What's your take on the coming elections in the demon colony?
I hope that Netanyahu and the extreme right win, it will tarnish Israel's reputation even further + they are very incompetent. If the "moderate" liberal Zionists win it's fucking over. They will present themselves as more sane but will continue dispossessing Palestinians under a nice guy mask.

Basically I see Netanyahu as the Shabtai Tzvi of Zionism.

It is plainly shocking that the ongoing protest movement in Albania (dubbed the Flamingo Revolution) is barely being mentioned here!

The movement started as a protest against the proposed luxury tourism developments in Portonovo, Sazan Island, Zvërnec, and Baks-Rrjoll, it was supported by Jared Kushner (trump's son-in-law). The developments would've caused ecological damage to the coastal regions, and if you don't know Albania has a long history of its enviroment being destroyed.

The protest has expanded to include protests against western influnce and the social democrat NATO government in general, with several government buildings being burned down and even a storming of the parilament and a fire lit inside of it earlier this month.


The PKSH (Communist Party of Albania) has also voiced it's support of the protests and have seen a jump in membership from students during the crisis, the party has usually been filled with boomers and low electorial gains but its changing.

Fish and chips is, without a doubt, the ultimate proletarian dish. It has everything you would want to have in a meal (mainly fish and chips). It makes you feel full after eating it. And most importantly it tastes delicious. No wonder the bourgeois institutions are trying to destroy this gift from the proletarian gods by claiming that "overfishing" is a thing. Do your proletarian duty by enjoying fish and chips at least twice a week.

Flávio Bolsonaro calls himself the ‘leader of Brazil’ after fleeing to Miami
After landing on a private jet with his family in Miami, Florida, on Wednesday morning, the far-right senator published the claim in a letter – even though his own party has recognised the legitimate victory of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, as have all of Brazil’s institutions, and international observers who monitored and endorsed the vote.

IMF strikes preliminary Argentina deal as market return dims
Still, a key ingredient to Argentina repaying its IMF programme in the long term is its return to international capital markets, which Milei has postponed in hopes of securing lower interest rates. Argentina’s sovereign bonds currently feature yields over 12 percent, which effectively close the window on a return in the near term.

Colombia’s opposition announces criminal charges against De la Espriella over ties to drug traffickers
The president and his appointees are part of a revolving door system of people who, before being appointed to government positions, defended the interests of drug traffickers and paramilitaries associated with De la Espriella and his businesses, according to the opposition leader. For example, the president put Diana Patrica Bravo, a former prosecutor and partner at his law firm De la Espriella Lawyers, in charge of The Society of Special Assets (SAE), which controls assets that were seized from drug traffickers.

Senate approves income-based payment plans for utility bills
The Puerto Rico Senate has approved legislation that would establish income-based payment plans for residential customers struggling to pay overdue water and electricity bills, allowing eligible households to repay debt through monthly installments capped at no more than 5% of family income. The measure, House Bill 133, known as the Essential Services Continuity Payment Plans Act, is part of a broader package of legislation approved by the upper chamber addressing utility services, digital safety, agriculture, government spending and tax matters.

13 European Communist Youth organizations hail student protests, back dockworkers' strike
“The Communist Youth organizations signing this statement salute the tremendous mobilizations of school students, university students and young workers that have taken place in France, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Greece, Albania and other European countries in recent weeks, fighting for education, work and a life that meets the possibilities offered by the 21st century. The great waves of young people surging through the streets of Europe are creating images of optimism and hope. They demonstrate that the organized people, through their struggle, can leave their mark on developments. We denounce the repression unleashed by the bourgeois states, resulting in injuries to demonstrators, including school students, thousands of arrests, and attempts to slander these struggles. It is once again confirmed that anti-people policies are necessarily accompanied by repression, alongside efforts to manipulate the people. We, the young communists, stand on the front line of this struggle, highlighting that the causes driving young people into the streets are common. They lie in the EU of monopolies and war preparations, which allocates billions to military armaments and to boosting the profits of business groups in their competition with rival centers, while treating the needs of the people and youth as ‘wasteful’ and a ‘cost’. They lie in the system of exploitation and class barriers, which sacrifices the needs of workers, young people and working-class families every day in the interests of a handful of capitalists."

