking as a trans woman). Proletarian feminism and the erosion of sex through socialist technology are the real ways to solve these problems, not bourgeois radicalism.

bro I need to hear your opinion on this: is force the cause of motion, or is it an epistemological abstraction of the nature of the relationship between mass and acceleration?

>>2925999
intersectionality is a trvth nvke if you just look at it as a list of things porky uses to divide the proletariat, and a list of things that proles should not discriminate against each other for. it only becomes libmaxxing if you try to use it as some kind of basis for dethroning class as the primary contradiction of class society

>the problem isn't that class exists, the problem is that we believe that it exists
isn't this just literally idealism in the sense that it suggests that material conditions arise from human thought, rather than the other way around. we see in the universe that the mind lags behind the material conditions, both in terms of chronological emergence, and in terms of apprehension. the universe was around for a long time evolving silently before life showed up, contrary to creationist myth. once life arrived it was a long time before that life was capable of "thought" and wasn't something like a cluster of cells in the ocean. once "thought" emerged it took a long time before language, tool making, and symbols came about. So the material conditions for life, thought, language, and tool making are a prerequisite for those things emerging. only once agricultural society emerged and surplus accumulation became possible did class society emerge, because class society is a product of humans finally being able to produce more than they need to survive, but that surplus accumulating only among certain groups due an asymmetry of ownership. Ownership is material insofar as class society divided land and natural resources according to proximity and the ability to defend hoarded resources. Property law emerges from the intellectual effort to sustain this state of affairs by superstructural means like secular and religious authority. We see then that class society is not a result of believing in it. class society emerges from material conditions of surplus accumulation in settled agricultural communities. class society evolves alongside modes of production, means of production, and productive forces (technology). the conditions for abolishing class society come about with certain historical developments that are (relatively) recent.

>>2927993
class as a concept only emerged to describe the material conditions of exploitation and surplus accumulation, long after those phenomena had already emerged in practice. The "fiction" as you call it is actually a theoretical descriptor that emerged after class had already become a fact in practice.

US military aid to Israel continues three years into Gaza genocide
To date, at least 74,243 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza since the Hamas-led attacks on southern Israel, which killed at least 1,139 people. At least 1,460 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza since the October 11, 2025 ceasefire went into effect as Israel has continued to expand its area of control. “The bottom line is that under both the Biden administration and the Trump administration, the US has continued to provide unconditional support for Israel, both in terms of finances, arms transfers and other forms, such as diplomatic support,” according to former Department of State official Josh Paul, who now runs A New Policy lobbying firm.

Turkey to deploy troops and air defence systems to Saudi Arabia amid Houthi attacks
Two Turkish officials familiar with Ankara's plans told MEE that Turkey had maintained technical teams, air defence systems and electronic warfare equipment in the kingdom since last year to protect critical infrastructure, including energy facilities. One senior Turkish official said Ankara would send additional equipment, technicians, emergency response teams and accompanying combat forces. The official said a 2010 military training agreement between Saudi Arabia and Turkey allows Ankara to deploy limited forces to the kingdom for technical purposes. Further deployments, however, would require parliamentary authorisation under the Turkish constitution.

Venezuela's Maduro to face new US charges over alleged torture of Americans, official says
Maduro's tenure was marked by tensions with the United States. Washington accused ‌his ⁠government of detaining Americans as leverage to extract concessions such as relief from financial sanctions. Americans whom the US classified as wrongfully detained during Maduro's tenure included five oil executives arrested on graft charges. They were freed in 2022 in exchange for two of Flores' nephews who had been ​convicted in the US ​of drug trafficking.

Some of the men participating in the hunger strike released a video and an open letter, requesting they be released while they continue pursuing their asylum and immigration cases. Two Russian asylum seekers detained in Folkston also released a document they wrote, outlining what they claim to be “violations” inside, including allegations of substandard medical care, threats by GEO Group guards, moldy food and a lack of due process.

