What's the deal with the rise in diet quacks?

There's always some new batshit fad diet being promoted by quacks that's weirder than the last. This one really took me by surprise, though. On what planet are these unhealthy meals?

>>2808216
Do you suffer from a form of blindness that prevents you from seeing legumes and vegetables?

I think the OP pic is covert racism, because those are oriental dishes.

Because the wellness industry is worth 7 trillion dollars worldwide (that's more than big pharma) and these fad diets and health advice you see from online grifters are the social media representatives of it. They're all trying to sell you something or at the very least compete in the attention economy by telling you your mom lied about eating your greens and actually you should just eat only meat and other animal products so you don't turn into a soyboy or whatever. People who actually give decent science-backed advice when it comes to eating and drinking healthy don't do well on social media, because the viewer doesn't feel like they are gaining some sort of special secret knowledge. Real nutrition is just too fucking boring and established to compete.

I kind of hate to say this, but it is just honkoids being honkoids. White food cultue MUST be destroyed, there is nothing worth saving.

The idea that carbs and sugar, some of the most easy food to assimilate and gives a great deal of energy is "poison" is pure ketatotard cope. And i am not a peater or anything, i eat decent amount of animal products, i just avoid PUFAs.
All ketotard are red like alcoholics and/or balding, they look like Joe Rogan, they are inflamed. This is because they disrespected the dharma by harming innocent animals more than what's reasoanable so they could fuel their shitty unhealthy andrew tate diet.
That being said subcontinentals and MENA eating 2 kilos of carbs every meal is also terrible and is turning them into bee hives. If you were to lit 100 hindus on fire it would smell like caramel.

The entire Scottish committee just resigned and are now saying they'll start their own party because they've been ignored by the Your Party CEC (for those just tuning in: Your Party aren't standing for the holyrood election because the UK party didn't care enough to register candidates)

NTA but thats the effect the electoral neolib left was supposed to have, its existence prevents anything else outside of it from growing
in this sense it has been a complete success and not a failure
>but that doesn't mean it should be entirely written off
I agree but all needs to be subordinate to class from now on, that needs to be the new "litmus test" for the left
>unfortunately, here we return to the disposition of the average leftist: agreeable, open minded, and neurotic is not a good mindset for knuckling down to boring practical organizational work even before you throw in the need for conscientiousness/rule following, which is generally a trait more common on the right.
I wonder how the bolsheviks did it then? Maybe this framework of what defines leftists is self-defeating by design?
like, when you say stuff like this
>fundamentally, people's political alignment is downstream of their personality and disposition.
you have already given up to a class based understanding and delimination of politics and what being a leftist is or could be, it makes you sound like your mind has already been completely hijacked by individualist bourgeois ideology and therapy talk

There are plenty of freaks with their own little non-"neoliberal" non-left parties (indeed, most British "communists") qualify. They fail because they can't appeal to anyone under 60 or anyone who doesn't want to join a literal cult, not because the big bad Green party is bedblocking.

You do not have the power to subordinate anything to class. As Your Party clearly shows, the ultimate litmus test is "are you remotely capable of organising anything whatsoever?", only once that is answered can one try to organise on a class-first basis. (One would however require a useful understanding of class. The average class-first leftist really doesn't want to admit that most pensioners are something other than proles…)

The Bolsheviks existed in vastly different circumstances. You are making the Trotskyist newspaper argument (it worked in 1917!!) and you are confusing my empirical analysis (disposition correlates to political views much more strongly than class) with a normative one ("and that's a good thing")

But let's look at the Bolsheviks with a broad brush: they were surely the most progressive wing of their class, but did not have it's universal backing. There were almost certainly differences in disposition between Bolsheviks and SRs, and between left and right SRs, let alone other groups. Some misguided proletarians fought for the white army! My advice, if you wish, is that the Bolsheviks should not alienate natural Bolsheviks in a doomed attempt to win over the black hundreds. They should instead focus on being better Bolsheviks.
(And this is what the Bolsheviks would do! They could and would eject proletarian members who were insufferable dickheads with reactionary sympathies!)

Does anyone know how well Your Party and affiliated independents did at the local elections? I vaguely understand they underperformed, but nobody seems to give specifics unless you look at every local result in the entire country one by one.

