Facebook's Threads is so depressing by Jason O. Gilbert
https://jogblog.substack.com/p/facebooks-threads-is-so-depressing>>2840472>The Great-Russian and Ukrainian workers must work together, and, as long as they live in a single state, act in the closest organisational unity and concert, towards a common or international culture of the proletarian movement, displaying absolute tolerance in the question of the language in which propaganda is conducted, and in the purely local or purely national details of that propaganda. This is the imperative demand of Marxism. All advocacy of the segregation of the workers of one nation from those of another, all attacks upon Marxist “assimilation”, or attempts, where the proletariat is concerned, to contrapose one national culture as a whole to another allegedly integral national culture, and so forth, is bourgeois nationalism, against which it is essential to wage a ruthless struggle.Please just read Lenin im begging you
https://www.marxists.org/archive/lenin/works/1913/crnq/3.htm >>2840774the british empire was AES
>>2840837>>Whoever does not recognise and champion the equality of nations and languages, and does not fight against all national oppression or inequality, is not a Marxist; he is not even a democrat. So in other words, liberation of oppressed nations within America is a necessary part of a Marxist program there. What Lenin is talking about here is the natural assimilation and creation of a monoculture that happens alongside industrialization and urbanization. He's not defending deliberate policies of cultural suppression and discrimination.
>>2840854>So in other words, liberation of oppressed nations within America is a necessary part of a Marxist program there. no? he's saying the slogan should be equality of all nations in the united states, not the separation of them
>To throw off the feudal yoke, all national oppression, and all privileges enjoyed by any particular nation or language, is the imperative duty of the proletariat as a democratic force, and is certainly in the interests of the proletarian class struggle, which is obscured and retarded by bickering on the national question. But to go beyond these strictly limited and definite historical limits in helping bourgeois nationalism means betraying the proletariat and siding with the bourgeoisie. There is a border-line here, which is often very slight and which the Bundists and Ukrainian nationalist-socialists completely lose sight of.
>Combat all national oppression? Yes, of course! Fight for any kind of national development, for “national culture” in general?—Of course not. The economic development of capitalist society presents us with examples of immature national movements all over the world, examples of the formation of big nations out of a number of small ones, or to the detriment of some of the small ones, and also examples of the assimilation of nations. The development of nationality in general is the principle of bourgeois nationalism; hence the exclusiveness of bourgeois nationalism, hence the endless national bickering. The proletariat, however, far from undertaking to uphold the national development of every nation, on the contrary, warns the masses against such illusions, stands for the fullest freedom of capitalist intercourse and welcomes every kind of assimilation of nations, except that which is founded on force or privilege.Force or privilege is the key phrase here, Lenin later remarks that it would progressive if large nations, even the oppressor ones, amalgamated with nations that are willing to, so long as its not based on force or privilege
https://www.marxists.org/archive/lenin/works/1913/crnq/4.htm >>2840874>not the separation of themWho is advocating separation? How would autonomy for Indigenous nations be meaningfully different than the SSR system?
>>2840451Summary for everyone who can't be bothered to watch this:
Hasan called Bad Empanada a psyop
BadEmpanada says Hasan is actually the Psyop because of his connections to the Democrats and support for Platner

That's pretty much it.
>>2840876>How would autonomy for Indigenous nations be meaningfully different than the SSR system?bruh the soviet states had a lot of leeway but they were beholden to moscow. lets not pretend like they were truly sovereign like the native american states should be if they ever gained independence from bourgeois america. in any case you're thinking too small, an SSR system would be redundant after global revolution

>>2842615Yugoslavia was a social imperialist country, a prison house of nations, and under control of the IMF. Serbs were simply fighting in an anti-colonialist struggle of national liberation while Albanians, Croats and Bosniaks were genocidal collaborators of NATO.
No massacres happened on the Serbian side as they only fought a righteous war of freedom while the people in camps were criminals who were put there for their own protection. Ultimately though, the entire war was NATO's fault. They wanted to keep Serbia from becoming a great nation on par with the USA, but alas.
Also the International Court of Justice is a racist institution who hated Slavs, the only Europeans they ever prosecuted. After rigorous study of history only one conclusion emerges as a shinning halo of truth: Uncle Slobodan did not commit a single crime.

