What is the leftypol consensus on Western Neo-Dengist economics, specifically economists such as Isabella Weber, that are making huge waves right now?

Doesn't this just make her a Keynesian of some kind?

>>2945775
Weber goes beyond conventional Keynesianism. While Keynes classically focused primarily on managing aggregate demand Weber goes beyond and advocates for direct market intervention, such as price controls (big no-no until recently within Western mainstream econ) and actual state participation in commodity markets and her background as a China expert allowed her to have this platform and influence.

She is also influenced by Marxian political economy and institutional economics and which explains that's why she has a disproportionate influence economic history, power relations and the political construction of markets as in the central idea that markets aren't natural or neutral mechanisms, but institutions shaped by political decisions and state action, etc.

I mean you can call her post-Keynesian-influenced of some flavor but at this point this term is pretty meaningless because it's quite a catch-all term at this point.

Interesting, so if I’m a petty bourgeois or a farmer, is there a place for me under Maoism? Will this always be the case, or will I eventually lose my property and communism arrives?
Is it just me, or do I see parallels with Strasserism in these quotes?

>>2945933
>eventually lose my property
That's why things in China are technically not yours, they're just extremely long government leases that can be re-issued, since it's around 80 years on average it has not so far been contested so what would happen is speculation.

Dengism isnt really a thing.
Dengism is the collection over decades of somewhat rational decisions ('rational' assuming capitalist status-quo) taken by a government which has accepted capitalism as a simple, matter-of-fact reality, and either denounces or postpones revolutionary bifurcation.

even more simply: 'DENGISM' AS UNDERSTOOD BY THE WESTERNER IN 2026 IS DeGAULISM WITHOUT THE HASSLE OF (MULTIPARTY) ELECTIONS AND THE BOON OF A LARGE TERRITORY AND POPULATION.

American capital is becoming increasily divided over its failed imperialist campaign crushing the strikes would be a lot more harder now then because automatic weapons exist (aka the population is even more armed tjen it was in the past).

I kinda wish I explored the civil war part of what I said but I also think it's not gonna be state vs state, instead its gonna be city/munipial government vs federal/state government, with a bunch of cults, milltias, and such fighting all sides (since all of which have formed during serve crisis in the USA)

the DSA will try and larp as revolutionaries but no one will care and they'll fizzle out

>>2937220
My predictions: Dems win, pause the war against BRICS so the USA can resupply and rearm, GOP wins next like always, war against BRICS restarted. Nothing happens domestically (Occupy/BLM were nothing)

Probably wrong the dems are winning the senate



 

It's Tuesday, November 3rd. And midterms in the USA. So, I'm reminding you that if you haven't voted already, it's time to vote.

GO VOTE.
GO TO THE POLLS AND GO VOTE.

america has no real left. none of us in the acp are voting while you anarcho liberals and dssa pedophiles have full blown meltdowns when told to stay home. you partake in this rotting society with a fervor that is pathetic to watch. i wonder why you cling so tight to a system that eats your soul? every day i wake up in amerikkka i see people who do not belong to the left surrounding me. even the anti capitalists among us are just as controlled and content as the rest of the sheep. it manifests differently but the result is the same. you are comfortable. you know you are comfortable because if your precious society burned you would look at the flames with fear instead of that dark twinkle we have in our eyes. you get that twinkle from casting a ballot or buying something on sale. you are sedated by consumerism and participation. every day i consider leaving and watching the place burn from the outside with all of you losers trapped inside. iran russia and china would be fully justified to militarily destroy your soft fragile society because you clearly cannot do it yourselves.


I hate to be a cultural supremacist, but America is low tier for everything. It is a plastic society, with plastic people. The DSA is a plastic revolution. It's so fitting. Russia, is a real society. It is objectively better to live in Russia than it is in the USA.

based. Sounds like China is just selling their normal humdingers and doodads to paying customers, and people really don't think the Palestinians benefit from this trade. But because Shyna trades more in absolute dollar amounts it's the exact same thing as sending arms and weapons and being Israel first. I know this website is a piece of shit with all sorts of fake troll posts, but I really don't know what the so-called left actually believes anymore.