Why is it that the surviving members of the George W. Bush administration who acted as the architects of the Iraq War have never faced any legal penalties for what they did?

The 2003 US invasion of Iraq was arguably one of the worst human rights atrocities of the past 50 years. Over 1 million Iraqi CIVILIANS were killed. If that's not a low key genocide similar to Gaza I don't know what is. But it's even worse knowing this war was based entirely on a gigantic lie (a "noble lie" if you will) by some of the slimiest, most diabolical villains ever known to American politics. Yes, Dick Cheney, Colin Powell and Donald Rumsfeld are dead and rotting in hell. But George W Bush, Paul Wolfowitz and Douglas Feith are still alive. Neocons Bill Kristol, Robert Kagan and John Bolton who were the top dogs in PNAC (Project for a New American Century), which called for massive military spending and preemptive attacks (also a "New Pearl Harbor" which conveniently happened on 9/11) are also still alive. WHY HAVEN'T ANY OF THEM EVER BEEN CHARGED AS WAR CRIMINALS?????

The Straussian cabal is very real and still holds loads of ideological power within American politics. Many Neocons from the Bush II era have now since become Democrats and publicly supported Kamala Harris over Trump on the basis Trump wasn't Neocon enough. These people have names and addresses and have to face some kind of legal penalties so the world can finally have closure and the Neocon war criminals can finally reap what they sowed.

Three years after October 7th this very difficult question needs to be asked:

Materially speaking, what can the American left — or any country’s left — do to actually “support” Palestine?

I’ve been an activist for Palestine solidarity since 2008. I’ve seen this movement change drastically during this time. Basically, 18 years ago you could support a two-state solution on the ‘67 border just fine without scrutiny. Now, post-Gaza genocide, you’re considered a “Zio” or “normalizer” if you support anything other than a full-blown Algeria scenario whereby every single Israeli Jew is deported or forced to flee. But let’s be honest: even if this is what we wanted, the American (or overall western) left has no ability to make this happen. It’s as stupid as claiming you’re a sellout unless you support a gigantic communist uprising happening tomorrow. Given that what we mentally support means nothing unless we can do material support, what’s the fucking point?

Oh but it’s a MORAL LITMUS TEST! — so fucking what? Even if we wanted to weed out the “immoral” people from our movement we still have no ability to carry out the results we want to see.

So where does that leave us? What should the left be doing for Palestine that it already hasn’t been doing for the past 20 years? We’ve done mass protests, boycotts, pressuring politicians, attempting to blockade weapons shipments, etc. Some people like Elias Rodriguez even used political violence. And guess what? Nothing happened in terms of the Palestinians winning. Israel’s reputation is in the shitter, but why hasn’t that translated into a Palestinian victory? How much longer do we have to wait for Israel to collapse, and if that happens on what basis would an “Algeria” scenario emerge?

Maybe I’m wrong but I really want to know what it actually means to “support Palestine” now.

Hi there FBI.

germoid mostly drink the kool aid on israel but even in yurop countries you saw a huge shift towards a more anti-israel position, you can now say things that were unthinkable even some years ago. The germoid state vehemtly fights against this new norm however as free speech isnt taken as seriously as in the US, so it has been a much slower shift. However, I think the majority position, atleast in my country, is apathy, lots of my family has been basically unaware of whats happening but that might have also something to do with the fact theyre catholic.

First off you're a fed
second off wouldn't that just encourage more sympathy for israel. I could see trump being like "the radical leftists are killing innocent people, I am going to send in more funding to israel to combat these antifa maniacs"



 

I'm a mere observer and don't have much of a background:

Can anyone explain to me why is south American just filled to the brim with reactionaries that their left has to work overtime just not to let a fascist get elected?
Why are they on permanent crisis/polarized mode?
Bonus if answers are from SA.

I've been trying to read more of Marx lately and I've found it difficult to pinpoint exactly what his "materialist conception of history" means. I understand the base/superstructure logic but I don't really understand his broader logic of history.

