>1.70 to 80 percent of the world have always been, are and will be always be queer, mainly bi. Actually half of people are secretly bi. They don't know it or repress it.

It's always shocking to me how common sexual solipcism is among bi people, even more so than among straights, you would think it was the opposite but no.

The online left is a liability and the left needs to touch grass and kick out the incels and femcels if they refuse to log off and get black in touch with reality

If I had to give a controversial opinion it would be that prostitution needs to be legalized. Idk if that’s controversial or not but I never see it discussed outside of lgbtq/bdsm circles.

‘Every day the policy changes’: chaos and confusion for Filipino workers over US immigration rules
Jay is one of thousands of Filipinos in vital care-giving roles in America whose lives have become more precarious under the Trump administration’s chaotic crackdown on immigration, forcing some into more vulnerable working conditions. It is an experience he has already lived. Together with his colleague Lei*, Jay was employed in a residential aged care home where he was made to work months without a single day off. Lei slept underneath the stairs; Jay in a storage room.

History is Calling us: Let’s Follow Kaypakkaya’s Path! — TKP-ML/MKP
History, within its own cycle, has vindicated Comrade Leader; before long, workers and peasants flocked to the revolutionary struggle in droves. This was what could not be seen in the pitch-black darkness of March 12, and Comrade Leader İbrahim Kaypakkaya has slammed this reality in the face of every form of liquidationism. Today, however, the historical cycle has created a new dilemma. Either a free world will be created through the power of necessity to create the new; or, swept into the vortex of reformism, pacifism, and every current that rejects the revolutionary option, we will become mere pillars of this decaying, obsolete order of the past. This is precisely the dilemma being imposed on the international communist movement and the international proletariat today. The pillars of the imperialist capitalist system have eroded. The imperialist capitalist system is floundering in a crisis vortex. The widening and deepening of the rift between imperialist blocs has intensified the struggle for dominance over market areas and trade routes. Shrinking markets and losses of hegemony are pushing the imperialist bloc led by the U.S. and Britain into a more aggressive and belligerent stance against China and Russia. At this stage, the doors to a new imperialist war of partition are being forced wide open. Conflicts and wars have become widespread, particularly in the Middle East and Africa, in line with imperialist competition. Precisely for this reason, a comprehensive campaign of liquidation has been launched against the communist and resistance movements engaged in armed struggle, aimed at preventing the oppressed peoples of the world from turning to the revolutionary option in the face of this crisis. The concept of annihilation and destruction has been put into action through various means.

Sovintern and WAP: False Anti-Imperialism in Red Disguise
In Moscow, the so-called new international socialist network, Sovintern, has been launched under the leadership of the Russian capital's own “left patriots.” The initiative is presented with grand rhetoric about socialism, anti-imperialism, anti-colonial struggle, and international solidarity. Yet behind the red symbols, a different reaPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

The second one is obviously correct.
>yet I often see takes approximating the first one on here. Why is that?
Because people are stuck in a Comintern Third Period LARP when communists actually had the strength to accomplish shit on their own, and there was far less common ground or interests between them and other political forces.

1. shitting and screaming online isnt a good representation of what communists today or in the past engaging in praxis actually do
   
2. the second is another flat strawman but in the other direction. distinctions have been made. thats why we even have different terms for it, like, poopular front (where you capitulate to Kamala Harris to save bourgeois democracy), united front from above (where you capitulate to Sir Keir Starmer to save bourgeois democracy), united front from below (where you tactically collaborate with grassroots labor unions who don't follow your exact program or even tendency, in order to strike the hardest blow possible to all bourgeois forces), social-fascism thesis / third period (the "brilliant" tactic where you self-isolate the militant laborers in red unions and in an adventurist and commandist manner call everyone not apart of your tiny orgs "fascists".
   

I think united front from below is both the one that retains relevance in the developed material conditions of today, but also having the better historical W/L ratio.

Don't let this mod's flagfagging fool you >>2834336
he is neither a syndicalist or a Marxist and is real bullish on bourgeois capitulationism

Remember: capitalism is today global
Peasantry is diminishing to a politically irrelevant force
Proletariat is the global majority
Electrification and digitization is the norm
The proletariat is the revolutionary class and I am posting this instantly from possibly the other side of the globe, a comment on the capacities for international class communication

Liquidate the bourgeoisie

Nobody knows anything about poor old Laos

LAOS ENERGY SUPERPOWER BY 2050!!!!!

>How the hell is there less information about Laos than about even North Korea?
Small landlocked nation, too isolated to be noticed outside it's region.

North Korea in contrast is largely known, because most of the western world, fought a war against it, and is in an inactive war between it's rival in the South, backed by the US.

Also, the peninsula has larger than life historical personalities.

Within the context of this thread (Marxism) those are not "rightists" (US lib definition) but simply fascists.

Trotsky's definition is best.

Read critique of the Gotha programme

No.

Just fighting for higher wage is economist. Read "what is to be done" Lenin explained how economism and trade-unionism harming the revolution.

>>2834067
did you read the second part of the post?

Fighting for higher wages is a tactic, not the end goal obviously. It's a VERY useful tactic.

1) It exposes fraudulent opportunists who can no longer hide behind slogans and have to pick a side in the class war.

2) It also reveals to workers the limits of capitalism. When merely fighting for higher wages doesn't solve all problems, workers can be shown that eliminating the wage system itself is necessary.

3) Militant action gives workers experience on how to organize and how to resist state power

4) The battles increase solidarity between workers.

Wrong
Russia was industrializing

>intellectual class
no such thing

>They all got from feudalism to socialism without even putting down capitalism.
The idea that you must go through a formulaic progression through each stage of development is dogmatic I think. The real significance of Marx's works is that socialism is impossible before capitalism and capitalist methods of production (i.e. industrialization) are widespread. It doesn't follow from this that each individual country needs to be capitalist before it can be socialist, especially if the techniques and technology to establish an industrial base can simply be imported from capitalist countries, as the Soviets did. Marx argued that Western Europe was already ready for a socialist revolution in the mid 19th century, despite the fact that the bulk of the population were still peasants.
>Furthermore, if I remember correctly, the revolutions which took place in those country came from the intellectual class instead of the proletariat.
You remember incorrectly. All political movements have a component of intelligentsia. The class character of a movement is determined by who forms the bulk of its ranks, strongest base of support, and what objective class interests it represents.

Were they state capitalist? I remember some writer criticizing this view of the USSR because it had so many small private farms.