>>2844016>>2843364The USSR did not arm zionist militia's, but they did explicitly train and arm the arab armies that fought them in syria and Lebanon. This is obvious if you know anything about the conflicts and that region
Isn't it interesting how ultroids, trots and other anticommunist retards have to twist this around and pretend it was actually the ussr that's responsible for israel? They only started doing this after the genocide exelerated btw, they didn't give a shit before that. It's like to them something like a modern day holocaust is just more ammo to fire at Marxism Leninism and nothing else. r/ultraleft even made that picture of stalin in front of the israeli flag their main image. Absolutely disgusting trash
>>2844209>The USSR did not arm zionist militia's,They did. America had an arms embargo against Israel. The USSR was the only country willing to give weapons to the Israelis. Without those weapons delivered via the Czechs the Israelis would have been BTFO immediately.
>>2844119Extensive use of the source section which you are already supposed to be doing
>>2844209>>2844213I think people are fighting present-day ideological battles and they're trying to bend history to do that, but a lot of historical context gets lost. The Arabs were once supported by the British (shock horror) against the Ottoman Empire. This was pre-Nasser. The U.K. supported the Hashemites who are still ruling Jordan. It's a very unusual thing by our standards today because Jordanian troops in 1948 were fighting Israel while being commanded by British officers in the field. The Arab Legion was financed and trained by the U.K.
Palestinan politics was also very close with the pan-Arab cause, and the Soviet Union supported partition to create both a Jewish state and an Arab state, so the Soviet Union wasn't being inconsistent. That doesn't make the Palestinian national movement which emerged there illegitimate BTW. But the Arab states rejected partition. But their position wasn't for there to be a Palestinian nation-state per se. Abdullah I actually annexed the West Bank and East Jerusalem in 1950. Nasser coming to power in Egypt really changed things in 1954.
>>2844213Czechoslovakia is not the USSR. And at the time, communist control had not even been consolidated over the country. It was an independent sale of arms with no explicit intention on the part of the Soviet Union, unlike when they were arming and training arab armies in syria and Lebanon to fight zionists.
Trying to burden the entirety of the responsibility of Israel's existence on the shoulders of one czech arms dealer (who was allegedly killed by the ussr later that year btw) is retarded, not to mention anticommunist and ahistorical
>>2844220>I think people are fighting present-day ideological battles and they're trying to bend history to do thatLike I said to them the history of Palestine and the currently ongoing genocide of palestinians is just something to bludgeon the ussr with.
It's despicable
>>2844225>Like I said to them the history of Palestine and the currently ongoing genocide of palestinians is just something to bludgeon the ussr with.Yes. That's what they're doing. There are also some Zionists who will opportunistically try to make Israel out to be some progressive thing, but Labor Zionism is dead af, so I haven't seen them do "but the USSR supported us…" as much as saying Israel has gays or whatever. But here's an Israeli T.V. show for teens about teen arms smugglers in the 1940s whose enemies are the British. There are even red flags up on the wall in their compound (because they were socialists).
I don't think this is really a big problem for anti-Zionists of the left BTW. I'm just saying it's only a problem for the left if there's a left that thinks things never change and don't have internal contradictions are just uniformly one thing across time. Things have a habit of turning to their opposites. So what was progressive at one point mutates over time into something else. This can hurt people's brains though.
>And at the time, communist control had not even been consolidated over the country. It was an independent sale of arms with no explicit intention on the part of the Soviet UnionEh, that's an alibi. The Soviet Union stopped the Czechs from delivering arms to the Arabs, but not Israel, because the Czechs wanted to sell to both sides to make money. The Soviets didn't supply Israel directly though (even though they met with an Israeli representative to discuss it) because they also voted for an arms embargo, which was a U.N. arms embargo. The Israeli request for Soviet arms never made it to Stalin either BTW, it was handled on the foreign ministry side and ultimately up to Gromyko who shot it down. But they even told the Israelis to go get weapons from the Czechs and Yugoslavs.
Also, BTW, communist newspapers were kind of sympathetic to Israel and not supportive of Arab "aggression" in the 1948 war. That didn't last long though. The switch happened pretty quick.
ML obsession with "national liberation" helped create Israel. Simple as that
>>2844231>Czechoslovakia would not have been able to carry out the arms transfers without express approval from MoscowYes they could retard. Just because you assert that to be the case without evidence doesn't make it so. The ussr didn't have complete omnipotent control over all territories, just a couple years after the war ended. The guy who signed off on the arms transfer, was the last stop of approval that was needed. He didn't need to ring up stalin or even the party at all to do that, as communist control over the country had not been fully established, that would happen some time after.
>Not only that but the USSR was the first state in the UN to give diplomatic recognition to the new state of IsraelLiterally completely irrelevant antistalinist cope. Ussr supposedly created israel by recognizing it's existence after it had already come to be. You might criticise it as a bad move of attempted geopolitik or whatever, but to say this is somehow responsible for the creation of israel is completely retarded.
>Furthermore the USSR even encouraged the remaining Jews in Eastern Europe to go fight for IsraelNo they didn't. The ussr made no such push for people in their sphere of influence to go move to some bumfuck country they had no control or influence over
>>2844230
>Eh, that's an alibiNo that's the truth, communist consolidation of Czechoslovakia wouldn't happen until later that year. When most non communist members of parliament resigned and a new government was formed.
Also literally syria and lebanon received arms from czechoslovakia, so idk what you're talking about
<The Soviet media stated that the anti-imperialist bloc would support the just cause of the Arabs; these were by no means empty promises. Throughout the 1948 War, the USSR and the Peoples’ Democracies of Eastern Europe covertly furnished the Arabs with military assistance. With respect to military aid to the Arabs, however, another excerpt of the previously mentioned Soviet-Syrian and Soviet-Lebanese secret treaties in 1946 was as follows:
<The Soviet Union agrees to send a sufficient number of military personnel to Syria, comprising military instructors and high-ranking officers, in order to help Syria to build up as rapidly as possible a national army of some strength. (The Soviet Union and Egypt, 1945-55, Rami Ginat, 1993, p. 70. Citing: From Encroachment to Involvement, a Documentary Study of Soviet Policy in the Middle East, 1945-1973. Israel University Press, Yaacov Ro’i, 1974, pp. 29-30) (IMG)
<And the same type of deal was made in the secret treaty with Lebanon:
<A secret treaty between the USSR and the Lebanese government based on these [above] clauses, was signed two days later. (The Soviet Union and Egypt, 1945-55, Rami Ginat, 1993, p. 70) (IMG)
<With regards to Soviet military support for Syria, the well-known Syrian politician Akram Howrani, who would later hold prominent positions in Nasserist and Ba’athist governments in Syria, confirmed that the Soviets were ‘offering military equipment in exchange for a pledge that we will not participate in any international agreements against it’, and that a female colleague of his received a special telegram regarding the details of a Soviet offer of military and economic aid:
<Then, on October 2, 1946, I published the following comment on the possibility of establishing our relations with the Soviet Union.
<“When Radio Moscow, quoting the correspondent of the Russian newspaper “Pravda”, broadcast the news of the British offer to conclude a military alliance treaty between England and Syria. When this news was broadcast, the Syrian government rushed and issued a statement saying, “This news is not true.” It is necessary to clarify all the internal and external circumstances regarding our current situation, but this certainty disappears little by little when other news is published and broadcasted that is closely related to our situation and our situation.
<“A female colleague published a few days ago what a Jewish newspaper said in a special telegram she received from Beirut: ‘The government of the Soviet Union submitted proposals to Syria and Lebanon in which it presented to the two countries a guarantee of their independence and safety, and that it was ready to support the two countries’ international stance and support their respective steps in the United Nations Council. In every other international conference, support for Syria's demands from Turkey on the Alexandretta issue, the provision of tractors, agricultural machinery and building materials, the conclusion of commercial treaties with them, and the provision of military equipment at a fixed price for a long period.’
<“This is what was published last Sunday morning. The official circles met him only with complete silence, as if the matter did not concern them in a little or a lot… But we cannot stand idly by on this issue. Rather, the nation wants to know the facts. The facts are detailed. Because our country has become, by virtue of its geographical location, a field of competition between the major powers with influence. We must take advantage of this dangerous circumstance as much as we can.
<“Our independence is guaranteed by the United Nations.
<“As for providing military equipment to our army. What we know is British. And before that, French. You did not agree to give us enough weapons for this young army. Then the opposition of these two countries to us was clear in our purchase of arms from America. And here is a Russian offering military equipment in exchange for a pledge that we will not participate in any international agreements against it. What is our position also on this offer?
<“That's the logic. And our international position, and our interest. All of this requires us not to be hostile to any country, unless it tries to detract from our independence and sovereignty.”