The Gen Z revolution reaches Europe – Is Britain next?
What began with an 87-year-old disabled woman being evicted from her home in Madrid has developed into a revolt over the spiralling cost of rent and housing. Within a week, protestors occupied the Puerta del Sol in Madrid, and encampments began to spread across Spain. Half a million people took to the streets of the capital on 3 October, paralysing the city as protesters chanted: “Either the rentier economy falls, or the government does”. Fast-forward to the time of writing – the Spanish government has effectively collapsed. The ‘Socialist’ Party Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez was forced to call snap elections after failing to pass decrees aimed at placating the movement. From Madrid to Seville, and now Barcelona, chants of “your profits, our misery” and “no solution without expropriation” have rung out late into the evening. The radicalisation of the youth is palpable. Red flags have been paraded across the streets and main squares. In one viral clip, an incredulous interviewer asks a protester: “So people are chanting socialism or barbarism here?” to which she responds “Sí”. No further explanation needed. The movement is posing the question: who does the city belong to? Does it belong to the investment funds that speculate on housing and have doubled rents over the last decade, or to the ordinary workers who run the city, but yet are struggling to get by? Some sections of the movement are now calling for a general strike. Watch this space.

Why we should not take sides in war - Devrim Valerian
The Prime Minister wears a T-shirt now. It costs 80 quid, and his jeans cost £295. The very nice Harrington jacket he’s often seen in costs £695. Looking like an ordinary bloke is expensive these days. He’s apologised over Gaza too. He said that Labour “didn’t get it right” and “needs to do better”. It sounded like the British government was finally going to take a position on genocide. Even the climb down sounded a bit more radical than the days of Keir Starmer; “There’s increasing evidence that war crimes appear to have been committed.” But then he told us that it's not a matter for him to decide upon. Instead, it “must be for the internatPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

somehow I dont think this is effective. Its the strategy all loosing center left guys use against the far right. Promise them to actually improve things ya idiot. Promise them to actually rebuild a better system. Although its likely too late, he should have done it already. Use and abuse your fucking power, why are only fascists comprador doing it.

Not only that, but Lula was also an arrogant old man for not choosing and backing his successor earlier, stepping back and retiring from politics. His third term has been mediocre at best. He failed to deal with the debt + high interest rate problem, which is probably what weighs most heavily on the majority of the population, and he’ll be leaving office at 80 years old, 84 if he miraculously wins.

I also don’t think there would have been a Kamala effect if he had backed Alckmin (his VP) as the candidate. Given that the margin between Flávio and Lula’s camp is likely to be relatively narrow, Alckmin could have picked up a meaningful share of the electorate in the South and Southeast, which, btw, is leaning even further to the right because of anti-petism, crime and economic reasons.

I'm ashamed to post this but push came to shove and my situation is desperate. I wanted to give me and my mother a bit of happiness.

I'm 29 and live with my 68yo mother in a 25m rented apartment. I also take care of three kittens. Both me and my mother have serious health issues that make it impossible for us to work. My mother receives disability benefits in Greece but I was assessed at 60%(you need 67%) and I don't get shit. Currently trying to appeal this.

Because of this, we live in extreme poverty. For more than half of this month we’ve basically been surviving on plain pasta with sauce.

I'm asking for a very small donation so we can finally order a couple of meals and eat something different for the next few days. Food in Greece is relatively cheap so only a small tip will suffice.

I understand people might be skeptical but I can provide proof about our living conditions and also post the food ordered. If someone is from Greece, they can order themselves for us if they want.

If anyone reads this and wants to help, it will be greatly appreciated.

Read this book right now
A major problem I've been noticing through the years is that nobody fucking understands what dialectical materialism actually is. This book is entirely about explaining dialectical materialism.
Of course, it speaks of the philosophies that come before it but only to explain dialectical materialism itself (this is by itself a dialectical process, btw)

Read this shit and spread it!

He say that dialectics is dangerous.. you can return that to him. Like if a contradictions get ignored, you can show ecology, etc, you know.