Haley Stevens’ Endorsement of Republican Mike Rogers Signals Deep Divide within the Democratic Party
It would be a mistake to view Stevens’ concerns as just her own. They are the real concerns of the Democratic Party establishment, which has made it clear that it will fight to sideline the Left inside the party and uphold the class character of the Democratic Party as a party of capital. While the Democratic Party establishment condemned Stevens for her endorsement of Rogers and even removed her from an El-Sayed election rally for her public criticisms of him, it should not be assumed that the party’s establishment and the Left have “unified.” The establishment Democrats are embracing El-Sayed in ways they are not embracing Florida Dem Senate candidate Angie Nixon because Michigan is a swing state and El-Sayed has shown his willingness to work with the establishment and embrace more centrist politics. The most prominent examples of this are his meeting with Kamala Harris, his public support for capitalism, and his rejection of defunding the police. Stevens’s defection shows that sectors of the Democratic Party will side with the Right rather than cede space to campaigns that challenge to some degree a status quo in which capitalists are free to profit while working people can’t make ends meet, billions of dollars are sent to support genocide and imperialist war, and immigrants are targeted for deportation and detention using the most violent xenophobic rhetoric. The Democratic Party exists to keep capitalist profits flowing and U.S. imperialism dominant while mediating discontent from below. Whether El-Sayed wins or not on Tuesday, he and other other progressive populist candidates face this opposition from within their own party. This spells trouble for their ability to push their agenda through Congress, and for a strategy that relies on an imperialist party to make gains for the working class and oppressed.

class structure in the periphery isn't the same as in the imperial core, that much should be obvious to anyone familiar with the concept of imperialism/who's familiar with lenin's works or even some more recent books like monopoly capital by sweezy

is it then reasonable to treat books like catherine liu's book on PMC as anything more than a fun fact on how fruits of labour captured by MNCs via FDI get distributed in the imperial core with no relevance to your country's situation at large?

I ask because I got into an argument with someone over a podcast that talked about this, I essentially said that it is futile to discuss it in the periphery and it was somehow a "controversial" opinion to have

I came across these posts online. Does this mean there’s an American Christo-fascist conspiracy in the world that uses anti-LGBT populism to promote its agenda?

Translation of the post:

<Because since 2013, Russia has been involved in promoting a multinational conservative-religious propaganda campaign.

<Before 2013, nobody really cared about the fight for gay rights. In fact, anti-discrimination laws were even being prepared for adoption. These laws were supposed to protect LGBT people in the workplace and pave the way for further reforms.
<But in 2013, Russia was visited by Scott Douglas Lively, a right-wing conservative from California and one of the main architects of the international anti-gay propaganda movement. And I'm not fucking joking about the main architect part.
<He toured Europe and Africa, delivering lectures in every country, funded by churches and religious organizations, while meeting with local politicians and lawmakers. In every country he visited, he told Europeans and Africans about the supposed homosexual threat that was destroying their nations and would lead to their extinction. HE EVEN BROUGHT THE SAME PROGRAM TO AFRICA, USING THE SAME METHODS! He talked about how the United States wanted to corrupt them and lower their birth rates.
<He was responsible for introducing the death penalty for homosexuality in Uganda. He arrived in the country and began spreading fear among the local population. A few years later, they passed a law introducing the death penalty for homosexual acts.
<After that, he visited nine former Soviet countries. In eight out of those nine countries, discriminatory laws against LGBT people were passed following his visits.
<In 2007, he arrived in Russia and visited 50 Russian cities, delivering lectures and meeting with local politicians in each of them.
<In 2013, he wrote an open letter to the Russian people, urging the authorities to pass a law banning gay propaganda as soon as possible, warning them about the supposed threat.
<In 2013, the first version of Russia's anti-LGBT propaganda law was introduced.

I suspect "The Pink Swastika" is Israeli propaganda. Israel is well known as a hive of sex trafficking. Painting queer people as Nazis and the real child predators protects Israeli interests. It's part of the whole Judeo-Christian values thing. Israel is weird with its schizo rainbow-washing and courting of Evangelicals and the Haredim but idk. I think preaching queerphobia in former Soviet countries is in part a way to advance the interests of Cold War anti-communist networks. Everyone I don't like is a Nazi is in any case a very Israeli tactic.

>>2945153
>Does this mean there’s an American Christo-fascist conspiracy in the world that uses anti-LGBT populism to promote its agenda?
It's been going on for decades, ever since these people were sending aid and support to CIA-backed regimes in Central and South America. Christian nationalists are literally the most powerful movement in American politics. Religious extremists have been the strongest footsoldiers of the CIA, even in Russia itself with ISIS-K.
>>2945253
>"Actually being gay was invented by the Nazis"
I can't wait for this tired canard to die. The Nazis themselves explicitly proscribed homosexuality, expanding Paragraph 175 into one of the most stringent anti-LGBT laws in history, where even homosexual thoughts were illegal. To the Nazis, homosexuality was a "crime against nature" because men were intended to propagate the Volk by marrying and producing children. Homosexuals were seen as putting themselves over the Volk and Fuehrer. After the former Axis Powers were incorporated into the US-led anti-Communist alliance via NATO and the San Francisco System, their fascist ideologies were incorporated as well. Anti-LGBT sentiment was a major part of the ideology of the Western Bloc, where they were considered Communist subversives out to destroy Western society in an echo of the "Judeo-bolshevism" of the Nazis.