<The support of the USSR for Syria was not limited to the period before the 1948 War but continued well afterwards onto during the 1948 War. Indeed the USSR – along with the Eastern European Peoples’ Democracies – militarily and economically backed Syria and Lebanon during the 1948 War. As material support for the Arab fighters, the Soviet Union and the Czechoslovak People’s Democracy provided weapons whereas Romania supplied the petroleum:
<Some of the Arab League countries have purchased arms from Czechoslovakia; the largest shipments to the Arabs from that country have gone to Syria and Lebanon. Small shipments from the USSR or Balkan ports are also reported to have landed on the Syrian and Lebanese coasts; also, petroleum products are now being shipped to Lebanon by Rumania. (POSSIBLE DEVELOPMENTS FROM THE PALESTINE TRUCE, ORE 38-48, CIA, July 27, 1948, p. 9) (IMG)
<As a result of Soviet military aid, the position of the Arabs improved significantly:
<The armament position of the Arabs has been notably improved by … a $2,035,000 contract for small arms, ammunitions, and other materiel just negotiated by Syria with the Skoda works of Czechoslovakia … and … the reported arrival of Soviet shipments of small arms in Lebanon and Syria. (Book III – Weekly Summary – 3 July 1947 (#55) thru 30 December 1947 (#79), CIA, pp. III-IV) (IMG) >>2844258>No that's the truth, communist consolidation of Czechoslovakia wouldn't happen until later that year. Czech arms shipments to Israel continued until 1951. The Soviet Union could've stopped it. (They did eventually too when their policy changed.)
>Also literally syria and lebanon received arms from czechoslovakiaAccording to the attached pdf, Czechoslovakia was selling surplus WWII German weapons to both sides and the USSR pressured them on behalf of Israel to stop selling them to the Arabs, but some may have arrived during the fighting because they had already signed the contracts. BTW, the communists also sped up emigration of Jews out of Europe to Israel (they had been mostly sitting in DP camps since the end of the war) with Soviet representatives at the U.N. defending it by saying that Israel was acting in self-defense. (Also look up Ana Pauker btw.)
>>2844284As far as I am aware the shipments continued until 49. So like a year after the deal had been made. We can coulda woulda shoulda about that, but it's besides the point. The deal was made without soviet oversight or involvement. What they were involved with was arming and training the arab national armies of syria and lebanon
>USSR pressured them on behalf of Israel to stop selling them to the ArabsI don't believe that to be true. The Soviet union built the arab armies basically from scratch and continued to furnish and support them for years to come.
<Dwalibi confirmed that the U.S.S.R offered arms to Syria and talks about a treaty of friendship and commerce had been going on between Farid Zain al-Din, the Syrian Minister to Moscow and Vyshinskyii, the Soviet Foreign Minister. Dwalibi was reported as saying that the Syrian Government had not made any decision about Soviet proposals to supply all Syria's requirements from arms manufactured in the Soviet Union or Czechoslovakia; (The Soviet Union and Egypt – 1947-1955, Rami Ginat, 1991, p. 150. Citing: Telegram 206 from F.O. to Damascus, 13 May 1950, F0371/82794, EY10338/2. Khalid al-Azm, the Syrian Prime Minister, said that Syria would obtain its arms from any available sources; see telegram 128 from Damascus, 17 May 1950, F0371/82814, EY11338/2.) (IMG)
<The deal did go through. That the USSR furnished Syria with arms in 1950 is confirmed by the interview-memoirs of Dr. Ma’rouf Al-Dwalibi, the prominent Syrian official at the time. Although a staunch anti-communist and anti-Soviet slanderer, he was nonetheless one of the officials of a progressive and Soviet-friendly government in Syria. As a minister of the Hashim Al-Attasi administration, he was tasked with negotiating arms with the USSR. In his interview-memoirs, Al-Dwalibi recalled his 1950 negotiations with the Soviet ambassador as follows:
<I also told him: ‘You participated in planting the Jews in our country, and this [Israel] is the result. And now I want a weapon from you, because we are threatened.’ He said: ‘We cannot give you a weapon, because we just got out of the [Great Patriotic] War. All of our arms production should be for our country.’ He asked me for a copy of the peace agreement, and I sent it to him; and he sent it to Stalin. And he went crazy, and after four days, he issued an order to give us whatever weapons we wanted. Thus, the door to the weapon was opened. Three months later, I became Speaker of Parliament. (Memoirs of Dr. Ma’rouf Al-Dwalibi, interviewed by: Mohammad Ali Hashemi, interviewee: Dr. Ma’rouf Al-Dwalibi, 2005, p. 146) (IMG)
<Dwalibi was someone who tried to portray the USSR as problematic, but he did admit that four days after the Soviet ambassador sent the letter to Stalin, the Soviet state ordered that Syria be given ‘whatever weapons [she] wanted’ and thus ‘the door to the weapon was opened’. >>2844284>BTW, the communists also sped up emigration of Jews out of Europe to IsraelYour pdf says the opposite
<The emigration of Soviet Jews was strictly prohibited from the very beginning. According to Soviet data, 500 people were permitted to emigrate to Israel between 1945 and 1955.117 Israeli data indicates that 131 Jews left the Soviet Union for the Jewish state between 1948 and 1955, with only nine of those leaving before Stalin's death in 1953.118 According to a memorandum sent to Molotov and Vyshinskii in April 1952, out of 65 applications received by the Militia between 1948 and 1951, only ten were granted.119 When Israeli diplomats arrived in Moscow in September 1948, Soviet leaders made it clear that Soviet Jews were not interested in emigration to Israel. >>2844291They said european jews in post-war displaced persons camps, not specifically russian jews.
>>2844390Stalin did make mistakes. For example, Stalin said "no" to Chinese ascension into the USSR, thereby breaking democratic centralism
>>2844514Pretty much always that bad. I guess the recent trends have been they promote more foreign language stuff so that created newer race-wars like the "Japs vs Blacks."
>>2844514Here is something weird I witnessed during trump's attempts at importing Afrikaner "refugees". There were two africans, one from mozambique and one from angola talking about how they were going to breed out the white women in south africa.
But here is the catch: Two africans from portuguese speaking african countries were speaking to each other in african-american ghetto vernacular.
Elon's entire website is a racist psyop. My guess is 90% of the people on that site are bots or people working in bot farms.
>>2844663 me personally, i think so, yes

