What the LeftyPol's opinion on the dangers of AI going rogue? Do you think is just fantasy and fear mongering or there's a genuine existential risk with AI? Should I prepare to make plan in case AI goes rogue?

Iran says conditions to re-engage in talks, end war sent to US via Qatar
“Our conditions are an end to the war on all fronts, the release of our frozen funds and an end to the naval blockade,” said Rezaei, who took over as secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council about a month ago. “It is in Washington’s interest to accept these conditions. Trump’s threats will not achieve any results. We are prepared for a decisive war.”

Türkiye revokes Iranian Bank Mellat’s operating license after 44 years
Bank Mellat is one of Iran’s major financial institutions, with about 47.9 quadrillion Iranian rials ($34.8 billion) in total assets as of March 2026, according to Iranian financial-data provider Shakhesban.Bank Mellat has faced sanctions and financial restrictions from the U.S., European Union, and U.K. over its alleged links to Iran’s nuclear and missile programs. The U.S. Treasury first designated the bank in October 2007, accusing it of providing financial services to Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization.

Flames, smoke seen near Riyadh airport; Houthis claim attacks on Saudi capital
Reuters video and photographs showed a huge pillar of black smoke rising in the area, with the airport highway, main terminal building and other facilities in the foreground. At one point in the video, flames were visible rising from behind what appeared to be fuel tanks. The Houthis did not specify what they had targeted in Riyadh, but said they had also attacked an Aramco facility in the Red Sea city of Yanbu, a key Saudi oil export hub.

Judge rules EPA illegally terminated $7 billion solar program intended to help poorer Americans
The Environmental Protection Agency rescinded the Solar for All funds in August 2025 after President Donald Trump’s massive tax and spending law passed in Congress a month earlier, with Administrator Lee Zeldin calling the Biden-era grant program a “boondoggle.”

Trump signs bill imposing sanctions on Russia and giving him more power to levy tariffs
But it also gives Trump wide leeway over its implementation, including which countries could face tariffs, and which tariff rates could be imposed. It also gives the president sweeping discretion over whether sanctions provisions can be waived against certain countries. Controversially, it allows Trump to impose tariffs of up to 100% on buyers of Russian energy, including China, and on other countries that help Moscow to evade sanctions.

Lawsuit says Anthropic, OpenAI, SpaceXAI and Google made illegal agreement on AI slowdown
The coordination largely took place on Sept. 12, the lawsuit argues, when Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei published an essay urging for industrywide cooperation on decelerating advancements in favor of enhanced safety measures. That same day, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, SpaceXAI CEO Elon Musk and Google DeepMind’s co-founder and chair Demis Hassabis each publicly responded to Amodei’s proposals in agreement.

The Mary Wallopers’ ‘Paddywhackery’: an antidote against pessimism
In a recent interview with Spill Magazine, Charles Hendy – founding member of the Irish folk band The Mary Wallopers – had this to say about creating folk music today: “People like to think folk music is really people just sitting around singing ‘Kumbaya’… The folk songs of antiquity up until now are not like that. Folk music is not meant to be soft. It is hard music. It is social, political and it is aggressive. We want to inject a bit of that into it.” Ironically, today it’s the leaders of the official ‘left’ who are doing little more than sitting around singing ‘Kumbaya’ while the world burns. The Mary Wallpapers, meanwhile, are releasing their third and best album to date, Paddywhackery. This album isn’t just a criticism of capitalism, but a powerful antidote against pessimism – a clarion call to the working class and the oppressed to recognise their collective power.