Also google Right to distress Hegel. But idk if google will show you that, but for me it shows Kant. For Kant moral is empty or pure? So he consider this action still morally wrong. While you can see content in Hegels reply.

I think this is a really concerning development if you haven't noticed this by now, especially considering the election in Brazil, where almost every evangelical voted for Bolsonaro, and almost every catholic for Lula.

This sudden explosion in hyper-reactionary evangelism in Latin America (even more reactionary than Brazilian integralism) seems not entirely organic. Liberation theology was always a thorn in the side of the US aspirations on the continent, and none of the communist leaders in Latin America was an atheist (I am not sure about Che). Countering this with evangelical influence is something the CIA has tried for a long time, but this time a lot of the money these communities seem to receive comes from private American Christian think tanks.

I live in Germany and the liberal party (FDP) here has opened some "liberal house" near the train station - on Sunday, I noticed, it is rented out to a Brazilian pentacostal evangelist community, so it seems that there is an international network behind it as well.

One of the hallmarks is their ultra-zionism, which makes sense, as a lot of Latin American governments used to support Palestine, even the right-wing Catholic ones. Guatemala was hit especially hard, and the indigenous there already survived an US-backed genocide.

Take the Brazilian football team, they used to be entirely Catholic when they won their last World Cup in 2002. Now it's dominated by evangelicals, who also appear as "Christian incluencers" off the pitch, and they all support Bolsonaro. Same in Colombia.

I think this one is kind of a toss-up if the countries with these big surges in population with very religious populations either really go to shit from the double whammy of imperialism and climate change(religion goes up) or become more developed and urbanized(religion goes down). I could see it going either way honestly.

I don't know what you mean by that. Countries going to shit correlates with both religousness and and increase in birth rates so you are just bolstering my argument.

>Simplified Chinese was officially introduced by the government of the People's Republic of China in the 1950s as part of a broader effort to increase literacy and modernize the country. The reform reduced the number of strokes in many commonly used characters and standardized certain character forms, making them easier and faster to learn and write. Although the government promoted the reform, it drew on simplification practices and proposals that had existed for centuries. The primary goal was to help expand education and enable more people, especially those with limited access to schooling, to become literate. Simplified Chinese is now the standard writing system in China and Singapore, while Traditional Chinese remains in use in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau.

linguistics is a good barometer for people's real political views because there are few things more inherently democratic than human language, this emergent system that forms naturally out of lots and lots of people communicating and using words and inventing new words and repurposing or discarding old words every minute of every day and is utterly impossible for any authority figure to dictate. the nature of it is so self-evident that only a truly stupid or unhinged control freak could think that language is something that can be governed by some ruler or committee who would somehow make alterations to the language and force the entire world to accept them and follow them and preserve them in their everyday social interactions.

>>2927407

is it though. the ruling class has always defined what is the "proper way" of speaking and it's, wouldn't you know it, not how the working masses speak.

>is it though. the ruling class has always defined what is the "proper way" of speaking and it's, wouldn't you know it, not how the working masses speak.

yes exactly, it's not how the working classes speak. no matter how hard they try, how much they beat it into your head from early childhood onward throughout public school and all your exposure to mainstream media that this particular dialect is the correct way to speak and this is what "proper grammar" is and everything, people continue to speak in all these "non-standard" dialects and innovating and developing them in all their everyday social interactions, all the ruling class manage to do is govern how language is used in very specific small highly-formalized domains like journalism and academia and legalese and corporate communications, and even within these domains the language is mutating and deviating from "proper english" with jargon like "let's go to a sot" or "i'm going to run these off" or "they threw the book at him" or "we need to touch base on this" etc. even in north korea, which is probably the most highly-restricted authoritarian society in the world, the government is constantly struggling to enforce the national language and their efforts are constantly undermined by north korean youth appropriating foreign words and phrases or inventing their own colloquialisms that spread from peer group to peer group and from school to school before anyone in authority can even be aware of it. language is just too natural and too human a thing to really govern, it's like trying to govern a bodily function, which is really what language is at the individual level, a biological structure that develops inside the brain.