>>2844779Its an anti-Communist position to argue that Germans who adhered to Nazi ideology in WWII cannot be reached by a Communist programme. Proletarians are proletarians even if they adhere to the reactionary camp at some point.
But anyway its very funny how defense of Platner depends on lying about him being anti-militarist or repentant, even though he's so outspoken about how he's not either of those two things.
>>2844784If they were proletarians at all in the first place they’d be immune to reactionary ideology. There’s no such thing as false consciousness and people aren’t stupid.
>>2844784That's a separate question. You've twisted them having succumbed to propaganda to them being victims.
>>2844784Germans are an inherently reactionary people that deserves to be exterminated
t. picrel
>>2844799What? What are you basing that off? From everything I've read by Engels he sounds like a German chauvinist. He seemed to only identify as a German. I remember this intro he wrote to Das Kapital and he said something like "only a German mind could come up with such a theory" or something.
>>2844800Marxism was a reaction to industrial capitalism
>>2844779Getting triggered at a lack of condemnation of Nazis in 2026 just seems played out
Like who tf still cares atp
>>2844800also despite Engels' cringe takes, his own words support this conclusion. certain nations are inherently reactionary and they must be exterminated. it's just unfortunate the Germany is part of said nations
>>2844804it's so passé, so played out, don't they get it's gone out of style
>>2844290>The deal was made without soviet oversight or involvement.The initial deal was, that's true, but there are citations of Soviet officials talking about it, and even being like "well we would sell you arms, but y'know it's complicated, however…"
>I don't believe that to be true. The paper I linked cites a collection of Soviet-Israeli diplomatic records that were declassified by Russia. They were published by an academic press in Israel but it's not freely available.
>The Soviet union built the arab armies basically from scratch and continued to furnish and support them for years to come.Yeah, but the following excerpt (from this Baathist official) says 1950. Then looking it up, I see other sources that say it didn't really start until 1955, so idk. In any event the Soviets did switch to backing up the Arabs. The main thing is really just what Soviet officials actually supported at the U.N. in 1947 by supporting partition and what they said themselves about why did that. Also the basic tilt or lean towards Israel in their own publications. The reason is because Israel was much more anti-British at the time with the Israelis viewing the U.K. as being an all but undeclared war with them. Israelis shot down British fighter planes too.
>>2844308>They said european jews in post-war displaced persons camps, not specifically russian jews.Yeah they made it difficult for Soviet Jews to leave. But they drained out much of the Jews from Eastern Europe (a lot of whom wanted to GTFO of Europe and go to Palestine anyways). Poland, Romania, Hungary. It was a problem for the communists because there were hundreds of thousands of people sitting in camps who had lost everything. Like a Polish gentile family was now sitting in an apartment that once belonged to a Jewish family.
>>2844800>"only a German mind could come up with such a theory"ngl I think he is right germans have an unique kind of autism
>>2844810>certain nations are inherently reactionary Actually read the Magyar struggle. The Slavs in Austria-Hungary being reactionary was contingent on the historical context of them being supportive of the Russian intervention to suppress the Hungarian Revolution of 1848.
>>2844816yeah, in the 1800's Germans were progressive. today they are reactionary
>>2844951yeah? today the Germans are reactionary in their support for Israel. degermanization is one cure for this
>uyghas not responding immediately by pointing out the year at which the Engels statement was published, indicating M&E still being stuck in immature stage of theoretical development

Marx:
In my view, the most momentous thing happening in the world today is the slave movement — on the one hand, in America, started by the death of [John] Brown*, and in Russia, on the other. You will have read that the aristocracy in Russia literally threw themselves into constitutional agitation and that two or three members of leading families have already found their way to Siberia. At the same time, Alexander has displeased the peasants, for the recent manifesto declares outright that, with emancipation, ‘the Communistic principle’ must be abandoned. Thus, a ‘social’ movement has been started both in the West and in the East. Together with the impending downbreak in Central Europe, this promises great things.do you people even read?

>>2847583unc is mad he's almost 40 and balding
Montreal shooter was some socially conservative / trad incel "communist." Has a manifesto that's 120 pages long.
Blamed capitalism for inceldom contrasting with a sort of trad vision of the USSR, thought PUA and maculinity bros were swindlers (true) then lays out targets for adventurist violence (the wealthy and powerful, especially real estate developers, elite bankers, politicians, and then pornographic industry CEOs, health insurance CEOs, plastic surgeons, etc.). There's also a section on the lumpenproletariat which he wants to exterminate. Apparently he targeted the office of a porn company.
He had this worldview about societies moving through "modes of intimacy," and we're currently in "hypergamy" which is also related to capitalism, in which women "copulate as they please with a plethora of attractive males, as opposed to monogamy, in which the same females would be bound legalistically and culturally to just one male." Also he has a kind of "class struggle" view of the sexes, as human beings are sexually dimorphic, so "the existence of the contradiction of the imperatives has naturally produced oppositional forces, at varying degrees of severity, between the two sexes in all hitherto existing human societies."
He then advocates a planned economy to "deprive the bourgois class of its ability to enslave us and hoard our women." Women in the labor force will be replaced with robots, while the "domain of the males … in labour, craftsmanship, academia, the military, and other such occupations, are not so easily occupied by robots, or at least not on a very large scale in the forseeable future." (Hmm, not so sure about that.) So this vision is of a society where men work in construction and agriculture, or serve in the military or as cops, or academia and state administration. The women will be slaves to the men in strictly monogamous relationships. Also cars will be banned and people will take trains everywhere (but primarily in either a military or state industry context), because cars increase the ability of men and women to freely move around and have sex with each other.
The internet will be strictly regulated and censored, and "social degenerates" tracked and arrested before being killed or sent to forced labor camps. Also everyone should be able to see what everyone else is doing online. (Reminds me of "We" by Zamyatin where everyone lives in glass homes and intimacy is strictly regulated by the state because passion led to war and blew up the world.) Also he wants his vanguard of incel revolutionaries to wear uniforms of "ominous or macabre in design, perhaps making use of peculiar colours, otherworldly patterns, and grim depictions of daemonic beings in order to strike as much fear and confusion as possible into hostile elements." Ladies, be careful of men who only feel real when wearing uniforms!
>>2847990>Jet setting lifestyleno wonder he has to vomit out drama constantly.
>>2847993future hitler will be an incel. first as tragedy, etc
>>2848003He sees himself doing his own thing, but wants his vanguard to infiltrate "conservative socialism" and "Duginism."
>The second stage is the seizure of positions of power by the revolutionary vanguard, and the subsequent usage of their newfound power to carry out the liquidation of the hypergamy state. The revolutionary vanguard should operate in a clandestine manner throughout this process however, not presenting their core doctrine as being the elimination of systemic hypergamy. Instead, they should take on the visible forms of a variety of political movements (e.g. conservative socialism, Duginism, communism, Islamic theocracy) in accordance with the social conditions of their respective areas, while keeping their main intentions either hidden or ostensibly marginal.Thing is, to get the whole thing going (somehow) requires people getting themselves killed in suicidal battles with the police. He says this very explicitly, and also distinguishes between "corrupt" big-city police and small-town police, who theoretically might be won over to his cause (even though he says the cops were popular kids in high school??? I guess!). So in the case of more "genuine" police departments, he suggests approaching them with a gun, but not shooting them, or firing over their heads so you don't harm them when they kill you, and if that doesn't work then you should shoot yourself.
Also one of his proposed tactics is to pose as women online to lure sexually degenerate males into ambushes. That especially goes for those rap guys with their bling-bling. He wants to kill all the rappers because rap is the "cultural quintessence of the hypergamy state, congealed into a musical form."

