A thread to share of what you think are your controversial opinons and takes, here mine:

- mass immigration is bad overall (I'm not against immigration per se, more like unfiltered immigration is quiet bad in my opinion)

-religion in general are bad, reactionary and backwater, and trying to "fuse" religion and left leaning politics are bound to fail because both doesn't mix well

-"liberal" eugenics is mostly right and should be mass adopted

-China is actually a trying a form of modernize socialism with end goal of becoming a full fledged socialist nation when they exhaust the market-capitalism form of relation in the country

-North Korea is a abomination of socialism

-Supporting Russia is stupid because Putin is nowhere near close to be a support of socialism and progressive politics and is just a form of support imperialist politics by because isn't western somehow is good, it's like supporting japanese imperialism back in the WW 2 era isn't western

  • emotional responses are a form of perception and to ignore/repress one's emotions is to willfully blind oneself to a potentially useful connection to reality

  • linux has been ruined by corporate influence and the gpl sucks and richard stallman is a gross pederast and freebsd is better

  • there is really no such thing as direct empirical observation because the traditional five senses are not direct connections to outer reality; they are passive and opaque sensory instruments and the brain does all of the work of converting exterior stimuli into electrochemical signals influenced by its own unique biases and the only reason two people can have a consensual perception of reality is because their brains are similar enough to generate a similar picture

  • nuclear power is safe and clean and a good idea and even the worst nuclear accidents are a drop in the bucket compared to the amount of toxic waste coal and natural gas release into the environment

  • the fundamental nature of life, matter, consciousness, and reality is chaotic, irreducible, inexorably interconnected, and ultimately unknowable. we can never fully understand anything and we can never be fully outside of anything. we can approach the truth but we can never actually reach it.

  • the obsession with health and fitness and beauty is stupid and vain and everyone is doomed to deteriorate and fall ill and die in a very short timeframe no matter what choices they make

  • regardless of the limitations of human knowledge, nihilism is still a copout and to give up on seeking knowledge and declare it a pointless endeavor because the journey has no clear destination is a selfish and infantile and entitled way of thinking

  • meritocracy doesn't produce qualified leaders, it produces egotistical billionaire psychopaths.

guns are not an equalizer for the common man for the same reason that a whip is not an equalizer for a slave. a gun is just a tool and like any tool it does not change power dynamics, it only amplifies existing power dynamics, i.e. makes existing killers better at killing. it doesn't matter how much you larp at a shooting range or how much time you spend playing tactical shooters, you are still not a ruthless killer, you are a regular sane ordinary person with a conscience and a rational aversion to violence and death. the most sophisticated powerful weaponry in the world is as useless in your hands as a bowling ball in the hands of a golfer.

Yeah, I'm sure he's really outraged. Anyway, to put it plainly: Tucker is controlled opposition ( almost too generous of a label but it's the best I can think of) and his role to obscure and re-frame reality as well as legitimize certain narratives. And to, in general, divert discontent into ideological cul-de-sac. he'll rebrand his rhetoric in whichever way he need to serve his interest, which is maintaining the US status as an empire, even if a regional one.

he even says in the video these clips are from that his real issue is that the empire is under poor stewardship. He doesn't critique the existence of a US empire, he normalizes it and frames it as in the interest of the American public. Any "leftist " sloganeering or talking points from him (and the power elite in general) or just in service of preserving their class interest. Which is an obvious fact to any run of the mill communist. Which makes the constant attempts of this brigade to sell the left on tucker all the more pointless.

when it comes to NATO-empire vs the rest of the bourgeois world, I choose the rest of the bourgeois world, because it is the lesser evil (Stalin, the greatest liberal of all time, and friend of FDR, the second greatest liberal of all time, said to do this)

When it comes to the USA (the crown Jewel of the NATO empire), and the question of Democrats vs Republicans, I still choose the Democrats as the lesser evil vs. the Republicans. Why? Obama softened the embargo on Cuba. His imperialist Iran deal was objectively a better status quo than Drumpf tearing it up. also Stalin said to do this. Comintern said vote democrat, so I vote democrat. I vote Platner, because even though he is zionist, he is lesser evil zionist.

You will say I am liberal. It is true. I am Liberal. Putin is liberal. I uphold Putin. The Ayatollah is liberal. I uphold the Ayatollah. Xi Jinping is liberal, I uphold Xi Jinping. Even the DPRK is liberal, they enshrine private property in article 24 of their constitution.

Liberalism is good. The axis of resistance is liberal. America is reactionary.

Uphold Multipolar-Liberalism! Death to America! Total Burger Death! Bring back Robespierre! Bring back Louverture! Bring back Dessalines!