I don't know about you guys, but if you ask me the failure of the Socialist movement to back the Allies for the first 2 years of WWII is an absolutely ENORMOUS fumble that has hanged over our heads for nearly a century. It is the constant aching pain in Socialist anti-interventionist "NO WAR BUT CLASS WAR" advocacy. "You said the same thing in 1939!" is the inevitable response from Liberals whenever we oppose the latest imperialist war. Let's face it: the Liberals (for once) completely fucking owned us during the span of time from the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact's silencing of the "Crush the Nazi menace" Left up until Operation Barbarossa. Communists were trying to do entryism in the fucking AMERICA FIRST COMMITTEE. Absolutely humiliating. And it must have felt so reasonable, given that Socialists were 100% right about WWI.

So, I ask you: why did we fuck that up? Is the cause of that fuck-up perhaps still around and waiting to push the Left into neutrality on yet another extremely cut and dry war coming in the future? Did any Socialists get it right back then? What is the solution?

Tbh I don't really hear this argument too often from libs when it comes to opposing current wars. It's not as if liberal states didn't have their own appeasement phase in the 1930s, during which time communists were leading the charge against Fascism in Germany, Spain, and elsewhere. I'd say that most people are more likely to invoke Chamberlain as the face of appeasement rather than Molotov-Ribbentrop, but that's just my experience. Molotov-Ribbentrop is more commonly invoked by liberals to prove the supposed ideological affinity between communism and fascism, not so much to attack communists as appeasers.
>So, I ask you: why did we fuck that up?
  1. Prior to Operation Barbarossa, WW2 (at least in Europe and arguably even the Pacific) was legitimately an inter-imperialist war, and without any knowledge of the full scope of Nazi imperial ambitions or genocidal intent, it would have been pretty easy to argue that they were no greater threat to socialism or the worker's movement than the Western Allies. This would have especially been the case after Molotov-Ribbentrop was signed and it looked like the Nazis were shelving their anti-communist crusade to focus on rival imperialist powers. These views were clearly mistaken, but I think it's easy to see how reasonable people in that context could have held them, especially since the clearest parallel was WW1 where communists rightly did not take a side.

  2. The Comintern was pretty clearly an instrument of Soviet foreign policy. While there is an obvious logic to this (the loss of the USSR at that time would have been a far bigger disaster for socialism than any downsides that came from subordination of the International to Moscow), it still led to some pretty obvious mistakes. Communist parties abroad flip flopped in ways that made it clear they were more concerned with Soviet geopolitical interests than class struggle in their own countries, which hurt their legitimacy. This led to some completely ridiculous orders coming out of Moscow, like telling communists in 1939-1940 not to resist German occupation in countries like Belgium or Yugoslavia because the Soviets didn't want to dama

<Hey guys it's me, Adolf Hitler. I'm going to rape and kill everybody and commit genocide and stuff. Listen closely, because this quote will be very famous: "If the international Jewish financiers in and outside Europe should succeed in plunging the nations once more into a world war, then the result will not be the Bolshevization of the earth, and thus the victory of Jewry, but the annihilation of the Jewish race in Europe!".

>>2807698
>It could not have possibly been that difficult to know what he was going to do, right?
Prior to Hitler both Germany and most other capitalist powers had committed similar atrocities, on similar scales, using similar means. This is after the Namibian genocide, the Belgian Congo, Manifest Destiny, multiple famines in British India, and centuries of conquest, slaughter, and theft by the very powers which were now opposing Germany and posturing as defenders of humanity and civilization. Belgium alone killed around 10 million people in the Congo, which is comparable to the number the Nazis killed in the camps. The concentration camp, eugenics, and racial hygiene laws had all already been implemented in America, the British Empire, and elsewhere. Brutal white terrors aiming at the eradication of socialism had already been unleashed in numerous countries, often with the support or participation of those same Western powers. The Nazis weren't really all that special when it came to this. The only two things that really set them apart were systematization of the killing (i.e. it was far more meticulously organized, planned, executed, and documented than what preceded it), as well as the fact that Europeans rather than colonized people were the primary victims. In fact were it not for the invasion of the USSR, you could potentially argue that the Nazis were no more reactionary than Britain, France, and America.

>why is it that even though the USSR knew war with Nazi Germany was inevitable they still ordered other Communist movements to weaken the allies?

If it makes you feel better the USSR had been helping the germans violate the treaty of Versailles since like 1925.

Get a MilkV Jupiter, make a 3D printed PCIe slot for a PCBway printed circuit board, wire LiteX and ECP5 NAND and NOR programmed for memory storage, then add PETG, ABS, ASA, Nylon, or polycarbonate from a 3D printer (FreeCAD, KiCAD or Fusion 360), phosphor bronze or beryllium copper contacts and gold plating (optional but ideal). Print the insulating body. Insert stamped contacts, spring contacts, or pogo-pin style terminals, and solder wires or PCB traces to the contacts.