>>2847993I am going to go on a limb and say that this highly confused ideology is a product of AI validation. There is no fucking way he polished this turd by himself lacking even a basic understanding of most of the terms he uses.
Or that he shared with with anyone, except maybe some deranged enabler fed, and they didn't shame him out of ever talking to another human being, as a result.
So I must conclude this dogshit screed is the product of an LLM with enough understanding of the terms to twist them on demand and a hardcoded drive to please the user.

>For instance, in 1956, he co-authored an article with Horkheimer in defense of the imperialist invasion of Egypt by Israel, Britain and France, which aimed at seizing the Suez Canal and overthrowing Nasser (an action condemned by the United Nations). Referring to Nasser, one of the prominent anti-colonial leaders of the non-aligned movement, as “a fascist chieftain […] who conspires with Moscow,” they exclaimed: “No one even ventures to point out that these Arab robber states have been on the lookout for years for an opportunity to fall upon Israel and to slaughter the Jews who have found refuge there.”[56] According to this pseudo-dialectical inversion, it is the Arab states that are “robbers,” not the settler colony working with core imperialist countries to infringe upon the self-determination of Arabs.You Marxists who seethe at Rockhill also seethe at Iran for the exact same reasons as the CIA scholars you were programmed with hahaha:
1940s Zionist anti-Stalinist Marxists like Adorno and Horkheimer:
<"Of course me and my antifascist comrades will never defend these Arab regimes! State socialists doing nationalization of oil to feed children isn't REAL COMMUNISM. We need to SMASH THEIR STATE so we can open the Suez Canal for global free markets so Israel can control those nazi Arabs"2020s Jewish anti-Stalinist Marxists on This Is Revolution or The Antifada podcasts:
<"Of course me and my antifascist comrades will never defend the Iranian regime! State socialists doing oil nationalization to feed children isn't REAL COMMUNISM. We need to SMASH THEIR STATE to open the Strait of Hormuz for global free markets so Israel can control those nazi Iranians.""Venezuela is Hamas" - Western Marxists, I assume
on the Frankfurt School inventing the anti-union woke identity politics that we see reproduced by every well trained compatible leftist today:
>1940—the year Pollock wrote “State Capitalism”—as it increasingly turned its back on class analysis in favor of privileging race, culture and identity…Adorno and Horkheimer “opened up the possibility from within Marxism of seeing class as a matter of power, of domination, rather than economics (the Jews were not a category defined by economic exploitation). And once that possibility was raised, it became the dominant mode of analysis on the left at large.”[35] In other words, the Frankfurt theorists helped set the stage for a more general shift away from historical materialist analysis grounded in political economy toward culturalism and identity politics, which would become consolidated in the neoliberal era.>It is highly revealing in this regard that the Institute undertook a massive study of “Anti-Semitism in American Labor” in 1944-45, under Pollock’s stewardship. Fascism had risen to power with extensive financial backing by the capitalist ruling class, and it was still on the war path around the world.>Yet, the Frankfurt scholars were hired to focus on the purported anti-Semitism of U.S. workers rather than on the capitalist funders of fascism or the actual Nazis who were fighting a war against the Soviets. They reached the remarkable conclusion that the “communist-run” unions were the worst of all, and that they thus had “fascist” tendencies: “The members of these unions are less communist than fascist-minded.”[36] >The study in question was commissioned by the Jewish Labor Committee (JLC). One of the JLC’s leaders, David Dubinsky, had numerous ties to the Central Intelligence Agency and was involved, along with the likes of CIA operatives Jay Lovestone and Irving Brown, in the Company’s expansive campaign to take over organized labor and purge it of communists.[37] By identifying the communist unions as the most anti-Semitic, and even “fascist,” the Frankfurt School appears to have provided some of the ideological justification for destroying the communist labor movement.Really funny to see all every leftist who I already hate for being radlibs all react with this exact same kneejerk impulse to deny and attack Rockhill as a "bad scholar" for daring to labeling you as the compatible left. In typical apolitical Democrat fashion, DSA liberals try to say AOC's Zionism is just her being "bad at messaging" and "accidentally saying stupid shit". No, AOC is very clear and articulate with her political ideology of Zionism!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nihilistic_violent_extremism>Nihilistic violent extremism (NVE) is a term used by law enforcement agencies to refer to extremism and violence lacking an ideological motivation, instead motivated by a misanthropic worldview and generalized hatred for society. It is closely associated with groups such as 764 and No Lives Matter. Despite nihilistic violent extremism's characterization as being unmotivated by genuine ideology, groups or individuals falling under this umbrella may adopt the aesthetics or tactics of, or have sympathies for, other extremist ideologies like neo-Nazism, the variant of Satanism associated with the Order of Nine Angles, and accelerationism. It is also closely associated with sexual misconduct, such as solicitation, production, or possession of child pornography, and sextortion, as well as general violence. >>2848404Average YouTube content be like

i guess this is different to mcdonalds showing a representation of a plastic Big Mac and saying this is just a representation of what it 'might' look like.
advertisers are not supposed to outright lie, but at the end of the day its bourgious law and i would be surprised if anything will happen to this company.
>>2848711>what they are showing is impossible for an average person to acheiveOr very unlikely. I'm a regular user on the site, and it is possible to win money on it. But "mentions" markets can be a pure gamble. Like the scenario here, the price of a share that Trump says a certain word in a speech (there's usually a long list with different odds) drops to 1c because it's so unlikely and there's a minute left in the speech, and then he says it at the last second and it resolves at 100c per share, you would need to buy $100 of shares at 1c/share to make $10,000. But that's very, very unlikely to happen. There are real "degen" traders who play with hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars who do that as part of a strategy. They lose 100 times but then it pays off once. But those are crazy people who use mathematical formulas, like professional poker players (very similar and seems to transfer well), but that is not most people who would sign up, if they did that they'd just flush their money down the drain.
It's not as easy as they're trying to make it look. Also some influencer with a simulated account is saying they won $10k on something really unlikely but their other simulated trades have them down -$100k on their initial "investment." The host of that video is incorrect that they would be "in debt" though, because they're not leveraged markets. You can't get margin called or whatever where now you owe money (unless you were going into debt elsewhere and then taking cash and depositing it on Polymarket to gamble with).
Also these prediction market companies are hyping their products to Wall Street as highly "accurate" as forecasters. It's this pitch that the "market" can be more accurate at depicting the future than pollsters (in politics). This is the "value" that they're claiming to provide which will make this thing really profitable to investors in the future. It's pretty clever as a sleazy capitalist business thing, but if they were as accurate as they claim, the sharks wouldn't be as profitable as they are, because those guys are making money from mispriced odds. You make more money when the markets are WRONG. If we really had a crystal ball that could see the future, there wouldn't be any profitable opportunities there. Again, that's a contradiction because those fake influencers are like dayum I jusdt won $10k on Trump saying the word cheese, which was very unlikely, so the market wasn't "accurate" at predicting the future.
For example, the market really underrated Mamdani's chances and he won, which was highly profitable for those who bet on him. (Of course, Polymarket says if you think the markets are wrong, you should put money on it and get rich!) I think this kind of tends to reward people who are a little bit contrarian but not too much. Just last night the market was predicting that Darializa would lose until the actual election-day vote started coming in, and then the market flipped in a flash. But the traders were wrong. Then again most of the time the odds of a heavily favored candidate will be 75c-80c going into election night, and most of the time that's right and those candidates win. But sometimes it's the other way. So you have to have extremely disciplined risk management, and most people don't.
>but at the end of the day its bourgious law and i would be surprised if anything will happen to this company.It'll probably come down to politics yeah. Trump and his family are in cahoots with these people. There are Democrat-run states that want to regulate it, but the fed-run CFTC claims it's federal jurisdiction (probably true). Also there's a war behind the scenes between Kalshi and Polymarket, because Kalshi wants to monopolize the U.S. market and have the feds regulate Polymarket out of business. Also Kalshi has been cutting checks to Democratic campaigns like Xavier Becerra in California. Kalshi even kind of claims that they're more "moral" than Polymarket. It's crazy.
>>2848766In my country they started building factories only to hire export chinese laborers instead of hiring the locals. Like what the fuck is the point? Our resources are used by them(even the mines are owned by them), so they care hire themselves and sell us BYDs and make a profit. I dont see the benefits of this coming to us at all. Not that different from J.A. Hopson's analysis of Imperialism.
And of course the retarded lazy leftists in my nation (as well as the ones browsing /latam/) completely turn a blind eye because they're so used to eating shit from the west that they turn a blind eye or even encourage it because eating chinese manure is less humiliating than eating america's turd.