The workers will still be divided by gender issues though. You need to empower women to abolish semi-feudal remnants. Kenyan Marxists discuss this. It is impossible to decolonize the world without abolishing the patriarchal relics that colonization relies on.

The porn industry is an oppressive system ran by the bourgiesie that corrupts the minds of everyone who watches it, it's usually exploitative in some nature, it desensitzes us to sex, it's just as addictive as cocaine, and it ruins human relationships. Almost any positive you can name for porn has ten negatives to go along.

The word you must learn is "coercion". The economic impetus to produce porn is coercive in nature.

Not a lot of revolutionary ideas coming out of the left . just talk about defending lost causes like the USSR etc we are looking backwards which is Undialectical .some new ideas coming out of leftypol but nothing groundbreaking . ACP RCP FRSO
DSA PSL have nothing new to say Losardo , cockshott and rock hill all talking about the past and dead ideas that can’t meet moment. They are brilliant people but it’s not new ideas just organizing the dead stuff . We can’t keep talking about history like a bunch of Reddit nerds where are the new ideas in theory and I don’t mean the dead end deleuze and anarchist crap of the 90s

Some reading for UK /Leftypol/

Some brutal home truths about Sultana - I dont buy the muh fed stuff and Corbyn's lot haven't behaved wonderfully either but what Sultana and the screeching sects and radlibs behind her have done for the chances of YP now is just unforgivable.

The fact is UK young radicals are just too smart and educated as well as aligned with trans people to go along with whatever reactionary nonsense fringe parties go ahead with.

Part of the whole deal of modernity is that we have machines that make sexual dimorphism a non factor in everything outside giving birth (which no one can afford anyway), so why not change your sex? The AK47 was designed with women and children in mind and it works perfectly when they use it. Same with personal computers and cars.

I can't say for sure (mostly due to not understanding the US media as well), but here are a few reasons:
  1. Semi-successful move to digital media (for example, the Daily Mail Online is the biggest English newspaper website… because it's full of clickbait ragebait, because that's what they've been doing for decades)
  2. Even when they're losing money, their owners keep funding them because it gives them political leverage. The Sun newspaper, for example, is losing money but is kept around because its endorsement is the most coveted at election time. (since 1992 there's been a meme that "it's the sun wot won it" after Labour suffered a surprise loss)
  3. Papers are openly partisan, with no requirement to give fair coverage and only a token requirement to correct mistakes. If The Daily Mail announce tomorrow that the government is going to give billions in welfare to transgender muslim asylum seekers as a front-page story, the only consequence will be that on friday they have to print a little rider in the back-page in size 8 font that says "correction: that's not true"
  4. The British political class is much smaller, close-knit, and incestuous than the US one. there basically aren't state-level power centers or journalism in the same way. Everything is centered on London* and people move between journalism and politics fairly freely (e.g. Boris Johnson was a Telegraph writer and the editor of The Spectator before he became London mayor). Newspaper ownership is also concentrated (for example, Rupert Murdoch owns both The Sun tabloid and The Times, the ostensibly-respectable newspaper of record.) and there's a strong culture of briefing the press informally about stories you want in the papers but don't want to publicly link yourself to.
  5. Papers have a strong sense of their collective interest and journalists have a strong sense of class solidarity with one another, driven by the above. Hence, even papers that are ostensibly partisan in a liberal/left way like The Guardian came out against Corbyn and press regulation. since they all speak with one voice, they're much harder to ignore.
  6. They set the agenda for more trusted news sources, like the BBC (and with it, other TV news like ITV, Sky, etc.). TV news isn't supposed to be partisan the way it is in the US,

YP news:
  1. the holyrood election deadline is at 4pm today, they're not standing.
  2. a member of the scottish committee resigned claiming it was just a mechanism to attack the UK wide party, only for it to turn out they were being paid £500/day by the party for "administrative services"
  3. the welsh representative on the CEC is subject to a recall petition for zionism (picrel), although the party itself doesn't actually have a functioning recall mechanism. but remember: YP are supposed to be more committed anti-imperialists than the greens!
  4. a bit dated but https://yourpartyvoices.substack.com/p/where-have-the-many-gone-whats-that is a funny read. it has nothing to address the obviously-impending failure to run candidates, but it reads like it's half AI generated and there's a bit where they attack the scottish greens for factionalism in the tone you'd expect from the current labour government even though the greens are positioned to gain seats in the upcoming holyrood elections and were officially in government as recently as 2024 thanks to a coalition with the SNP, an outcome well beyond the capacity of a party that couldn't even pick candidates and get nomination papers in on time. one of their later lines really solidifies that they've imported Labour's attitude to Scotland
>We joined a U.K. party let’s plan our future together.

tl;dr it's all going REALLY well, except the stuff that's Zarah Sultana's fault.