Then, connect it to your MilkV Jupiter as an alternative to SD/eMMC/NVMe. Do this for your other two or three MilkV Mars nodes as well, and do this for your router Jupiter board (will discuss later). Then snap the Jupiter/Mars into a development board to wipe the firmware on the DDR4 controllers and install UberDDR3 or custom DDR3 (PhD-level project), which is open source. Then take a Ovrdrive USB flash drive and flash Gentoo Linux onto the MilkV Jupiter board, take another Ovrdrive USB flash drive for decryption of desktops using KeePassXC (will need LUKS for full disc encryption). Then connect a Modos paper display, a Keyboardio model 01 keyboard, Ploopy mouse, passive speakers and a Logitech Quickcam Express 1999 web cam. Then when setting up Gentoo, refuse any and all proprietary packages, block any proprietary packages in nftables, also harden the kernel and secure the bootchain. Then run Sway from Wayland over it. Then make sure you got nftables installed, as well as kvm/qemu, firejail, fail2ban, PyShark, a custom SOCKS5 proxy written in Python w/ X25519, Poly1305, ChaCha20 and Kyber for cryptographic post-quantum protection, w/ libsodium, PQClean and OpenSSL integration, as well as using GNU Icecat, ELinks or GNUNet/GNUNet CADET/GNUNet FS (File Sharing)/gnunet-vpn for web browsing services.

TL;DR US backed colour revolution organizers got sloppy and accidentally leaked that they illegally shared the personal information of 3 million Canadians with Americans.

Jason Kenny is the former leader of the leader of the United Conservative Party of Alberta. His personal information was leaked by the American collaborators. He is now receiving threats. The information was leaked on the US hosted websites of the Centurion Project and the Republican Party of Alberta. If an anon could point us in the direction of this database, we would appreciate it. If any of Alberta's billionaires were on the list, their information would also be very much appreciated. Many of Alberta's billionaires are climate change denying oil barons, so they deserve this more than anyone.

A general to compile all news, articles, essays and info related to the Greater Middle East-North Africa region.

Creating this general in an effort to centralize all the info that currently gets posted to 5 different threads concerning conflicts and developments in the MENA region. Seeing how slow they generally are and at risk of getting bumped off besides the Palestine thread and that it’s likely people interested in Yemen, Syria, Iran, Sudan and Palestine are likely also interested in news and info from across the region I think it would be useful to post everything in one place.

This will be the inaugural edition to see how it goes. Welcome!

How Iranian monarchists have targeted anti-war activists

“We’re going to find you, we’re going to rape you, we’re going to kill you.”
This is just one of hundreds of messages that Arjang Alidai, an Iranian-British engineer based in the UK, has received from monarchist compatriots in recent months.
Something more serious then happened. On 22 April, Mohammed Reza, an Iranian father of two demonstrating against the war on Iran outside Downing Street was stabbed multiple times by a counter-protester of Iranian origin.
Iranian monarchists identify as secular and nationalist. They use language and imagery associated with Iran’s pre-Islamic past, including describing themselves as “Children of Cyrus”, referring to Cyrus the Great, the 6th-century BCE founder of the Persian Achaemenid Empire.
Recent videos even show monarchists gathering in British cities clad in black and carrying flags of the Savak, the notorious secret police force under the shah, which imprisoned and tortured political opponents.
The murder in Canada of Masood Masjoodi, an Iranian-Canadian university professor who was a critic of the Iranian government and Reza Pahlavi, highlights how far the monarchist movement can go.
Two individuals, who were known to Masjoodi and who espoused the monarchist cause, have been charged with his murder.
“There’s talk of lists being drawn up in the community,” Mohyeddin tells MEE, referring to people deemed to be legitimate targets for the movement.

