The main issue with most immigration rhetoric is that it fails to distinguish between legal and illegal immigration, and so it confuses its messaging. I am then lead to believe that its not about "immigration" per se (since I'm sure we would accept plenty of more Ukrainian refugees), but its about less brown/black people in the UK, full stop. It is the movement from nationalism to racism.

>It is the movement from nationalism to racism.
This isn't really in contention; there was a notable channel 4 interview with some of the asylum protestors a few months back where their entire discourse hinged on the implicit and normative assumption of race as being the presiding factor over being relocated to their town.

Third World theory only applied to cold war dynamics

>It makes little sense to say that the dictatorship of the proletariat in the USSR would materially contradict the progressive bourgeois-democratic alliance of the proletariat and the anti-colonial national bourgeoisie in the Arab countries because that would mean the contradiction of the class interests of the Soviet proletariat with the class interests of the Arab proletariat. One can therefore calculate that the Soviets would never betray the anti-colonial Arab forces, even if, at face-value, appearing to betray it. And it unsurprisingly turns out that such a calculation is backed up immensely by historical empirical evidence – namely the military and economic support of the USSR and the Peoples’ Democracies for the Arab anti-colonial war effort during the 1948 War.
>The USSR was hedging its bets by sending some Czech arms from a remote air field to … Syria through Rijeka and Beirut….

>A specific faction within Czechoslovakia, the Slansky faction, did use its influence to provide arms to Israel. The shipments were illegal and part of the treasonous activity of the Titoist faction in the Czechoslovak state. However, the communist faction, the Gottwald faction, was responsible for the arms shipments to Syria.

Hence, the USSR and People’s Democratic Czechoslovakia provided arms to Syria, Egypt, and Lebanon to combat the regime of Israel. People’s Democratic Romania also provided the petroleum resources crucial for the war effort. The USSR also increased its economic ties to Egypt during this time. The two states signed two trade agreements, giving each other highly-favored-nation statuses:

Stalin never supported israel, neither kaganovich or molotov, neither all of soviet leadership.

What would LASSALLE’s theme song be?

>>In the meantime, it is absolutely vital that the Allied powers defeat the Nazis.
See, the problem was that this was far from the consensus position among communists at the time. Most people considered Britain and France to be just as hostile to the USSR as the Nazis were, and there was a lot of truth to this. If the Germans had invaded the Soviet Union before going to war with the West (e.g., if they had negotiated transit through Poland or gotten the Poles to join the attack), it's likely that Britain and France would have supported Germany if not joined their war effort.

>If you tax the land a MoP factory is on then you tax the accumulation of capital.
Guy runs factory on land he doesn't own. From that guy the landlord takes money for his "service". The landlord is doing that irrespective of whether the landlord is taxed or not.

A monopoly on land is no different from a monopoly on a better kind of production. Commercial landlords are still department 1 and should not be taxed.

Listen I wouldn't bother arguing because its very clear from >>2813901 that the guy posting doesn't understand what a land rent is or what land value taxes are.

Its not even that he didn't read volume 3 on differential rent or even ricardo; Guy hasn't even read the Communist Manifesto basic programme.

Labor leaders call collective bargaining veto a ‘betrayal’ by Virginia governor
Virginia’s Democratic governor, Abigail Spanberger, vetoed a bill on Thursday that would have restored collective bargaining rights for 50,000 public sector workers in the state. Union leaders say the veto is a “betrayal” and “slap in the face” after the governor campaigned last year on promises to restore collective bargaining rights. Though majorities in both chambers of Virginia’s general assembly passed legislation that would restore bargaining rights to most public sector workers, Spanberger introduced an amended version of the bill last month that was eventually rejected by the assembly.

FAA cuts target for air traffic control staffing
The report said the time controllers spend on position managing air ⁠traffic has declined despite a 4% increase in traffic. It added it could increase time ​on position from around four hours per shift to more than five hours. The ​FAA said "deploying modern staffing models and scheduling tools will improve controller staffing efficiency and reduce the need for excessive overtime."

Pentagon quietly shut legally required program to prevent civilian deaths by military, watchdog finds
A report released by the department’s inspector general concluded the US military no longer has the people, tools or infrastructure needed to comply with two federal statutes requiring it to maintain a functioning civilian casualty policy, and operate a Civilian Protection Center of Excellence (CP CoE). Donald Trump’s administration has been accused of making deep cuts to the Pentagon’s civilian harm mitigation and response (CHMR) program, designed to handle training and procedures critical in limiting civilian harm in theaters of war.

Statement by the Palestinian Resistance Factions on the 78th Anniversary of the Nakba
The Nakba continues through killing, massacres, expulsion, discrimination, impoverishment, siege, starvation, international silence, and US partnership. What is happening in the Gaza Strip and all Palestinian territories is a chapter in the series of ethnic cleansing and genocide that has not stopped for 78 years of zionist oppression and brutality, revealing the nature of the zionist project as a colonial, racist, uprooting tool. 78 years since the Nakba of the Palestinian people have been enough to build a revolutionary, resistance-minded, and fighter generation that believes in freedom and aspires to be free from the injustice of the “israeli” enemy and the return of every displaced Palestinian to their homeland. Return is a right for us that does not expire with time, and we will not compromise our land, sanctities, and legitimate rights, regardless of the sacrifices. Our people and our fighters will rise from under the rubble to build their homeland and future anew.

The General Strike in Wales
When the General Strike began on 4 May 1926, the coalfield communities of South Wales answered the call with militancy. Throughout the valleys, workers moved quickly to organise and coordinate themselves for the strike. This was a period of inspiring class struggle, which proved the courage and militancy of the working class and their ability to run society for themselves. In the Rhondda, strike committees were formed within hours of the strike beginning on 4 May. By the following day, they were controlling the region’s transport. They decided what lorries could carry and where they could go, and issued permits accordingly. They liaised with railway workers to prevent the movement of coal without their permission.
