I think to put my position more clearly. None of this shit, adventurism, militantism, whatever can ever succeed against the US military unless we had greater than 50% of the population on our side. And if we had that, there would be no need to go any other route other than "electoralism" (as Marx prescribed, don't make me post all the quotes, but I will)

Latin America didn't have landowners and capitalists before the US got involved there? They weren't oppressing peasants? There was no slavery or Indigenous genocide?

>And what did that change or accomplish? Now a probably more right wing politician is in power in Japan.
it did kind of go better than planned because weirdly enough the japanese media and public sympathized with the assassin after hearing his story about a (korean) cult ruining his life. and as a result japan's government passed some new anti-cult laws. it probably ironically contributed to Takaichi becoming prime minister as the "korean cult" aspect fueled japanese nationalist anti-korean rhetoric in the country.

you're a fucking retard lol. even the bolsheviks and pla had like less than 10% of their respective countries on their side when the revolutions started.

to be clear I'm not advocating potd or adventurism for its own sake but rather if there was a will for americans to revolt the "military power gap" is not something that can't be addressed when it comes to it. insurgencies primarily rely on hand-made equipment and improvised weapons. even modern day insurgencies are mostly just farmers with pitchforks because believe it or not guns are only effective if your enemy lines up to get shot. if you're being surrounded on all sides in deep urban environments where enemies have endless corners to hide behind, bashing you over the head with a metal pipe is just as deadly as a bullet.

Bolivia declares state of emergency amid blockade crisis
According to a government statement, the decree will last 90 days but could be lifted earlier if “violence and threats against the population come to an end”. But more specifically, the decree prohibits “blocking streets, avenues, roads and highways in ways that affect transportation and supplies”. It also orders the armed forces to temporarily support the police “in restoring order, reopening roads and protecting the population.”

Peru's Sánchez calls a protest against the result that makes Fujimori the virtual winner
The march, called by Juntos por el Perú (JPP) “in defense of the popular vote,” will be attended by Sánchez himself. The Lima municipality limited vehicle access to the rally area. JPP challenged 2,398 polling tables in Lima and the United States —where the vote favored Fujimori— and filed a total of 32 appeals before the Special Electoral Juries, which were due to decide Friday whether to admit them; if the differences persist, a new recount in a public audience would follow.

Venezuelan Gov’t Launches US-Backed Dialogue with Hardline Opposition
Upon arriving at the airport on Thursday, Figuera told reporters that she had traveled to Venezuela at the invitation of the US State Department, with her tasks including the establishment of a “credible” electoral council. She added that her work intends to benefit all political forces while avoiding questions about whether the initiative had been coordinated with far-right leader María Corina Machado.

DOJ memo stokes fear among disability advocates of a return to institutionalization
Without the federal government requiring that states provide these services – to help disabled people integrate into their communities – advocates and legal experts warn that cash-strapped states could cut them and return to what was once common practice: de facto segregation of Americans with disabilities in nursing homes and large institutions.

France’s Left Can't Abandon Workers to the Far Right Interview with Danièle Obono
In less than a year’s time, France will head to the polls to elect a new president. Two of the dominant figures in French politics over the past decade will not be on the ballot. President Emmanuel Macron is constitutionally barred from seeking a third consecutive term, while Marine Le Pen, leader of the Rassemblement National (RN; formerly Front National), has been barred from running following her embezzlement conviction. In her place, the RN’s thirty-year-old Party resident, Jordan Bardella, is leading polling in both the first and second rounds. The French left, however, remains divided. The relative success of the Nouveau Front Populaire (NFP) — an electoral alliance bringing together much of the Left, in 2024, which emerged as the largest bloc in the National Assembly — has given way to growing tensions between its constituent parties, most notably Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s France Insoumise (LFI) and the Parti Socialiste (PS). In an interview, Thomas Glasman met with Danièle Obono, a France Insoumise parliamentarian for Paris and one of the party’s most prominent anti-racist and internationalist voices, who has served in the National Assembly since 2017. They discussed the fragmentation of the French left, the rise of racialized politics, and how to confront an increasingly powerful far right.

The Left Voted Tactically in Makerfield – and the Right Should Take Note
Nobody expected the scale of Andy Burnham’s victory in the Makerfield byelection this morning – including many of those around him. A week ago I was told that canvassing returns were looking strong for Labour in the Greater Manchester seat, giving the party as much as 50% of the vote. While I was certain Burnham could win – particularly after speaking to voters here – I still found that figure hard to believe. In the end Burnham won 55% of the vote, beating Reform UK’s Robert Kenyon by more than 9,000 votes. On the BBC shortly after the result, Mike Tapp, a prominent figure on the Labour right, was trying to play down the result, saying Burnham would have to call a general election in the event of becoming prime minister and deviating frPost too long.

Has anyone noticed the uptick in liberal nostalgia for the Obama Era in recent months?

Maybe this comes on the heels of Mamdani’s mayorship and how Mamdani largely reminds shitlibs of Obama. But regardless, I’m seeing a lot of these people romanticize the late-2000s-early-2010s time as being one where “America was flourishing” and “politics was civil”. As if Obama didn’t break every single promise he made. As if Obama didn’t engage in far more foreign interventions than GWB and the Neocon gang, albeit through proxy armies and drone warfare. As if Obamacare wasn’t a massive boost for the health insurance companies. Not to mention how Obama did nothing for the Black community.