System of sexual torture targeting Palestinians exposed in new report

Israeli detention facilities have been transformed into “spaces isolated from oversight, akin to legal and physical ‘black holes,’” where torture, including rape, genital mutilation and other sexual violence, is carried out systematically and with impunity.
Survivor testimonies describe extreme forms of abuse.
Wajdi, 43, recalled that “during interrogation, they tied me naked to a metal bed, and one of the soldiers asked me how many Israeli women I had raped in Israel.”
“I denied that I had even entered Israel. Then a soldier raped me,” Wajdi said. “I felt severe pain in my anus and screamed, but every time I screamed, I was beaten.”
“The soldier left after ejaculating inside me. I was left in a humiliating position. I wished for death. I was bleeding,” Wajdi said.
“Later, they untied me and brought a dog, which also raped me.”
Multiple survivors also reported being raped by dogs, or witnessing other detainees being assaulted in this way, describing the animals as appearing to be trained for that purpose and used deliberately by soldiers in detention settings.
“One of the dogs then raped me, penetrated my anus in a trained manner while I was being beaten,” Amir, 35, said.
In a separate testimony, A.S., also aged 35, recalled that his captors “forced me to lie down, and a dog climbed on top of me and tried to insert its penis into me. At first, I did not understand what was happening, but then I realized that I was being raped.”

UAE’s ruling royal family benefits from more than €71m in EU farming subsidies

The United Arab Emirates’ ruling royal family is benefiting from tens of millions in EU subsidies to grow crops destined for the Gulf, it can be revealed.

A cross-border investigation by DeSmog and shared with the Guardian found subsidiaries controlled by the Al Nahyans collected more than €71m (£61m) in six years for farmland it controls in Romania, Italy and Spain.

the funniest thing about "anti-revisionism" vs "revisionism" is that it is not something Marx ever mentioned, because he would never imagine himself as the static, unchanging root of a globe-spanning political project called "Marxism" with various branches like "Marxism-Leninism", "Marxism-Leninism-Mao-Zedong-Thought", "Marxism-Leninism-Maoism", "Stalinism, "Hoxhaism" and so on . Instead, Marx revised himself several times during his own life, moving from a framework rooted in alienation and species-being, to a framework rooted in (what would later be called) historical and dialectical materialism. Engels famously said that he and Marx's system was a method, not a dogma, and Kim-Il-Sung repeated this when innovating Juche, as did Deng Xiaoping when innovating "Socialism with Chinese Characteristics", make of that what you will. So if innovation is allowed and Marxism is a method, and not a dogma, why all the controversy about "revisionism?" If Marxism is meant to be applied to unique spatio-temporal conditions which outsiders, even sympathetic outsiders, usually fail to understand, why do outsiders always look for "revisionism" to condemn? Why not just accept that we are all striving not for "[insert the name of Great Men]" -ism but Communism and that our paths towards Communism are evolutionarily convergent from our different spatiotemporal standpoints rather than divergent from some imagined "anti-revisionist" standpoint? Am I being revisionist right now?

Let's look at how Marxists.org defines revisionism (you may disagree with each other on this very point):

> Revisionism

>A fundamental alteration of a theory, essentially usurping (though taking elements of) the former theory and replacing it with a new one. While the attributes of a theory are subject to change in accordance to changing historic circumstances, changing the fundamental basis of that theory is to nullify it in place of a new one.

Was Marx "Revisionist" when he revised himself? Who has the authority to decide the criteria for what is "subject to change in accordance to changing historic circumstances" and what is not?

I think the encouraging results of an even half-successful practice matter more than the purity of theory, personally.

Upkeep and directives are different jobs from all the prior tasks of manual labor, with different requirements and "specialization". The dispossessed laborers may or may not be able to get to be involved in the managerial roles of machinery lacking qualifications, or the managerial role of machinery being solely given to the bourgeois. It implies leading workers from different fields into solely becoming technical experts for the maintenance of machinery. That would mean a seamless transition into having a hold of the mop.

>>2808088 (Me)
And morons keep straw-manning "automation isn't automation because the machines aren't autonomous", that is not what automation is implied for, it is dishonest language games. We all know damn well what automation means, no one is implying "it will work for itself without interference" you subhuman retards.

>>2808088
Most don't accept it because they believe "managerial duty" i.e. oversight is a legitimate job, when in the capitalist mode of production it can only be the task of the bourgeois and petite-bourgeois who have control over the resources.

In the advent of a sweatshop business firing its workers to have machines take their task in production, those sweatshop workers will not be the ones managing the machines and they likely won't even be the ones doing maintenance. They will likely have to find employment somewhere else.
Who will manage the machines then? Likely either higher-ups or qualified employees which come from a more prestigious background. Technical workers who perform maintenance also require specialization in the field due to the division of labor.

>>2808092
I have much to say about this, but it is completely pointless trying to express it over the internet.
Its best to wait and observe, write up to date analysis of production and the economic relations of this time.