The Uprising Wastes a Good Class-Struggle Story
In 1381, more than a hundred thousand poor English people rose up demanding an end to serfdom. During the uprising, they killed a coterie of hated government officials, and, in turn, the fourteen-year-old King Richard II massacred thousands of them. The best-remembered figure of the English Peasants’ Revolt is one of its leaders, John Ball, whose speeches and sermons captured the spirit of what would eventually, centuries later, develop into socialism. “When Adam delved and Eve span, who was then the gentleman?” he famously asked, meaning that in the Garden of Eden, the Bible’s first people labored only for their own sustenance, with no concepts of lords and serfs. As a socialist and fan of medieval period pieces, I was excited to see the new film The Uprising, which dramatizes the English Peasants’ Revolt and stars Andrew Garfield as a fed-up farmer-rebel. The subject matter has the makings of a thrilling class-struggle movie — and indeed, Garfield and director Paul Greengrass (Captain Phillips, two films in the Bourne trilogy, and Bloody Sunday) promoted the movie as a tale of resistance to oligarchy. As The Hollywood Reporter writes, “The Uprising feels strikingly of the moment. MPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Even though it has been generally declining over the decades (especially among the youth), Most people still support their monarchies. Is there like a deep ideological reason or just the inherent conservatism/patriotism of the average person, Considering than in other developed republican places (Switzerland, Czech republic, South Korea) You'd basically get no one who wants to restore a monarchy?

Monarchy abolition is rising so much among the young and most of their support is based on either religious or nationalist ideas that are going outdated which begs the question: Will monarchies survive the 21st century??

I am not even a right winger. I have written some of the harshest criticisms of monarchy and the tsar and in defense of the Russian revolution. That criticism of monarchy was good. I support executing the tsar. That is why I said most and not all criticism of monarchy is "faggotry." Anti-monarchism is good when it comes from communists.

Revolution against a monarchy has to be communist. Otherwise you are just replacing an easy target (a monarch) with a nebulous group of investors that is harder to defeat. In effect this kind of anti-monarchism strengthens the class system instead of overcoming it. This is why my alarm bells immediately went off when I saw the OP prattling on about abolishing the monarchy without talking about abolishing capitalism. Frankly I think this thread is stupid and that is the basis of my reaction.
>>2915497
>At least the nebulous capitalists are not by blood above the law, fuck em.
What is this bullshit idealism? Nebulous capitalists are above the law, that is why we call it called bourgeoisie law. This is Marxism 101. Its much easier for us to deal with monarchs in the modern day. We know where they live and we know how to behead them.

You know what, you're right. I just really hate these incestuous parasites, their pomp and the retards defending their backwards institution.

If republican sentiment is on the rise, I would say that is a good thing. It is often only the workers' parties in these nations that want to abolish the monarchy, so that should be an opportunity for us.

Let’s say hypothetically the Democrats win the next election. Then what? Aren’t they part of the same cabal? Are they actually interested in prosecuting Republicans, de-escalating anti-immigration initiatives, releasing the Epstein files, etc.? Biden made it clear how Democrats secretly continue whatever the Republicans have done with Israel as the most egregious example. People see MAGA stepping down as a relieve, but with the Dems the lying and heinousness doesn’t end. So what’s the plan?

Ad hominem is not in itself a fallacy, it’s only a fallacy when used to dismiss a specific argument. You’re not even logic pedant-ing right.

I'm an engineering student and I had an internship last summer in a factory. I like to imagine I understand dialectical materialism pretty well, having read all the books and articles you see recommended in reading lists from the works of Marx, Engles, Lenin, Stalin, mao and others as well as consuming content on the daily analyzing these books. I felt I was ready to discuss dialectical materialism with the factory workers and I gave it my best to make the discussion seem organic and to say thought provoking things and guide them to the conclusions themselves while staying down to earth but the workers never took me seriously and started making jokes at my expense, it's from then they lost all respect for me. Why are the working class like this?

>>2915595
The old is overtaken by the new, internal conditions are the most important thing for change to come about, warmth can turn auygh into a chick but can't turn a stone into a chick, as in geography does not determine the stage of development a country is in. dialectics and shit like everything has contradictions in it and having contradictions is Normal, eventually these contradictions will cause clashes between the two opposites and one of the two will immerge as victorious but with time new contradictions will arise to meet it.
Let's see… What else? Oh, I almost for got; fuck the KMT.