As a side note, I’m also seeing these same exact shitlibs romanticize Occupy Wall Street. As someone who took part in Occupy and who slept in Zuccotti Park, I clearly remember how much liberals HATED Occupy when it first took off. They were telling us something along the lines of: “You commies and anarkids need to STFU and let Obama do his job.” Now, I’m seeing liberals say Occupy was the last attempt of implementing left-wing populism in America, and that the corporate media deliberately pushed identity politics right after Occupy ended in order to divide-and-conquer the population so they would never rise up against the billionaires again. I mean, where were all these people when we were getting brutalized by the NYPD? Pathetic.

Don't you have that backwards Black Power anon? Isn't it the race of the father that decides? What is your argument for the mother being the decider? Do you have a theory? I guess the absentee father theory certainly works as is the case with Obama, but what if he was raised by his Black father?

This is exactly what they say about hapas which typically trend to White father Asian mother. Why do you think that the children would lean more towards a White mother vs White father.

How? Other than in the Cuban Revolution, which originally wasn't even a communist revolution, and the Chinese Revolution, which also wasn't communist mind you (https://solarcollective.comrades.sbs/assets/pdfs/Theses_on_the_Chinese_Question.pdf), fucking off from the populace and starving in the jungle has never worked. Look at Peru, the Philippines, India and even in Turkey, militant tactics have never worked in contemporary attempts of a social revolutions. The working class must be organized in their workplaces and communists should take action with them, not without them. Individualist militant tactics only create the justification for suppression that the bourgeois state needs.

State of Emergency declared.

Bolivia's Paz declares state of emergency to break protest gridlock
LA PAZ, June 20 (Reuters) - Bolivia’s political and social crisis intensified on Saturday as President Rodrigo Paz declared a state of emergency, enabling ​wider military deployment to clear blockades and restore order amid protests that have brought the economy to a halt over the past 50 ‌days.

Addressing the nation early Saturday morning, Paz said anti-government blockades were no longer a social protest but an organized attempt to destabilize Bolivia's democracy.

"There comes a moment when failing to act ceases to be prudence and becomes irresponsibility. And that moment has arrived," Paz said, promising the measure would protect citizens and ensure the flow of essential goods, while warning that those ​continuing disruptions would face legal consequences.

Some opposition lawmakers have warned the emergency measure could further ratchet up tensions, while analysts and legal experts have also said the emergency ​powers could deepen unrest if they lack public support and fail to address underlying causes of protests.

Paz made the announcement just hours after he unveiled a deal struck on Friday with the main union, the Bolivian Workers’ Confederation (COB), that aimed to ease tension.
However, many roads connecting the South American nation's main production center are under the control of rural associations aligned with Morales, ​who were not a part of the negotiations and are continuing to protest mainly in the area of Cochabamba.

Alright, I think I've pieced together who the fed behind the anti-juche posting actually is. And if I'm right, this goes way back.

Some of you might remember a long-time 420chan /pol/ user who went by X8 (pretty sure those were the last two digits of his poster ID). This guy was a 4chan /b/ lurker first, but he spent years on 420chan's /pol/ board. He was from the Seattle area, and he had a very personal axe to grind.

>>his parents owned a small business in Seattle that got tagged as "gentrifiers" by local anarchist groups.


>>They started targeting the place, graffiti, harassment, the works. This dude was pissed.


>>He made thread after thread about how he was "witnessing anarchists take over the city of Seattle" and how he was going to school for criminal justice and homeland security.


>>He'd go on for days about how he was going to catch these anarchists and ruin their lives.


>>He wasn't just talking. He was doing Jr. detective shit for free as a teenager. He'd post actual evidence photos of the graffiti on his parents business, timestamps, notes all archived to 420chan.


>>Even his parents told him to let it go, to which he called them typical seattle liberal pushovers

That they'd be the same person seems unlikely. Interesting character though.

The guy is either doing a kind-of-fun and really involved ARG or he's not larping and is actually as obsessed and deranged as he demonstrates every time he posts. Makes me wonder how many people in three-letter-agencies are completely obsessed and have personal vendettas.

I suppose much of the structure of the nation-state is prototyped in the structure of imperial colonies. A nation is a colony without a metropole. The frustrated colonial bureaucracy removed their overlords but kept much of the same underlying structure.

It's because of the patriarchy unironically, the feminists are right on this one.

the capitalist class have a stranglehold on the most powerful propaganda apparatus in the world though they wield inefficiently. even so, it is so enormous it drowns out and kills or subsumes any burgeoning class conscious community. through it they redirect class grievances which everyone feels into more base and vulgar struggles (national supremacy, ethnic supremacy).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_consciousness

>Some political analysts have focused on where people's understanding of their interests originates. In an essay entitled "False Consciousness", Michael Parenti challenges the assumption that working-class Americans freely define their interests but then choose, for various reasons, to think and act against those interests. Instead he writes that "the development of one's own interests and political consciousness in general may be stunted or distorted by misinformation, disinformation, and a narrow but highly visible mainstream political agenda that rules out feasible alternatives".[14] Parenti's contention is that ideological confusion is being propagated in the nation's politics and mass media and thereby causes people to misjudge what their real interests are.
