Reading Lenin's works in order is one of the most depressing things. By 1922 he basically admitted that the Soviet Union's state apparatus is a "bourgeois and tsarist hotch-potch" and he previously described it as a state taken away (not smashed) from tsarism and "slightly anointed with Soviet oil."

<It is said that a united apparatus was needed. Where did that assurance come from? Did it not come from that same Russian apparatus which, as I pointed out in one of the preceding sections of my diary, we took over from tsarism and slightly anointed with Soviet oil?

<There is no doubt that that measure should have been delayed somewhat until we could say that we vouched for our apparatus as our own. But now, we must, in all conscience, admit the contrary; the apparatus we call ours is, in fact, still quite alien to us; it is a bourgeois and tsarist hotch-potch and there has been no possibility of getting rid of it in the course of the past five years without the help of other countries and because we have been "busy" most of the time with military engagements and the fight against famine.

Starting this thread and hopefully it stays a general. There's no thread dedicated to the EVROPA and what happens here.

everal European countries are currently reevaluating their military conscription policies, with some, like Croatia, having recently decided to reinstate it. Regarding pension reforms, the debate is also active, with France serving as a prominent example where a recent reform is facing political opposition and proposed suspension.
>Croatia.
Parliament voted in October 2025 to bring back a 2-month compulsory service starting in 2026.
>Germany
The government is moving toward a "new military service" model starting with a mandatory digital questionnaire for young men from 2027, with the potential for mandatory conscription if needed.
>Denmark
Expanding to include women from July 2025. Service is selected via a lottery system from the pool of eligible 18-year-olds.
>Latvia
Reintroduced in 2023. All men between 18 and 27 must serve for 11 months.

Concurrently, pension reform is trying to be pushed in Belgium, France, Bosnia and Slovenia (that I know of). All want to raise the retirement age and lower pensions low term.

Serbia has a rebellion going on for almost a year.

Idea: European Citizen Initiative for EU wide Marcora-like worker-buyout law


"Demand the full suspension of the EU-Israel Association Agreement in view of Israel’s violations of human rights"
>"Objectives"
According to the European Commission, the State of Israel is responsible for an unprecedented level of killing and injury of civilians, a large-scale displacement of population and the systematic destruction of hospitals and medical facilities in Gaza. [1] Israel also implemented a blockade of humanitarian aid that could amount to starvation as a method of war. Israel is in breach of multiple rules and obligations under international law and fails to prevent the crime of genocide as ordered by the International Court of Justice.[2]

Yet the European Union has still not suspended its association agreement with Israel, which is the cornerstone of EU-Israel bilateral trade, economic, and political cooperation.

EU citizens cannot tolerate that the EU maintains an agreement that contributes to legitimize and finance a State that commits crimes against humanity and war crimes.

Therefore, we call on the Commission to put forward the proposal to the Council for the full suspension of the EU-Israel Association Agreement.

Pol pot was trained by Maoist in China. Results were same.

If we're talking as purely heads of state and not as revolutionaries:
Lenin died too early to really tell, so we can only speculate, but I think he would've been great.
Stalin was great, didn't understand dialectics but no major fuckups that were solely his fault.
Mao was great but went full retard in his later years, mars an otherwise great record. Was right to antagonize the now-revisionist USSR tho.

I don't know much about Castro, he was alright I guess, no fuckups, but not the same caliber as the aforementioned either.

There is absolutely nowhere near enough lawyer hate in leftist circles. Why is that?
Although soldiers and the army are ultimate tyrants and indisputably worse….But cops and lawyers are the same thing and equally despicable and honestly the latter is more likely to be purely soulless evil people. There can never be talk of anti-establishment or system reform without shaming the law profession. enforcers of an unjust murderous order and frontline agents of class oppression, Lawyers even have a more direct relationship with enabling and always defending blood-sucking corporations and predatory ruling class than the hated militarist since lawyers REPRESENT them in court and legitimise their crimes while the militarists simply prevent what seems to them chaos and rioting. Lawyers are also much richer on average than wretched soldiers or police since their profession has a stronger incentive for being corrupt and immoral.
>B-but most lawyers just deal with common legal cases and petty crime or whatever
Same thing could be said about the police or even the infamous intelligence agencies.

This is not about vindicating the police or army or intelligence agents or any other porky tools, But an honest question: Why isn't there more lawyer hate in leftist circles?

Then it's just radicalism for the sake of radicalism, a wreckerist way of thinking. A true radical objective should be to not be radical, and as suc, he should base himself on the popular sentiment, base yourself on lawyer hatred to show that it's a larger symptom of class warfare, same with things like Nepo babies.

Senegal's oil production exceeds initial projections in 2025

Senegal's oil production reached 36.1 million barrels of crude oil in 2025, exceeding the initial targets set for the year, the Ministry of Energy, Petroleum and Mines announced on Wednesday.