>>2915595
Contradictions n shiet, comrade mao warned about not letting them turn you into a dogmatic far leftist and specifically challenge his leadership over the CCP. Yeah, on contradiction was very interesting. Especially that it's written in a very easy and plain way to understand because mao actually wrote it and on practice for the average illiterate fuckass peasant soldier in his army. He also offers lots of examples when explaining a point. Mao's writings are the easiest to read for this reason.

You need an existing labor movment if you want to make a merger of socialism and the movement. Otherwise you are trying to spread socialism by convicing one person, and then another, and then another…

The labor movement is the objective condition and your knowledge of theory and your application is the subjective condition.

The workers first need to understand that they part of the labor movement before they can pass on to communist consciousness.



 

communist ideolgy falls on a sliding scale

the ideologies that are the most objectively correct and have a solid foundation of theory are the less actionable armchair ideologies that never get anything done (leftcoms, anarchists)

the ideologies that are more retarded, emotional, biased and ignorant, the ideologies filled with magical thinking and moralism, those are the ideologies that actually drive history foward (maoism, third worldism)

go jack off in a corner, we don't want you here

It is psychologically impossible for most people to live communally on a large scale, beyond their immediately relations. Therefore, communism outside of literal communes of a few dozen/hundred like-minded people is impossible. Socialism is the farthest you will get at the state level, and states are necessary for collective defence - your little commune can be annihilated in a single airstrike.

>>2911017
Stalin is both overrated and overhated. Brezhnev wasn't as bad was people said he was. Maoism is the new Trotskyism. Getting rid of the Gang of Four and ending the Cultural Revolution is the second best thing that happened to China. Anti-Communists actually have somewhat of a point when they say "Communism is against human nature."

Either that or a well-paid academic that gets to tell poor people to "check their settler privilege" from their gentrified neighborhood. It always comes down to class and most of Western leftoidism is the politics of the jilted petit-bourgeoisie. Most of these people are only "communist" not because they actually support communism but because they oppose their own countries. If they were Russians or Chinese, they'd be liberals. Tumblr is their past, BadEmpanda is their present and Van Jones is their inevitable future.

Most Lefties would cry Fascist if they came across someone with the exact same positions Marx holds in it lmao.

There are at least 20 more years before the international reserve army of labor runs out and capitalism really begins to collapse.

Dialectial materialism is the most advanced method for understanding reality but most Marxists believe in 18th century mechanical materialism and mistake it for dialectics. Heraclitus fragments should be mandatory reading.

>Decisions by Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez to recognize a Palestinian state, label Israel’s operation in Gaza as “the biggest genocide of the century,” and enact an embargo on Jerusalem’s arms imports are part of a wider effort by European leftists to shackle the Jewish state. Now, Manchester mayor and soon-to-be British Prime Minister Andy Burnham is calling for restrictions on British weapons sales to Israel.
>Eighty-two percent of Spaniards believe that Israel committed genocide in Gaza, 58 percent demand that arms sales to Israel be halted, and 60 percent oppose Israel’s military actions. Recent polls in Britain also show that half of the population believes that Israel committed genocide in Gaza and that the government should terminate arms sales to Jerusalem or impose sanctions on the Jewish state. Anti-Israel posters calling for the annihilation of the Jewish state punctuate leftist demonstrations and cultural events in Spain and Britain.
>To counter this leftish groundswell, Israel should begin outreach to conservative factions among regional pro-independence groups in Europe. In Catalonia, Silvia Orriols, of Aliança Catalana, has hoisted Israel’s flag in the regional parliament and argues that Israel’s victories also advance Catalonia’s interests. As mayor of Ripoll, Orriols took on the Salafist networks responsible for the 2017 Barcelona terrorist attack that killed 16 people.
>Orriols—whom the latest polls project to finish second while she leads the most popular pro-independence party—is the latest in a line of pro-Israel Catalans, including former regional president Jordi Pujol, the founding father of modern Catalan nationalism, to defend the Jewish state’s survival.