From what I've gathered in the German Ideology, Marx believes that humans have needs, that they perform labour to satisfy those needs, and that because they are social animals, they enter certain arrangements in order to organize their labor. My reading of historical change was originally simply thatthis arrangement can become irrational for certain classes, and that they as such enter conflict over the control of production. For example, the feudal system was upheld by the nobility, but this arrangement wasn't rational for the rising bourgeoisie, and they as such created a period of conflict over the maintenance of feudal traditions.

However, in the preface of "A Contribution to the Critique of Political Economy", Marx establishes that historical changes occur when :
>"At a certain stage of development, the material productive forces of society come into conflict with the existing relations of production or – this merely expresses the same thing in legal terms – with the property relations within the framework of which they have operated hitherto. From forms of development of the productive forces these relations turn into their fetters. Then begins an era of social revolution"

This imo contradicts my reading. It's not classes which fight over control of production, because they don't want to change the system/recognize themselves in the system, it's that new technological developments are "hindered" by existing relations of production.
Any thoughts ?

>it's that new technological developments are "hindered" by existing relations of production.
Yes – Marx for instance sees that capitalism develops from the profit motive, up to a point, but has now become limited to profit, and so the proletariat must struggle to control productivity by political power (e.g. the very medium of exchange value is the limit of production by limiting circulation – while Proudhonists seek to reform circulation by currency reforms, Marx sees that it must all begin in production itself):
<Vulgar socialism […] has taken over from the bourgeois economists the consideration and treatment of distribution as independent of the mode of production and hence the presentation of socialism as turning principally on distribution.
https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1875/gotha/ch01.htm
So, it's about contradictions leading to concrete struggles in society:
<In these crises, a great part not only of the existing products, but also of the previously created productive forces, are periodically destroyed. In these crises, there breaks out an epidemic that, in all earlier epochs, would have seemed an absurdity — the epidemic of over-production.
https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1848/communist-manifesto/ch01.htm
Dutt perceives war as a result of this need to periodically destroy the means of production – the promise of peace is a promise of productivity.

>>2932640
>The underlying potential and direction of production changes by virtue of the world's contingency, but this manifests itself through class struggle as new interests emerges in tandem with underlying changes.
<The resolution of structural crises in a mode of production always depends on the direct intervention of the class struggle; but the germination of such crises may well take all social classes by surprise in a given historical totality, by deriving from other structural levels of it than their own immediate confrontation. It is their clash within the unfolding emergency which, as wc shall see in the case of the feudal crisis, then determines its outcome
t. Perry Anderson, Passages from Antiquity to Feudalism
Maybe reading a concrete application of the materialist conception of history like his will help you develop a better understanding of it?

>The devastating effects of English industry, when contemplated with regard to India, a country as vast as Europe, and containing 150 millions of acres, are palpable and confounding. But we must not forget that they are only the organic results of the whole system of production as it is now constituted. That production rests on the supreme rule of capital. The centralization of capital is essential to the existence of capital as an independent power. The destructive influence of that centralization upon the markets of the world does but reveal, in the most gigantic dimensions, the inherent organic laws of political economy now at work in every civilized town.

<The bourgeois period of history has to create the material basis of the new world—on the one hand universal intercourse founded upon the mutual dependency of mankind, and the means of that intercourse; on the other hand the development of the productive powers of man and the transformation of material production into a scientific domination of natural agencies. Bourgeois industry and commerce create these material conditions of a new world in the same way as geological revolutions have created the surface of the earth. When a great social revolution shall have mastered the results of the bourgeois epoch, the market of the world and the modern powers of production, and subjected them to the common control of the most advanced peoples, then only will human progress cease to resemble that hideous, pagan idol, who would not drink the nectar but from the skulls of the slain.

There's a tension in Marxist rhetoric on whether history is just a blind procession of technology (the windmill gives you feudal lords, the steam engine gives you industrial capitalists, electrification and soviet power gives you communism) vs. at some point humans have to seize society by the throat and make history happen because history isn't a god outside society and actually depends on human will. In the former mode they write like socialism is inevitable, like when Eugene Debs said despite all the setbacks socialism is as sure to come as the rising sun.