I'm glad that "anti-campists"(masturbating ideologues) have about the same power as so called "campists"(voyeuristic crisis perverts). Which is to say , none at all.
It's comforting, in a way, to know that since the communist left is utterly powerless everywhere and world events occur entirely out of it's reach, without so much of their word being heard… that no amount of useful idiots will obstruct the crises from proceeding. You can keep arguing from the cuck chairs of history, while the liberals tear each others throats and fertilize the ground for your successors, with the blood of billions of workers.

>>2849119>This is the exact same arguement the far right makes to defend historical imperialism.so? imperialism is historically progressive
>>2849119Do you understand the history of the British Empire? In particular in India? Without exaggeration, trillions of dollars in wealth stolen, and millions dead. Where has China done that? China is obviously benefiting from its relationships but it's not engaged in forceful wealth extraction, subjugation, and genocide.
>>2849236This is what we're gonna lose to if we don't get serious about Zionism and try to obfuscate the issue btw.
When average Americans see Israel ruining everything the response isn't "well erm akstually, something something imperialism, something something antisemitism", it's "yeah this sucks let's do XYZ". The former will push people towards whatever group is advocating doing something about Israel no matter how bad the rest of their politics might be.

So, clipping has become a big industry, with networks organizing on chat apps and forums to create and distribute. For reasons of profit of course, but couldn't we take their techniques and methods and use them to clip lefties? We have so much content to mine from, if you think about it. Might end up activating the almonds of some young people who could go either way.
I know a lot of others here don't really use social media, doubly so for short-form video, so setting up those accounts, learning the algo and general do's-and-don'ts will probably be the steepest hill to climb, but i'm sure it's doable.
vidrel is something i made a long time ago, and a more whimsical one, but this kind of thing is what i'm thinking, short, snappy, etc, you get the jist if you watch anything about clips industry.

>>2851241>why wont liberals ever shut up and die….Because at lowest, and assuming they're not bots

>>2851240Make a list of channels that you'd actually consider leftist and worth clipping for political purposes. Might just try it.
Clipping is the most automatable job possible, it literally takes one person with the right setup to make infinite clips. You can also add flair to them automatically, don't even need any LLM tools for that, it can run off of an old computer 100% locally for no cost other than electricity.

Because fascism, coached in brainrot and culture war bs, is the normie standard for the west.
>>2851797Is there any reason why Judaism shouldn't be criticized?
>>2851797I guess BadEmpanada is a showcase example of "based retard".
I support the fight he fights against Jewish exceptionalism but obviously after the Temple was destroyed and the diaspora began, there is no fixed theological interpretation that Palestine/Levant should be "the promised land" in a literal sense, a position most Orthodox Jews represent.
I guess Judaism has such a strong, exclusionary in-group is because it is basically a stunted version of Christianity and Islam. It didn't fully break with polytheism due to its origins in henotheism, where Yahwe was the patron god of the Jewish people, originally in a pantheon.
There are aspects of Judaism which are fucked up, as well as there are aspects of Christianity and Islam that are fucked. Jews just have that unqiue historical trajectories where they worship a "national god", were always a diaspora while at the same time mostly being a part of the most educated sections of society as a moderately wealthy middle strata. That explains their history which now found a reactionary expression in Zionism.

I really don't understand anti-Zionist Jews tbh. If you think books like Deuteronomy and Joshua are ordained by God why the hell is Zionism wrong
>>2852679because jew, like muslim, is an ethnic as well as a religious denomination depending on context. you can not believe in the torah or the quran and yet you will never stop being a jew or a muslim. especially in a white supremacist country like the USA.
furthermore there is a lot of variety within judaism and islam and christianity. many different sects with subtle differences and liberties.
>>2852679what the other guy said, jews are understood as an "ethnicity" rather than adherents to judaism, thus how Zionism can exist as a mostly secular ethnosupremacist ideology
Zionism exists because a jewish holy book is belligerent towards the other or something
>>2852679are you talking about ultra orthodox jews? because judaism doesnt just follow the books of the bible, the talmud also has rabbinical debates. the anti zionist sects believe it is not permissible to found a jewish state before the return of the messiah and by using force. there are also pro zionist religious jews who have a different interpretation.