How Djibouti Became a Battleground Between the UAE and National Sovereignty

In a series of unusually candid remarks, Guelleh leveled direct accusations at Abu Dhabi, claiming it is seeking to assert control over his country’s resources through financial leverage and strategic contracts, describing the Emirati approach as a form of “disguised colonialism.”

The dispute over the Doraleh port, Guelleh suggested, is merely one piece of a far broader project — a campaign aimed at dominating ports and maritime corridors across East Africa.

I like reading this guy stuff for updates about Iran currently. Yes, he's a liberal. Yes, he's a Democrat voter. Yes he has a lot of normie takes but also he's in iranian-american who despises monarchists and he hates the Shah so he says some interesting stuff about the ones who keep shilling the shah

https://www.firstpost.com/world/trump-asked-us-special-forces-to-plan-greenland-invasion-faces-resistance-from-military-generals-report-13967597.html

Trump asked US special forces to plan Greenland invasion, faces resistance from military generals: Report
<Trump has reportedly asked special forces to prepare contingency plans for a possible invasion of Greenland, a move that has faced resistance from senior US military officials over legal and political concerns.

>US President Donald Trump has reportedly asked senior special forces commanders to begin preparing contingency plans for a possible invasion of Greenland, the Daily Mail reported on Sunday. The proposal has triggered strong resistance within the US military, with senior officials questioning both its legality and political feasibility.


>According to the report, Trump directed the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) to draft an invasion plan. However, the Joint Chiefs of Staff have pushed back, arguing that any such operation would be unlawful and lack congressional approval.


US generals push back

<“The generals think Trump’s Greenland plan is crazy and illegal,” a diplomatic source told the Mail. “They are trying to deflect him with other major military operations. They say it’s like dealing with a five-year-old.”


>Sources said senior military officials have attempted to divert Trump’s attention by proposing less controversial actions, including intercepting Russian “ghost ships” — a covert fleet used by Moscow to evade Western sanctions — or even suggesting a strike on Iran.

>This is like saying a gang is fundamentally different if a mob boss gives some bonuses to his crew instead of just killing them if they disobey.
That is a pretty big difference actually since a gang boss that earns the respect and support of his crew is going to have a much better chance of keeping it together and building a successful criminal enterprise than one who behaves like a cartoon villain. If the US goes ahead with forced annexation of Greenland it would fundamentally change the balance of power and could dissolve the transatlantic alliance. People need to understand the difference between hegemony and naked force, because it does matter for the strength and structural integrity of a geopolitical coalition and thus world history.

what if US and israel fucked off from the middle east and the rest of the third world, let their economies develop naturally into capitalist states and then did free trade with them?

the only logical argument against capitalism is imperialism, capitalism by itself makes sense.

>can there be capitalism without imperialism?
Obviously. The vast majority of capitalist states currently aren't even near being imperialist.

>>2638950
>For a little bit, yea, but eventually it must turn to imperialism.
Delulu. The imperialist bloc does not like to tolerate newcomers to the game and will try to sabotage every attempt. See post-ww2 Japanese history, for example. Very few make it, and usually because they are strategic allies in a region for the imperialists so they get tolerated to a degree.

Threads like these convinced me 95% of leftypol posters haven't even read The Book or understand 20-21st century history.

For them capitalism is "bad" and imperialism is "big bad" and the moral law is of necessary development of one into another.

Disgusting, ignorant, loud mouthed idiots.

>>2638928
It depends. China has never been imperialist. So either China is not capitalist since its ruled by communists or "capitalism" can exist without imperialism.

>why doesn't capitalism just not do imperialism? Are they stupid? Why give the people of the world reasons to hate the system? Why not just pay them well and not do wars?
Jesus fucking christ, my man, please for the love of any god that has forsaken up, read Das Kapital. Economic systems producing their own contradictions by their very nature, and the resulting instability and inability to exist in stasis, is THE core tenant of Marxism. Arguably, that is the very very very core of Marxism, it's very essence. Everything follows from there.

>>2640901
>Economic systems producing their own contradictions by their very nature,

but what if they didn't tho, you can see the contradictions coming and prevent them.

>>2640923
>but what if they didn't tho, you can see the contradictions coming and prevent them.
>Just prevent monopoly formation bro. Who should prevent it? Oh the government run by the monopolies
>Just prevent a falling rate of profit caused by increased mechanization even though it's a prisoners dilemma in which any party that doesn't obey the stagnation law becomes richer and more powerfull
>Just don't saturate the market bro even though being the first to produce more makes you richer and more powerfull bro
>Just don't do imperialism bro even though it's super profitable for the first clique of capitalists to do so and also they can then bully the others that didn't
>Just don't pay bad wages even though it's profitable and falling rates of profit as said above makes this the only way not to lose profitability
Read the fucking book my guy. "Just prevent contradictions by seeing them coming" isn't something that has ever happened. If you believe such nonsense then do not even post on this website or call yourself a communist again.