>>2852679>I really don't understand anti-Zionist Jews tbhUnder specific circumstances it may be more (usually socially) rewarding to be anti-zionist. Hence why the state has to constantly express full institutional support for Zionism. And why liberal Zionists insist on directing criticism toward abstract or far away targets. If being a Zionist begins carrying negative consequences, more people, will go the other way.
Jews are special (and a minority, ironically) among Zionists, not for token reasons, mind you. But because the Jewish ethnostate needs a constant flow of settlers to keep replacing the natives with. Those settlers must be Jews. As well as to keep up the demographics more generally.
Upholding the Jewish majority gets tricky for Israel when anywhere around 10-20% of the population are dual citizens, from rich western countries, and susceptible to flight when things get spicy in the colony. Some solutions to this only make the problem bigger:
The Haredi breed madly faster than other Jews in Israel and while they do enthusiastically participate in settler colonialism, they reject military service. So in the end they drive the demand for soldiers up to solidify and manage the settler conquests. they are a problem more than a solution.
Importing (mostly NATO) Jews from migration supplements the birth rates. However due to the above, you are also growing this population of foreign weenies subject to fleeing and waiting abroad in their Zogged first world countries of origin when you most need them. And you would also need to compete with the living standards of their places of origin, mostly first world.
So Israel needs Jews to be comfortable with Zionism and Aliyah. That's why you have the apparent contradiction of permanently scaremongering about Zionism, while driving tensions and even doing glowops to encourage it. At the same time of giving infinite support to Zios and ridiculous protected status and privilege.
Israel needs both at once, it needs an absolutely secure, proud Zionist Jewish diaspora producing settlers for them and securing support from NATO. But they also need incentives for those people to migrate to Israel, and every bit of the stick you use is a carrot you don't have to pay with. This is a very delicate balance, so naturally, the powers that be want exclusive control of the knob of Jewish comfort with Zionism.
>>2852745 (me)
This is why Russia is so important to Israel btw. The RF provides as massive influx of Jews to Israel.
If Cucktin wanted to hurt the colony, he could just forbid migration.
>>2852803I'm not "blaming" anything, I'm not sorry your fandom ass worldview can't handle facts, either. I don't even want you to change it. Dogmatic retards are bound to be useful eventually.
But it remains a fact, the RF being one of the major sources of Jewish migration to Israel, after the USSR. They also have a powerful Israeli/Zionist "lobby". And despite all that, Israel favors the US in everything and is obviously working against RF interests all the time.
Another reason why Cucktin is a cuck. It is an understandable drive to keep things as stable as possible,ride out the crisis and come out ahead on the other side. However, Russia and China are uniquely positioned to do more for the workers of the world than survive the flailing at the end of US hegemony. So when they take the route of preserving capitalism past it's crises, it's not unexpected of them, but it's still lame.
>>2852894>That massive spike in 2022 for all Slavic countries Pretty dishonest framing desu
Would need to see '23, '24, '25, '26, and '27 data as well. I know for a fact that after 2023 a bunch of Belarusian Jews immediately decided Lukashenko was better than Netanyahu and went back to Belarus lol. Very convenient that the Israelis stopped counting after 2022 so that they didn't have to show the emigration outflow. More Jews are leaving than entering Israel now. Their population decline is being masked by Haredi families popping out 6 kids each.

We support IRCG and Hamas because they are the last line of defense from their people being enslaved or exterminated by insane rabbinic evangelicals not because based ummah bullshit. The ummah is also not based at all by the way they are bunch of petty merchants and weak virilists who folded to israel as their brother in allah are being litteraly turned to charred ground beef in Gaza. Median sentimental leftist in the west did more for Palestine than 90% of the ummah.
>>2853207>>2852679>>2852686I should also say, there are actually atheists who believe the Jewish Fairytales in that book are real. Then their are religious Jews who admit they're fairytales but still believe in Yahweh. That's kind of the default view of most Christians too, they selectively believe what is metaphorical and what is literal in the bible and readily admit many of the stories didn't literally happen, they're a fable to teach some lesson o algo. But pretty much everything in the old testament has no corroborating historical evidence. Like I said many believing Jews even will admit things like Abraham was not a real person, they were never in Egypt and so on.
>>2853207read it again retard. i said they don't just exclusively follow the bible because the original question implied jews only read the torah, so anti zionist jews dont make sense.
but i was pointing out that anti zionist jews get their justification from the talmud, because there's a much wider tradition in judaism than just the books of the bible.
>>2853215The Talmud says even crazier shit. What part of the Talmud is anti-zionist lmao.
The median Ummahgolem would litteraly sacrifice every single child in Gaza to Moloch so they can get gold coins which they will melt into an idol. Only Shiah, a tiny minority of muslims openly despised by other muslims, have showed any courage.
I think the islam as revolutionary ideology argument is so weak. Today it is mainly muslims resisting imperialism in the middle east, because they are the primary victims of it. The people resisting oppression are always gonna be mainly 1) direct victims of the oppression and 2) to a lesser extent people that have something in common with them (ideology, religion, ethnicity, culture, language, geopgraphy etc). At the same time, the majority of muslim/arab regimes are either doing nothing or directly working with imperialism. Even Iran only really put their money where their mouth after they were directly attacked, not after october 7th, and to our knowledge they didn't include any demands regarding Gaza in the MoU negotiations.
What was the revolutionary ummah doing when nicaraguan peasants were being tortured, raped and murdered by US backed death squads? Right, they indirectly funded the death squads by buying weapons under the table from Reagan lol
>>2853230Damn they ate good in ISIS
>>2853230Basically every faction in the Syrian Civil War had foreign fighters. Also foreign fighters were a factor in many regional wars. It was also a factor in chechnya.
>>2853238>Basically every faction in the Syrian Civil War had foreign fighters.And they were all ISIS tier lmao. And are the Chechnyan rebels supposed to be any better?
>>2853195Apparently the guy who made "Piss Christ" is also a Catholic. It was supposed to be some 200IQ move to show how muh Christianity is being commericialised and "Rabbi Yeshua pissed himself too while getting crucified!"

>>2852257Funny how he is acting like he's some prophet. Who takes this shit seriously? And why aren't jannies enforcing the Haz ban anymore?
>>2853266>He does have a point.Sure, but it doesn't matter. Even most godcucks don't care about their religion beyond some in-group bias bullshit.
>>2853262I bet he's just some kind nilhist who does whatever amuses or profits him at the moment. It doesn't necessarily have to be bad thing but it can lead to whatever this guy is.
>>2853227>I think the islam as revolutionary ideology argument is so weak.It's pretty weak. I think maybe people think it can be "revolutionary" in the popular sense of the word, like in carrying out regime change and implementing fairly radical change sort of sense, and it can do that. Islam can be a vehicle for anti-imperialism. But I just don't think it's Marxist in the ultimate final sense because Marxism is a fundamentally secular and materialist critique-machine that emerged from the Enlightenment so religion is a form of ideological displacement / alienation. Marxism and anti-imperialism are also not 1:1 the same thing even if they overlap.
Islamism is a common term that's used for Islamic political movements, and that basically means someone who believes the state and law should be based on sharia. How to square something so formally reactionary like that with Marxism is like, idk, man. Islamism is actually quite diverse in terms of how the state should be organized, but it's usually bound up in a belief that Arab or Muslim societies are failing because of some metaphysical claims rooted in sacred texts. Then you have a really concentrated version of it in militant Salafi Jihadist theocrats like ISIS, and those guys really premise their ideology on following what they claim to be a playbook from early Islamic history, like "our glorious predecessors did XYZ and became great, so we will become great if we copy what they did." They don't REALLY know exactly how early Islam worked though because the most anyone knows is based on historical interpretations, and their ideology doesn't actually solve what it claims to solve anyways because they're spooked out of their minds, so yeah.
>>2853230>Really, the only Muslim internationalism that's existed is shit like ISIS and this is what supposed lefty people are cheering for?It's just leftists converting to Islam or exploring it in some kind of way after experiences in Palestine adjacent organizing. Also some online people. I saw this guy who goes by the name @SwampCommunist who is a former Jewish agnostic who converted to Islam and he also thinks Syria is run by Zionists now ever since Assad fell, but there are a lot of Muslims in the region who are pro-Palestinian and pro-Jolani and they don't see that as contradictory.
>>2853255The entire point of Christianity is symbolic castration. Look at this lecture by Priest Fulton Sheen (start at 22:00 if you're impatient):
>Our God is better than yours because he was an underdog!Painfully charming.
>>2853213>>2853218TRVKE. Leftists of all people can't be falling for aesthetic religious bullshit. Co-religionists throw each other under the bus all the time for retarded ethnic supremacist and nationalist reasons. And this isn't exclusive to Moslems either.
>>2853270>@SwampCommunistHilarious person. Maoist they/them muslim convert.
>>2853271Sounds very similar to how some Buddhist and Jain sects behave. Ironically, they also tend to be the most Hitlerite. Unlike what hacks like Sam Harris say, these self-flagellating types tend to be violent schemers who enlist their equivalents of Shabbos goys to do their dirty work.
>>2853275Also people don't like New Atheists attacking people from their personal faith. Nobody likes the fat guy with the fedora being smug and shit. Probably the more Marxist direction to take it would not be towards people practicing religion but in critiquing Islamism as an ideologically regressive, reactive ideological formation that came about because revolutionary movements failed. It filled a need but it has a lot of problems.
The late Syrian Marxist Sadiq Jalal al-Azm had some interesting things to say. Attached an interview with him.
>>2853270>SwampCommunistCOAL ALERT!
>former Jewish agnostic who converted to IslamIdeology shopper on top of being a retard
>he also thinks Syria is run by Zionists now ever since Assad fellvery true
>a lot of Muslims in the region who are pro-Palestinian and pro-Jolani and they don't see that as contradictoryBecause they're retards who belong to some cucked American puppet country in the region. They deserve all the hate they get.
>>2853292>Because they're retards who belong to some cucked American puppet country in the region. They deserve all the hate they get.Anti-Assad and pro-Palestine is the mainstream, default position of sunni muslims (~90%). AoR style ideology is not very common,
>>2853298>AoR style ideology is not very commonThat's the problem. Moslems keep stacking L's because of their sectarian ethnic-supremacist bullshit, just like the rest of the turd world.
>>2853286shabbos disciples*
>>2853292>Because they're retards who belong to some cucked American puppet country in the region. I don't want to get into a fight about it, really emphasizing how many knots people will tie themselves up in this way. BTW something Sadiq said in that interview was that prominent Arab critics of secularism are a bunch of hypocrites, meanwhile in India the main defenders of secularism are Muslims because the Hindu nationalists want to turn India into a Hindu state. (Suddenly reminded of Zohran Mamdani who is an Indian Muslim, also his support base can be funny because there are Muslim guys who like him and then see him do something like this and are like WTF.) Sadiq anyways said, okay fine, if they don't like the word secularism then we can call it "civil government" (hukuma madaniyya). At any rate, secularism is a historic choice and Islam isn't that different from other major religions on the issue, just depends on what Muslims do.
His view was that "neotraditionalism" (neosalafiyya) or Islamic fundamentalism was also a reaction to the retreat of religion from public life. Traditional forces fought against colonialism and failed until the battles moved from the countryside to the cities, which was in itself an indication of the retreat of the role of religion. It was still there of course but it has lessened when you look at it over the long term. In fact the whole premise of Islamism is to restore something they feel has been lost in some kind of way, it is a reactionary movement in the historical sense of the term.
>>2853320Tbf, Indians will find any excuse to hate on Pakistanis.
>>2853329It's like the ancient version of retconning a franchise lol
>>2853324It has backfired in the past and will backfire again. Indians too will be targeted because the average rightoid Brit neither can nor cares enough to differentiate between Indians and Pakistanis.

Maybe if Piss Christ upsets you, it's because it gives some sense of what the crucifixion actually was like…I was born and raised a Catholic and I've been a Christian all my life."Muslims be like:

On top of basically stealing the country and diverting most of the revenues to the federal reserve.

The oil cargo’s value is estimated at between $120 and $135 million, depending on the quality and market fluctuations.And to top it off, they aren't even giving the money to the Venezuelan state. They are sending a third of it to fund christcuck reactionaries and the rest to an UN agency.

I'm asking because I recently got a letter published calling for "atheist propaganda" in communist publications, it could be me >>2852721>>2853400The idea of banning people from socialist orgs for being atheists is retarded; doubly so since Marx’s own bent was more towards atheism than theism.

>>2853420There’s been incalculable damage, I fear, to peoples political consciousness as the public shifts from primary sources to the mediation of those sources by grifters whose job requires making absurd claims like ”x IS y” to get views.

>>2853446That's always been the history of socialism since Marx lol. It's all very game of telephone. I think because it functions like a religion in that to be a part of the religion, you have to acknowledge the prophets as infallible, so then people just twist the words and expound endlessly on some vague statements. I guess constitutional law works the same way.

>>2853416>The idea of banning people from socialist orgs for being atheists is retardedHas anyone ever proposed this? If anything the debate is whether people should be banned from socialist orgs for being religious (something Lenin supported, and something that was de facto if not strictly de jure practiced in the CPSU as far as I can tell).
It doesn't seem like the "reddit atheists" complaint is directed at banning atheists from the party (good luck with that), rather that there should be a ban on promoting atheism in socialist publications and other diplomatic speech controls. Which again I disagree with. I'm not sure what the hell a "reddit" atheist is exactly but we should not censor our analysis to avoid hurting religious feelings.
Marx and Engels had the same view on atheist propaganda: "
in relation to the state (Engels' italics), religion is a purely private matter"; outside of the state, writing for the party press, communists should challenge religious thinking. For example, Engels' famous obituary of Marx: "the greatest living thinker ceased to think", having "peacefully gone to sleep - but forever".
>>2853463Based jail all porn addicts
>>2853547How about you stop being spooked by idiotic morality and let people enjoy things. Porn isn't as harmful as you think.
Moralists like you only think porn is harmful because you think any kind of sexual activity is shameful for spooked reasons.
Christians/Jews/Muslims are terrified of sexuality that isn't ashamed of itself.
